Idiot on the bbc argued that a continuation of communist corruption is preferable to the lawful election of Bolsonaro and prosecution of grafting thieves.
Oct 29th, 2018 - 04:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Makes sense to me.
Brazilians have spoken strongly by giving Jair Bolsonaro an unprecedented victory at all levels of government.
Oct 29th, 2018 - 05:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0No one, within Brazil or outside, can feign ignorance about what sort of candidate Bolsonaro was. He never hid his ideology and what he intends to do as president.
Whether yesterday’s election results could've been replicated in the absence of Dilma Rousseff’s impeachment and without Lula da Silva's incarceration, we’ll never know. However, the decisive role of the judiciary in Brazil contains an important warning for democracies around the world.
The rest of the world should not feel too complacent about yesterday’s election results. Brazil is a powerhouse of South America and the world’s fifth most populated country, and as a result the impacts of Bolsonaro's government will have sizable impacts well beyond Latin America.
Just as an example, the degradation of one of the world’s remaining lungs, Amazonia, is now poised to increase exponentially. The fate of this world heritage forest and that of its remaining indigenous peoples will be sealed by a man who never hid his contempt for minorities and for environment protection.
Brazil's new reality is no doubt a huge setback for the world and a confirmation that progress is not linear, but instead made out of advances and regressive actions.
Without disregarding the huge amounts of human suffering that will be inflicted, one fact is clear: By handing Bolsonaro ample latitude, Brazil becomes now a modern, large-scale showcase for what the extreme right can or can't do for a country.
Brazil will eventually emerge from this.

It would, but to corrupt it has to be be result of graft. Which in every instance has been instigated by a 'businessman' who has deep pockets.
There is a theory that if you place a monkey front of a typewriter, he'll eventually write something intelligible... Terrence proves this in his comment: “corrupt it has to be be result of graft...has been instigated by a 'businessman'...”

And it was not just the PT, but many of the political parties were guilty. Lula was just the head of the snake.
You better run Terrence, because Bolsonaro is going to send a hit squad to find you.

What you forget to mention is that Glenn Greenwald absolutely hates Bolsonaro: because he's very well known for disliking people in the LBGTQ community. Greenwald is a very outspoken homosexual. Makes perfect sense why he's p*ssed off about his new freely democratically elected president.
If Bolsonario start violates the human rights of homosexuals, I'll be unhappy, but I doubt he's going to do that.

Have no idea as to his orientation. I do know he is a Pulitzer Prize winner, which makes him amply qualified to make such an opinion. Along with the majority of major publications, so he's not exactly a gad fly.
Greenwald's an American, so in fact Trump is his President. Makes me very happy we don't have one.

I personally know several ultra-far-left members who live in nice neighborhoods and have vacation apartments in Viña del Mar. Nobody really understands what they believe, and I suspect they themselves don't know.

Anyway, I'm surprised you still have real communists in Chile. Do they hate each other more than right-wingers, like the stereotype says? It does seem pretty strange for a communist to buy a vacation apartment when other people don't have houses, but people are full of contradictions.

You'd be surprised, but despite being on political opposite sides, the level of intense dislike is very low. I'm very conservative, but I enjoy the friendship of several Socialists. Saying that, most of my friends tend to be conservative.
Poor DT. Why are you so ashamed of your land of origin?
