Jean Willys and the proud barbarity

"Our flag will never be red."

This is one of the slogans, and one of the most stupid among so many stupidities, shouted by the Bolsonaro horde that flexes its muscles on social media.

Red, which is our color, the symbolic color of the struggle of peoples for their rights, is also the color of the blood that runs in our veins.

It is the color of the blood of Marielle, and of her driver, Anderson, whose blood was spilled by militiamen.

It is the color of Jean Willys' blood, it is the color of the blood of all human beings.

It's the color of our blood.

With the rise of fascism in Brazil, some people have embraced their inhumanity and are no longer ashamed to openly display it.

I dare say that there is no blood flowing in the veins of these people.

Jean Wyllys would most likely be the next to have his blood spilled, because of his fight in defense of minority rights.

The president-elect, in his campaign speech, said that "minorities would have to bow down to the majorities."

An extremely hateful speech, at a time when a minimum of reasonableness would be appropriate.

But what did he really mean by "to bow down"?

Could this be an allusion to physical elimination, in the form of murder?

It is more than proven that his family, the Bolsonaro family, is involved with militiamen, hired assassins who extort the poorest people through blackmail and brute force.

There are countless cases of murders committed by militiamen.

On August 12, 2011, Judge Patricia Acioli, who was a strong activist against militias, was assassinated by rifle fire inside her car as she was returning from work.

Data from the Public Security Secretariat indicates that militia members are involved in 80% of the murders that occur in Rio de Janeiro.

In that state, one in three homicide cases bears the fingerprints of militiamen.

It is this monstrous criminal organization that has chosen Jean Willys as its number one enemy.

It is this monstrous criminal organization that swore to kill him.

"Our flag will never be red," shout the brainless individuals celebrating the exile of the parliamentarian elected by popular vote.

People who don't want the green and yellow flag to be red, but rejoice at the possibility of staining Brazilian soil with the red of Jean Willys' blood.

Jean Willys was right to go into exile, preserving his life.

We, who never wanted to see the Brazilian flag stained red, also do not want to see newspaper headlines stained with the red of the blood of the combative and valiant parliamentarian.

The balance of power is unequal.

While Jean uses republican weapons to fight a good fight, the barbarism that has taken hold in the Planalto Palace uses the most sordid, base, and vile tactics.

The celebration posted by the president-elect on his Twitter account is more than just a signal; it openly flirts with banditry.

We are left to our own devices, and Jean Willys, threatened with death, departs into exile with his head held high, carrying with him the dignity of someone who never engaged in any illicit activity, while those who celebrate his banishment are sinking into a quagmire of scandals never before seen in the history of this country.

"Our flag will never be red," shout those celebrating the departure of a great fighter.

The flag of these people will never be red, never.

Because red is the color of the brave, the color of the struggle of the people.

The flag of these people should be yellow, all yellow, because yellow is the color of cowardice and cowards.
