Find out why they relate and associate Celso Portiolli to those treated on September 11th
The narrative behind the alleged connection between Celso Portiolli and the events of September 11th is yet another intriguing theory that emerged from the creative minds of people, without any real basis. However, it gained traction in the Brazilian internet, especially on social media, turning the name of the SBT presenter into something automatically associated with the fateful date since 2019.
The curious phenomenon began in February 2019 when a Facebook user created the page "Celso Portiolli had nothing to do with September 11th," triggering a chain reaction that quickly spread across the web, with thousands of followers joining the fun.
Initially uncomfortable with the association, given the sensitive nature of the date, Celso Portiolli eventually embraced the meme over time, even making jokes about it on his show and interviews.
In an interview with the Flow podcast, the presenter revealed his initial reaction, expressing his surprise and indignation: "At first, I was very angry. How could they associate me with the greatest tragedy of all time? I was really upset." Portiolli also explained that the joke originated in Portugal with a local comedian and was later repeated in Brazil with his name involved.
Currently, the joke has become a kind of online tradition, with the Brazilian internet having fun every year on September 11th with memes and jokes related to Celso Portiolli and the events of that fateful day. The presenter himself actively engages in this humor, always adopting a light and relaxed tone.
However, it is important to emphasize that the meme is not intended to diminish the seriousness of the events of September 11th. The tragedy is remembered with respect, but humor emerges as a peculiar way to deal with difficult subjects, without forgetting the seriousness of what happened.

Conspiracy theories are speculations that are not based on scientific evidence. They can be fun to read, but it is important to remember that they are not necessarily true. Before proving any conspiracy theory, it is important to do your own research and evaluate the evidence. It is also important to note that conspiracy theories can be used to spread misinformation and harm people.
