Everyone needs to understand whats going on in Brazil right now
As you might know, the presidential election is happening here. But you don’t understand how serious and dangereous these times are. Theres very high chances that a man named Bolsonaro will win. He is openly FASCIST, and has said that he supports another dictatorship happening.
He is openly anti-lgbt, has said many violent things about gays, including that if parents BEAT their children, they could be “cured from homosexuality”.
He is openly racist, has said that their sons will never date a black woman because their were “raised correctly”, and many other things.
He is openly misogynistic, in an argument with a congresswoman, he said that he wouldn’t RAPE her because she did not DESERVE it.
All of these things were filmed. He has said many other dispicable things. His followers are violent: the election is not even over yet but many groups of his supporters are already harrasing minorities on the streets.
As a lesbian woman, i am scared. I am scared for my life. I am scared for my lgbt friends. I am scared for all of the minorities in Brazil, and all people who are going to die. LGBTs are already killed daily. Black people are killed daily. Women are beaten and raped. These are dark times, and we need support.
Signal Boost!
As a Brazilian woman, this is 100% true. We are in for really scary times. I felt for Americans when Trump was elected, and little did I know the exact same thing would happen to us.
Did you know that about 90% of the world’s nutrition such as fruits, nuts, and vegetables are pollinated by bees? Without the bees to pollinate our crops we will be a on shortage of food! In fact, there are more than 150 different chemical residues found in bee pollen, and the chemical industry have spent millions of dollars trying to cover up that they are not at fault. Since more grasslands and forests are converted into pesticide contaminated mono-culture-farms, bee colonies per hectare and habitat are rapidly shrinking every year.
You can help spread awareness and save the bees by donating to Greenpeace or purchasing these honeycomb necklaces where a part of the proceeds go directly to Greenpeace.
