Abstract

: This essay has as objective to problematize contemporary tendencies which see in internet the possibility of construction of social bonds where difference doesn’t play a central role. It is precisely the image of a “virtual subject” existing outside the discourse or specific social positionalities that is intended to be problematized, at the same it will be demonstrated that the power/knowledge relations from “outside” the virtual are also present here, forging subjects and establishing ways to deal with the otherness. In order to do that, it was analyzed the colonial discourse, indentifying its presence in the internet and its forms of enunciation. The situation analyzed here is a meme, related to the attitudes of Brazilians in video-games. It was chosen the perspectives offered by postcolonial and decolonial authors in order to analyze this question.
