Comedian and presenter Fábio Porchat came out in defense of fellow comedian Léo Lins after Justice censored his comedy special. In the content that has already been removed from the internet, Lins made jokes that mentioned people from the Northeast, fat and disabled people.

“This here is a disgrace! Unacceptable”, wrote Porchat on his Twitter when reverberating the measure against his colleague. However, soon his name ended up among the most commented subjects on the same social network. Many people criticized his stance. Until the publication of this text, the presenter had not taken a position on the subject. Sought, he did not respond.

“Rabin, Porchat and a whole bunch of comedians now say they are surprised when they contributed to this censorship scenario”, opined Irish profile. “It’s a shame you can’t make capacitist, transphobic, homophobic, fatphobic jokes among others, right, Porchat?”, mocked Eduardo’s profile.

“The problem with this group is that they choose which prejudices are legitimate and can be encouraged. Porchat itself is one of the biggest encouragers of prejudice against believers in the country”, was what Wagner Thomazoni’s profile wrote.

There were also those who recovered excerpts from the comedian’s participation in a podcast in which he was against this type of joke. In an excerpt, Porchat states that anyone who laughs at a disability, for example, needs to take responsibility, since “people are killed by this type of joke”, and that “fighting to make a joke that perpetuates prejudice is so small, precarious and sad “.

UNDERSTAND THE CASE

Comedian Léo Lins was forced to delete a comedy special from his YouTube channel this Tuesday (16). The clip, which had more than 3.3 million hits, had jokes about minorities and had its withdrawal determined after a request from the Public Ministry. The comedian himself confirmed this information.

According to him, the removal of the video should “set a dangerous precedent for comedy and art in general”. In some publications, in which Lins made a countdown to the banning of the material, he made some outbursts.

In another post, he said that his lawyer was already filing a defense and that he intended to make a video reporting what is happening.

In the video in question, Lins talks about a “ranking of privileges that exists in society today”. “At the base, there is the old man. On top, there is the poor Northeasterner. After him, there is the pregnant woman, who has a special seat. On top of her, there is the fat man who also has a special seat. The fat man is a pregnant woman who sits He became pregnant. (…) On top of the fat person is the disabled person who has a seat, does not queue. The proof of this is that an old man from the Northeast, fat and disabled, became president”, he says, in an excerpt that remains available on social networks. .
