Brazil, an aporia
O que eu acho impressionante é o raciocínio circular e aporístico dos intelectuais de esquerda. Se não prendem o político: no Brasil só ladrão de galinha vai preso, pois as artimanhas legais são inúmeras e favorecem quem tem o melhor aparato de defesa. Se, por outro lado, prendem o político: não podemos atropelar o Estado de Direito, imagine se fosse com você, cidadão comum, etc.
What I find amazing is the circular and aporistic reasoning of leftwing intellectuals. If politicians are not arrested: in Brazil only chicken thieves go to jail, because the legal tricks are numberless and favor who has the better defense apparatus. If, on the other hand, politicians are arrested: we cannot run over the Rule of Law, imagine if this happened to you, ordinary citizen, etc.
