The news that Minister Paulo Guedes (Economy) maintains an offshore company in a tax haven in the Caribbean has not only stirred the political scene. On social media, the subject yielded humorous memes from critics of the Jair Bolsonaro (non-party) government.
The images refer to the British Virgin Islands –offshore headquarters–, the rise of the dollar as the minister’s own benefit and the supposed connivance of sectors in relation to the revelations discovered by the Pandora Papers.
Some satirized the episode, comparing it to Guedes’ optimistic speeches regarding Brazil’s economic recovery, while others recalled other controversial cases involving investigations involving the president and first lady Michelle Bolsonaro.
