Actor Mário Gomes, 69, has criticized the political stance of many of his peers in the arts class. He said many media outlets are opposed to Jair Bolsonaro’s government, of which he is a selfconfessed supporter, only to ingratiate himself with TV Globo.
“I haven’t been with Globo for 14 years, thank God. I see my colleagues, poor people who are sometimes practically forced to support Globo,” Mário explained in an interview with the podcast “Papagaio Falante” by Sérgio Mallandro and Renato Rabelo.
One of the famous ones he mentioned by name in his review was the presenter Xuxa Meneghel. “Xuxa has no idea! She talks about things but she doesn’t know what’s happening. They don’t know how bad a socialist government with drug dealers etc will be for them.”
Mário also got involved in the conflict between brothers Bruno and Thiago Gagliasso, siding with the second side. “His brother [Thiago] You have a clear head! It’s not tied to anything, so you can [falar o que pensa].”
“They say that Bolsonaro is a dictator. [Mas] Bolsonaro doesn’t do anything, they just scold him, put their face in him, [até] the truth is. That stitch, he didn’t die because God didn’t want it,” the actor added.
In the sequence, he referred to former President Lula, giving him the pejorative nickname “Nine Fingers.”
“Nine Fingers says that Brazil will be handed over to China, that the ideal government for Brazil is China… The ideal government for Brazil is Brazilian! Our color is green and yellow! Our color is not red!” he barked .
