Days before suffering attacks during a hearing at the Senate Infrastructure Commission, Environment Minister Marina Silva commented ContilNet as deals with criticism and aggression. With tranquility, she shared a deep reflection, citing psychoanalyst Ricardo Goldenberg:
“We do not reveal what we are for what we say it is. Not what the other says we are. We really reveal what we are when it speaks of the other,” said the minister.

For Marina, attacks of a personal nature, motivated by prejudices such as racism, misogyny and machismo, say more about who utters them than who receives them. She argues that political and ideological differences should occur with respect, especially in environments such as Acre, where human relations are close and intertwined.
Stay inside:
“Here we know everyone. I said this even to a politician in my state: we can diverge, but we should diverge respectfully. I don’t know whom my grandson will get married tomorrow, who will be neighbor of whom.”
Even in the face of public provocations and embarrassment-such as the cutting of his microphone by the president of the session, Senator Marcos Rogério (PL-RO), the offensive speech “puts in his place, as well as statements by Senator Plínio Valério (PSDB-AM), who said it was necessary to“ separate the woman from the minister ”-Marina remained firm and avoided retreating with aggressiveness.

“To the face of hatred, love. For the face of lies, the truth. For the face of laziness, work. And to the face of grudge, forgiveness,” he concluded.
Marina also told a situation she faced inside the plane, on her way to Acre, where a woman even insulted her.
The minister’s stance generated debates on social networks and the political scene itself, dividing opinions between both government and opposition allies. Recognized worldwide for its history of environmental overcoming and activism, Marina Silva is still the target of attempts to disbelief, even though she is one of the most relevant voices in sustainability guidelines.
