Jair Bolsonaro Wants to Know What a Golden Shower Is

Brazil’s uber conservative President, Jair Bolsonaro, has been very vocal about his platform on ending rights and privileges for the LGBTQ+ community. His policies are homophobic in nature as he has publicly said disparaging remarks about the LGBTQ+ community and vows to implement regressive policies for the country.

Bolsonaro has now taken to Twitter to spread his hatred by posted an explicit video of a man wearing a jockstrap, dancing during a Brazilian Carnival celebration before touching himself and urinating on another man’s head. His motive? To spread hate by making a mockery and example of a sub community to his 3.5 million followers.

The tweet reads:

I do not feel comfortable in showing this, but we have to expose the truth to the population to have knowledge and always take their priorities. This is what has turned many ‘blocos’ (street carnivals) have become. Comment and take away your conclusions:

Carnival is part of the Brazil Mardi Gras leading up to Ash Wednesday that has been historically LGBTQ-friendly. This year Carnival has become an opportunity to criticize and protest Bolsonaro with costumes, masks, and obscenities reports CNN. Bolsonaro won the presidency in 2018 in what has been one of the most controversial and polarizing campaign in Brazil’s history. And do you see why?
