a wereman is a genderfluid person who becomes a man when the full moon's out
Ah yes, that's typical Paraná ahaha
Like I said in my other post, I know literally zero Latin American Catholics who hate the Pope. Not a single one. It's literally only American adult convert tradcaths who get fucking weird about this sort of shit lol
Dude, I always wonder why the fuck it is that American Christians, especially adult converts, are so fucking weird about it. In Brazil and Latin America as a whole you're kind of born Christian by default and pretty much everybody I know in my generation has been baptized as a Catholic as a child, myself included.
Devout Latin American Catholics are some of the most unassuming people you'll ever meet. They'll go to church regularly, pray at home, maybe they'll have some kind of jewelry with a cross, and images of saints at home, but they generally don't talk about it. Evangelicals do have a certain tendency to be more annoying and vocal at times, but still, most of them are chill about it.
So why the fuck is it that Americans seem to be the only ones discussing the Council of Trent and theological theses and calling themselves tradcath or some other bullshit so often? It's like they have no other social signifiers and are desperately grasping for any sort of identity, so they latch on to the weirdest forms of Christianity and do not shut up about it.
no way, this has to be fake lol

When you scramble this many ghouls to check every single detail of a person's life history, you can make even the most well-adjusted person seem like a complete fringe lunatic. This is a concerted effort to make this guy seem as deranged as possible, just a wild crazy man, or a poor victim of online radicalization, depending on what tone you want for your think piece.
You can turn the ultimate protest into a cautionary tale about the seductive rhetoric of the violent online left or a mental health awareness month-style unheard cry for help.
Yeah this fucking sucks but I can't say I'm surprised.
A couple of months ago he went on an interview and just completely lost his shit, hearing voices and talking absolute nonsense... there was a lot of talk on twitter about how he had just lost the election right there and then, surely it would not be possible to recover from such a disastrous public appearance...
I remember laughing in Brazilian back then, doing my best impression of the "first time?" meme, wondering if people have not been paying attention at all for the past five years. The same "silver bullet" kind of moment happened over and over and over again with Bolsonaro (and Trump for that matter), and guess what? Nothing fucking happens. These right wing lunatics can shit themselves live on TV however much they want, nothing's going to dissuade their voters.
And I think there's a reason for that: nothing makes fucking sense anymore. People just want change, they just want to fix this "nameless" despair, this emptiness and lack of purpose and hope. People intuitively understand that neoliberalism has nothing to offer except for abject failure and slow but certain decay, unless you're rich. The thing is, they don't know what to call it. Half a century of propaganda as well as an education completely unconcerned with a critical, materialist assessment of history has made it all but impossible to even begin to understand what's going wrong with the world.
The left is under constant surveillance and is browbeaten back into hiding every time it grows strong or even tries to. The right has no such limitations, and has the freedom to come out and "explain" to the people their own twisted version of reality. An exploited, uninformed, desperate, frustrated and angry working class believes that explanation, after all they have nobody else to explain things.
I'm certainly oversimplifying things, but I think that's the reason why I very often see stuff like delivery guys riding motorcycles adorned with "God, Nation and Family"-style fash stickers. It's the only way I can see the most exploited sympathizing with the exploiter and voting for the people who openly say that the exploiter should exploit more.
I'm very afraid of what comes next for the Palestinian people, but regardless of what happens next, Israel has been dealt a fucking incredible blow to its international reputation. This is a country whose main export is highly sophisticated systems of oppression. If you have a nagging problem with some pesky minority, Israel is your "consultant" of choice.
Now here we are, watching as some of the most violently oppressed, downtrodden people in the entire world do deftly orchestrated commando raids on lawnmower engine powered paragliders, surprising literally the entire world. They have been training to do this under Israel's watch for god knows how long, and the IDF was none the wiser. How did they pull this off?
How can you still claim to develop the most sophisticated surveillance systems and to have the best-trained military in the world, when shit like this happens? How do you even recover from this? This is unprecedented, a paradigm shift, we're watching history in the making here.
Absolutely uncritical support for the heroic Palestinian efforts.
I think it's kind of adorable, like a writer with good intentions but who's kinda naive to discourse and still figuring things out lol
