In, Joel Pinheiro da Fonseca wrote in this Sheeton March 2nd, who is not a scammer; which equates him to those who criticize ministers for their actions in the ; and that Bolsonarist hegemony within the Brazilian right is an unavoidable fact, to which all the traditional right can do is adapt.
No, Joel.
Flávio Bolsonaro’s candidacy was never inevitable. It exists because the strategy of the Brazilian right over the last three years, the moderation of Bolsonarism, has failed. You explicitly defended it in the column. It went wrong. You burned the right-wing governors, who subjected themselves to Jair’s worst perversions to get support that never came.
Now that moderate Bolsonarism has not appeared, there is no point in those who you yourself recognized as coup plotters three months ago.
After all, if Flávio really is a Democrat, you and the “moderate Bolsonaro” people owe him an apology. They never mentioned the senator’s name among moderate Bolsonarists. Flávio was part of the group in comparison to whom his supposed moderation was exalted. How did you ignore this Tancredo Neves from Rio das Pedras, Joel?
But Flávio is a scammer. who attempted the coup in 2022. In , he said that, if he considers the amnesty unconstitutional, he will carry out a coup. He enthusiastically supported the tariff, the first attempt by a Brazilian political faction to take power through direct intervention by a foreign power in our history. He has even declared that he would love to have Eduardo Bolsonaro, the organizer of the tariffs, as chancellor.
Flávio and his gang have been trying to impeach STF ministers since long before the Master, Joel case. They want to do so as revenge against the court’s role in defending democracy and as a warning to any other minister who stands against the next coup offensive.
It is a completely different stance, I believe, from that of Senator Alessandro Vieira (MDB-SE), who criticizes the STF for the promiscuity of ministers with business interests.
The distinction becomes even clearer when one realizes the obvious: until now, at least (this could change), the overwhelming majority of those involved in the Master case come from the right, including the coup right. All the big right-wing parties are in deep trouble.
Representative Filipe Barros (PL-PR), for example, asked for article 142 in Congress on November 30, 2022. Since no one arrested him for this, he took the opportunity to present a project increasing FGC coverage to R$1 million for anyone who lost money in scams like .
The ongoing fraud is as follows: blurring the line between Bolsonarist criticism and Republican criticism of the STF, while at the same time hiding from the public the information that almost everyone involved in the Master scandal is right-wing. It is the opening to justify the traditional right’s support for Flávio’s candidacy.
Don’t get into it, Joel.
