Mapas na Internet. Cartografias Virais. Rede Social. Notícias Falsas.Abstract
A Internet e as mídias sociais têm contribuído consideravelmente para a circulação e a difusão aceleradas de informações. Notícias sobre pessoas, coisas e eventos frequentemente se espalham rápido sem a verificação de sua veracidade e abrem espaço para informações falsas e “fatos alternativos”. Isso também se refere a mapas que são postados em plataformas como Twitter, Facebook e Instagram e que constantemente chamam a atenção dos usuários e provocam reações. Nesse contexto, o objetivo deste artigo é discutir mapas postados na Internet em tempos de pós-verdade e à luz de uma leitura crítica da realidade. O artigo discute as características dessas cartografias virais e mapas falsos e analisa os mapas carregados e divulgados por plataformas on-line relacionadas com a cartografia. Esses exemplos mostram a reatividade dos mapas como argumentos e formas de criar mundos que vão muito além da mera representação gráfica de um tema ou fato e que se fundem com visões de mundo políticas, valores morais e preconceitos culturais, exigindo novas metodologias para o estudo de mapas.
