I need a Hulk in a lawless society.

This Thursday (14) marked 365 days since a Rio de Janeiro parliamentarian suffered a brutal attack in Rio de Janeiro along with her driver – Anderson – two lives taken. And by a matter of just one day in the chronology of the event – ​​the month of March, on its thirteenth day of the current year, yesterday, witnessed the brutal murder of eight people inside a school, who died at the hands of two shooters driven by hatred, in Suzano, São Paulo.

Facts like these demonstrate that there are negative forces that can subjugate an entire community. And regardless of one's political affiliation, this is worrying in terms of overall survival.

Statistics show extreme murder rates in the state of Rio de Janeiro, in particular. Around 7.000 deaths occurred in 2018. Within this percentage are the names of councilwoman Marielle Franco and Anderson Gomes. Mourning is a funereal state that reveres the deceased, with an intensity that reverberates for a time.

Losing a loved one is terrifying and traumatizing, and psychologists and similar professionals provide support to the bereaved; whether it's due to natural causes, age, or illness, losing a loved one is painful and causes bewilderment; even though the human species has a biological awareness that the event is intrinsic to the life process – it still cannot accept it naturally.

And in an unnatural, or supernatural, way, means and ends are sought to understand and justify finitude. Eternity is a term that means "without end" or "time without end"; philosophy has the mission of delving into these concepts, as a redeemer.

Up to a certain point in hominid existence, these original representatives of a pseudo-human species did not understand what "the feeling of grief" was and went their separate ways when a member of the group became ill or died. Homo neanderthalensis was a pioneer in terms of funerals, and from then on we sought to be traditional in terms of weddling.

Living is a daily exercise in adapting to literal and metaphorical hardships. Adapting to parents, country, work, leisure, the political model, or the shooter of the moment, is highly stressful; that is, the hormone adrenaline constantly resurfaces, making the heart race, through the perception of the most varied external stimuli. And this hormonal manifestation can often lead an individual to death, due to the excess produced in the blood.

Life that becomes news through death, and especially through political and social death, authenticates a LAWLESS SOCIETY; with the power to reform the way each person thinks. A monk, a nun, a pastor, a girl, a boy, a priest, can all be influenced by adrenaline if stimulated.

When someone plans the death of their neighbor: Did they plan this action in the short or long term? Our phylogeny didn't begin with Homo sapiens; it passed through other levels of phylogenetic experimentation – Adrenaline emerged as an emergency factor when language didn't even exist: I NEED A HULK! since this hero or savior, biochemically amalgamated, ROARS for legitimacy, leaping from the comic books; arising from the mind of a creative creature with a thirst for justice.

I NEED A HULK, because my modern, upside-down nationalist society is a lawless land; it destroys everything, forgets everything, and tries to erase from HISTORY the dead victims of its typical lust for a Fourth Industrial Revolution and its "enlightened" development inversely proportional to agape love, unfortunately.
