André Ventura, Pedro Pinto and Rita Matias (arrives)
“Welcome to the admirable Mundo Novo, where the center is violence, it is antagonism, it is confrontation.” Serious warnings of Pacheco Pereira.
It is one of the subjects of the moment in Portuguese politics, and in the country in general: André Ventura wanted to show in the Assembly of the Republic that there are children with names of other origins (especially Arabs) in a school in Lisbon. The names of some children and shot: “They are zero Portuguese!”.
The left was exalted, Eva Cruzeiro (PS) rose to protest, Isabel Mendes Lopes (free) began to cry.
Was any border outdated right now? “Welcome to this admirable new world”begins by answering José Pacheco Pereira.
The former deputy considers that this “New World” has as “center to violence, o antagonism, a confrontation” – While listening to “that’s it,” said repeatedly by Alexandra Leitão, in the same program.
And it’s a cultural issue, The historian warned: “It’s not just social or political conflict.”
Returning to the specific case of the list of names evoked by André Ventura, Pacheco Pereira left a suggestion: “Take the list of arrival deputies, go to genealogy websites and, in two or three generations, They find names of Semitic, Jewish origin… I already leave Italians outside or other names. ”
“And make a reading of these names, as the children’s names were read. There will be a lot of surprise With the names that appear there, ”he continues.
Pacheco Pereira adds: “Perhaps this helps them realize that these things always have two sides, both terrible: stigmatize Those in the past, you can better realize how you can stigmatize those of the present. ”
“It’s a shame!”he said, using a repeated expression numerous times
And the players of Benfica?
This expression was also used in, here with humor. THE Portugalex speaks in the “show” given by André Ventura in Parliament.
And by simulating the voice of André Ventura, he hears: “And more, and hear this list only: Vangelis Pavlidis, Nicolás Otamendi, Orkun Kökçü, Gianluca Presentianni, Kerem Aktürkoğlu, Trubin. They are all in a Portuguese football club! – A reference to several Benfica players.
Returning to Pacheco Pereira: “But we have to look at this world with great lucidity, because It is a cruel world, without rights, without values… And a lot of these people say Catholic, Apostolic, Roman? It is a hypocrisy Gigantic, none of this corresponds to the position of the Catholic Church. These are Catholics of the package. They are hypocritical Catholics. When they go to Mass and pray for the ancestors, remind them that hypocrisy, lies, lack of empathy and human sympathy is not only a crime, but also mortal sin. ”
