Lula officially president again. His speech has already set the tone: Democracy won against dictatorship, no to fascism, Bolsonaro left the country "broke and the public services completly abandoned" though he strangely does not mention the pandemic at all (likely so none of the NPCs thinks to connect any dots) and even throws some feminist garbage about unequal pay, and he attacked the right to bear arms with a "the people do not need guns" and that he was gonna go against the decrees to let people get armed. And when he finally talked about the pandemic he said Brazil had the "worst death toll" (lmao) and how Bolsonaro was LITERALLY A GENOCIDAL MANIAC and how they are gonna investiagte it. Finally openly declared that the idea of controling spending is stupid.

Absolute trashfire of a nation. We deserve everything bad coming our way.

how Bolsonaro was LITERALLY A GENOCIDAL MANIAC and how they are gonna investiagte it.

I was right. They did want to arrest Bolsonaro for made up charges on the inauguration.

News Nation reported Bolsonaro arrived in Florida from over the weekend.

We doing a little Jan 6th of our own.

 

[gral]

Bunch of idiots. They just gave the pretext needed for the political repression.

Good luck with that lol!

Braziliano porquemano?

I think it might have been at least more "real" than Jan 6th. Lula already declared a Intervention (which is what the Bolsonaro people spent 2 months asking him for) and they also declared the guy in charge of security in the Federal District is gonna be arrested cause they claim he "let it happen" and "was complicit" (he was a Bolsonaro apointee, and they wanted him gone already)

Worth noting however that during the speech he gave on the intervention he went off script to say the investigations would be also looking into all the support and such. Which wouldn't be that bad, until he mentioned attacking the big farmers for their support of Bolsonaro. That is gonna lead to a shitload of issues, mark my words. The Farming and Cattle bloc are the biggest money makers in the country, and they are the real power here. BRICS and the exports of the nation all care only about them. There was already talk of farmers mad wanting to let food rot to punish the commie.

Come monday, the BOVESPA is gonna dive and the dollar is gonna skyrocket.

The socialists would have found one sooner or later. Assuming they didn’t straight up make up one.

Fuck.

Still seems to be some drama going down. Seems to be suggestion protestors are camping in/around the military HQ in Brazilia and police want to arrest them but don't have the authority because blah blah blah jurisdiction, etc.



(Caveat: I have no prior experience or knowledge of either of the accounts linked above, they just seem to be people (partisans in favor of Bolsanaro) collecting some of the videos circling about and putting stuff out in English since yours truly does not speak Portuguese Brazilian. Everything should probably be treated with skepticism and mountains of salt, even on top of other caveats about it being a developing situation and who the hell knows what's really going down).

In more disappointing pseudo-news, there had been some joking around and about on the internet about a Brazilian protestor with an extravagant get-up, including headdress, that got compared to the US bufallo-hat shaman. Sadly, he's not from these protests it seems.
