ABSTRACT
This work begins with the rise and visibility of sexist violence due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico. In this context, it focuses on the study of relationships during confinement, proposing that cyber violence and anti-feminism grow in a digital university. This scenario is confronted with the current gender order, referring to the recent activism of young feminists and to the debates resulting from the discussion on masculinities, pointing to new subjectivities within a masculinist extreme. With this, an acceleration of such radicalism is theorized, looking at issues such as the "manosphere", the replication of their affects in digital interactions of university students, and the exercise of a tropology based on communication through memes, which forms particular rhetoric. Finally, memes posted by students in groups within this sphere and in the pandemic are analyzed.
