Resumen

El estudio de los acontecimientos político-mediáticos en las redes sociales es un fenómeno global de particular interés para la antropología, la sociología y los estudios de la comunicación. A partir de un análisis socio-semántico de las micro-argumentaciones de los internautas chinos en Weibo durante el incidente de Lionel Messi en febrero de 2024, se exploran las categorías discursivas utilizadas y las características socio-culturales de los sectores involucrados, particularmente los grupos congruentes (aficionados) y disonantes (nacionalistas). Se observan patrones comunes respecto a las motivaciones de pertenencia grupal, reconfiguración identitaria de los sujetos-aficionados y tensiones intersubjetivas en los espacios de afición al deporte internacional en China.
