SummarySince the first sport duels, and with the development of sport through the ages, there were sport fans that cheered either for one or the other opponent and in that way they showed their sympathy. As the time passed, they organized themselves in fan groups, and they became not only an agent of socialization, but also a very important factor in directing social happenings. Hooliganism was created in modern society, and it had devastating effects on both sport and socially-political relations. The functioning of the fan groups that embraces hooliganism, demands high level of organization, so the modern media became a major tool of communication. The aim of this work is to determine in which way, not only the modern media but more importantly the internet sites and the social media of the fan groups, have been used for not only promoting and giving information about their actions, goals and attitude but also promotion of hooliganism.

RESUMO: Recente estudo sobre o nível microdiscursivo e o nível macrodiscursivo do gênero digital comentário, na rede social Facebook, comprovou que esse gênero é uma superestrutura discursiva. Pautado na análise de funções discursivas de Tedesco (2002) de expressões anafóricas diretas, foi possível constatar em sequências textuais do gênero digital comentário o fenômeno da intertextualidade, propriedade de coerência textual. A intertextualidade é uma propriedade reconhecida em hipertextos. No entanto, observa-se que abordagens sobre a intertextualidade em hipertextos, especificamente na Internet, são deficitários por não exemplificarem como a propriedade de coerência é desenvolvida em gêneros digitais. Neste sentido, o presente artigo tem o objetivo de discutir a intertextualidade e suas particularidades discursivas a partir das funções discursivas de expressões anafóricas diretas em textos verbais de comentários publicados em perfil público da jornalista Eliane Cantanhêde. As expressões anafóricas diretas apresentam significativa função coesiva em textos verbais, as quais são estratégias textuais e cognitivas que muito contribuem para a produção de sentidos do texto e, assim, refletem que a instabilidade dos objetos no uso da linguagem. Essa é uma abordagem fundamentada na Linguística Textual, a qual apresenta a concepção de língua com uma atividade de interação que pressupõe a existência do sujeito social. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: intertextualidade; funções anafóricas; gênero discursivo comentário; Facebook.   ABSTRACT: Recent study on the micro-discursive and the macro-discursive levels of the digital genre comment, on the social network Facebook, proved that this genre is a discursive superstructure. Based on the analysis of discursive functions of Tedesco (2002) of direct anaphoric expressions, it was possible to verify the intertextuality phenomenon in text sequences of the digital genre comment, property of textual coherence. Intertextuality is a property recognized in hypertexts. However, it is observed that approaches on intertextuality in hypertexts, specifically on the Internet, are deficient because they do not exemplify how coherence property is developed in digital genres. In this sense, this article aims at discussing intertextuality and its discursive particularities from the discursive functions of direct anaphoric expressions in verbal texts of comments published in the public profile of the journalist Eliane Cantanhêde. The direct anaphoric expressions present a significant cohesive function in verbal texts, which are textual and cognitive strategies that contribute much to the production of meanings of the text and thus reflect that the instability of objects in the use of language. This is an approach based on Textual Linguistics, which presents the concept of language with an interaction activity that presupposes the existence of the social subject. KEYWORDS: intertextuality; anaphoric functions; discursive genre comment; Facebook.

The social network as one of the digital technologies has not only creates a platform for communications, especially relevant during a pandemic, but also provokes the emergence of various types of deviant behavior, primarily due to the fact that many communicate on the Internet under fictitious names; it liberates a person, creates a feeling of impunity, control over the situation, etc. Recently, trash streams have become popular on the Web, but not funny and silly, but associated with violence, insult, humiliation of human dignity, causing a feeling of disgust and contrary to public morality. In December 2020, during such a live broadcast, another victim died, which launched a process in society to discuss the need to introduce criminal liability for such acts. The paper assesses the draft criminal law, as well as initiatives to supplement the list of aggravating circumstances and some corpus delicti with an appropriate qualifying feature, and formulates the author’s draft criminal law on responsibility for organizing, conducting, facilitating and participating in direct air in trash streams.

This paper discusses the characteristics and specific features of the Internet community ‘I love KVN’, whereas identifying user tokens in a network group are shown during their adaptation in the community. The author considers users’ techniques and virtual tools (audio recordings, video recordings, text publications, images, animated images, posters, polls, etc.). The Internet, as unique in terms of the its conditions and possibilities, makes it possible to study sociological phenomena that were not actualized or so accessible to empirical study in different environment of activity and interaction. This is relevant in the light of the rapid development of thematic communities on the VKontakte social network. According to the Levada Center analytical center, today about 72% of the population of the Russia use the Internet “daily or almost daily” and “several times a week”. At the same time, about 45% of citizens go online “several times a day”; these are, first of all, the youngest Russians under the age of 25 (87%). The focus of our consideration is the group on VKontakte “I love KVN”. KVN (The Club of Cheerful and Inventive) is one of the first projects that appeared on domestic television in the format of a humorous game, in which teams (educational institutions, universities, enterprises, cities and so on) compete in humorous answers to questions asked, improvisations on given topics, playing pre-prepared scenes. In the narrow sense, KVN is a competition in one’s own wit. The long-term history of the project (since 1961) and the relentless attention to the game from the mass audience determined in many respects the appearance of communities of lovers of intellectual humorous competitions on various types of venues. With the advent of social networks on the Internet, many KVN fans have joined together in a community that currently numbers approximately 670 thousand people.
