Mediatization, polarization, and intolerance (between environments, media, and circulation)

Trajectories of coronavirus and interpenetrations of social discourses 217 announced his refusal to the request for interaction but enunci- ated in an injunctive manner his non-fulfillment, by ordering the woman to leave the interactional framework that she tried. “If you wanted to speak, get out of here because you were heard.
