IF YOU HAVEN'T VOTED YET, GET OUT THERE AND VOTE FOR BOLSONARO RIGHT NOW!
-- BACKGROUND Jair Bolsonaro is the front-runner in Brazil's presidential election. He is a conservative Christian, pro-gun, a former army captain, and the only candidate with no corruption charges against him. He's looking to modernise the lethargic Brazilian economy with the aid of UChicago economist Paulo Guedes. He wants to align Brazil's foreign policy with Western nationalist governments against the influence of China, Iran, Syria, Palestine, Russia, North Korea and regional socialism (Venezuela and Cuba). He has a hard stance on crime and supports increasing the power of police forces and the army to tackle Brazil's drug and violence problems.
Memes by Bolsonaro: >Pinochet should have killed more people >Historical debt towards slavery? I didn't enslave anyone. >The Portuguese didn't enslave blacks, but blacks enslaved themselves. >I wouldn't rape you because you are ugly and you don't deserve it. >Do you burn the donut? I don't care! Be happy! Hugs for you!
The US uses a series of proxies to influence foreign elections. The main proxy is the National Endowment for Democracy, NED, which receives $100 million in taxpayer dollars. The NED et al coordinates all of it’s activities with the State Department. The NED has a series of shell organizations to target specific ideological groups, social classes, and countries. The shell organization used to support center-left parties is the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs, the NDI.
The US is using these to influence the Brazilian election. The NED has published pieces on its website which call Bolsonaro a threat to democracy and the rule of law. Foreign Policy Magazine, the mouthpiece of the State Department, has also published similar attacks on Bolsonaro. The NDI published a piece on its website declaring that Haddad was a champion of anti-corruption and “social justice” while condemning Bolsonaro.
Clearly the US prefers Haddad to Bolsonaro. How deep does this clandestine support go?
How hard would it be for Bolsonaro to get the ~2% or so needed to get over 50% in the runoff election? I know nothing of Brazilian politics but shouldn't it be relatively easy.
APENAS RETARDOS RURAIS E SUBORRÂNEOS VOTADOS PARA BOLSONARO. TODAS AS PESSOAS DA CIDADE VOTAM POR HILLARY
Gavin Barnes
Why the fuck my fellow monkeys are so retarded? Why they can't elect a centrist president? Bolsonaro is just a shit right-wing version of Lula.
What's more hilarious is people trying to compare him (a career politician) to Trump (businessman).
Never learn hues, never learn.
Jaxon Diaz
My double digit right here will guarantee that he will win.
There's no way Bolsonaro will lose
Carson Lee
So who won?
Chase Robinson
Can the results in NE be trusted? The governor of Bahia has 75% votes against 24% of the 2nd and 0.4%~ for the 3rd, 4th. Is Rui Costa (PT) that absolutely beloved? Because those results sounds fishy.
Also some dude said all the machines in his place had Bolsonaro winning, it was in Pernambuco.
its like american elections whats left is california basically. he wins second round
Andrew Gonzalez
He should be far ahead of that, but I honestly don't trust these voting machines
Wyatt Gray
Cause all your mestizos basically see themselves as white? Do blacks not tend to support PT? As an American that's hard to even imagine having black people who dont vote Left
I know plenty of people who will cast a null vote if it comes down to Bolsonaro x Haddad so it might actually happen. Some people might just vote against PT too.
Benjamin Bell
Israel support is basically his way of signalling "fuck Muslims", who cares. Not everything revolves around JOOS, especially not in brazil
Carson Walker
Fuck
Oliver Miller
everything is doomed
Ethan Wilson
people dont support parties based on their race, its mostly based on region. because most people are mixed its harder to do racially based politics here
THIS >THIS THIS >THIS THIS >THIS THIS >THIS THIS >THIS
Cameron Davis
My understanding was that all the blacks are concentrated in the poor areas/favelas, so I figured there was still a political skew, but maybe not. Interesting
Benjamin Fisher
Why would a Brazilian care about islam/muslims?
Asher Morris
A BIXA DO JEAN WYLLYS TEM 10K DE VOTOS E ESTA EM 77 NAO VAI SER ELEITO
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
S S S S S
Jacob Wright
ele tem que ir se fuder mesmo.
Leo Smith
what's it like now? >please spoon feed me
Joseph Harris
Honestly I think he just seems palestine as a lefty pet issue so opposes it to own the libs, basically. Lots of right wingers just generally empathsize with Israel in that they see a colonizer vs. brown people dynamic to it. Neither jews nor muslims matter that much to brazil
Jaxson Baker
espero pronto amigo. felicitaciones brasilbro
ha sido una semana gigante de noticias
Ayden Gutierrez
BOA, ESSE BOSTA NUNCA FEZ NADA QUE PRESTA PARA O BRASIL
Gabriel Flores
to the fluminense faggots saying rj is more based than sp: the number of paulista voters is almost 3x bigger... we are contributing much more to bolsonaro's victory
Oliver Barnes
g1.globo.com/ upper part has the %, don't forget to use ad block
Carter Phillips
right there with ya patriot. it sounds fuckin strange as fuck to me to imagine blacks that aren't all bix nood chicago hood RIGHTZ and sheeit
To be fair, my understanding is that they still have disproportionately high crime rates, concentrate in ghettos, etc. I guess they just don't vote as a block, too.
So, are all other candidates leftist or will he win a Second round? Because he seems to need just half of any other candidates votes to win it.
Luke Sullivan
aw man my hype is dwindling
Jose Morgan
>Bolsonaro sees no legitimacy in the opposition, which for him represents tyrannical powers. He said last month that his political opponents, members of the Workers’ Party, should be executed.
AHAHAHHAHAHAHA
How does this guy get away with this
Zachary Hall
its over bros.
James Hernandez
nah, check these
Grayson Richardson
He either gets in today or on the 28th. I dont see Haddad beating him either way.
