President Jair Bolsonaro’s platform in Brazil during the celebration of the bicentennial of Brazil’s Independence is a portrait of his political isolation and abduction of a national history that should belong to all citizens regardless of political orientation.
The heads of other powers simply jumped out. The heads of the STF, Senate, Luiz Fux, Rodrigo Pacheco and Chamber, Arthur Lira, were not present. Portuguese President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa remained silent most of the time, with a serious and embarrassed face.
In an earlier meeting with ministers, businessmen and relatives, Bolsonaro once again contradicted his false predictions that the press would receive a moderate tone. The day had just begun, and the president had already begun sending one of his coup threats.
During a coffee in the Palácio da Alvorada, Bolsonaro said: “I wanted to say that Brazil has been through tough times, but had good times at 22, 35, 64, 16, 18 and now 22. History can repeat itself, the good always get over it. bad. We are here because we believe in our people and because our people believe in God”.
This coup statement, which is considered a crime once again because it is unconstitutional, deserves to be examined in detail.
The dates cited referred to the Tenentista Revolt (1922), a movement of middle and low-ranking Armed Forces officers against the Old Republic oligarchies, and the Communist Intentona (1935), a left-wing military insurgency against Getúlio Vargas (leader). 1930 Revolution). Bolsonaro also spoke of the 1964 military coup that ended democracy for 21 years, torturing, killing and imprisoning dissidents. Other dates were 2016, the parliamentary coup that resulted in Dilma’s dismissal, and 2018, the year of the far-right’s rise to power with the determined support of Lava Jato. Finally, he talked about the 2022 presidential election, which Bolsonaro is on the verge of losing.
When Bolsonaro says that “history may repeat itself”, he threatens the survival of Brazilian democracy with another blow by the military, which at different times in history intervened to break Brazil’s institutional normality. To say that “good always conquers evil” is a lie, as 1964 showed, Bolsonaro is evil. An evil that has been hovering over Brazil since January 1, 2019, worsening the economy, the epidemic, public policies and institutions.
The phrase “we are here because we believe in our people and because our people believe in God” is the pure juice of the President’s religious hypocrisy, who is trying to get a messianic look by exploiting the faith of the majority of the people. population of the country.
On September 7, there will be speeches of the President again. We can only expect Bolsonaro to continue to wreak havoc on the country at events planned in Brasília, São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. In these actions there is only the presence of Bolsonaro supporters who missed a national date to hold election rallies. Make no mistake about the current generation of Brazil: the civilizing mission of the Bicentennial of Independence is to remove fascism from power.
