"One of the penalties for refusing
to participate in politics is that you end up
being governed by your inferiors".
Plato — Platón.
Needless to say what a dictatorship means.
Brazil is going back to be a country under a dictatorship with this current president Bolsonaro, a man who was unfortunately elected by the majority of the people in a real democracy.
But democracy is seriously threatened by this totally antidemocratic, far-right and ultranationalist man.
This week, on the 4th of May he once again took part in an antidemocratic act in Brasilia, DF, in favor of the closure of the Parliament and the Supreme Court in Brazil.
A few days ago he also participated in another antidemocratic act claiming for the back of the AI-5, (Institutional Act number five).
Politically speaking it would be the same if Angela Merkel had took part in any act claiming for the return of Nazism in Germany.
Or Pedro Sánchez standing up for the Franquismo in Spain and the Italian and Portuguese Prime Minister doing the same for fascism in Italy and Salazar in Portugal. (48 years of dictatorship)
The most awful and awkward situation is that the Parliament has not voted for his impeachment yet.
That´s more than enough.
Yesterday, May 04, the Press, Journalists, photographers, camera-men, were cowardly assaulted in an all-out attack while they were working at this political event.
It was a coward and a violent crime against the Press and against Democracy.
It´s really hard to believe that crazy and far-right ultranationalist people are running for something in politics and can get the power.
It´s really hard to believe that the World hasn't changed after the World War II and more crazy people still vote for this.
