    Didn’t they elect the equivalent of Trump on their country? Or has that changed?

    I’m rather pessimistic.

      Are you talking about Bolsonaro? He lost his re election and ran from the country after he tried his own trump style insurrection and is now hiding in florida

      They now have a leftist government who actually cares about the planet and people

        Unfortunately the fucker is back here again. Quite frankly he should’ve stayed in Florida, he’d fit right in.

        hahahahahahah no. they are enacting the same right-wing policies except milder and less absurd now.

        much better but a far cry from “caring about the planet and people”. hes probably more similar to biden than any leftist.

        Yes I know. I haven’t been following Brazil’s politics in a while and thought Bolsonaro was still in power.
