  1. Natuurlijk komt Kat aanzetten met Braziliaanse video’s, waar hij natuurlijk zelf geen woord van verstaat, om te verbloemen wat er werkelijk speelt. Bolsonaro heeft de tweet van twee dronken figuren tijdens carnaval niet voor niets verstuurd.

    Mr. Bolsonaro’s tweet may have rendered the entire country speechless, but his motives were clear enough. First, he was seeking to demonize Brazil’s L.G.B.T. community, a marginalized population that has occupied his thoughts and rhetoric since he first emerged as a firebrand of the ultraconservative right. (In 2011, he infamously told Playboy magazine he’d rather his son die in an accident than be gay.) Now that he is president, this same community has found itself in his administration’s cross hairs.

    But second, Mr. Bolsonaro was clearly smarting at the way this year’s celebrations had morphed into protests against his presidency and what it stands for. Tweeting out the video, which was eventually sourced to a block party that took place in São Paulo on Monday, was, it seems, a mystifying form of retaliation.
