RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – In the interview, the drag queen talks about the current political context in Brazil and even quotes Linn da Quebrada.
“We are living a superconservative wave in Brazil; it is a dangerous and sad moment for us now. You can see this in other countries too, which makes me very worried and afraid of what will come next. “But a friend of mine, Linn da Quebrada, once said: ‘The LGBTQIA + community in Brazil has suffered greatly, for a long time, and is reacting in any way it can. Let’s keep doing this, but instead of hating it, let’s fight hard, filled with love, kindness, joy and respect'”.
Pabllo also mentions the hate speech that she and other people from the LGBTQ+ community experience on social media, as a consequence of the visibility they have garnered.
“We’re not asking for much; we want respect, it’s not that hard. I think not just for the young, but everyone. Be yourself, be respectful of others, and spread love. Don’t let other people’s words or hatred define your life; everyone should shine in their way and be happy about it!”
