Abstract
Through interactivity, community formation and ideological influence, social media have become a unique space for political participation. Thus, this article aims to analyze the relationship between the dissemination of information about unethical policy on social media and the reactions of their users. Through category analysis and descriptive statistics were analyzed 2,517 comments in 57 posts of five Brazilian political parties with the largest number of followers on Facebook. The results indicate the existence of five post categories and 20 post subcategories of political parties. The comments showed three important elements: ideological reasons, aggression and mood. It was observed that there is no reciprocity in the interaction between political parties and users and that the use of Facebook is just a tool used for sending messages.
