Fábio Porchat retreats on the Leo Lins case and apologizes: ‘I was wrong’

by

Comedian Fábio Porchat spoke again about the Leo Lins case. In a new statement, released this Friday night (26) on his Instagram profile, the comedian assumed that he made isolated tweets about “a complex subject” and that he failed to “not be careful with words”.

“I read a lot, received a lot of messages, talked to a lot of nice people. And I understood the reactions very well”, he said, at the beginning of the video. “My position has never been to defend racist humor. I’ve always tried to defend humor that doesn’t hurt, that doesn’t hurt.”

In closing, Porchat says it needed a better assessment. “I spoke in a shallow and confused way, so I got it wrong,” she says. Next, he informs that the publications on the subject were deleted from his social networks to “redo the positioning”.

“The way he was, he was loose, irresponsible, he opened up room to validate some things that I don’t agree with”, reinforces the comedian, who intended to talk about freedom of expression.

On May 16, Leo Lins had a comedy special deleted, at the behest of Justice, from his YouTube profile. The next day, Porchat classified the episode as “censorship”, generating dozens of negative comments about it.
