O algoritmo prefere treta a socorro

Hello young people! I ended up at Três Irmãos again — this time alongside my comrade from Guerra Patriótica: a researcher of World War II and the Red Army for over 30 years, a professor at UERJ, author of the first Brazilian book on the Red Army, and twice honored by the Russian government for it. Before any debate, he insisted on telling us what he does away from the cameras: he sets up community libraries out of his own pocket. He has already delivered libraries in Ribeirão das Neves — the most violent region of Belo Horizonte —, at the Bricklayers' Union, inside a camp of the League of Poor Peasants in Pernambuco, in the interior of Pará — and now he is rebuilding the classroom of the Timbira people in Maranhão: a community of 500 people who don't have pencils, notebooks, or scissors after the fifth grade. He spends R$15,000 to R$20,000 per library, from his own pocket, distributing more than 3,000 books per year — alone, more than the education department of a good portion of medium-sized cities in Brazil. Then the conversation turned to what really hurts: the violence in the countryside. Two weeks ago, in Rondônia, a farmer was shot dead with a .50 caliber weapon, fired from a helicopter. A BOPE captain celebrated the death on TikTok. In Barra do Corda, Maranhão, a PM major said, in a recorded conversation: "we killed two and seven more need to be killed." Meanwhile, the land grabber in the region has 14,000 hectares of land legally registered in the land registry. The conversation also touched on the pirate radio station he set up in the 90s to interrupt the news on Rádio Globo—inspired by Radio Rebelde in Cuba—, the late-night hacking of dial-up BBS in São Paulo without paying a single call, the algorithm that gives 70,000 views to a silly argument and 1,000 to a cry for help from an indigenous village, the humiliating offer Twitch made to those with 60,000 followers, and concluded with the scandal of the Meta lobbyist who forgot to remove his own name from the metadata of an amendment to loosen protection for minors on social media.
