capturedbysam replied to your post: Brazilian people voting for homophobic...
I guess it’s because a candidate’s competence isn’t based solely on their views of morality. Also, just because someone thinks that homosexual civil union is wrong does not make them homophobic, being a hater does.
a presidential candidate said that "the excretory system can't reproduce". He compared a pedophile to gays. Also said they need psychological treatment and the majority should win the minority.(It was live during a debate) Another presidential candidate was pro-gay rights. It lasted 24 hours. She changed her government plan because of an evangelical preacher's tweets saying he would not support her anymore. And the most voted congressman of Rio de Janeiro says dictatorship was a good time for Brazil. The third most voted congressman of São Paulo was the president of human rights commission and is also homophobic, even the minority being an important part of the human rights commission. These are some news I wanted you all to be aware of.
