  1. It's strange how almost every part of the word had an major, Overton-Window shift to the far right in the 2010s -- a trend that has managed to persist into the 2020s

  2. Perhaps it was too divisive. But Sergio Moro and his relationship with Bolsonaro should not be ignored.

  3. A strong start to an uphill battle that is worth the struggle! Good luck to you and Brazil.

  4. I forget that Brazil was colonized by Portugal, not Spain.

  5.  @rhylllo9652  True. I'm glad Lula was exonerated but much of the damage was still done. Although, it does showcase Bolsonaro's underhanded tactics to gain and remain in power. Hopefully, Brazillian voters make the right call.

  6.  @Tapouturbtxh  No, he wasn't. He was friends with Bolsonaro and was even appointed to his position by Bolsonaro. I'm glad Lula won the presidency.

  7.  @giannixx  True. I'll still try to do better.

  8. I agree. Learning about Lula's conviction, this was always in the back of my mind. And it might also be one of the things that are holding Lula back from a comfortable victory (especially in the Brazillian Congress).

  9.  @Zampierre  1. Cap. 2. Did you forget who appointed him and directed his judicial powers against Lula? It was Bolsonaro.

  10.  @sujac664  Also, Lula just won the election!!! Albeit, only by ~2 million votes or ~2% of the votes. There was a ~80% voter turnout. And with the added caveat that, while the Presidency might be with Lula & his party, Bolsonaro still has influence in the Brazillian Congress because his party won the majority, early this month, in the first round.
