Hundreds of Brazilians, expatriates, tourists and activists gathered in a square near the Brazilian Embassy in Berlin, on Sunday (21), to protest against the Armage PEC and the amnesty project to the sentenced by January 8. , social groups active in Germany organized the act on social networks, with an undeniable rhythm of carnival.
With flags, a charanga, the word of orders and many profanity were heard each time the small speaker took the name of the preferred targets of the demonstration: Jair and, mayor, and even the US chairman responsible for the tariff against Brazil.
Sandra Helena Torres Bello, one of the organizers, 28 years ago in Germany, interrupted the protest after a scream of “son of the bitch.” “Let’s remember here the formation of our patriarchal society, in which most profanity originates in the disregard for women. Whoever had been a brothel,” he said, pulling a lot of applause from the small crowd, part of it with beer bottles in one of the last warm afternoons of the German summer.
Declaring himself a “suprapartisan leadership,” Sandra Helena stated that the mobilization was necessary. “How does half a dozen deputies give themselves the right to protect the country? We need to organize ourselves,” said the activist, who believes she has gathered 40 groups related to Brazilians in Germany.
One of them was the green and white samba drums, which made a double journey: in the morning, he had already excited an excerpt from the Berlin Marathon route, with 55,000 corridors and 25,000 participants in wheelchairs, handbikes and skates.
“Democracy is the exercise of tolerance, but it is time for us to use intolerance against Eduardo Bolsonaro. Destabilizing his life on Disney,” another social movement leader, Nilza Bezerra, said in the microphone. With a hard and pessimistic speech, he was celebrated when he described that the son of “is sitting on Donald Trump’s lap” while Brazil bitter 50% of tariffs in part of its exports.
After the Bolsonaro family, Hugo Motta, unanimously called Berlin of Banditage PEC, was one of the most criticized. “It is absurd what is happening in Brazil. We need to manifest,” said a IT technician, 7 years ago in Germany, who asked not to be identified by the report.
With his wife and son, he protested with makeshift posters from pizza boxes. “The rise of the far right is a worldwide phenomenon,” he said, a perception shared with Sandra Helena. “See Germany, AFD [partido classificado de extrema direita pelos serviços de segurança do país] .”
Ana Andrade, militant of popular unity by socialism, stated that popular mobilization is the only alternative left on the left and social movements. “Social networks were dominated by the far right, and the algorithm works exclusively for them. We have no chance there. We only have the mouth to the door, the door and go to the streets.”
