A group of masked people carrying torches protested early in the morning on Sunday (31) in front of the Supreme Federal Court.

Right-leader Sara Winter, who is currently under investigation for sharing fake news in a Supreme Court lawsuit, led the demonstration.

With masks, black clothes, and torches, the group, made up of a few dozen people, descended the Esplanade and, according to images posted by them on the networks, positioned themselves in front of the Supreme Court. "We came to charge, the STF will not shut us up," they shouted.

Is he aiming for a worldwide race way? I know he wants a race war. People keep telling me I am wrong, but I am not. I just notice things before other people do.

Sounds like right wing groups all over the world are itching for war with anyone not as right wing as them. I was I wasn't eyeball deep in blood red area of a red state. I'm outnumbered with no one on my side. I hope my death is quick at least when they start slaughtering us all. I can't ask for a rescue from anyone because I don't know anyone who would anyhow, lol.
