Brasil's only openly gay congressman leaves his country.

He's had death threats and was friends with someone who was murdered last year. Brazil's 'nationalist' president gives a thumbs up on Twitter.

So much for free speech.

Not much of that (free speech) survives anywhere at the moment.

@Picklebobble2 Tbh, I think it's not so much a problem in most places. In Brazil, its different.

Aren't they cracking down on free speech in England?

@GunSmoke9 In the Labour Party you are not allowed to critise Israel without being called an anti semite but other than that its pretty free. We even tolerate Tommy Robinson ffs

@Burnley123 I thought you couldn't criticize Islam or Muslims either.

What will happen to the remainder of the Rain Forest there?

@Platoscave Bolsonaro is in league with the Brazilian fossil fuel lobby and is a committed anti environmentalist so it's not looking good.

@Burnley123 oh - i dont pay attention to other nations that are of no interest to me

@MarmeeMarch IDK if he was. Maybe, I am not Brazilian so I have no business on what they do there. But gay bashing sucks so it can't be nice for them.
