Batman, Moro e o gozo em meio ao entulho O neofascismo no Diário da catástrofe brasileira de Ricardo Lísias

Abstract

In his Diário da catástrofe brasileira, Ricardo Lísias analyzes Sergio Moro’s taste for Batman, drawing a parallel between the procedures of the Lava-jato operation and the ever-changing perspectives of the comic books. Beyond the fantasy about a hero who places justice above the law, this article aims at understanding how Lísias elaborates the notion of “neofascism” by bringing the topics of perception and focus to the center of the debate. The relationship between aesthetics and politics illuminates the contemporary right-wing turn and allows us to understand how frustration and the death drive have taken hold of the political debate in Brazil and have become society’s main driving forces.
