The parity-violating quasielastic electron scattering response is explored within the context of a model that builds antisymmetrized random phase approximation and Hartree-Fock correlations on a relativistic Fermi gas basis. Particular emphasis is put on the weak-neutral longitudinal response function, since this observable displays a strong sensitivity to isospin correlations: specifically, it is shown how, through a diagrammatic cancellation/filtration mechanism, this response acts as a magnifier of pionic correlations in the nuclear medium. The parity-violating longitudinal response function also displays appreciable sensitivity to the electric strangeness content of the nucleon, thus making quasielastic electron scattering a possible candidate to measure the nucleon electric strange form factor at relatively high momentum transfers. Finally, we discuss how observables, related to the asymmetry, can be constructed to disentangle the nuclear and nucleonic effects.
