Los Angeles (AFP) – The superstars who give life to the “Avengers” activated this Friday on Twitter to call on Brazilians to vote in the presidential elections on Sunday.
“Hunger in Brazil is not fiction but it can end. Listen to our brothers, vote next Sunday,” tweeted actor Samuel L. Jackson, “Nick Fury” in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Jackson responded to a tweet from Brazilian comedian Fabio Porchat, who asked the Avengers for “help” for the presidential duel.
Brazil chooses between former president Luiz Inácio ‘Lula’ da Silva and the current president, the far-right Jair Bolsonaro, who has been the target of criticism outside the country for defending mineral and timber exploitation in the Amazon.
‘Lula’, 77, prevailed in the first round by 48% against 43% and maintains a modest advantage in the polls, with 53% of the preferences against 47% for Bolsonaro, according to a survey by the Datafolha Institute. from Thursday
“Here the villains are the empty shopping bag, the weapons arriving at the schools, the lack of medicine in the pharmacy… This really is work for superheroes. Is anyone listening to me?” wrote Porchat, a critic of Bolsonaro.
“I’m listening to you here,” Jackson responded in Portuguese and, using the hashtag #NoTodosLosHéroesUsanCapa, called on his colleagues to join the fight.
The ‘Iron Man’, ‘Thor’, ‘Hulk’ and ‘Wong’ responded immediately to the call, interacting with personalities who declared their vote for ‘Lula’.
“We are with you on this mission”
“We are with you on this mission,” Chris Hemsworth replied in Portuguese to Brazilian celebrity Juliette. “Brazilian Avengers, this Sunday all of you are worthy of voting, something more powerful than any hammer,” added ‘Thor’.
“With access to quality education, all children can invent a better future. Don’t wait for that. Vote for it,” tweeted Robert Downey Jr., the ‘Iron Man’, also in Portuguese, and interacting with Brazilian TV personality Luciano ‘Huck’.
“We are united against oppression!” wrote Benedict Wong, the British actor who plays ‘Wong’. “Our magicians are working to protect all those who mobilize this Sunday to decide their future,” he added in response to Brazilian actress Ana Hikari.
“True science makes us stronger, as Bruce Banner proves,” Mark Ruffalo wrote, referencing his Marvel character.
“Please, vote on Sunday for brave open minds and strong and healthy families,” added Ruffalo, who before the first round urged Brazilians to vote for ‘Lula’ in order to favor the fight against climate change.
‘Lula’ returned to the political arena after 19 months in prison accused of corruption, a sentence that was annulled when the judiciary determined that there were procedural errors.
The former leftist president (2003-2010) has received support in this campaign from Hollywood, in the voices of the star of ‘Aquaman’, Jason Momoa, Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Hamyll, among others.
Bolsonaro, a former retired military officer elected president in 2018, has drawn criticism for downplaying the impact of the pandemic, which left almost 700,000 deaths in Brazil, in addition to making homophobic, racist and anti-minority statements.
