    ”In Brazil, right-wing President Jair Bolsonaro has repeatedly downplayed the threat of the virus, saying on Tuesday that death was 'everyone's destiny'”.

    This man has already caused unprecedented sufferance and death among Brazilians and doesn't show any signs of wanting to stop.

    Jair Bolsonaro's tragic presidency is to blame on conservatives forces waging lawfare on popular candidate Lula Da Silva to prevent his likely triumph in the last election. They sought the most rightist available candidate -- and they got him in Palácio do Planalto

    The results are for all to see.

    Enrique:

    Bolsonaro is not that stupid; he knows what he is doing. He wishes that the covid-19 pandemic will kill ~ 6 million poor people in order to relieve the economic demand on the state. It is the same thing in Argentina with the residual Pro. They believe that if we loose 6 million poor Argentines, we become a first world nation.

    In the 1920's Argentina was among the 5th richest countries in the world with a population of ~ 12 million people. We never had a population growth control like most European countries. It was called WWI, WWII, and others. Germany, for example, has a population of ~ 80+ millions. Would Germany be so affluent with a population of ~150 millions?

    What these monsters do not understand that a completely out of control pandemic will not kill just 6 million; it would be more like 15-20 millions. Besides being something morally worse than Nazi Germany, that would catapult Argentina into the middle ages.

    Those are the monsters the we have to live with!

    PS: I hope they won't erase my message, again.
