so funny how our “third world” country has universal healthcare, labour rights, free instant transactions backed by our central bank and free higher education while people in your “first world” country have to sell their houses to pay hospital bills and eat plastic food every day
One of Lula’s most important and least well-known achievements is US capacity to sanction it into compliance is limited, because unlike Europe, Brazilians don’t need Visa or Mastercard to make payments.
Lula didn’t just beat Bolsonaro:
He beat Trump, Netanyahu/Israel, Meta interference, algorithms, the right-wing wave taking Latin America, and the elite billionaire class...
If Brasil just did it, America can too.
Brazil has just delivered something the world desperately needed: proof that the authoritarian wave is neither unstoppable nor irreversible. Bolsonarism was defeated, despite the political pressure coming from Trump's America. And the Amazon, once again, has a fighting chance.
never seen these ‘ethan klein podcast’ people before but from the little it showed up on my tiktok fyp i can say that they all look related (and israeli as fuck)
A pivotal moment in Lula's life
Fidel, the Cuban revolutionary, took Lula to task for considering ending his career after failing to become São Paulo's governor
"Listen, Lula. You don't have the right to abandon politics, to do this to the working class. Get back into politics"
BRAZIL IS ONE OF THE LAST BARRIERS AGAINST FAR-RIGHT IN LATAM THERE WAS INTERFERENCE FROM META FROM TRUMP FROM ELON FROM THE MILITARY FROM FAR RIGHT CANDIDATES THEY TRIED TO STOP PEOPLE FROM VOTING BY MAKING THEM UNABLE TO TAKE FLIGHTS AND BUSES BUT WE STILL WON
Lula didn’t just take on Bolsonaro. He took on the technofeudalists, election interference by Meta, U.S. diplomats, and won. Impressive and inspiring. LFG.
