They charge for gas (the one used for cooking), ilegal public transportation, illegal cable TV (called gatos), and extort money from businesses and private citizens alike in protection rackets. How do you survive?

spivak posted:I agree with the sentiment that there will be no major political discontinuities for the amusement of gleeful rubbernecking gringos. There will be a lot of suffering, legitimization of death squads, marginalization of minorities, even greater influence of the worse breed of neopentecostais on politics. But no great spectacle, probably. Hopefully. Oh, well-off people in the US will probably travel to Brazil to stay at resorts while it's going on. "Oh, Rio is so much nicer now that the poors, blacks and criminals have been cleared off the streets with fire hoses and/or interned. Remember how dirty is used to be before the death squads?"

THS posted:you’re a loving dumbass just a heads up Not sure how pointing out a fact makes him dumb. Care to explain. Given that I rejected the war from the first murmurs that the Bush regime was thinking about it has always made me a bit wary of berating from people who naively supported it before waking up and realizing they were suckers. "Oh, I lost my innocence when I realized my government lies!" lol. Greenwald is fine, whatever, but he doesn't need his every utterance or mistake defended. He's a big boy and a serious journalist.

the guy who literally said:quote:I have no doubts – I would begin the coup on the very first day! And I am sure that at least 90% of the people would commemorate or give me an ovation. The Congress today is good for nothing, they only vote in favor of the president's projects. If he is the person who makes the decisions, who calls the shots, who laughs at the Congress, then start the coup at once, and let's make this a dictatorship.

Elias_Maluco posted:Also there is a lot of volunteers eager to do this job spontaneous, the police just have to look the other way. People have already started to feel like they can kill gays and trans people What this is really reminding me of is post-coup Honduras, where suddenly all this police and vigilante action was being undertaken to combat narcos but in the process of making Honduras the murder capital of the world a ton of the dead just happened to be left wing activists and union organizers. Weird.

Plutonis posted:I mean there was definitely an amount of astroturfing involved specially with the Whatsapp fake news fund and the MBL was born from Koch money. Yes, but most of that astroturfing is the basic stuff that is in no way dependent on the apparently magical powers of cambridge analytica. Dumping money on fake think tanks and "student's for liberty" stuff is as old as the cold war, and creating fake stuff for whatsapp is super easy and there are literally dozens of agencies that do it in Brazil. Im not questioning the underhanded astroturfing part. Im questioning the specific cambridge analytica angle. Not to mention that the American liberal establishment normalizing the impeachment played at least as big a role here as any of this stuff in de-legitimating the left.

https://www.investors.com/news/brazil-stocks-rise-investor-favored-bolsonaro-elected-president/quote:In a speech Bolsonaro said the country cannot "continue to flirt with socialism, with communism and with populism and with the extreme left." After his victory he pledged he would respect democracy and the constitution. saying that you intend to rule "with an iron fist" should set off some red flags also america is going to support another dictatorship lol gj everyone

the world is facing a crisis caused by the effects of capitalism and the only outcomes of this crisis are a worldwide shift to fascism or a worldwide shift to socialism, and fascism is handily winning. bolsonaro represents the blueprint for future world leaders unless something drastic and unforseen derails the massive amount of momentum that fascism is gaining.
