Luís Fernando de Moura Cagnin

Luis Fernando "Nando" de Moura Cagnin (born April 28, 1984) is a Brazilian musician, music instructor and YouTuber who produces videos about heavy metal culture, video games, and politics.

Music and YouTube career Moura became interested in music at the age of 7 studying the electric organ, later guitar, both influenced by the group Blind Guardian. He studied in the Netherlands at the Erasmus University Rotterdam. Moura founded his heavy metal band named Pandora 101 alongside his brother Gugo in 1999, at the age of 17. He played guitar and performed vocals, while his brother played the bass. They released four albums and a few singles.

Moura was inspired by groups including Whitesnake, Iron Maiden, Kiss, Pantera, and Death. Moura explained his band's lack of success by what he sees as Brazil's lack of appreciation for quality music. In February 2019, YouTube demonetized many of Moura's videos, after which Moura released several videos complaining about this decision. Still in the same year, Nando Moura published online courses and a book called Masters of Capitalism.

Positions As of 2016, Moura described himself as a conservative, saying that he emphasized preserving the good that society had produced and supporting freedom in individuals' actions. He opposed treating homosexual couples in the same manner as heterosexual ones, arguing that the former could not raise a child effectively and arguing with references to Plato and Aristotle. He became one of the main criticizers of Bolsonaro's government because of the government's attitudes about corruption and the COVID-19 crisis.

Controversies In early December 2020, Nando became involved in a controversy with the musician Matuê, claiming that Matuê's music was poor and set a bad example through lyrics evoking the usage of drugs. Matuê had participated in the Flow Podcast, which Moura claimed glorified marijuana use.

In mid-April 2019, a false story spread among networks and influencers, including Felipe Neto and Brazilian website TecMundo, that Moura would be arrested for offending a college student. In 2015, Felipe Neto was convicted in the first instance for fake news about Nando Moura. The case was later dismissed.

In February 2019, Nando erroneously stated on his channel that Joseph Stalin had two Nobel Prizes. This led to mocking on social networks. The error was later corrected in the video description.

YouTube demonetized some videos on his YouTube channel for infractions related to hate speech and disinformation.
