The Americas ðŸ‡§ðŸ‡· Federative Republic of Brazil Discussion Megathread

The political machine does. They are desperate to return to the good old kleptocracy. Bolsonaro has cut their profits way too much, and he has been giving the plebs way too much hope and power.
There's a cure for that illness. It's 200 gr of lead, applied directly to the temple. The cured individual will never be corrupt again. [/jk]

In all seriousness, these people are like ticks. They have buried in deep, and I doubt they will ever surrender that power unless forced to. The law has been twisted to their desires, and the courts are all corrupt. Bolsonaro has very few options, and I'm not sure which of them won't make him a dictator for life instead.

If I recall: Vargas held the Presidency quite somewhat longer (1930-1945; 1951-1954)
 
And it looks like(not sure of it, but it's what I'm hearing) TSE sent a judicial officer to a TV station in order to intimidate them and make them stop 'spreading misinformation'.

This tells me either Bolsonaro has won already and they know it, or they know they will win and the repression has already started.
 
The Globalist Elites have gone into complete desperation. They are unironically doing shit like listening to complaints about political propaganda because a wine was on sale for 22 Reais (no really) and the TSE has gone nuclear by declaring that Lula "needs" to have a "right to reply" meaning he will get 12 TIMES THE SLOTS for 30 seconds propaganda clips on TV.

Oh and the TSE just voted to give itself "extraordinary powers" to "combat disinformation". In particular they did this to let them skip any sort of trial or defense by reuploads or mirrors.

You can smell the fear.

My cousin @49ersfootball suggest you might want to take a look at PredictIt.org, where folks are betting like crazy between Lula and Bolsonaro.

That decision got suspended by another TSE judge - I think yesterday's YouTube interview* had something to do with it.

*Basically a YouTube channel interviewed Lula on the 18th, and they had 1.3 million simultaneous views - a YouTube global record. Then Bolsonaro went to the same channel two days later(yesterday) to get interviewed - and got at least 2 million simultaneous views(I've seen people claimed he topped at 2.2 million, but I'm not sure)

Some friends I've spoken to subscribed to Bolsonaro's YouTube Channel
 
Bolsonaro does have a YT. He does weekly lives on it and posts videos about the government projects he does and such. Pretty good use of it by him.

And indeed the TSE had one of their Judges order that Lula needing 12 times the slots as "reply rights" was unfair (or they realized how bad it was for optics) and undid it.
 
Because reality, unlike fiction, doesn't have to make any sense, we now had a shooting that will throw some more fire on the election

Roberto Jefferson is a politician here. Has been for a long time. He is a old hand of the kleptocracy, and was involved with the Mensalão scandal on the lower levels of it when he put his daughter without her having any sort of skill or reason to be in the Ministry of Work and was caught for that. However he has turned coat since then to a more Bolsonaro position, willing to just abandon his old allies for the new wave.

He has gotten into trouble with the STF and TSE, particularly with the big bald boy who is demanding Fake News be "controled" and ordering the take down of news they dislike, Alexandre de Moraes. They really hate him for turning on them, and as such they have been making his life hell. Police has shown up in his house multiple times to "search" for supposed "breaches of law" and other flimsy shit.

Today the Federal Police again went to his house because of claims he was breaching his home arrest and orders to not speak to media/internet.

His response was to shoot them, and throw a airsoft flashbang grenade.

Worth noting: Jefferson is not some model citizen or a good politician. But the fact is the STF and TSE are over reaching and obviously being biased.

Bolsonaro has responded, basically saying "you are both fucking retards" and ordering a judge to look into both of them. He calls out Jefferson's actions as being too much, but points out the frivolous nature of the actions against him and the political nature of the pressure.
