CONFORTARE ESTO VIR
“CONFORTARE ESTO VIR” significa “sê corajoso, porta-te como homem (1Rs 2,2).”
Bertrand Russell, membro da Escola de Frankfurt, é autor de uma observação que vale ser citada aqui, para que se saiba desde o início o que é que enfrentamos: “Usando técnicas psicológicas para ensinar às crianças, seremos capazes de produzir a convicção de que a neve é preta!”
“Usando técnicas psicológicas para ensinar às crianças, seremos capazes de produzir a convicção de que a neve é preta!”

This is an edited, updated version of an essay I wrote in 2008 when this now popular idea was embryonic and ragged.

An Italy divided
Two cyclists on opposite sides of the moral compass fought a politically-charged duel that lasted a decade
By Susannah Osborne
The rivalry between Gino Bartali and Fausto Coppi reveals the tensions in Italy between the wars. The two cyclists could not have been more different – their riding styles, their moral conduct, their motivations and their physical appearance. Bartali was a heavy-set, strong man with the look of a boxer. Stork-like Coppi was lean, wiry and could break away and never get caught.
Bartali was a Catholic, born in Tuscany and worshipped by working-class Italians. Signed in 1936 to the Italian Legnano team as a successor to Alfredo Binda he won the Giro d’Italia three times, the Tour de France twice (10 years apart) and seven one-day Monuments. After his Tour de France win in 1938, on the eve of the Second World War, Mussolini proclaimed him as living proof that Italy was a master race. The Vatican’s favourite sportsman, ‘Gino the Pious’ was blessed by three different popes.
