    >Marcal accused his political rival, who like him has never held a political office, of wanting to attack him during a previous TV debate but desisting because he was “not man enough.”

    I guess he *was* after all! lol

  2. Wow, that’s intense! A chair attack on live TV is definitely not how you’d expect a political debate to go

    Marçal (the chair target) is an internet guru who made news headlines in 2022 for leading a group of 32 people in a mountain hike, as part of a motivational coaching event. Things went very wrong as the group had no proper training or equipment and weather changed during the stint. They had to be saved by a Fire Department Mountain Rescue team. Although the police investigation did not result in a prosecution, the Fire Department head mad several very harsh statements about Marçal risking the lives both of his followers and people involved on the rescue operation.

    Before that, in 2010, he had been convicted as part of a group of hackers that stole money from people – mostly elderly persons – invading their bank accounts; he never went to jail due to statute of limitations.

    He is trying to use the same extreme right strategies B****naro addopted to win the presidential election in 2018: no real government program but lots of fake news and slandering of other contendents with invented, assorted charges. He accused José Luis Datena (the “agressor”) of having molested a girl years ago, although he was completely cleared from the charges. However, during the proccess his mother-in-law had a stroke and passed away, and this was attributed to the stress caused by the whole situation. Therefore, when the guy started to accuse him (falsely) to be a molester and provoked him, he loose all and went for it.
