A reflection from Colombia Colombia has just spent one night experiencing the arrival of BTS and, amidst all the excitement, we have also seen how situations that do not correspond or are presented out of context are starting to be attributed to the Colombian fandom. We completely understand the concern regarding what happened at the airport. As a fandom, we also consider it essential that BTS's privacy is respected, and that is precisely why we are vigilant about the actions of Colombian media and attentive to any situation that may violate their rights or privacy. It is not about justifying behaviors that are not appropriate. If something needs to be pointed out, it will be pointed out. If something needs to be corrected, it will be corrected. But that does not mean that the actions of some individuals can be used to generalize about an entire fandom or an entire country. This is the first time BTS is in Colombia, and we are learning as we go. Thousands of people have been working for months, organizing and doing everything possible to ensure these concerts are a safe, respectful, and special experience for everyone. That's why we also ask for responsibility when sharing information. We have seen posts that use images or videos from other areas, other moments, or situations that do not correspond to what happened here to build a narrative about Colombia. That is also misinformation and unfairly affects the image of an entire country. We can talk about what happened, question it, and ask for explanations when necessary. What we do not consider correct is to turn specific situations into a representation of an entire fandom. Our goal remains the same: to protect BTS's privacy, maintain a good atmosphere for ARMY, and ensure that BTS takes the best possible experience from Colombia. And regarding the situations related to production and screens, we believe that it is correct to keep the conversation in its proper context: these are specific issues on which clarifications can be requested directly from the corresponding official sources. Requesting information, transparency, or an official statement does not mean attacking any artist or questioning the concert's execution. We want to enjoy these two concerts. We want to savor them. We want BTS to enjoy Colombia. And precisely for that reason, we will continue to act responsibly, attentive to what happens, and expressing ourselves firmly, respectfully, and professionally. Colombia deserves to be represented responsibly. (translated)

🚨 President of Andorinha, Cristiano Ronaldo's first club, made harsh accusations against Jorge Jesus 🚨 "It is a sad day for Portuguese football, a sad day for world football, and a sad day for us, Portuguese, given the way they ousted Ronaldo from the National Team. In other words, they set a trap for him, they tripped him up; he truly did not deserve this. If they did not count on Ronaldo... they are adults and should have clarified this before these convocations. There was no need to reach this point and get rid of the best player in the world, the best player of the moment, and the best Portuguese player. The whole process is dark and ugly; he did not deserve for this to be done this way. There was clearly a lack of transparency in the process; Pedro Proença was betting on Ronaldo... all that he adds, all the values he brings in financial terms. And Jorge Jesus, on the other side with a high ego, had to say 'I am the one in charge.' On one side, Jorge Jesus will gain all those who do not like Ronaldo, and on the other side, he dealt a blow to the best Portuguese player of all time and dealt a blow to football. They needed to sit down, talk, and come out of this in a graceful manner," said Duarte Santos on SIC. (translated)

In recent days, a website has been launched that allows you to redo the counts of each ballot box with data from the TSE.

The first round is scheduled for October 4. After the voting ends, the TSE will publish the received bulletins for totalization on the internet. They can be compared with the printed bulletins at the polling places. (translated)

I thank the media that raised and quoted the videos. Enough of covering the sun with your hand. We need to show these kinds of things knowing that there were kids playing sports, eating at the grills or in the visor. Enough of seeing the same lamentable spectacle, in the same place. (translated)

CHEGA DE SIGILOS E PRIVILÉGIOS: O POVO EXIGE TRANSPARÊNCIA NO GOVERNO! Sempre dei o exemplo abrindo mão de regalias e sendo o deputado mais econômico do RS. Sou autor do projeto que acaba com supersalários e com todos os sigilos sobre os gastos de Lula, Janja e as visitas suspeitas ao Alvorada! O dinheiro é do pagador de impostos, que exige transparência total! Para levar essa coragem ao Senado, lembre-se: neste ano elegeremos DOIS SENADORES e você não pode votar duas vezes no mesmo candidato. Vote Marcel 300 e Sanderson 222! #Transparência #Corrupção #Eleições2023

Se uma mulher afirma que se sentiu assediada e verbaliza isso ao vivo, a direção precisa prestar contas ao público. É necessário mostrar as imagens para que possamos entender o que aconteceu. Eu preciso ver os vídeos antes de formar uma opinião sobre o caso #AFazenda #AFazenda #assédio #transparência

Estados Unidos le revocó la VISA y prohibió el ingreso al país al Fiscal General de Bolivia por investigar a CERIMEDO. Para nada turbio che "No voy a retroceder por presiones externas. Voy a investigar. No voy a descansar hasta que el pueblo boliviano conozca LA VERDAD" https://t.co/8N0ieUcuQZ #Bolivia #Justicia #Transparencia

Senadora: el Departamento de Estado no le va a dar explicaciones. No le corresponde. En cambio, usted sí podría explicarle a La Guajira qué pasó con los más de 2.100 millones de la UNGRD para jagüeyes y maquinaria amarilla. https://t.co/hNniS44wyj #PolíticaColombiana #LaGuajira #Transparencia

Imagine se a globo tivesse o mínimo, o básico, de compromisso com o jornalismo e colocasse este vídeo no @showdavida ? Mas quá. Esconderam até o áudio da irmandade flávio & vorcaro por VINTE programas seguidos. A emissora cumpre um papel NEFASTO na eleição. O pior da história. https://t.co/XFFpVa1kPc #jornalismo #eleições2023 #transparência

Pagos en efectivo coordinados de la Moneda. ¿De donde provienen esos fondos? ¿ Son gastos reservados? Si es así nos encontramos en presencia de un delito de fraude al Fisco, lo que coincide con lo que escribía Zaliasnik en los chat: ¿A quién le puedo pedir gastos reservados? https://t.co/hqyh7jjYC5 #Fraude #Fiscalidad #Transparencia
