While it was no surprise that right-wing extremist Jair Bolsonaro won Brazil’s presidential election with 55% of the vote, it was with a smaller margin than originally projected. Now comes the great danger for the country’s minorities and opposition forces, says Alex Hochuli

  1. I always laugh when leftists downplay their associations with communists/socialists.

    Lula and Roussef are both “former” radicals. Much like former Nazi’s and KKK members, once you have this association with communists/socialists it never leaves you, despite your public pronouncements to the contrary. It guides your thinking and is your instinct.

    Pres Obama’s greatest success was downplaying his associations with many (current) radicals, like Bill Ayers and Frank Marshall Davis. There is a reason these were the people he associated with, just as there are reasons Lula and Roussef did the same.

    It’s who they are…

  2. Capitalism has no future — and neither does its running dog, Fascism. Expect deathsquads and bloodshed — but expect socialist revolution, as well.

  3. I find it highly significant that only 39% voted for Bolsonaro; 100 * 58 / (58 + 90).

    As Hochuli said, "And it’s also the fact that there were a huge number of abstentions and blank null ballots. So something like 58 million people voted for Jair Bolsonaro, but 90 million did not, split between 40-odd million voted for Haddad, and the rest being, as I said, abstentions, blank and null votes."

    By ignoring those who refuse to vote for the lesser evil, the media hides just how unpopular the winners of most elections are. If we factor in the roughly 40% of voters who did not vote in 2016 – ignoring those who don't even bother to register – we see that only 25% voted for Trump. Is that really democracy?

  4. "Excluding blank and invalid votes"……LMFAO. That's called voter purging. Wake up, people, he was not elected, he was selected.
