Mother of all scandals: “King” Bolsonaro and cabinet caught with their pants down
On Apr 22, Brazil was fast becoming a new coronavirus flashpoint, but President Jair Bolsonaro and his cabinet barely mentioned the pandemic in a videotaped meeting that has triggered outrage and fuelled a potentially explosive investigation. Read full article

“The phrase ”useful idiot“ has often been attributed to Vladimir Lenin, but he is not documented as ever having used the phrase. In a 1987 article for The New York Times, American journalist William Safire investigated the origin of the term, noting that a senior reference librarian at the Library of Congress had been unable to find the phrase in Lenin's works and concluding that in the absence of new evidence, the term could not be attributed to Lenin Similarly, the Oxford English Dictionary in defining ”useful idiot“ says: ”The phrase does not seem to reflect any expression used within the Soviet Union“.

Whereas, ”the term originated in early 1950s America.“

Spouses may have left or withdrawn to avoid their criticism and combativeness.

Their grandchildren may be estranged from them because their adult children have asserted boundaries to protect their families.

I would agree with your overall insightful commentary, except I do take exception about my HIGH location...
The farmhouse elevation is slightly over 600m (MSL), located well BELOW the shadow of the high unforgiving Andes — capped by the nearby Aconcagua mountain reaching 6960m. (As the peak is located across the Chilean border — I literally can physically see Argentina from the farm on a clear day.)
Speaking of altitudes, Madame and my youngest daughter did indeed escape my “lack of compassion and antagonism”, and are currently encountering blissful peaceful shelter at precisely 3000m. My daughter's romantic breakup has resulted in an emotional re-bonding with her mother. It's a rare opportunity for the two alone, yet completely connected with the entire world.
Gollum is emotionally and intellectually incapable of understanding that normal adult men actually enjoy periods of solitude — and many times, marital relations actually are strengthened by separation.

Although I recognize the horror of this terrible pandemic — actually I feel highly fortunate and although it's still too early for reconciling the eventual death toll — from a Machiavellian point of view — by seizing the serendipitous opportunities my family has substantially profited.
By the way, I don't think that the little Troglodyte understands the origin of what spam actually is — but it's FAR superior to the Soviet Union tinned “ham product” that was offered with rationing coupons during the Allende administration...

Do not intend getting into a debate about the inmate and the buffoon but, had Haddad won the end 2018, without a doubt we would now be trailing the path of destruction, following the trend set in 2013/14....we'd be 1st cousins to Maduro.
The PT's (still) praises him...they defend him tooth and nail, and maintain that VZ is a thriving democracy...'n an example to be followed by the rest of South America.
Gives you an idea of what would have been in store for us had the inmate's 'post' won.
But I'm quite capable of criticizing B as well....while he does indeed give a lot of ammo to the press to attack him, their only interest seems to focus on the bad....they are even reluctant to say a good word about the government's efforts to ensure minimum income for about 60 million workers (contributors or not, to the system) who have lost their livelyhood due to the pandemic.
“Neither of them seem the type to dismiss the virus as 'a touch of flu'”....that, you don't know....but what about Lula's remark last week, in an attempt to defend mass nationalization, “just as well nature created the virus” ?....and his remarks on the 2008 crisis..“it's just a small wave, won't affect us”.

The Democrat party originally fielded some very very dynamic intelligent candidates (something like 30 total) and the final two — were Sanders and Biden. My impression was young progressives supported Sanders and Biden was bolstered by the African American and moderate vote of the party.
One personal favorite of mine, was Tulsi Gabbard although an Amy Klobuchar was eventually a strong finalist that is highly qualified and represents the Midwestern USA that was key in electing Trump in 2016.
What I admire about Trump is he ruthlessly attacks for the jugular of his opponent and the opposition really needed an intellectual agile candidate.
Despite what I think of Sanders as a socialist — I also think he'd be marvelous to watch debating Trump. Sanders has been fiercely committed to the same consistent message throughout his career. He's the underdog with the tenacity that could have possibly even won...
Then again, I'm just an ignorant observer that has been wrong many times...

And he throws Latin expressions around - 'ad nauseam ad tedium' just for one - as if he were a Latin scholar....when the sad truth is he is anything but....

It's pretty obvious that Lula only apologised because of the widespread bad reaction it provoked.... which makes his apology meaningless....especially because there is no doubt he still believes what he said. It shows his true, evil character, or, God forbid, would he say something he does not believe in ? (LOL...)
Fact is he thought he could be smart and score a few points at the cost of the government, by using the disease and 1000s of deaths....but it backfired.
While B is doing his share of pissing out the pot, we certainly don't need a 9-fingered crook active in politics again.
The fact he is presently out of jail, and going around making disturbing political statements, is absurd....but we have 6 STF judges to thank for that (especially those who resorted to political jurisprudence to overturn their own decisions of only 2 years earlier).

“We have 6 STF judges to thank for that” “The sabotage of Lula’s candidacy required intervention by head of the Armed Forces, General Villas Boas, with a veiled, televised threat, which swung the Supreme Court away from granting Lula habeas corpus by a single vote. As a result, former Military Captain Jair Bolsonaro was elected president, and Lava Jato Judge Sérgio Moro, who put him there, was appointed his Justice and Security Minister.”

Did you ever see the brilliant Dead Poets Society Movie, starring Robin Williams? The classroom depicted was hauntingly familiar to my personal instruction at school and if you remember — the bad character portrayed in the movie was defeated in the end. Do you remember why?
The bad guy hires a scholar in order to cheat in the final post graduate oral exam rematch, and the examiner (whose discovered the cheating) asks a question that cannot be accessed by written reference (or Google today) and yet anyone that paid attention during the original class knew the answer.
It's the same for the creature, who blithely and carelessly posts quotes from Wikipedia and yet really cannot comprehend the what the noted author is conveying to a reader.
(He can reference any subject on Wikipedia, but cannot interpret the meaning any more than as an idiom either.)
As Gollum points out, I spend my solitary misery and silence by reading.
What's remarkable and surprising to myself is the second or third or fourth reading of the same text by great authors like Pablo Neruda — take on a completely different meaning as our lives and circumstances change. (The wine you're savoring also has an effect...)

We've had some drama in my family. My sister's new flat in London turns out to be infested by bedbugs, and after two unsuccessful attempts at eradicating them, she has become unnerved and broken lockdown to flee to our mother's house with the kids. She's now fully prepared to abandon the flat, and all their furniture and belongings completely rather than risk seeing the terrifying bugs again. Her guy is not currently inclined to such drastic action, but apparently is coming round to her way of thinking.

Trouble is, the creature is not capable of reading and understanding anything above a primary school level, so he just does his keyword search and picks out any phrase that appears to support his argument. Even if he could understand the paper, he wouldn't bother reading it because (ironically) he doesn't understand how arguments can be supported with facts and logic but thinks a list of out-of-context quotes will do the job - and in his mind only his own quotes count.

I would also note that although I recognize this type violence does in fact result in part to actual social justice, it's not exclusive to see this type of violence and chaos solely in South America. Obviously, it happens as well in North America and Europe.

One interesting comment — Madame's friend, who was until recently — the romantic partner of the former owner of our new apartments in Viña and Valle Nevado. (Got that? Because it sounds confusing.)
She's now working for Williamson Balfour Motors repossessing cars from customers that defaulted on their lease payments. She gained employment by working as an impromptu arbitrator of her (now ex) boyfriend's two BMWs vehicle repossessions, which impressed WBM to hire her full-time. (Alarmingly, it's a major assignment.)
Her ex-boyfriend is of my generation, and was until 2020 a highly successful businessman — heavily invested in numerous commercial strip malls primarily in Santiago. His side business was partnering with restaurant lessee's in his malls taking a percentage of the tenants business. This formula was highly ingenious as well as profitable until this year. (We enjoyed two of the upscale restaurants and were treated with VIP status.)
He's remarkably charming and likeable — the same culprit that convinced us to buy the new apartment in Viña, then his below ours ...and then...against all my protests the one in Valle Nevado. (Despite my business instincts, Madame was typically correct and I was wrong.)
Unfortunately his personal life is a disaster. Not only he's lost his delightful and beautiful girlfriend, he's also reportedly paying altimony and child support supporting two former wives.

”Psychological Projection - Are You Making Everyone Else ..
Jung connected psychological projection to his concept of ‘the shadow’. The shadow is the part of ourselves we refuse to identify with because we deem it as unacceptable and not ‘positive’.
For Jung, projection happens when we are not able to accept our shadow and its gifts but would rather thing we are only comprised of ‘positive’ things, imposing a judgement system on ourselves we must maintain by forcing others to be the scapegoat for parts of ourselves.
Melanie Klein, one of the founding figures of psychoanalytic theory who furthered Freud’s theories, pointed out that projection can also be not just about denying parts of ourselves but also about connecting ourselves to others in a way that allows us to feel we can acquire parts of what they have.

Jun 02nd, 2020 - 06:01 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The Terryfic idiot has no idea what he's talking about......
”I mean he’s fantasising about “protection of mens rears.”???
I really don't know what his sick mind fantasizes about, but one thing he definitely does not need to (fantasize about), is bouncing up and down on top of Long Dong...and, with a wee dollop of KY to avoid chafing.
Gollum, with his slimy, bald head, reminds me of skinheads....skinheads remind me of the Nazis....and they in turn remind me of Gollum.....because, to think of it, they have a lot in common....didn't the nazis, when in Nuremberg, allege they weren't responsible for their acts, that they were just following orders ? well, with Tel-Bot it's just the same.......he makes (a lot of) mistakes, he posts fake news, and when caught red-handed, he claims it's the author's fault, that he just copied what they wrote.
A few examples : “Gen.Mourão served in Haiti”, “Mourão was Gen. Heleno's boss”,
“Bolsonaro's wife was weak” (that's why she gave him a daughter, not another son), and of course, can't forget his obsession with Brazilian toilets....it's never his fault....after all, he is not only a useful idiot, he's the 'perfect' idiot.
Immediately above, he refers to my opinions, as if they were lies.....funny, I always thought that an opinion reflected what one thought about something, which may be right, or wrong....but not a lie. Ah, and an opinion does not need to be proved.
But he must hold me in high regard - which does not flatter me at all - because it appears he carefully files everything I've written on here...he reads and re-reads my comments, gets a warm feeling in his rear, and then proceeds to bounce up & down on top of LDS..
That's why he posts so much of 'other' people's stuff...it's his M.O.
Calling you the 'fourth man on three-man tag team', pretty much sizes HIM up....excluded from all social activity and locked up in his smelly basement.
Sorry, don't think that feeble insult constitutes a 'title'.

My old English professor would disagree, but I find it a astounding miracle — that the creature has somehow composed three legible consecutive sentences apparently by itself. If true, this post we're witnessing is actual proof of the famous Infinite Monkey Theorem...
1. “I guess its tough when you're the fourth man on a three man tag team.”
2. “But, you're in the right place along with two revealed fascists and they're ally.”
3. “But, that doesn't matter to you as you are unable to stand up on your own.”
I nearly spilled my gourmand instant Nescafé in surprise when I read the above — and haven't been as delighted since long ago, when Madame taught our Dachshund — to lay down and rollover in order to be recognized with a treat.

Three original sentences and he only managed one without a mistake. Explains why he prefers to copy the words and ideas of others.

As far as what's happening in the USA, this 2020 year is looking like a combination of factors all happening today could cause an economic collapse in my primary export market.
I just read a report from an avocado advisory association that is predicting a large percentage of American restaurants will be bankrupted and the tradional food service chain will be permanently changed. Supermarket sales continue to increase, but if the USA goes into a severe economic recession — consumers will economize in their purchases.
A severe economic recession in the USA could trigger a similar ressesion in Europe and Japan. China already is in one. This obviously will hit hard Latin America!
I should consider reconsider my spending spree, but I'm sticking with the SAS motto of Who Dares Wins...
A lot of people I know are now in financial default and many are facing receivership.
There are large CA coldstorages in Chile, filled with apples that were originally destined for export and have lost their markets. The growers are screwed.

Perhaps you're right, but why would “changed” necessarily mean that people will stop eating avocados.....no matter how it works, people have got to eat....and avocados aren't expensive (in supermarkets) ...at least not here.
I had plane tickets and hotel reservations, all paid for, for a short vacation in NYC....21st May until today, when we'd be flying back....a disappointment, but had plenty of time to get used to the idea...on the good side, I'd be back here tomorrow, without the perspective of another future vacation to look forward to....but now, I can start planning again, to go when this crazy moment is over....not only regarding the virus, but the protests against George Floyd's absurd death.......just as well we had to stay here.
The restaurants I usually go to in NYC are the top beef places (Palm, Smith & Wollensky, Peter Luger's, Morton's ) and the traditional Italian ones......drinking great wines......once they reopen, don't think it'll take long before they are full again....keeping fingers crossed.

Jun 02nd, 2020 - 10:32 pm - Link - Report abuse 0In the last seven posts you are unable to marshal even one single solitary fact. That refutes my contention that half of you are bona fide fascists.
SOMA's, also states
“ex silentio-lit. from silence. This refers to anything arrived at based on a lack of protestation or argument to the contrary. A theory, proof, assumption or conclusion based on a lack of contrary evidence. Commonly used in the expression argumentum ex silentio-proof from silence
So now we all know who we are. Two fascists and two camp-followers.
”The sounder your argument, the more satisfaction you get out of it.“ Howe, Edgar Watson
”Strong and bitter words indicate a weak cause.“ Hugo, Victor
It is a maxim of equity that “The law respects form less than substance, equity looks at intent, not at form” ”The law does not concern itself with trifles“.
”It used to be we thought that people who went around correcting other people's grammar were just plain annoying. Now there's evidence they are actually ill, suffering from a type of obsessive-compulsive disorder/oppositional defiant disorder (OCD/ODD). Researchers are calling it Grammatical Pedantry Syndrome, or GPS.“ illinois.edu/blog/view/25/76120
“Grammar Pedantry Syndrome” is a form of OCD in which sufferers need to correct every grammatical error.” twitter.com/uberfacts/status/218151002707206145
“A pedant is a person who is excessively concerned with formalism, accuracy, ... Asperger syndrome often have behaviour characterized by pedantic speech.” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedant
Your bogus legal connotations that your buddy could claim criminal standard of protection of 'intent' for his words. Is blown out of the water by the legal definition of his words.
So other than personal attacks, you cannot counter any of my supported assertions. All you proffer is your humble opinions.

Jun 02nd, 2020 - 11:49 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Good question and I appreciate your optimistic view. Avocados are healthily delicious and have been trending this year with increased sales, as I recently shared. (One expected drop in avocado sales, was a 93% in food-service/restaurants.)
However there is a growing ominous feeling that we may be falling into a deep financial crisis. Sort of an economic domino effect that financially changes the entire world.
Currently Chilean exporters of wine and fruit, that have had enormous success in the Chinese market — are facing a horrendous drop in sales. (As you know, China is by-far-our largest market for copper, which we continue to mine and smelter, but remains unsold.)
You torture me mentioning The Palm, Smith & Wollensky, Peter Luger's, Morton's of Chicago and I would add Ruth's Chris — The only complaint I have with those hallowed temples is their outrageously overpriced wine lists.
I have no doubt, even the owners may go into default — new ownership will carry-forth those brands. (The Palm has just re-emerged from receivership last year.) However, a frighteningly large number of the other major and individual restaurant companies are facing complete ruin.
Imagine the despair of weathering a forced shutdown and then just as reopening seeing your establishment destroyed. Certainly, insurance and financing will help them recover, but for many it's a coup de grâce.
I'm well into a reliably great '05 Santa Rita Casa Real Merlot and trying to decide whether conversing with an alleged Grammatical Pedantry Syndrome fellow connoisseur of fine wine and bife allows us both a premium status in exalted titles.
I pity both Pugol-H and DemonTree might feel jealous and thus increase the status inequality which can result in social unrest. We are seeing too much of that unfortunately in the USA.
All jesting aside, it deeply saddens me about the senseless homicide of an African-American and I understand the anger, but frankly it has gotten-far-out-of-hand!

Is it because we criticized Terry's sexual activities with his dolls ? did he feel we were denying him his right to enjoyment and self-indulgence, no matter how obscene and disgusting ?
““ex silentio-lit. from silence.”...it's clear that he loves to copy arguments based on contradictory concepts, which he does not understand, as becomes obvious when two or three posts later, he denies having used them...it's always someone else's fault...the classic “Lula” defence....(“it's not mine....it belongs to a good friend of mine”)
Looks like now the bot is being somewhat erratic....it's sentences are mixed up and contraDICKtory.
After reading the first two lines, you know that the rest in just going dung-hill, I mean downhill.
Don't understand why he posts shit in Latin, then translates it - for whose benefit I don't know - even going to the stupidity of explaining what it means - which we all know, without his pedantry - is it to give the false impression he is a scholar ? it's sad that only he doesn't realize he's pissing against the wind.
Chicureo, I agree that their wine list is overpriced...but a their NY sirloin strip is unbeatable (as are their other cuts)....medium-rare and juicy, with a small crust on the top...wines that sell for $45 to $60 in the good liquor stores, vary between $ 140 -$ 200/bottle.....
The 1st Palm to open, nearly 100 yrs ago, on 2nd Ave # 837, closed about 5 years ago due to their decision to not accept an unreasonable hike in the rent...but the Palm Too, on the other side of the street (# 840), carried on. Last time I was there was end 2017....hope it's still open when I go next. These brand names are too valuable to go out of business.

Madame gave me an enthusiastic report and informed me that our daughter is interviewing today for a staff position with the resort! This somewhat disturbs me, because she's currently employed as our assistant farm manager.
An Argentine naval colleague shared this morning, a video by David Vaughan Icke that reflects his opinion about this pandemic overreaction — and I'm also starting to question now as well: https://youtu.be/PsRfFiGC-FA
(I also wish to take the his opportunity to profusely apologize for my clearly Americas' superiority over your African and Albion DemonTree's clearly inferior status'. This type of unjust status inequality — breaks the harmonious union which will in result in chaos as I saw occur last night in my privileged hemisphere.)
Fellow America Native Falangist Jack
I think everyone loves New York City and certainly we both adore their renowned steakhouses — that again you knowingly torture me by mentioning. However, the inept socially progressive mayor there is now very unpopular after last night's poorly restrained looting and violence.
Did you see the how our underprivileged Americas natives are actively seeking social justice with progressive economic reparation? Last night in Manhattten, the natives were videoed using a US$350K Rolls-Royce Cullinan SUV to ransack high end stores.
Now my 6 year old beat up Japanese discontinued SUV makes me feel really underprivileged... (I didn't even know RR made SUVs!)

Did he really refer to HRM as a lizard?
Of 17 million here in Chile, we've surpassed 108K cases, with 3K confirm testing positive, but of the 1K total deaths, but so far it's estimated mortality rate has been far below than we were warned about.
Madame tells me that there is even a bar/restaurant in La Parva where all the quicos gather, and other than loosely using a mask (dropped to their neck) are acting like there is no pandemic.
Anyway, rain is wonderful for the plants and even changing the electrical ionization of the air. The only time I dislike the rain is during the late grape season.

I don't know if Icke has made any antisemitic remarks, but I do think this deplatforming thing has gone too far. Protesting someone being invited to speak is one thing, but trying to get them removed from all social media is anti free speech.
