Brazil, September 3, 2021.
I said about the feeling of a complete emptiness, which reconnects the past of 20 years ago with today, in Brazil it is connecting the past of 40 years ago with today, because to some extent a certain generation was suffocated in this period of time . It is the only explanation that is clear to me. Probably in these 20 years in Afghanistan the generations that emerged in that short period of time were not structured and empowered, not even or especially, by their dominator. And that takes its toll.
Who here suffers from the illusion that a Western military command is going to empower a generation of women somewhere? In the armed forces of Brazil, for example, there was, until some time ago, a great effort to raise women to command posts, and this had repercussions for all our peacekeeping forces. Being women outstanding in African countries in combating the rape of women and violence against children, but the war situation alone speaks of the most inhospitable environment possible for these two groups of people. And this 40-year-old reconnection that Brazil is making again generates both a misogyny and a feminism that are more conflagrated among themselves, and less sensible.
The Brazilian Navy especially, in some punctual efforts.
Not uncommon is the feeling among many in Brazil that 40 years ago Brazil was good and beautiful. This feeling that prevails in the country today, is the same that inexplicably dominated social networks, for example, which is the North American or Western culture. This feeling is extremely privileged in all these media, to the detriment of people like me, who in my 16 years old became famous in the city as an internet and radio pioneer under the nickname Woodstock. And today we look at each other with suspicion, this North American culture that I consider to be young and therefore must be taken into account, and us young people here, who were suddenly subtracted by people who believe that we should take this train to 40 years ago.
