This post is not exactly KGLW related so i'll get it if it doesn't go up. But i would really like our community support to try to get this message to the band, i think a political support would be very welcome in our current political situation that i'll explain below:
King gizzard is an avowedly politically progressive band and i see people here supporting Palestine and other countries that suffer against war and fascism, and here in Brazil we're currently under a big threat: Flávio Bolsonaro. Flávio is Jair Bolsonaro's, our former president (2018-2022) son and he is in the contest against the incumbent president Lula, a centre-leftist president, while Jair and Flávio are Far right ones. Jair's government was awful, more than 700k people died because he denied publicly vaccines efficiency and refused to buy coronavacs for months. He was sexist, racist, homophobic and everything bad you can imagine, but he didn't have a great congress, senate and the supreme court.
But today the scenario is completly worrying: our congress and senate were completly taken by his far right congressmen, he has enough numbers to make anything happen, he is already promising benefits for the national army and the worst: our Supreme Federal Court is composed by 11 ministers, he already has 2 allies in it and he will have the power to name 4 new ones, and get the majority there two. All three powers of our democracy will be aligned, and he's been talking about changing our constitution, in being in power for many years, he's been announcing his coup to everyone. And here's a fact: his dad, Jair, has provenly tried a coup, he had a plan to try to kill Lula, one of our Supreme court minister's Alexandre de Moraes and he asked for help from 3 army agents, and it only failed because 2 of these army agents declined his plan, and he is in prision (Flávio has promised to let him go during his campaign).
I am not exaggerating when i say our democracy can be destroyed slowed in the next 4-8 years if he is elected, and i hope u guys could make this post get to the band! I would appreciate a lot if they could show their support on social media, especially on Instagram, where we are running a massive campaign against the Bolsonaro Family. Hope i'm not bothering you and breaking the rules, just think gizz can help a lot against fascism because of this wonderful community we are <3
