Religion and Politics

I'm talking about Christian values, combating corruption, combating criminal factions, and combating the PT (Workers' Party).

I'd really like to be able to say a big "fuck it" to that and that nobody depends on others' acceptance to be who they are. But a drop in acceptance of homosexuality turns into an increase in LGBTQIA+ young people being kicked out of their homes. It turns into hate speech on social media. It turns into death on the streets. And this decline is not natural. It is built by many hands. It is the result of the work of far-right politicians, fundamentalist pastors and priests, and the insatiable thirst for profit of the big techs. And, yes, this drop in acceptance of homosexuality is also the product of the cowardice of those who, two years ago, wouldn't miss a Pride Day to gain engagement off our community and now fall silent about our existences. Including left-wing politicians. No right is guaranteed. Our mobilization needs to be permanent and the struggle must be daily. Our community cannot think we've already "arrived." We cannot falter. And to the "right-wing gays" who are proposing to exclude bisexual, trans and travesti people and even lesbian women to be accepted, there's still time to wake up. Acceptance is not built by proposing exclusion. You're only postponing the moment when the target of hatred will be stamped on your foreheads.

I consider it absurd and most Brazilians feel the same way.

This clearly shows that Brazil is experiencing, it's not only a government crisis, no, it's also experiencing a spiritual, moral crisis, a president who has no consideration whatsoever for the values that Brazilians hold most dear, which are matters of religion, of God, of family, very, very clear.

that the president showed no consideration by presenting himself as a god, cultivating a cult of personality, which is exactly what we know socialists like to do most.

The only thing missing is for him to replace the Christ the Redeemer statue and put one of himself there now, like North Korea does, like Cuba has already done with some figures.

And this cult is very bad.

We must worship Christian values, we must honor the family, and not a president who keeps acting snobbishly, making light of what Brazilians prize most.
