USOS E APROPRIAÇÕES DA OBRA 1984 NA CONSTRUÇÃO DO DISCURSO DESINFORMATIVO DA BRASIL PARALELO
Abstract
This article analyzes how the production company Brasil Paralelo appropriates George Orwell's 1984 to legitimize and construct its disinformation discourse. Using Audiostructural Podcast Analysis (AAP), the study examines podcast episodes produced between 2022 and 2026, highlighting the program "Ministério da Verdade". The theoretical framework articulates Gisèle Sapiro's Sociology of reception with sociological studies on systemic disinformation, platformization, and the emptying of time and space perception in modernity. Results demonstrate that the company subverts Orwellian constructs—such as "Ministry of Truth," "Newspeak," and "Doublethink"—through anachronistic and supra-historical readings. The study concludes that this metalinguistic strategy aims to discredit traditional media and academic institutions, fostering historical revisionism and a "cultural war" to consolidate a reactionary media ecosystem for political and economic gain.
