Based on Karl Mannheim’s writings on different styles of thoughts in the first half of the 19th century and on how they constitute generational units within the same generational connection, this article focuses on the study of conservative youth groups on Facebook. The purpose is to understand why groups of young people publicly announce, in a virtual environment, a cultural heritage related to a conservative way of thinking. The analysis of conservative youth groups on the internet unveils a diffuse appropriation of the concept of conservatism, but also clear strategies of polarization vis-à-vis other groups and styles of thinking. Seeing themselves as cultural heirs of conservatism, they take on what they perceive to be a responsibility of transforming Brazilian society towards a conservative matrix.
