Max Coutinho: shiiuuu...hush up!

Seated Cupide (detail) by Étienne-Maurice Falconet

I have been blogging in a free world, yet some people suggest that I hush up. Should I be surprised at such chutzpah?

In April 2008, I wrote a post about a specific People Republic. Some people implied that I shouldn’t speak of that thriving country lest their hackers would attack my computer. What these folks were basically saying is that I should silence before violations of Human Rights and pseudo-communist authoritarianism in order not to suffer an attack...

In October 2008, I received a very interesting email, by a fellow blogger, where he demanded that I’d immediately remove a certain post from my blog. I was disappointed to realise that a citizen from the Land of the Free (where even paedophiliac literature is protected under the first amendment) would want to suppress my right to Freedom of Expression.

The post that raised such despotic behaviour, also led other people to question my right to criticise Republican presidential candidates. Well, since the Presidential elections are coming up, I would like to clarify one thing: I am following the Republican primaries, I will follow the Presidential campaign and if I see fit I will pronounce myself on it. Do I have the right to do it? I do, because not only I invested in US Bonds, but also my family (including American citizens) have business in the US and thus the political designs of this country are also my concern.

In September 2009, I also received interesting feedback on an article about my biggest disappointment: I was to be very careful not to depict the Mother Land in a negative, and unfair, way. Apparently, I was to perpetuate the poverty campaign and not to mention the political obscenity going on there.

I have much respect for NGOs that assist the sick and the poor people in that continent, however I cannot pretend that African Leaders are not responsible for that social tragedy. NGOs do their job (non-politicised) and I do mine (politics).

In June 2010, I spoke of a very inconvenient truth: some individuals didn’t like it and reacted to it.
In May 2011, I questioned a certain catastrophe: it sparked a fiery, yet marvellous, debate. Yet some leftists began looking at MAX with suspicion.

My name is Max Coutinho and I am a Neo-Right Winger. I uphold Law & Order. I am against censorship and self-imposed gags (i.e. PC). I do not support abortion; I do not appreciate Contemporary Hysterical Feminism; I am not afraid of publicly talking about and supporting Israel; I am totally against Islamic, Christian and any kind of Radicalism; I abhor Homophobia (though I acknowledge that the Gay Community has become offensively Despotic over the years) and I have an issue with the Left Wing, specially when leftists betray their own people and do their politics under false pretences.

“Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.” (article 19 of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights)

No need to agree but let me be free.
