More than 20 Brazilian universities were invaded by the military police in the past 2 days. They confiscated material on the history of fascism, interrupted classes due to 'ideological content', removed anti-fascist banners and posters claiming that it was electoral propaganda.https://twitter.com/folha/status/1055670109644210176 …
In the state of Rio, the court ordered the UFF faculty to remove from the Law School facade a flag with the message "UFF Law Against Fascism". The judge even determined the arrest of the director unless the flag was removed within 12 hours.
UERJ also reported police forces removing flags in support of Marielle Franco and another one that reads "Anti-fascism UERJ". In Rio Grande do Sul, an event entitled "Against fascism, Pro Democracy" was also prohibited by the electoral court.
In Mato Grosso do Sul, a public class entitled "Crushing Fascism" was also censored. In Pará, a lecture was interrupted by the military police that questioned the professor about the ideological content of the class and threatened to arrest him.
Many other student movements and organizations reported military police forces inside classrooms, student units, academic directories, confiscating any sort of materials with 'anti-fascist' or 'pro-democracy' content.
Organise and protest, Brazil (non-violently, if circumstances are conducive)
we did it but i think isn't enough :((
world outside of Brazil will give moral support but it's your battle ultimately..Brazil is a country with great potential, you'll can't give it away to fascists or any other extremists..best of luck btw it's a lessen for my country as well, we have (kinda) similar people at top
<3 we'll resist!
How can people outside of Brazil help? We want to help!
i really don't know now we just need to fight back
What was this guy's appeal?
a far-right militar president won the election
What supposed laws are people breaking?
our law says people shouldn't make electoral propaganda inside federal institutions (if i'm not mistaken), but the thing is no one even mentioned the name of the candidate people were protesting against fascism...
So the state is arguing academic books about fascism are “electoral propaganda?”
20+ universities had anti fascism slogans taken down! and literally like a day or two before the election the supreme court decided to say people should be able to speak about fascism, this is really scary...
Please continue to let us know what is happening.
He lies, no one touched books, withdrew posters against fascism after a strong campaign to label it that way. Bolsonaro said he would not accept a gay son and so he calls him Hitler. As he makes a lot of joke he said he was joking.
Joking about things like this when you're a presidential candidate should not be acceptable to anyone. If it is indeed a joke, it is a callous one, and shows he is a monster.
