In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Crivella, Come Look” is a common card of the Brazilian Memes pack, number 173 of the collection, and the 1st best-known meme of its 300 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Crivella, Come Look” meme mean?

The meme mocks someone who reacts fast to something they find offensive while ignoring far bigger problems around them. It's used to call out misplaced priorities from an authority figure or anyone in power.

Where does the “Crivella, Come Look” meme come from?

In September 2019, during the Rio de Janeiro Book Fair, then-mayor Marcelo Crivella ordered copies of Marvel's “Avengers: The Children's Crusade” pulled from shelves because it showed a kiss between the characters Wiccan and Hulkling, which he deemed inappropriate. The move sparked a major backlash and was widely seen as censorship. The image of the kiss then spread across social media, overlaid on photos of potholes, stalled construction sites and floods across Rio, with the caption “Crivella, come here”, an ironic invitation for the mayor to act with the same urgency on actual urban problems.
