The Day of the Contrarians

Well, according to my friends who are analysts of soccer and politics… this result means Dilma and the PT are going to lose the elections, right?!

Today Brazil changed. With this defeat we’ll be more honest, more correct, we’ll vote better. This defeat shows our sadness and at last we can cry 100%. Let’s cry for the overpass that collapsed, for the taxes, for the lack of security… and remember soccer, the only thing that made us smile?! Well, congratulations to you… now we can cry over everything… we can be 100% sad. You know “bread and circuses”? They cut the bread and dismantled the Circus.

Today is the party day for the contrarians… I hope you guys are right… all of you who rooted against, who said the defeat would show the “truth” to Brazil.

Today is the day you’ve been waiting for. There’s sadness all over the country, tears, but everything you wanted has happened. Congratulations.

May this be the party of those who rooted against. Today is the day for you to smile, while your cousin, your brother, your friend, your mom are upset and sad… congratulations, you can celebrate, tonight is yours. The Antis, the Contrarians…

I just ask that you be minimally polite — these 20 guys will be crucified and will live a horrible life from now on, they’ll forever be remembered for this result. Look up what happened to the guys who lost the ‘50 final, and have just a little ‘mercy’…
