Brazilian top level politics:
"You are a Satanist!"
"No, you are a Cannibal!"
im sad to see there is no cthulhu worshipping candidate.
Actually Satanists and Cannibal were the same candidate. Jair Bolsonaro was caught on camera in a masonary house (which conservative brasilians deemed as satanists) and talking about eating an indegenous man (which is plain cannibalism), he also gave an interview saying that he felt a spark between him and a 13 years old colombian girl (which makes him a paedophile).
Any candidate got flak for participating in a jungle voodoo orgy with the cast of Deep Space Nine? (Dilbert reference)
I mean the guy did say he would be willing to eat people.
@@TheVoiceOfReason93 sadly, no, no one did 😭
I dream of the day when devil worshippers and cannibals can put aside their differences and focus on important issues like alien abduction and werewolves...

We had a former president (Temer) here in Brazil that we refer as Dracula
😂
That day arrived 40 years ago. In the US Congress.
And don't forget the 5G towers, they mean business!
You forgot to mention that Lula was convicted by a judge that months later would become Bolsonaro's minister of justice. The same judge was briefly running for president this year.
Exactly that was huge John Oliver covered that.
Exactly! I think the fact that it was overturned by the supreme court under a bolsonaro administration says it all
Supreme court isn’t friendly with Bolsonaro anyway
Sergio Moro (the judge) sentenced Lula in july 2017. Bolsonaro invited Moro to government after he won the election in oct 2018, mainly by popular aclamation because the then judge, as a Minister, could do more against corruption. This refutes that the judge had political intentions at the time of the trial.

Sorry it was my arm, I cut my arm and quickly went to vote for him
Latin America is, as a whole, in a crazy pendulum politically. Every country seemingly hates its current government, then elects the opposition, and they hate them too. And Congresses almost everywhere have no mayority. It's depressing. Here in Chile people looooved Boric in his campaign and whilst he was preparing for the presidency, but now he's unpopular. I think things will go alike in Brazil with Lula. We're up to deadlock in every country (only Uruguay seems to be well) and that is terrifying for democracy
Quick question: What's your opinion on what happened in Chile 3 years ago with the constitution and all that? I always thought Chile was doing fine, but then that happened and now things seem to be going down hill. Is there some context I'm missing?
I think that says more about the circles you run in. Nobody I know in Chile liked, much less loved, Boric. They were all tearing their hair out when he won. Just like most of Brazil is tearing its hair out now.
Brazil is a different case altogether. Lula had been in power before and he was particularly popular then. Even when he was wrongfully jailed, the people still loved him. Sure, with the rise of the far-rightoid in Bolzie's regime, he would get tougher opposition, but in terms of popularity, he's no match with Boric.
@@santiago451 uhm, that speaks to YOUR circles actually. Boric around 60% approval in Jan-Feb this year, and he had won the presidency with 55%. He was popular indeed. So your friends were in the minority. Of course I was doing an hyperbole with "loooved", is not like everyone was head over heels with him, but most people liked him and had high hopes
@@interregionalapricot1312 I know, countries are not totally comparable. Lula is more like Ricardo Lagos had won here (which he would never do, lol). But still, the pattern repeats; high hopes, then rapid descend. This has happened in Chile, Perú, Argentina, Colombia, etc. There's a pattern for sure
Imagine the 10000th order just being some bloke in Brighton or something close like that
You know they can see how many orders they have had at any time. Nothing is stopping them from telling one of their grandmothers to put in ten orders at exactly the right time :). Not that I think they will actually do something like that.

@@altobonifacio8936 Quick search says 2/3 of their senate would need to vote for that (theres probably more to that), which is unlikely with the new 50/50 split, my guess is Joe would need to have a stroke or something on live camera for things to get moving, but even then its unlikely, demorats won't budge.
The context which Bolsonaro's "cannibalism" history came, was in a event that a young man died in a tribe they were visiting and in the tribe there was a rite to every tribesman to consume the young's man dead body and they were invited to participate. Bolsonaro said that if everyone in his retinue agreed, he would joins too. Nothing really happened, but i think it's a pretty terrifying story.
Don't forget his motivation was "wanting to see a native getting baked".
Esse ritual nem existe, os yonomami negaram, disseram que nem entre seus ancestrais existiu qualquer tipo de ritual antropofágico. Essa história não passa de mais uma mentira escabrosa do Bolsonaro pra pagar de corajoso
There are people saying its "out of context" but im surprised no one is talking about how the context makes it all worse since the interview was about sexual exploitation in haiti, and that haitian women offered themselves to him but he would never "eat" one because they are too dirty, and he bridged the conversation to literal cannibalism.
And Brazil goes down the crappier once again.
Fora miliciano !!!

Im Chilean, and here a friend of mine said a quote that describes latin american politics right now: " i don't hate the left and i don't hate the right; i just hate whoever is in power currently."
Both sides of the political spectrum have dissapointed us so much throughout the years that no matter who gets elected, they will get like, 70% disapproval ratings in their first year, end their term completely screwed, the people choose the exact opposite candidate, hate him too and start to miss the old one, and the cycle continues. We go from blue to red to blue to red to blue to red.
People also here take identity politics to heart and create social divisions based on what party or which side are you on aswell.

The guy made a coalition with center right the first time he was elected, he is not much of a socialist. The political spectrum has moved so much to the right that social-democracy is assimilated to socialism. Same with Bernie Sanders. And using the term socialist to describe them contribute to the problem instead of fixing it, it normalize the far right and disqualify the left (often now called far-left).
☝️ This. The Overton window is so much to the right that someone who actually cares about people and working class and wants to return to Keynesian style economy, will be called a communist somehow.
Typo: people and working class instead of government.
An average warmongering liberals in the states are called alt-right in Germany, and the average conservative christian-socialist in Germany are called communist in the states.
his first term was pretty liberal, but it’s up to debate how much of it was pragmatism. he’s not a socialist in practice but his party still has a pretty interventionist and nationalizing agenda which goes quite a bit beyond what europeans would call “social democracy”. we just don’t know to what degree the establishment and political allies will be able to dictate his policy choices - probably enough that Brazil doesn’t change a lot.
Lulu's support of Venezuela's Maduro shows approval of the country's socialist policies.
@@bachvandals3259 AfD are not liberals
Also please remind people that the reversal of Lula’s sentence is itself highly controversial too. That explains a ton of the divisiveness there.
He was given a retrial over some technical flaws, and because of his advanced age some of the accusations expired due to time limits. This divided the country with tons of voters thinking he is still guilty and supporters that think he’s innocent.
It's not really, it might be unpopular, but jurists from accross the world agree with the supreme court (which didn't scraped his jugdings, but sent them to competent judges, who, mostly, anulled the sentence due to lack of evidence. He's been declared innocent not from the supreme court itself but from many judges from Brasilia, São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro as of today)
its a rabbit hole of weird stuff.
Lula was prosecuted by an "anti-corruption" organization (Car wash) that after Lula's arrest was disbanded when they probed into Bolsonaro's family.
@@matheusd.rodrigues429 they don’t tho. International Transparency praises the Car Wash operation, but condemns the misconduct of Moro. It is a highly controversial case as Mani Pulite was in Italy (which had a similar outcome).

It's called Socialism. You use money to buy votes and political support and pocket the rest and eventually the country runs out of money, the currency becomes worthless and the economy dies followed by the people who depend on it. Venezuela did that and it led to thousands starving to death or getting shot by gangs. I guess Brazil is next.

tbh I don't think the clean slate law was ever applied, Lula was kept from running because they asked the supreme court if someone who was at the time in jail could run and they said no
Hi TLDR - you guys are my favorite RUclips channel! I wanted to request a video on recent Pakistani politics because it is currently VERY interesting. I think you would enjoy researching it and many would enjoy watching it. It would be great if you could consider it!
I wish there was space for a reject vote on ballots where there is an option to reject all of the candidates on the ballot and if the rejections win (majority), a new election would be held where the rejected candidates were no longer on a ballot for the new election. This would help reduce the candidate tendencies to run negative campaigns by negotiating with the competition to avoid a general rejection.
Reject in the second ballot? Sounds like a terrible idea
That would draw out elections to unacceptable lengths and increase the opportunities for fraud.
I believe what you are refering to is a blank vote, which does exist in some countries voting procedures. But in this case it was a runoff, a 2nd round between the most voted candidates from the 1st round. It would have no effect other than chaos to do that on the 2nd round, because you can always use the difference of the 1st round of voting in case of tie or the bank votes winning.
in brazil, we have something called the blank vote. you can vote blank whenever you want. But it doesn't mean the election will be canceled if people reject every single candidate
@@logangrifo brazil has the blank vote on both rounds

I think it's important to point out that Lula is not a socialist, he was quite hard-left during the 90s but as time went on he moved more and more towards the center, because (as he said it himself) he was tired of losing. Nowadays he's a center-leftist who has good relations with Cuba and Venezuela. Nothing really beyond that.
He was wearing a CPX hat and had a presentation in Morro do Alemão (Germans hill, it’s a place) which is controlled by a highly dangerous mafia, comando vermelho (the red command). When he won, videos of jail inmates started celebrating non-stop and videos of slum thugs shooting up the sky celebrating his victory. Pretty much shows what he is going to do: let them run free and do as they want. No justice, for they are just “victims of society”. Look up how Cuba, Venezuela and Argentina are like now. Hundreds of Venezuelan refugees are here escaping from dictator Maduro because they will be shot if they say a word against him, and guess who Maduro celebrated? Lula.

Epstein was never convicted either. Neither was Stalin or Fidel Castro or Kim Jung Il or Mao.

In Brazil there is a Law that people convicted twice (first by a 1st degree judge then by a collegiate of 3 judges in the 2nd degree) cannot run. Lula appealed and lost unanimous in all 3 degrees of the Brazilian justice.
A Supreme Court Justice appointed by his Party and who campaigned for his Party in previous elections cancelled all Lulas convictions claiming some files were submitted to the wrong court

It would have been useful if you could have included Bolsanaro's proposed manifesto, and also speak about Brasil's Supreme Court authoritarian senior judge Moraes who seems to wield more power than the president, acting as a unilateral accuser, judge, jury and sentencer of journalists.
You should have noted that he wasn’t president when he was arrested and convicted (and later had his conviction annulled).
NO he was a criminal before that. I'm sure that makes a difference. The World Economic Forum doesn't seem to care they just want him there to wreak the country so it can be pillaged and raped by the west after it collapses as a result of socialist policies.
I want to know more about the other political parties and candidates in Brazilian politics. Can someone point me towards some good sources?
It's a bottomless hole.
@@NightOwl_30 The top 5 political parties and organizations then, maybe?
Yes, it's a mess:
PL (Liberal Party): Bolsonaro's party, now with the most MPs but far from a majority.
They formed a coalition with Republicanos (Republican Party) and Progressistas (Progressive Party)
PT: workers' party, was in power from 2003 to 2010 with Lula and from 2011 to 2016 with Dilma. Dilma should have kept office until 2018, but was impeached, which many in the left consider a coup.
They formed a coalition with PCdoB (Communist Party of Brazil), PV (Green Party), PSB (Brazilian Socialist Party), PSOL (Socialism and Freedom Party), Rede (Sustainability Network), Avante (Ahead, a centrist party) and Agir (aka Christian Labour Party).
MDB (Brazilian Democratic Movement): center party that was in power between 2016 and 2018. They were the ones that led the impeachment/coup against Dilma. This year, their candidate Simone Tebet came in third place at the 1st round, but in the second round she fully supported Lula and helped him in the campaign.
União Brasil(Union Brazil): a center party. Their candidate, Soraya Thronicke, came in 5th place and her campaigning was focused on a proposal to reduce taxes. They didn't support anyone officially in the 2nd round, with each member being free to choose. They elected Sergio Moro as senator, the ex-judge that imprisioned Lula and was later considered to be partial. There's already talks of the party cooperating with Lula's government though.
PDT (Democratic Workers' Party): a left-wing party. In the first round they had their own candidate, Ciro Gomes, that came in fourth place. During the campaign, Ciro painted Lula as being just as bad as Bolsonaro, but in the 2nd round the party supported Lula. Many consider their proposals to be even more left-wing than Lula's, although a lot of Ciro voters chose Bolsonaro in the 2nd round.
PSDB (Brazilian Social Democratic Party): a right-wing party, despite the name. For decades, they had been the main right-wing competitors against PT, but this year they were really reduced, since most of their voters now chose PL. In the first round they supported MDB's Simone Tebet, and remained officially neutral in the 2nd round, with famous politicians that supported both PT and PL. They have been the governors of São Paulo, our largest state, since forever, but this year they lost it to a minister of Bolsonaro. In some states their governor candidates were supported by the workers' party if the other candidate in the 2nd round was a bolsonarist.
PTB (Workers' Party of Brazil): despite the name, a very right-wing party. Their candidate in the 1st round was a fake orthodox priest that openly supported Bolsonaro in debates. Their president, Roberto Jefferson, was imprisioned and resisted the police with gunshots and grenades one week before the elections, and many believe this may have gained votes for Lula.
Novo (New Party): right-wing, neoliberal party, literally the rich people's party. They were strong in 2018, but this year lost most of their voters to Bolsonaro. In the second round, they remained officially neutral, but expelled any members that declared they'd vote for Lula, including their former leader and candidate in 2018, João Amoedo.
@@joaomarcoscardosodasilva2877 Thanks, João. Much appreciated!!!
@@joaomarcoscardosodasilva2877 After reading that it seems to me that Lula/PT and their coalition partners are the best choice for the future of Brazil and the world in general. Hopefully they will be successful in forming the government coming months!
This has to be the of all time
Tldr news is so good
"Zekenksy is partially to blame" is a really dumb take though.
It's like those who claim women who get raped are to blame because they dressed a certain way.
Russia is just an incel that didn't get it's way because their attitude drives people away from them. Rather than change themselves they'd rather try to force others.
It's how he stays neutral with people that are hardliners for BRICS, eventually he will force Russia & China out as they are intent on erasing Brazil's tourism & plundering their resources.
His successor Dilma Rousseff, from the same party, actually sided completely with Russia.
Yes you can argue that previous Ukrainian government can share some blame but Zelensky had nothing to do with it
@@AmirSatt There is no blame for an invaded country when the only reason the invading country comes is to annex regions. There is a reason why people say "partially" but never reference any reason for that. Because there isn't.
This was so hard and took so long... But we won! 🇧🇷🌟 The government will change and we will be respected again.
They will laugh at us internationally and unfortunately I would have to agree with them.
@@nomenomeha30anosatras33 Nobody cares about your idiotic politics.
Yeah, just like Venezuela. People really respect a failed socialist state where the citizens eat their pets because they ran out of food because they printed too much money because they overspent because they voted for a socialist who said I will give you everything and it will cost you nothing and you were too stupid to question it! Congregations, Klaus Swab and the World Economic Forum respect you now. Now you have their permission to die so they can build back better. When your economy fails and your society fragments, the IMF will come in and offer to bail you out after you privatize all your industries and let foreign companies come in and loot and rape what's left of your desiccated courpse. R.I.P. Brazil.
Comments that aged like milk.
@@MrShadowThief it is happening, honey
*Not october 20th. The election was held on sunday, oct 30th
The choice was between an admirer of military dictatorship and a supporter of Venezuelan and Cuban dictatorships
A few mistakes: during the 1960s and 70s Brasil used to grow 10% a year, with 1971 growing 15%. So the economy didn’t grow at the fastest rate under Lula
This time was during the military dictatorship, it is worth mentioning
only because the economy had collapsed before that...
I think he meant 21st century by modern history (Brazil's democracy didn't start under fhc). Besides, the economic growth under Medici/Geisel is heavily misleading because inflation was much higher at the time. That is why, despite growing so much, the minimum wage (which was frozen during the whole period) lost much of its purchasing power under the economic 'miracle'.
@@Javra88 also is good to metion the chaos that came after, the 80s were knew as the lost decade.
The real story is why he won by such a small margin
Police and Bolsonaro supporters blocked roads to stations in poorer areas and areas likely to vote Lula
it's because the government was buying votes, more than any other. Lula would win with 60% of the total votes
because he's a thief and everybody knows it... despite this youtube propaganda
Bolsonaro used the state apparatus to basically buy the vote. Massive money handouts, artificial price cuts on fuel, subsidies to truckers, 33% increase in teacher's pay (without considering if the states can pay this increase), and a massive increase in propaganda spending (while, ironically, saying he ended the spending with propaganda)
There is a actual conspiracy theory that Bolsonaro throwed cards to make Lula be his competitor becase he was the only other person unpopular enought to make Bolsonaro have a shot.
If by some miracle I'm the 10K order, I don't drink. I hope pizza will be an acceptable alternative.
Come on people from Fiji and Kiribati, order something!
And here I thought Brazil couldn't get anymore worse.
Lula's policies were not succesful, the economy grew because of the commodities boom, in fact it led to the crysis faced in Dilma's government.
We say here in Brazil that love is like gasoline, it's expensive, it's short-lived, and you can replace it with alcohol.
Now that the truckers are gone, get ready for fuel stations to run out of gas, etanol and diesel soon, prices will skyrocket like the last time truckers gone on strike.
4 years of Bolsonaro making diesel prices more and more expensive, and truckers never went on strike like they done before.
6:40 that made me laught so hard...
Bolsonaro: If you count the legal votes I easily win
Yup.
*Brazilian politics survival guide:*
Never trust a word said by Lula or Bolsonaro supporters
THIS .
cult of personality fucking sucks in politics, and we who just want to get things done and be pragmatical have to deal with this and with ideologies :(
as braziian that never stand foot on brazil and understand nothing about its politics this is the only thing that i understand.
i hate this cultish politics
That's what I say for people, just looking in this comment section filled with a bunch of foreigners that don't have a clue of what is happening here in Brazil makes me cringe a little bit
This
What a cluster..good luck.
4:25 everyone in the us, dose this sound familiar?
In my humble opinion you should have much, but much more knowledge about brazilian culture, history and politics to comment this process.
My only ask is for you to observe what’s going to happen to Brazil in the next new years during the administration of this person, who has already been president for two consecutive terms and was responsible for the biggest corruption scandal in the history of the mankind. Now this same criminal is back in power supposedly by popular vote.
It’s a sad state of affairs and unfortunately, the only one losing will be the brazilian population.
I hope I’m wrong.
All the best
the only corruption was the fascist judge who put him in jail not themselves being thrown in jail after it was found the ruled incorrectly
@@afgor1088 so, in your mind there were no crimes? How do you explain the money return by the ones involved to have their sentences reduced?
Just wait and see what this thief os going to do. Wait and see.
And there’s another interesting miss conception by your part: he was sentenced by a judge, appealed and was sentenced by a college of judges, appealed to the Supreme Court and lost for the third time, so, he was not judged and sentenced by only one individual. More than 8000 pieces of evidence. Billionaire losses to Petrobras and other state owned companies, dozens sent to prison.
Stop believing in narratives and stick to the facts!
honestly, we don’t *need* him to concede to anything lol while he waited in silence like a child for nearly three days, the rest of government got on without him, preparing transition. he only said something because it was getting ridiculous
Brought
Hopefully TLDR won’t appear at your door like James Corden in a rat suit on a crosswalk.
So Brasil will be like Singapore: neutral and non-aligned
Singapore is actually neutral so it condemns countries when they clearly have done something wrong. That’s why Singapore actually sanctioned Russia. Brazil will be like india where they only care about making money
Not quite, Lula still has a subtle Anti-Us and Anti-Western stance, he will always be open to business and trade, but politically? Not so much.
Do you know what censorship is? If Lula is, you won’t even be able to know what we will become, because the censorship department will silence anything that goes against Lula’s word!
Singapore is not neural, it's millitary are trained in countries such as Australia, United States and France. All liberal democracies. I don't see the Singapore millitary in Iran, Russia and Communist China.
@@freeman10000 actually, they are really friendly with China.
there's a reason they held the talks between N. Korea and USA.
Just watch Polymatter's video
So much for Great Value Trump.
Even that feels like romanticizing him
We are seeing the end of nationalism. Our world will now be run entirely by scumbags who work for the World Economic Forum and they will wreak our countries so they can be built back worse!
2 pounds of feathers? or what.
The "crème de la crème" of Brazilian society, who assumed the federal government in 2019, this masterpiece that the various social, political and economic segments of the country have toasted to govern the Republic, this pantheon of the quintessence of the homeland historical-cultural formation, is the scarred and shameless portrait and mirror of the majority of the ruling class, which, from the height of its pride and greed, of its deep-rooted stubbornness in perpetuating ad æternum the "Casa Grande" to the detriment of the "Senzala", makes Brazil one of the countries with the highest concentration of national income in the world!
Plot twist: the 10000th order is in Ukraine.
I hope things go well for him
They will. He will purge his political enemies, set up a socialist state, skim off millions of dollars from the tax payers and when he finally office the county's currency will be worthless and the economy will be in ruins. R.I.P. Brazil.
It won't
It didn't.
The fact that your assessment of this situation is so skewed and ignorant of the facts makes me re-evaluate what else you may be misinformed or ignorant about. I appreciated TLDR as a news source because I found it concise and seemingly accurate in its coverage. But if you can cover this story without talking about the excesses of the Brazilian Supreme Court and its justices (particularly Alexandre de Moraes) and how they manipulated Brazil's justice system to overturn Lula's convictions on a technicality, to intimidate, coerce and often arrest conservative media figures, to censor speech which offended Lula (while letting the media and Lula's campaign call Bolsonaro everything from racist to genocidal to pedophile), and to overlook inequalities in the way campaign spots we played on the radio (supposedly guaranteed equal time by electoral laws), you're missing the forest for the trees.
The truth is the most powerful man in Brazil is not Bolsonaro or Lula: it is Alexandre de Moraes. And the truth is the Worker's Party's previous terms in power corrupted every single part of the state of Brazil, every ministry, every branch of government. EVERYTHING worked on the basis of bribes and extortion. It took courage and hard work to remove this octopus (literally and figuratively) from our government before, and now it's back, like a thief returning to the crime scene. It's a sad day for Brazil and for the future of our children.
Nice!
I never loved Lula or anything, but I was glad to vote for him after 4 years of madness under Bolsonaro. It’s a pity that people became fanatics, there are many asking for a coup right now 😢
Lula e pior
If the summary of his programs here are accurate, I think he is a pretty...standard center-ish president? With how crazy and polarizing politics is nowadays, that is exactly a president I want. Provide shield for the poorest communities and provide condusive environment for businesses to grow. For the rest of stuffs, just elect decent non-problematic ministers and minimize stupid controvercies and tada, you already become my ideal president.
in brazil, that's considered leftwing
Hes not a centrist. His policies are all left of center
He is a center right politician with leftist rhetoric.
@@joaopedrocruz6432 Lula??? Lula is only center right if center left is actively dismantling capitalism
@@benmaiorella6296 Lula didn't make any socialist or non market policy in all the time in his past presidency, at most he is a Keynesian.
Why bother with a two round process? Just make it a preferential system first time around, because that's all this is in the end! So inefficient!
51% I want a another vote ! Hahaha
That's assuming the election wasn't rigged. Bolsonaro had much larger crowds then Lola so it could be closer to 70. 70 percent of Venezuans hate Nicholas Madero but he wins every election with over 90 percent of the vote.
In almost every left wing organising effort I've been involved in, there have been men who are really keen to spend the budget on pin badges and stickers. Your badges do happen to be nice, and tbh you've tempted me to order one to find out what the obsession is. Love your channels, please keep it up, and thanks :)
Are you sure I can't say "first"
Would be embarrassing if your 10000th was your next-door neighbour XD.
"Desenwrola Brziw" kkk
How this was so close is mind-boggling to me...but anyway, congrats Lula!
Most of the people on the crazy train, boarded at "misinformation station" ...
Isn't he and his party like super corrupt, not saying bolsanoro is better but this outcome seems not really worth celebrating.
@@theunchosenone4610 lula lifted millions out of poverty, but eventually the party he was representing started to do things wrong, he has publicly recognized their mistake, the more people are pulled outside of poverty the better in my opinion.
@@theunchosenone4610 Corruption or not, Lula's last presidency seems to have greatly benefited Brazil and the Brazilian people. Not saying it excuses anything, but compared to Bolsanoro's disastrous presidency, I don't think the choice should have been hard to make.
Interestingly enough, we've had a similar case in France. Some mayor and his family went to trial for corruption. Despite the accusations being proven true, their policies were so popular that they gained a lot of support from their community. Don't remember how the trial ended though.
@@theunchosenone4610 From what I've read, wasn't the judge who sentenced Lula to prison time, later on a part of Bolsonaro's cabinet while he was in office? I don't think there's any way to say for sure without a 3d party investigation by someone truly unaffiliated with either side.
