The problem of Bolsonaro

Latinoamerica has always been a very particular place. In politics, “Left” and “Right” (or Liberals and Conservatives) always compete in equal conditions. I mean, it’s very umpredictable which side will govern a country in a certain time.

In Brasil, is almost obvious that the ultra-conservative candidate for President, Jair Bolsonaro, will win the elections this month. Bolsonaro is a dangerous politician for a lot of things. He’s an oppenly Pinochet’s dictatorship supporter, and openly homophobic and misogynistic.

The risk of Bolsonaro is not only his ultra-conservative proposals, but his evident fascism. The problem is not that he is a ‘right’ symphatizer, every person has the freedom to choose their political view. The problem is that this politician is not respectful with all of the components in a society, and the respect for all of the majorities and minorities it’s something essential.

I admit it, I’m very scared for this situation. But, after all, this is the famous ‘democracy’, and we must respect the decisions of the people who vote for their political representatives in the government.
