Lawyer Gabriela Prioli, 36, seven months pregnant, refused to give her opinion at the request of followers about the Jair Bolsonaro government blocking R$ 2.4 billion from this year’s MEC (Ministry of Education) budget.
“I received messages: ‘Gabi talks about the cut in education’. Guys, I’m in New York making my daughter’s trousseau. [falar sobre]maybe next week,” he said.
On Twitter, her name became one of the most talked about topics as if she wasn’t too worried about the situation. “Why do you want to know what Gabriela Prioli, rich, pregnant and in New York has to say about public education? Sometimes the problem is not even with her, but with those who place this importance”, posted a follower.
“Gabriela Prioli looking at the camera with a disdainful face saying she’s in NY buying her daughter’s trousseau while the country is dying. It’s the portrait of tacky whiteness”, opined another.
After the repercussion, Prioli countered. In a text published in her Stories, she said she was “indignant”. “You know what mistake we make? It’s thinking we’re among friends. That we’ve built some intimacy here,” she began.
“Forgive me those who over the last few days have sent me numerous affectionate messages encouraging me to rest. You are the majority and don’t deserve this outburst. But I woke up from a nap and came across this nonsense and I’m here indignant, needing to let off steam”, she concluded. .
