Cássia Kis defended herself in a text published this Sunday (13) in Folha de São Paulo. The actress, who has been the target of complaints of homophobia by staff and adopted a Bolsonarianleaning political stance, said she was the victim of moral harassment.
“The person writing these lines is not Cassia, the protagonist of TV soap operas, but Cassia, who serenely took charge of her own life after finding the clay of which she is made in the Catholic faith. I wasn’t looking for a confrontation, but I also didn’t want to look like I wasn’t at my age and with my scars. Very simple,” Cássia Kis began in her report.
She then said that the artistic class had politicized her lines and pointed out that she was suffering from moral harassment. “They say that if I take a conservative political position I would shame the art class. If only that were the case, fine. But the zumzumzum went further because it attributes to me intentions I don’t have, words I didn’t say, and crises I didn’t create. The pressure on me real moral harassment took on police proportions when word reached me that I had been formally accused of homophobia by a group of activists in Rio de Janeiro,” he argued.

Cássia Kis denies cases of homophobia
“I’m not homophobic and never have been. I’m at most ‘liarphobia’ and ‘idiotophobia,'” Cássia Kis fumed about the homophobic allegations she took aim at.
“My critics say that politics and religion don’t mix because the state is secular. But they only politicize my faith and perhaps imagine that praying the rosary, going to mass on Sundays and confessing to a priest are political acts. You are wrong. Coincidentally, the Cassia praying is the same citizen who has the constitutional right to voice her political preferences. One person, two different things.”

Finally, Cássia Kis says that every day she is stopped in the street by people who identify with her positions, an audience that, according to her, is outside of social networks and lives the real world. The actress also said these strangers did more to defend her than acquaintances who didn’t move to defend her.
