SUMMARY:

The hate speech in politics is investigated through a genealogy of hate constructed via an interdisciplinary theoretical framework that includes sociology, political science, philosophy, psychology, psychoanalysis, and communication. The goal is to characterize the ways in which hate speech is instrumentalized in politics. The corpus consists of publications from the Instagram profiles of Brazilian federal deputies Nikolas Ferreira and Erika Hilton, between February 2023 and March 2024. This material is used to identify hate speech messages, while examining the gender variable in the individuals who emit and are victims of hate speech. A literature review of books, scientific articles, and news from journalistic portals between February 2023 and March 2024 is part of this investigation. The concepts of hate are analyzed from an interdisciplinary perspective combining sociology, philosophy, and psychology. Other key concepts, such as the category of anger according to Peter Sloterdijk, hate speech as described by Judith Butler, and resentment according to Friedrich Nietzsche, are also examined. The development of the research will enable the integration of theoretical and empirical elements to construct a genealogy of hate, portraying hate speech as a tool for the virtual annihilation of others, targeting specific groups (such as Black people, women, and the LGBTQIAPN+ community, for example). The research will provide data that enables an understanding of hate speech in the democratic environment, its corrosive potential for democracy, and the creation of public policies to address this practice.
