A false flag in Brazil?
Protesters have stormed the congress building in Brazil.
But was there a guy with a trident?????
Bolsonaro
Two possibilities for Brazil
Brazilians are currently waiting to see what happens. One twitter poster said they’d see the fate of their country in the next few hours. Others believe a (counter)coup will occur on the day of Lula’s inauguration. The Riotimes has been suggesting a coup may very well still happen any moment.
Calling it regarding Brazil
There has been quite a bit of talk about an imminent coup in Brazil in Far Right corners. The mainstream media is still almost entirely silent. Skynews had a short article dismissing some claims, but you know the saying about stopped clocks being right twice a day don’t you? Well…
They have rightfully commented on the massive protests going on every day for more than a month now, which have received little mainstream media coverage. Certain Far Right figures have actually gone to Brazil and are witnessing events unfold first hand.
9 days?
Bolsonaro has been quite since the election… too quiet. No but honesty, he didn’t concede, and his supporters have been protesting for more than a month. Every day. Ten of millions of people. Asking the military to interfere. More than 170 officers wrote to military high command criticizing the election.
The spectrum of dictatorships Part II
The coup in Brazil in 1964 and the dictatorship that followed it are fascinating both because of Brazil’s special history (due to Vargas) and its unique variation off the trends in Latin America at the time.
