Olá, bem-vindos a mais um post provocador! Provocador de consciências, pois claro! Nunca uma canção fez tanto sentido como banda sonora para um post do meu blog como a canção do mítico David Bowie, "This is not America" (Isto não é a America). Não sendo a América de David Bowie nem a minha, é com certeza a América de Donald Trump!
Hello, welcome to another provocative post! Conscience-provoking, of course! Never has a song made so much sense as the soundtrack to a post on my blog as the song by the legendary David Bowie, ‘This is not America’. While it's not David Bowie's America or mine, it's certainly Donald Trump's America!
Eu não vou acrescentar nada de novo àquilo que os especialistas em ciência política e relações internacionais já disseram, mas não posso deixar de mostrar a minha indignação, mágoa e tristeza perante este "novo" país - Estados Unidos da América! É uma grande desilusão para mim, presenciar o assassinato do ideal americano, o ideal que apaixonou gerações em todo o mundo, em especial naqueles países onde não existe liberdade de expressão, os povos oprimidos do mundo!
I'm not going to add anything new to what the experts in political science and international relations have already said, but I can't help but show my indignation, hurt and sadness at this ‘new’ country - the United States of America! It is a great disappointment for me to witness the murder of the American ideal, the ideal that has enamoured generations all over the world, especially in those countries where there is no freedom of expression, the oppressed peoples of the world!
Putin não precisou de disparar um tiro, um míssil que fosse para influenciar a América e os muitos americanos que votaram em Trump! Ao que parece são agora BFF! A América tornou-se numa nação que acredita em Teorias da Conspiração e onde a desinformação começa a fazer o seu caminho. O populismo no seu expente máximo!
Putin didn't need to fire a shot, or a missile, to influence America and the many Americans who voted for Trump! Apparently they are now BFFs! America has become a nation that believes in Conspiracy Theories and where disinformation is beginning to make its way. Populism at its finest!
A verdade é que Donald Trump em pouco tempo, bastaram uns dias, mudou o mundo, estabeleceu uma nova ordem mundial e de forças e, é neste momento uma ameaça à estabilidade mundial. Neste momento olho para a América e já não sei se é a pátria da Democracia ou uma nação à beira do autoritarismo!
The truth is that Donald Trump has changed the world in a short space of time, just a few days, has established a new world order and forces, and is now a threat to global stability. Now I look at America and I don't know if it's the homeland of democracy or a nation on the brink of authoritarianism!
Eu espero que os americanos de bem resistam como já o fizeram no passado! Eu não quero assistir à repetição da história, eu não quero viver uma III Guerra Mundial! Mas o que mais me preocupa é o silêncio desses americanos, os antigos presidentes, a oposição ao louco do Trump! Alguém tem de o parar!
I hope that good Americans will resist as they have done in the past! I don't want to see history repeat itself, I don't want to live through a Third World War! But what worries me most is the silence of these Americans, the former presidents, the opposition to the madman Trump! Someone has to stop him!

Quanto à banda sonora deste post, apesar dos anos que passaram a letra nunca fez tanto sentido, apesar de ser um puco vaga, tal como estes tempos de indefinição. Digamos que ela reflecte um certo desencanto com a América e com a ideia grandiosa do país como terra da Liberdade e da Justiça! Isto não é a América!
As for the soundtrack to this post, despite the years that have passed, the lyrics have never made so much sense, even if they are a little vague, just like these times of uncertainty. Let's just say that it reflects a certain disenchantment with America and the grandiose idea of the country as the land of Freedom and Justice! This is not America!
"A little piece of you The little piece in me Will die (this could be a miracle) For this is not America"
Oh, it is all very disconcerting, indeed. Thanks for your commentary! You look marvelous. And I love those sneakers. Thanks so much for paying such close attention. Yes, we are all wondering just where this is going in the test of time. Thanks again for your comments and friendship💕💖🌸🖤
This post captures a deep sense of disappointment and concern about the direction the United States seems to be heading under Donald Trump's influence. It's powerful how you tie in the idea of the "American ideal" and the heartbreak many feel seeing it overshadowed by disinformation, conspiracy theories, and rising populism. It’s a thoughtful reflection on how rapidly political shifts can alter not just a nation, but global stability. Your sentiments about the contrast between the past ideals of freedom and the current political climate are poignant and evoke real reflection. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on such a complex issue! All that said, you look amazing; your sneakers and outfit are lovely.
I feel like politicians and world leaders have gone mad sometimes, they behave in crazy ways- but then I wonder are they really just playing a game? Who is really in charge? Maybe somebody in the shadows is pulling the strings and politicians are just their puppets? Crazy times we live in indeed. Every day brings more disturbing news! I do like your styling and photography ...it feels very powerful! And perhaps real power is with us always, to live our life despite the tragic news.
Que texto tão impactante! É impossível não refletir sobre as palavras que compartilham uma visão tão profunda e preocupada com o rumo de uma nação que, para muitos, simbolizava ideais grandiosos de liberdade e justiça. As suas palavras ecoam um lamento por aquilo que foi e o que se tornou. A tristeza e a indignação são palpáveis, e ao mesmo tempo, a esperança de que, assim como no passado, os "americanos de bem" resistam. A citação de Bowie, com sua melancolia e imortalidade, traduz perfeitamente esse desencanto e a transformação do país que parecia ser a terra das oportunidades. O silêncio dos que poderiam fazer a diferença é de fato alarmante. Tomara que a história nos ensine a resistir e que, em meio à confusão, a verdadeira essência da democracia ainda possa florescer.
As usual love your whole look and your thoughts on where this world is headed. I share the same thought and want the right people to come forward before its too late. We don't need idiots in such powerful positions. :-)
