THE RUN-OFF IS HAPPENING! GO VOTE, Jow Forums! RESULTS TRACKER: oantagonista.com/eleicoes-2018/ Counting begins at 18 EST. Final results will likely be out by 23 EST.
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, Eurasianism 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. Under heavy fire from the media and academia, with an extremely restricted campaign budget, and having survived an assassination attempt, Bolsonaro's presidential run is nothing short of extraordinary.
JB's antagonist in the presidential race is Fernando Haddad, a sociologist, former minister of education under Lula and former mayor of São Paulo. He's running for the left-wing Labour Party (PT) under the guidance of former president Lula, who is currently in prison after being convicted for corruption and money laundering. PT had been the ruling party in Brazil for 13 years, but is facing high rejection in the polls after a police investigation uncovered the largest known corruption scheme in Brazilian history, which PT architected.
Eu estou legitimamente preocupado que o Bolsonaro vai acabar ganhando mesmo. Não queria votar no PT mas acabei sendo obrigado a isso. Resta orar por uma virada.
brazil's "people" have scummy lawbreaking malandro tendencies and so they need a strong hand to guide and correct them, dictatorship has a decent amount of positives for them
have enjoyed sharing this view with normie friends

I think the first thing Bolsonaro should do if possible is restore Brazil's flag back to this instead of that commie slogan shit.
>lawbreaking malandro tendencies if things weren't so offensively bureocratic and scummy in the first place we wouldn't need to do this shit. Take your shitty legislations and regulations and throw them in hell.

>Durante a década de Lula, o Brasil do futuro sempre adiado, registou muitas conquistas sociais, para mulheres, negros, mulatos, índios; dezenas de milhões foram libertos de extrema pobreza endêmica; o Brasil ganhou prestígio internacional.
>Lula deixou a Presidencia com popularidade em estratosfera. A Dilma Rousseff substituiu Lula no Palácio do Planalto e tomou decisões firmes na purga de membros do seu governo envolvidos em corrupção.
>Mas um dos maiores escroques do Brasil, agora em prisão, o Deputado Federal Eduardo Cunha, Presidente da Câmara de Representantes, orquestrou o impeachment da Presidente Dilma porque ela era uma ameaça para os políticos corruptos do Brasil.
>É óbvio que o processo contra Lula foi e é perseguição política, visando destronar o Partido dos Trabalhadores do poder pelo que este partido representa para os pobres e negros. Mas é verdade que o PT se corrompeu, decepcionou muitos.
>A eleição de Donald Trump nos EUA foi em parte uma reacção dos conservadores a eleição de um negro, Barack Obama. O fenómeno Bolsonaro é reação de uma elite Brasileira conservadora, racista.
>Espero que o eleitorado Brasileiro vote no candidato Fernando Haddad, o melhor para o Brasil, para a América latina e para a Comunidade dos Países de Língua Portuguesa – a CPLP.

A Folha de S. Paulo, em editorial, diz que “não está em guerra com Bolsonaro, ou qualquer candidato; bate-se, sim, pela democracia. Não depende de verbas do governo para sobreviver, mas de seus leitores —seu site recebeu mais de 50 milhões de visitantes apenas em outubro — e de seus anunciantes.
Seguirá na planície do apartidarismo, do jornalismo crítico, dando abrigo a opiniões plurais. Intransigente na defesa de direitos humanos, do combate à desigualdade e da solução pacífica de conflitos”.
Ao contrário do que tentou demonstrar a Folha de S. Paulo, esta foi a disputa presidencial da imprensa, e não das fake news no WhatsApp.
Os números da própria Folha de S. Paulo – e de O Antagonista – provam isso.
I think there is a chance of that. Many tucanos are center-left (by tucanos I don't mean people who used to vote for them, but the politicians) and Doria is a center-right guy.

It's all digital so you only need to rig the machines without anyone knowing.
Jair Bolsonaro seems pretty good based on what I've heard of him, but somebody told me that he plans to cut down the Amazon rainforest to make way for farmland. Is this bullshit or is there a grain of truth to it?
