With the near first-round election of Jair Bolsonaro as president of Brazil last Sunday, the country is on the precipice of a neoliberal neofascism, which fits into a very dangerous larger global cycle towards the right, says Prof. Boaventura de Sousa Santos

  1. Why is this shit, trying tô make lula Seems like an Inocent? He is the most corrupt, and this "professor" dont represents a fraction of our people, probably paid!
    If you wanna know the truth, turn off your tv, and come tô Brasil to interview real people.

  2. People in Brazil are leaderless, scared, highly misinformed and being manipulated by our economical elites. The situation is becoming very violent and chaotic. If Bolsonaro is elected, our country will certainly become a totalitarian dictatorship like Turkey or Egypt.

  3. And this portuga guy is telling some lies like saying bolsonaro didn't take parts on the debates, he did, but he got stabed on campain and almost die.

  4. Lol Haddad literaly wrote a book called ''In defense of Socialism'' and his VP is from the Comunism Party Of Brazil.

    ''Guys believe me, communism is a thing from the past, this people think they are in the cold war, hahahah, such fascists!!!!''

  5. The international press only shows the bad side of bolssonaro and not show how the Lula and his mafia is putting the Brazilians in a situation that prefer bolssonaro (of course that is not the better option but is a "less evil" than Lula)

  6. Bolsonaro is the Brazilian's only hope. In Brazil there are no political prisoners, in Brazil there is no law, if Lula is arrested and because he was wrong, the Brazilian court described Lula's party as a criminal organization. A scandal, this Coibra teacher is a sick, the Brazilian people know the truth.

  7. This professor is talking absolute nonsense! The right is wining because people are sick and tired of the "fascist" left economic and social policies!!!!! This professor is as bad as MSM, pushing leftist propaganda and New World Order…..it's people like this that have completely brainwashing students and future generation! Promote Antifa…..Leftist "Brown shirts" closer to fascism than the right! Hope the politician who has the best for Brazil and it's people win!

  8. Bolsonaro is parte Of a revolution…Maybe:

  9. lol… PT is not center-left. PSDB is center left.

    PT is full left, closer to extreme left and supported and in league with the extreme left Communist Parties.

  10. The big American banks(with the help of CIA) are taking over country after country in an effort to kill democrazy. Soon the same thing will happen in Venezuela .

  11. One of the biggest problems of is electorate is ignorance. Plain not having enough knowledge of what they are talking about. Read some of the comments left here and you realize that his electorate is just plain ignorant, as in ignoring what specialists have to say in favor of talking points of no value except inflicting rage on his voter base.

  12. >flood Europe and other white areas of the world with millions of hostile, low-IQ non-white migrants
    >wonder why people suddenly become more 'reactionary'
    Really makes you think

  13. "The center left workers party"
    I was going to ignore you calling Bolsonaro a facist since no one in current media seems to know what that word means, but calling Haddad's party (PT) "center left", when they actively support socialist dictators around the world and were even "investing" money on them, and were following their steps for the last 10 years, shows that you guys have absolutely no idea of what you are talking about

  14. The colour that they use (PT) is red, to remember all the blood spilled of all latim america, founding all dictatorships and drug dealers cartels of the South America and even pretending to be a social democrat (only now). don't believe the mainstrean media they are tricking you. LULA put's maduro in the power with his influence and bankrupt the Brazil.

  15. Our flag will never be red !!! PT / HADDAD / LULA, supported dictatorships with money stolen from the people all over the planet. Its leader, Lula, has already declared great admiration for Adolf Hitler …. but that nobody from the media comments!

  16. Classic anti democratic move the neoliberal and neoconservative warmongers and oligarchy advocates do, dodge debates because they look bad trying to defend their lousy ideas.

  17. Why isn't anyone mentioning the Nazis that escaped to Brazil?! Where are they currently? Most likely politically involved & supported by the devil!

  18. In 2017, Brazil had a murder rate of 29.2 per 100,000 population. There were a total of 56,101 murders in Brazil in 2017. Another study has the 2017 murder rate at 32.4 per 100,000, with 64,357 homicides. In 2016, Brazil had a record 61,819 murders or on average 198 murders per day, giving a homicide rate of 29.9 per 100,000 population. (wikipedia) When the state fails to protect people, they turn to extreme solutions.

  19. I don't think this is usa versus anyone else its more like the ruling elite versus the working class people they have so much But Not total control over humanity, n that is their goal, in their pursuing of this millions are dying n suffering, America gets the criticism because they are now the dominant power some countries with America's power would a been worse for sure but other would a been better too

  20. 62 thousand homicides last year and over 13 million unemployed people! The people of Brazil had enough, I have been here in Brazil for 5 years and very nearly everyone I talk to on a daily basis voted for Bolsonaro as they see him as the only option and the only candidate "ficha limpa" as they say it, meaning not involved in any sort of corruption investigation. The PT workers party is desperate and the vast majority of Brazilians are saying #ptnuncamais.

  21. Stop blaming USA. Stop with conspiracies. If there are more poor than rich in a voting democracy then the problem is not Steve Bannon nor the judiciary.

  22. People forgot how horrible fascism was in the 1940s, most of those people are dead now. We will only learn the lessons again after the next Holocaust.
