Oh, wait, there's TWO outlets that bothered to cover it.quote:A votação irá decidir quem governará 5.557 cidades brasileiras, número que exclui o Distrito Federal, onde a administração do território, incluindo a capital do país, Brasília, é exercida pelo governador, e também Macapá, capital do estado do Amapá, onde a votação foi adiada devido a problemas no abastecimento elétrico. For added effect and accuracy, you must say that entire part in the most bored and loud way possible and thru your nose. Holy poo poo Sic, you have a loving office in Brazil. You were founded by Globo. Saying "Oh they have problems on the electrical supply" like if it was the most normal thing in the world. I mean I shouldn't expect too much from loving SOCIEDADE INDEPDENTE "Oh, let's report on a fleeing native family whose dad is telling us there's paramilitary and farms chasing them added to the fire with a chyron saying "Indians upset because they can no longer live their traditional lifestyles and have their native diet like spoiled kids"" DE COMUNICAÇÃO but Jesus, that small statement like if Amapá had like only 20 people live there and it was a Malibu Rum advert.

The era of 'pretending to care' is quickly coming to a close. Be in in Brazil or the USA. Until around the 1990s, when poo poo happened all sides generally felt obligated to both show concern and try to act to alleviate things, however incompetently or wrong-headedly. Because hey, makes the system look bad if you don't. Around the 2000s, with the neoliberal veneer of civility fraying and the post-9/11 reaction showing how callous the world order really was, it morphed into just expressing your "shock" and "concern", but not doing much about it. It's the Katrina mindset; the bigshots got away, let the rabble drown while you fake-cry. Repeated with public funding on a bigger scale in the Financial crash of 2008. Now even the veneer is gone. Hundreds of thousands of dead people because having minimal societal organization is for commies? Tough. Distant state thrown back to the 1920s by power outages and a bizarrely confused private ownership situation? Their problem. Mining waste barrage bursts and drowns a town in toxic mud? They knew the risks. Stop the weepy poo poo, it upsets the markets! Late capitalism really is more cruel than slavery in many ways. The old slaveowners saw people as property, but they VALUED property. Losing half of your workforce to a plague would doom them. The current system sees people as commodities. There's a surplus so they can be replaced pretty much at will, and drained dry when the markets crash again and their taxes fund the next bailout.

quote:Um grupo de 50 empresários e executivos do setor produtivo e financeiro elaborou na noite de quarta-feira um manifesto de apoio à candidatura da chapa de Guilherme Boulos e Luíza Erundina, do Psol, à Prefeitura de São Paulo. O manifesto intitulado “Boulos e a necessidade de inovação na gestão de São Paulo”, ao qual o Valor teve acesso, será divulgado oficialmente a partir de hoje e tenta dirimir resistências da iniciativa privada ao candidato do Psol. O grupo endossa que, se eleito, Boulos governará com responsabilidade fiscal e manterá diálogo com a iniciativa privada, mantendo o foco no interesse público, como ele próprio tem enfatizado ao longo do segundo turno.

Welp went for the "upset tummy" get out of work free card after hellish insomnia tonight and found out that the offices chuddiest chud got the rona and management apparently just didn't bother telling us I hate this job and the money stock is okay enough to ride 2021 out i figure, but it's hard to justify leaving a CLT mostly wfh job with decent pay during a pandemic. However, continuing almost certainly will get me infected. I hate it

lol if anything, our portuguese legacy is all about the powerful saving their asses when the water hits there supporting boulos in the current condition is exactly the sort of thing clever businessmen can do to signal "see we need a new thing going on" without atm doing anything concrete, while also preparing to use the goodwill generated to sit in a better position at the table if anything boulos should be ready to push them hard while also putting on them the impression of "mitigating the losses", which means a win-win; has to been if he can pull it off though

Hell, I remember that back in 2007-2009 the corporate pukes from FIESP and their leader Paulo Skaf couldn't shut up about social responsibility, national development, inclusion and so on. Skip ahead 5 years and they were bitching about the nanny state and whispering that someone had to do something about the corrupt socialists in power ruining everything.

Little story about a successful Brazilian tech company, with foreign investors. I’m from the foreign side, and was seconded to SP for a while to see how things were on the ground. The company was, overall, very progressive. no obvious bias on sex, race, sexuality, cis/trans and so on. That held all the way up to VP tier. VP tier (below c suite) had 8 people. 3 were good, 5 were ok. 2 were women, 6 were men. Every single male GM, and one of the women, had voted for Bolsonaro. Every one. The lady who didn’t vote for him was pretty right wing too but more traditional.

Beefeater1980 posted:Little story about a successful Brazilian tech company, with foreign investors. Brazil has extreme wealth and income inequality, much more than the US. Which means that on matters of gender, gender identity and sexual orientation those who are rich enough are able to protect themselves from the brutality that is unavoidable for everyone else Brazil had a transwoman on the cover of playboy back in the 80s. Even as it has always been one of the deadliest places on earth for transwomen. Same thing applies for things like abortion and same sex marriage. If you're rich enough what the state does there does not matter. That is why you don't see as big a big gender or sexual orientation split on national politics, but you see it everywhere else. Meanwhile, in 2018 Haddad won 99% of the 1000 poorest cities and bozo won 96% of the 1000 richest. Edit: and to clarify, I am talking about state violence. Even rich women and LGBT+ folks still face a lot of violence in their personal lives from partners, etc (Brazil, after all, is the place where "self defense of the honor" was used). But in terms of state violence, there is no amount of money that will protect a black person from just being murdered by BOPE and there is no amount of whiteness that will protect a landless peasant from just being mowed down by farmers with state support. But if you're rich, laws regarding abortion, same sex marriage, etc are essentially meaningless to you. joepinetree has issued a correction as of 20:00 on Nov 30, 2020 |

Speaking of Moro, he is now a director for the American consultancy firm in charge of Odebrecht's judicial recovery. Just the most blatant form of self dealing and corruption.
