This article aims to analyze how users of online social networks, organized in two different collectives, reacted to the pandemic context, identifying their forms of interaction and investigating how relationships on digital platforms, especially on Facebook, can influence individual and collective behaviors. From the methodological frameworks of content analysis and in depth hermeneutics, two female groups with an expressive performancein the current political scenario were analyzed: “Women United Against Bolsonaro” and “Women of the Right United for Brazil”. The results obtained show the polarization in the positions regarding the pandemic coping measures and the significant presence of misinformation among the shared contents, that is, the sieve of the groups' positioning was more due to the political-partisan bias than to reliable scientific-institutional sources.
