Olavo Luiz Pimentel de Carvalho[a] GCRB (29 April 1947 – 24 January 2022)[2][3][4] was a Brazilian polemicist, self-proclaimed philosopher,[5][6] political pundit, former astrologer, journalist, and far-right conspiracy theorist.[7][8] From 2005 until his death, he lived near Richmond, Virginia, in the United States.[9][10][11]

While publishing about politics, literature and philosophy since the 1980s, he made himself known to wider Brazilian audiences from the 1990s onwards, mainly writing columns for some of Brazil's major media outlets, such as the newspaper O Globo. In the 2000s, he began to use personal blogs and social media to convey his conservative and anti-communist ideas.[12][13][14] In the late 2010s, he rose to prominence in the Brazilian public debate, being dubbed the "intellectual father of the new right"[15] and the ideologue of Jair Bolsonaro,[16] a label which he rejected.[17]

As a polemicist, Carvalho was criticized for often resorting to obscene ad hominem attacks.[18] His books and articles have spread conspiracy theories and false information,[19][20][21] and he has been accused of fomenting hate speech[22] and anti-intellectualism.[23] He positioned himself as a critic of modernity. His interests included historical philosophy, the history of revolutionary movements, the Traditionalist School[24][1] and comparative religion.[25] His views were rejected by some philosophers.[26][27][28]

Early life and education

Olavo was the son of a male lawyer and a female employee of the printing industry, who divorced while he was still a child.[29] His first name, which he claimed meant "survivor" in Norwegian,[30][24] was chosen by his grandmother.[24]

According to an interview he gave Luciano Bravo for the LíderCast podcast, he was born sick, and spent seven years bedridden.[30] Olavo de Carvalho had heart problems, as well as Lyme disease.[31][32]

He was in school up to the fourth grade of "gymnasium" (ginásio),[29] which was the name of elementary school in Brazil at the time.[33]

According to his daughter, Carvalho had been a member of a Tariqa, an order of Sufism, but that was never verified.[34]

His eldest daughter, Heloisa de Carvalho Martins Arriba, accused her father of occasional maltreatment of his children. All content was wrapped in a letter that was later shared on Facebook. According to the letter, Olavo had even pointed a gun to the head of one of his children. She made other accusations including that Olavo kept a polygamous relationship living with three wives at the same time.[35] The accusations were denied by her siblings and by Olavo himself, who initiated a lawsuit against her citing that in her letter she "distances herself from any contact with reality by spreading outrageous lies and vile insults".[36]

Career

Carvalho acted as an astrologer[37] from 1979 to 1982,[29] having learned it from, among others, the Argentine psychologist Juan Alfredo César Müller.[38] In 1979, he founded the "Revista de Astrologia Júpiter" ("Jupiter: Astrology Review"[b]); around this time, he introduced himself in his business card as the "scientific director of the Brazilian Astrocharacterology Society", headquartered at his home.[29] "Astrocharacterology" (astrocaracterologia) is Olavo's own pseudoscience,[29] "whose task is to separate poetic language from symbolic language, showing the objectivity of astrological language".[39]

From the 1970s to the 2000s, he wrote for several Brazilian magazines and newspapers, such as Bravo!, Primeira Leitura, Claudia, O Globo, Folha de S.Paulo (starting in February 1977 with an article about The Magic Flute in the "Folhetim" literary supplement[40]), Época and Zero Hora.[41]

In 2002, Carvalho founded the website Maskless Media (Mídia Sem Máscara). It presents itself as an observatory of the news media.[42] He was the host of the show True Outspeak on BlogTalkRadio, which aired from 2006 to 2013.[43] As of 2019, he wrote a weekly column for the Brazilian newspaper Diário do Comércio and taught philosophy in an online course to over 2,000 students.[15] He is said to have introduced to Portuguese-speaking readers works of important conservative philosophers of the 20th century, such as Eric Voegelin.[44][45] In addition to newspaper articles and many blog and social media posts, he authored a number of books, many of them collections of previously published texts. A list of his books published by one of his students in 2018 included 32 books.[46]

Carvalho founded the Inter-American Institute for Philosophy, Government, and Social Thought in 2009, and served as its president.[47] He collaborated with Ted Baehr, Paul Gottfried, Judith Reisman,[48][49] Alejandro Peña Esclusa, and Stephen Baskerville through the Inter-American Institute.[50] The institute closed down in 2018, possibly due to complaints made by Olavo's former students to the Institute's board that, among other complaints, he never concluded the secondary education, and was not, as his profile in the Institute claimed, a former senior lecturer in the Catholic University of Paraná.[51]

In 2011, Olavo had a written debate, in English, with Aleksandr Dugin, on the topic of "The USA and the New World Order". The debate was published on-line in a Blogspot website,[52] and was later translated to Portuguese for publishing in Brazil.[53] The debate was partially summarized in chapter 14 of the 2020 book War for Eternity, by Benjamin Teitelbaum.[1]

Carvalho became one of the most influential individuals in the administration of Jair Bolsonaro.[54][55] According to one account, Bolsonaro got interested in Carvalho's ideas in 2013.[56] In 2014, Bolsonaro and Carvalho started transmitting their live video chats through politically conservative YouTube channels.[57][58][59] In 2017, Carvalho was depicted as the "ideologue" of Bolsonaro,[16][60] a title he has refuted.[17]

In his first live speech on Facebook after being elected, Bolsonaro was pictured next to one of the books written by Carvalho, in what was interpreted as a sign of his influence over the newly elected president.[61] Journalists writing for El País and Folha, respectively, claimed that Carvalho influenced the nomination of two prominent Ministers by Bolsonaro: Ricardo Vélez Rodríguez (Education)[62] and Ernesto Araújo (Foreign Affairs).[63] Leonardo Sakamoto, writing for the website UOL (Universo Online),[64] also made these claims, but emphasized Bolsonaro's responsibility for these ministers.[65]

In November 2018, after the Brazilian presidential election, Carvalho declared that, if nominated by President-elect Jair Bolsonaro, he would accept the role of Brazilian ambassador to the United States. However, in February 2019, Carvalho clashed with some key figures of the Bolsonaro administration, including the Vice-President, Hamilton Mourão, whom he accused of being a "traitor" and an "idiot" who is "pro-abortion, pro-disarmament and pro-Nicolás Maduro".[66] Mourão dismissed the criticisms.[67]

In 2020, Sleeping Giants started a campaign to reduce his influence on Brazilian politics and convinced advertisers to remove their media buying from his online newspaper and YouTube channel.[68] This led to PayPal deciding to cancel their contract with Olavo, and remove their services from his online seminars, citing violation of terms of use.[68]

Also in 2020, Carvalho was ordered to pay 2.8 million Brazilian reais in libel charges after accusing musician Caetano Veloso of sexual crimes against children.[69][70]

Death

Olavo's family announced his death on social media, on January 24, 2022, eight days after he tested positive for COVID-19.[4] His family's statement did not specify his cause of death, but his daughter Heloísa said that it was from coronavirus.[11][3] His personal doctor denied it was COVID-19 and stated officially that his death was caused by respiratory stress associated with emphysema, heart failure, bacterial pneumonia, and a generalised infection.[71] Olavo was known for his vaccine hesitancy and often questioned the severity of COVID-19 pandemic, spreading COVID-19 misinformation on his social media.[72] According to his family, he died at a hospital outside of Richmond, Virginia.[73] He is buried at St. Joseph's Cemetery in Petersburg, Virginia.[74]

At his death Olavo de Carvalho left his widow, eight children, and eighteen grandchildren.[4]

Olavo de Carvalho reportedly confessed his sins to a Roman Catholic priest and received the last rites before his death.[75]

Views and controversies

Definition of philosophy

See also: Definitions of philosophy

Olavo de Carvalho defined philosophy as "the search for the unity of knowledge in the unity of consciousness and vice-versa".[76][77][78] He repeated this definition in various places, namely: in a 2020 interview with Fabíola Cidral,[79] in the introduction to his book about Descartes,[80] in part III of the essay "A filosofia e seu inverso" ("Philosophy and Its Inverse"), published in the book of the same name,[81] and in his video course about Mário Ferreira dos Santos, titled "Mário Ferreira dos Santos: Guia para o estudo de sua obra" ("Mário Ferreira dos Santos: Guide for the Study of His Work"), and published as a transcript in the book of the same name.[82] He also mentioned it in lecture 2 of his course about Louis Lavelle,[83] in which he drew the consequence that the work of philosophy can never be finished, since no philosopher can explain everything he has known;[83] this consequence was also drawn from the definition by Ronald Robson's own book about Olavo.[84]

"Four discourses" in Aristotle

Olavo de Carvalho believed that, according to Aristotle, "human discourse is a single power, which actualizes itself in four different ways: poetics, rhetoric, dialectic, and analytic (logic)".[85][86][39] This would be in contrast to views which would see poetics and rhetoric as sharply divided from analytical logic, and by extension, "Letters" from "the Sciences".[85] Besides defending this as an interpretation of Aristotle, he also defended it as a philosophical view in its own right, which he thought could be of use for "our current search for an interdisciplinary knowledge". His writings about this view were collected in his book "Aristóteles em nova perspectiva: Introdução à teoria dos quatro discursos" ("Aristotle in a New Perspective: Introduction to the Theory of the Four Discourses").[87][88][39]

Cognitive parallax

Not to be confused with Cognitive dissonance.

Olavo de Carvalho, taking inspiration from "the symbol of old cameras",[80] coined the term "cognitive parallax" to "designate the structural displacement between the axis of a thinker's actual experience and the axis of their theoretical construction".[80][89][90] Olavo mentioned the term "cognitive parallax" in section 5 of his book about Machiavelli, claiming that Machiavelli was an example of cognitive parallax because "he taught the Prince to rise to power with the help of allies and then kill them, whereas obviously, he himself, as the author of the plan and therefore one of the Prince's greatest allies, would have been among the first to die if the plan were put into action."[91] Olavo also mentioned the term "cognitive parallax" in section XIV of his book about Descartes, claiming that Descartes's interpretation of his "Olympian dreams"[92] was an example.[80]

In a 2008 interview, Olavo gave two other supposed examples of cognitive parallax: First, he said that "Kant's theory of the unknowability of the 'thing-in-itself'" is "radically incompatible with the act of writing books", since "certainly, the philosopher from Königsberg would not be satisfied if we apprehended only the phenomenal appearance of his philosophy". Second, he said that "Karl Marx says that only the proletariat can grasp the real movement of history, because the classes that precede it are trapped in the subjective fantasy of their respective class ideologies", whereas this makes it hard to understand why Marx himself was "the first to perceive this and grasp the allegedly real movement of history, when he was not a proletarian, had no experience of proletarian life, and only knew proletarians through readings until his mature age".[90]

According to a text by Ronald Robson, Olavo is supposed to have gone into more depth on cognitive parallax in a lecture titled "Introdução à paralaxe cognitiva" ("Introduction to cognitive parallax"),[77] which, however, has not been published. Olavo also mentioned the term in his Online Philosophy Course lectures.[39]

Basic sciences

Views on Newton

In an essay titled "Nas origens da burrice ocidental" ("At the origins of Western stupidity"), Olavo claimed that Newton introduced a self-contradictory thesis into the Western mind, which was responsible for spreading a virus of "formidable stupidity". The thesis in question referred to "eternal motion" and the law of inertia: the latter would claim that "the force of its own inertia perpetually maintains each body in its present state, whether at rest or in uniform rectilinear motion", but "if motion is eternal, it makes no sense to speak of a 'present state' except in reference to a living observer endowed with a sense of temporality."[93]

Olavo went on to claim that the idea of eternal motion, besides contradicting the law of inertia, also contradicted itself. This essay was reproduced in his book about Descartes as an appendix.[80] The essay was used by Ronald Robson as a source for the idea that "when someone accepts a self-contradictory thesis as if it were an ultimate truth, the unnoticed contradiction takes refuge in the unconscious and damages the entire logical intelligence of the unfortunate person".[94]

Views on Einstein

Olavo claimed, in lecture 16 of his Online Philosophy Course, that Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity was plagiarized from earlier theorists such as Poincaré and Lorentz.[95][96] Olavo believed this claim on the basis of Christopher Jon Bjerknes's book Albert Einstein: the incorrigible plagiarist.[95]

Pepsi sweetener hoax

Carvalho also spread the hoax of Pepsi using cells from aborted fetuses to sweeten soft drinks.[97][98]

Climate change

Carvalho claimed that global warming is a hoax produced by a global conspiracy. He based his claims on the Climategateepisode in which hackers, on the eve of the Copenhagen Conference, disseminated thousands of e-mails from University of East Anglia climatologists in order to undermine the credibility of the conference. Carvalho claimed Climategate to be the work of a conspiracy led by the Rockefeller family, the Council of Foreign Relations, the Bilderberg Club, and the New World Order, indicating them also as leaders of the "global abortion and gay ... campaigns of the new bionic global religion, and of the Obama administration's proposal for universal control of the movement of capital."[99][third-party source needed]

Health

In a 2016 Twitter post, Carvalho claimed that "vaccines either kill you or drive you crazy. Never vaccinate your children."[100][101]

He falsely declared that AIDS does not pose a risk to heterosexuals, basing his arguments on journalist Michael Fumento's book The Myth of Heterosexual Aids.[102][103]

On March 22, 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, a disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, he stated in a livestream on YouTube that there was no confirmed case of death from the virus in the world and that the pandemic would be "an invention" and "the most extensive manipulation of public opinion that has ever happened in human history".[104][105] At that date, according to the World Health Organization, there were more than 294,000 cases of the disease and 12,784 deaths from it.[106]

Brazilian politics

Olavo claimed that the Foro de São Paulo "is the largest political organization that has ever existed in Latin America and undoubtedly one of the largest in the world".[107]

Olavo also shared the false information that a book written by Fernando Haddad, the opponent of Jair Bolsonaro during the 2018 Brazilian general election, promoted incest.[108]

On March 17, 2019, Carvalho criticised the presence of military personnel in Bolsonaro's administration, stating: "He didn't choose two hundred generals. Two hundred generals chose him. Those people want to restore the 1964 regime under a democratic aspect. They're ruling and using Bolsonaro as a condom. I'm not saying that it is the reality, but it is what they want. Mourão said that they would return to power democratically. If it is not a coup, it is a coup mentality."[109]

United States politics

Olavo de Carvalho believed that Barack Obama's documents,[110] such as his birth certificate, social security card, and military enlistment,[111] were not genuine. In particular, he believed Christopher Monckton's testimony about Obama's birth certificate.[112] While this view is typically associated with the conspiracy theory that Barack Obama was not born in the United States, Olavo refrained from questioning his birthplace, claiming in a 2012 column that "birthers" had "diluted" their "attack power" by focusing on claims about Obama's birthplace rather than Obama's documents.[111] However, he later contributed to the spread of birtherism by sharing a forged picture on social media that purportedly showed a "foreign student" card from Columbia University with Barack Obama's name on it,[113] as well as a different forged hoax that showed a Kenya birth certificate with Obama's name on it.[114]

In a January 2021 interview, Carvalho falsely claimed that election fraud took place in the 2020 American presidential election, stating "Everything in this election has been fraudulent." During the same interview Carvalho falsely asserted that Joe Biden had Parkinson's disease and that Biden and Kamala Harris were working for the Chinese government.[115]

Inquisition

Carvalho advocated a revisionist view of the Inquisition, claiming it is a myth spread by Protestants.[116][117]

I was beginning to understand why a reader of Guénon would become a champion of Bolsonaro. Olavo's focus on Traditionalism's opposition to modern science, though seemingly an apolitical subject, may have been more relevant to his analysis of political and social life than I first thought. In writing and in conversation he waxes seamlessly from disagreement with the scientific process to dismissal of modern knowledge to criticism of the institutions whose authority rests obliquely on modernist knowledge. It is in that final step when Traditionalism and populism can come together, when we can draw a line between astrology, alchemy, and the president. Not only are Brazil's media, education system, and government corrupted by money and self-interests in his mind, but they are purveyors of ignorance, too, because of their blind investment in modern science and its inability to account for, let alone value, spirituality. The only immateriality they will admit is the abstractions of mathematics, which themselves serve to confuse as well, Olavo contends. Like Bannon, Olavo finds a trace of solace among the poor and uneducated, those most distanced from institutionalized education and knowledge production. In Brazil as in the United States, they are the keepers of spirit, those who have achieved a measure of community and context otherwise elusive in modernity. They are neither mathematical abstractions nor the bearers of hollow titles granted by hollow modern institutions. They are reality. They are the core.

Olavo é um anti-iluminista. Uma das características da modernidade é que, de fato, você tem a perda da centralidade da Igreja como fonte do que é a verdade. É lógico que temos que tomar muito cuidado ao analisar um texto do século 18, mas se a gente pensa numa atualização do que diz Kant, podemos explorar várias questões. O texto de Kant nasce no século 18 a partir de um debate sobre o casamento civil. Poderíamos interpretá-lo para analisar a questão hoje do casamento homoafetivo. Nesse sentido, o pensamento de Kant é visto como algo perigoso pelos conservadores.
  6. ^ Peres, Daniel Tourinho (2 December 2019). "Quão obscurantista é o emplasto filosófico de Olavo de Carvalho?" (in Portuguese). Le Monde Diplomatique. Mais interessante do que saber, porém, se a interpretação A ou B é a correta, é saber por que esta questão ocupa tanto espaço. Não que Olavo de Carvalho ofereça um interpretação. Não. O que ele fornece é uma simples e pura falsificação, afirmações absurdas sobre o filósofo que não encontram nenhuma sustentação. Nenhuma, zero. Mas ele oferece isso a pessoas que querem saber, ou seja, milhares de jovens que chegaram até ele e que foram por ele acolhidos. Olavo de Carvalho existe porque existe uma demanda legítima, da parte dos jovens, por orientação, por uma explicação sobre o que está acontecendo. Se ele faz isso, e se atinge o público enorme que atinge, é porque há procura e ele acabou ocupando esse espaço. Nós, que trabalhamos seriamente com filosofia, precisamos reconhecer: deixamos o espaço aberto para que uma figura sem qualquer escrúpulo ou honestidade o ocupasse.

[Olavo:] Assim denomino o deslocamento, às vezes radical, entre o eixo da construção teórica de um pensador e o eixo da sua experiência humana real, tal como ele mesmo a relata ou tal como a conhecemos por outras fontes fidedignas. Raro e excepcional na antigüidade e na Idade Média, esse deslocamento começa a aparecer com freqüência cada vez mais notável a partir do século XVI, dando a algumas das filosofias modernas a aparência cômica de gesticulações sonambúlicas totalmente alheias ao ambiente real em que se desenvolvem. Um exemplo claro é a teoria de Kant sobre a incognoscibilidade da "coisa em si". Se não conhecemos a substância das coisas materiais, mas somente a sua aparência fenomênica, que esperança podemos ter de atingir um dia, a partir de indícios materiais, isto é, letras impressas numa folha de papel, a substância da filosofia de Immanuel Kant? Certamente o filósofo de Koenigsberg não se contentaria se apreendêssemos somente a aparência fenomênica da sua filosofia, a qual filosofia, nesse sentido, é radicalmente incompatível com o ato de escrever livros – e olhem que Kant os escreveu em profusão. Por mais coerente que seja consigo mesma, a filosofia de Kant é incoerente com a sua própria existência de obra publicada. Outro exemplo: Karl Marx diz que só o proletariado pode apreender o movimento real da história, porque as classes que o precedem vivem aprisionadas na fantasia subjetiva das suas respectivas ideologias de classe. Mas, se é assim, por que o primeiro a perceber isso e a apreender o movimento alegadamente real da história foi o próprio Karl Marx, que não era proletário, não tinha nenhuma experiência da vida proletária e até a idade madura só conhecia os proletários por meio de leituras? Ou a ideologia de classe é inerente à posição social real do sujeito, ou é de livre escolha independentemente da posição social, mas neste último caso não é ideologia de classe de maneira alguma e sim apenas ideologia pessoal projetada ex post facto sobre uma classe, também de livre escolha. Os exemplos desse tipo são tantos que não espero jamais poder chegar a recensear senão uma amostragem ínfima deles. Inevitavelmente, a semelhança estrutural entre a paralaxe cognitiva e a inversão do tempo tinha de se tornar clara um dia, por mais lerda que fosse a minha cabeça. (Translation: [Bruno:] What is cognitive parallax? [Olavo:] I give this name to the sometimes radical displacement between the axis of a thinker's theoretical construction and the axis of their real human experience, as they themselves report it or as we know it from other reliable sources. Rare and exceptional in antiquity and the Middle Ages, this displacement begins to appear with increasingly notable frequency from the 16th century onwards, giving some modern philosophies the comical appearance of somnambulistic gesticulations completely oblivious to the real environment in which they develop. A clear example is Kant's theory of the unknowability of the "thing-in-itself". If we do not know the substance of material things, but only their phenomenal appearance, what hope can we have of someday grasping, from material evidence, that is, letters printed on a sheet of paper, the substance of Immanuel Kant's philosophy? Certainly, the philosopher from Königsberg would not be satisfied if we apprehended only the phenomenal appearance of his philosophy, which, in that sense, is radically incompatible with the act of writing books—and mind you, Kant wrote them abundantly. As coherent as it may be within itself, Kant's philosophy is incoherent with his own existence as a published work. Another example: Karl Marx says that only the proletariat can grasp the real movement of history because the classes that precede it are trapped in the subjective fantasy of their respective class ideologies. But if that's the case, why was Marx himself the first to perceive this and grasp the allegedly real movement of history, when he was not a proletarian, had no experience of proletarian life, and only knew proletarians through readings until his mature age? Either class ideology is inherent to the subject's real social position, or it is a free choice independent of social position, but in the latter case, it is not class ideology at all, but merely personal ideology projected ex post facto onto a class, also by free choice. There are so many examples of this kind that I never expect to be able to list more than a tiny fraction of them. Inevitably, the structural similarity between cognitive parallax and the inversion of time had to become clear one day, no matter how slow my mind may be.){{cite web}}: CS1 maint: url-status (link)

A física antiga dizia que um corpo, se não movido por outro, tende a ficar parado. Newton contestou isso, afirmando que a força da sua própria inércia mantém cada corpo eternamente no seu estado presente, seja de repouso ou de movimento retilíneo e uniforme. Só há um problema: se o movimento é eterno, não faz sentido falar em "estado presente" a não ser por referência a um observador vivo dotado do sentido da temporalidade. No movimento eterno, tudo é fluxo e impermanência. Não há "estados" — seja de repouso ou de movimento. "Estado" é apenas uma impressão subjetiva que o observador, ele próprio envolvido no movimento geral, obtém ao medir os movimentos físicos pelo seu tempo interior. A tentativa de montar um universo puramente matemático independente da percepção humana acabava fazendo tudo depender da própria percepção humana. A física materialista fundava-se numa metafísica idealista. (Translation: Ancient physics stated that a body, if not moved by another, tends to remain at rest. Newton contested this, asserting that the force of its own inertia perpetually maintains each body in its present state, whether at rest or in uniform rectilinear motion. There is only one problem: if motion is eternal, it makes no sense to speak of a "present state" except in reference to a living observer endowed with a sense of temporality. In eternal motion, everything is flow and impermanence. There are no "states"—whether of rest or motion. "State" is merely a subjective impression that the observer, who is himself involved in the general motion, obtains by measuring physical movements with his inner time. The attempt to construct a purely mathematical universe independent of human perception ended up making everything dependent on human perception itself. Materialistic physics was founded on idealistic metaphysics.)

Especular onde ele nasceu é conjetura, saber se é elegível ou não é matéria de controvérsia legal, mas os documentos falsos são fatos brutos, visíveis com os olhos da cara. A mídia chapa-branca, que é a mídia americana inteira, desviou a discussão dos fatos para as especulações, e os próprios birthers caíram no engodo, insistindo em tentar vetar pela lei eleitoral um candidato que mais facilmente teriam enviado à cadeia por crime de falsidade documental. Napoleão ensinava que é preciso atacar o adversário diretamente e num só ponto, o mais vulnerável. Os birthers, iludidos pela classe jornalística maciçamente obamista, diluíram sua força de ataque, investindo contra o inimigo em terrenos onde ele desfruta de um estoque ilimitado de subterfúgios processuais." [Translation: "Barack Hussein Obama was elected president with false documents. His birth certificate is fake, his Social Security card is fake, his military enlistment is fake. Speculating where he was born is conjecture, knowing whether he is eligible or not is a matter of legal controversy, but the false documents are plain facts, visible to the naked eye. The white-plate media, which is the entire American media, shifted the discussion from the facts to speculations, and the birthers themselves fell into the trap, insisting on trying to veto a candidate through electoral law whom they could have more easily sent to jail for the crime of document forgery. Napoleon taught that one must attack the adversary directly and in a single vulnerable point. The birthers, deceived by the overwhelmingly pro-Obama journalistic class, diluted their attacking force by investing against the enemy on terrains where he enjoys an unlimited stock of procedural subterfuge." Note that "mídia chapa-branca", translated as "white-plate media", is a Brazilian expression, originating from government vehicles having white license plates, referring to media which is excessively supportive of the government's version of a story.]

Notes

  1. ^ According to the rules for names in Portuguese, the maternal family name comes first followed by the paternal one. Much like Elon Musk and Kanye West, Olavo de Carvalho is often referred to by his first name rather than his last.
  2. ^ In this translation from Portuguese, the colon is added so as not to give the impression that the magazine was about "Jupiter Astrology", i.e., the astrology of Jupiter, which is an impression that cannot be gathered from the original Portuguese name, since in Portuguese this would have to be indicated by adding "de" ("of") between "Astrologia" and "Júpiter".
