1. good to hear. the amazon is at stake. no matter what lula thinks of it bolsanaro is a fucking disast

ter.

that dumbfuck is a dittohead, steeped in republican ayn randian wet dream propaganda - sex on the wrong brain absolutism, fascism.

bolsanaro credits "the brazilian limbaugh' for his election - a guy broadcasting from virginia who shows up in photos with steve bannon

they used talk radio to push the fascism and putin's been feeding it here for over a decade so why not in brazil too?

how ironic that Olavo de Carvalho repeated the mass murdering 'covid is a hoax' bullshit and died of it!
like limbaugh - 'smoking causes cancer is a hoax!'.......

2. Bolsonaro has been Brazil's Trump

My brother in Brazil would definitely want Lula. He can't vote there, but his wife can.
