Bolsonaro supporters downplay terrorist attack in Brasília and cite "PT infiltrators" to justify violence.
On social media, coup plotters claim that it was all an orchestrated action to destroy the image of the Bolsonaro supporters camped out.
247 - After the scenes of terror carried out by Bolsonaro supporters on Monday night (12) in Brasília, in which terrorists set fire to cars, buses, held civilians hostage and threw homemade bombs through the streets of the city, the narrative of the far-right leadership is now based on saying that everything was just an action organized by left-wing infiltrators to tarnish the image of the coup-plotting campers who refuse to accept the victory of President-elect Lula.
On Jovem Pan radio, the discourse was the same throughout the coverage of the events. Commentators who make no secret of their support for Bolsonaro spent hours arguing that it was all just an action organized by Black Bloc thugs.
"The right has been openly demonstrating in the streets since 2015, always in an absolutely peaceful manner, even with large gatherings. But yesterday, just yesterday, protesters with black bloc tactics appeared? It's clear there's infiltration. It's clear there's a method to it," said Fernando Holiday.
"People wearing black clothes and/or hoods hiding their faces infiltrated the protesters and set vehicles on fire in Brasília. Some carried Molotov cocktails in their backpacks. Typical behavior of the MST (Landless Workers' Movement), Black Bloc, and Antifa; both aligned with Lula. All planned," said a profile titled "Colonel Fernando Montenegro."
