actress and theater director Carla Peterson commented on Twitter about the scandal carried out last week by the pre-candidate for Buenos Aires legislator Franco Rinaldi and for the repercussion of negative comments and personal disqualifications, he decided to delete the publication. His partner, the candidate for head of government and senator Martin LousteauHe came out to support her.
“It’s not a cancellation. It’s not a performance either. It’s hate and discrimination. It is not an artistic fact or freedom of expression. Apologies are not enough”, published Peterson, referring to the justification to Rinaldi about cuts in his streamings that went viral for containing homophobic and racist content.
The actress deleted the comment and locked her Twitter account
“Is a artistic expression of freedom, it is a moment of stand up, it is performance ”, the candidate for deputy for the PRO had said. “Nothing is further from me than any discriminatory act for any person, colleague, journalist, by race, gender, or anything,” added Rinaldi, who received a request to expel the candidacy from the UCR.
After receiving multiple aggressive comments and disqualifications in her criticism of Rinaldi, the actress replied: “I had forgotten how violent this place is. Bye. Greetings”. Immediately afterwards, deleted the original post and changed the privacy of your account to a more restricted one.
Franco Rinaldi regretted his discriminatory statements but ruled out lowering his candidacy: “Exaggerated and opportunistic”
“I kept selling cosmetics, Carlita”; “your husband is not going to be head of the Buenos Aires government, good luck with your culture of cancellation”; “Violent is canceling someone for doing stand up” and “when you say nonsense, bank what comes to you in return”, were some of the comments that Carla Peterson received on her Twitter account.
Martín Lousteau came out to support Carla Peterson
The actress’s partner, Martín Lousteau, was also one of the promoters of radicalism who requested that Franco Rinaldi resign from his candidacy for legislator for his homophobic comments. Before this Wednesday’s episode, the pre-candidate for Buenos Aires head of government who will compete with Jorge Macri’s list made a publication offering his support to Peterson.
“I want to make a reflection. Today Carla Peterson gave her personal opinion about something she knows: art and humour. And also about the values with which he always lived his career and his life. Something that is not worth clarifying for those who know her,” Lousteau began.
Lousteau prompted the expulsion of Rinaldi from Jorge Macri’s list
“Besides, said something true and without attacking. What followed was a nasty stream of disqualifications. Those who defend someone who wronged a lot of people, attack someone who didn’t hurt anyone. They show what they are and what they would do if they really came to power,” he added.
In the same tweet, he acknowledged: “As her partner, at first, I felt the impulse to respond to the attacks in the same way, but thanks to her, I prefer to respond that way. For them to come back again vomit their fury until they get tired. Because in the end we will always prevail.”
Lastly, Lousteau said: “Now release the dragons again until they run out of fire. Here we wait. Standing in the same place that we believe in and that we will always defend. I love you and I admire you More than you can imagine, Carla Peterson.”
The request of the UCR in front of the sayings of the candidate of Jorge Macri
When the scandal broke out over Franco Rinaldi’s statements, Martín Lousteau attended a meeting with members of the LGBT community in a bar in Villa Crespo. There, he proposed guaranteeing the effective implementation of the Gender Identity Law in the field of health and incorporating a pediatrician with training in gender and diversity in the City Health Centers.
For his part, Mariela Colettathe head of the Radical Civic Union of CABA, requested: “Together for Change was born and has its raison d’être in the defense of individual and collective freedoms. There can be no place for violent and discriminatorymuch less heading a list of pre-candidates”.
“We cannot share the same space with someone who advocates homophobia,” they argued from radicalism
In this way, on Friday, July 7, Coletta asked the Electoral Board of Juntos por el Cambio de la Ciudad that Jorge Macri eliminate the first pre-candidate for Buenos Aires legislator from his list. “We cannot share the same space with someone who advocates homophobia, machismo and discrimination against people who live in emergency neighborhoods,” said the pre-candidate for national deputy.
Once the challenge period has expired, the Electoral Board has a smaller margin to give rise to a request for expulsion. For his part, the Minister of Government supported his candidate although he distanced himself from his statements and added that he believes in his “sincere apologies.” However, criticized Lousteau for the request to be fired.
The presentation was motivated by a series of videos that leaked in which the pre-candidate for the Buenos Aires Legislature poured harsh homophobic, racist and classist expressions. “Shall we kill the dark-haired or let them do what they want?” is one of the phrases, to which are added other statements about Villa 31: “It is a complicated problem. Flamethrower,” he proposed in one of his streams.
