Even more than anything for Trump, Le Pen, etc. The amount of Bolsonaro supporters that have T-shirts with guns, bullets, and all kinds of violent imagery are the most disturbing part. It's as if people aren't even deluded they aren't electing an authoritarian.

Brazil election results: runoff looms after far-right candidate fails to secure majority– live

Fernando Haddad, who is sitting on 28.2% of the vote, has been tweeting. He thanked his family, his party and former president Lula, who is in prison for 12 years on corruption charges, for “your greatest leadership”.
Haddad said the campaign to defeat Bolsonaro in the second round begins tomorrow.
“We want to unite Brazil. It’s a different election than any of the others.”
Haddad says the election has put a lot at stake and he wants to face this debate “with a lot of respect, with a single weapon: the argument” and has vowed to “keep the bridges of the dialogue open”.
“We will defend Brazil and its people, especially the poorest people. I’ve always been on the side of freedom and democracy. I’m not going to give up my values.”
Haddad hinted at some kind of second round alliance tweeting that he wants to “keep the dialogue open” and had already spoken to three of the other candidates – Marina Silva, Ciro Gomes and Guilherme Boulos.
They form like Voltron??

Thank God people aren't so obtuse to the point of voting for some evangelical neoliberal bytch just because she's black.
Whatever party allowed the National Museum of Brazil to go underfunded and torch 20 million artifacts that's the party I want to lose....... and disintegrate

put a Ig thot pic with a bullet and skull t shirt on while claiming to be the first candidate of family values ,honesty , and christianity
a common point of his supporters is that criminals shouldnt be treated with the same rights as people. hes more like duterte than trump or le pen. its especially scary because there are people still alive who remember and lived through the dictatorship.

People have short term memories. The origins of the big favela criminal gangs like Comando Vermelho was during the repression of the dictatorship. Corruption was also rampant and even if they want to give the dictatorship the credit for the boom in the 1960s and 70s (though civilian leaders like Kubishek set the stage before then) they also squandered it and hyperinflation kicked in. No accident a big stronghold of Bolsonaro is the 25-34 age group that didn't live through all that.

People online are mad at the north east for not voting for Bolsonaro
I can't say I've watched their elections particularly closely in the past but I've seen some pretty sophisticated campaigns on fb and instagram. Certainly makes you think...

I’m surprised so many of you all know a lot about Brazilian politics.
Authoritarianism fosters a mob mentality among a population if the surrounding rhetoric and propaganda does a good enough job to rile them up and give them someone they can place under themselves and kick down on. Under the right conditions, many people willingly will join the stoning party and people will cheer and celebrate brutality as part of the mob and no one will ever stop to examine what they are doing as being horrific because it gives them an individual sense of power even if doesn't really do nothing to change their current condition. All they did is bring pain on someone else and used them to vent their anger against.
It's much more satisfying to express direct anger and violence towards a very easy to understand "bad guy" (minorities, criminals, political opponents) than it is to take on deeply entrenched monied elites that use the complexity of the entire political, media, and economic structures to give them their "elite" status in the first place.
This is why even though I think a lot of us just have an instictual reaction to "authoritarianism" being bad, there is a segment that not only embrace it but view it as good. Especially if you can frame it as a counter-culture to the status quo "liberal order". A lot of people are drawn to attitudes and movements that APPEAR to be subversive. It helps if there is a real problem that the authoritarian can point to to justify his actions like crime or drugs. People can then be convinced that authoritarianism is a necessity because in their mind if these things exist in a free society then a iron fisted government is needed to squash it.
Here's the crazy part blacks/mulattos make up 50% or more of Brazil's population and there is a black/Portuguese woman running for President and she only got 3% of the vote today.
Nah fukk this bytch, all talk zero action
PT and Lula fukked big Brazil, most people aren't pro-Bozonaro ideals, but the vast majority is against PT and affiliates, that's the deal
The sheer fukkery in this election
I'll lay back in my chair and enjoy this shyt :ohrlyfam:
