I'd hardly put Trump in the category of "right wing extremists" he was a life long Democrat till about 5min ago.
Why is it that the left/progressive/socialist parties are always the ones these days being called "corrupt," when it is right-wing parties who are more likely to engage in wanting to personally profit from public office. The right parties even say that they want to privatize everything so that they can make money off of it. Yet, it's only the left parties these days that get accused of "corruption." Why does no one say that it is the left/socialist parties who are less likely to be "corrupt" than the right-wing parties? And unfortunately, I think that in the public mind the word "corrupt" has come to mean nothing more than "bad," with no more specific meaning than that.
Putin is a right wing extremist? Quick question 😀 what is the difference between a right winger and a extremist right winger? Also do accurate labels even matter?😉 Lastly has this Brazilian "Hitler" written his own "Mein Kampf" also does he hang out with Adolf Rosenberg 😘?
Vijay Prashad is one of those rare Leftists who actually talks real sense.
The problem with these Fake Left parties is that NONE of them has the least intention of leading their respective working-classes to seize the means of production. They just campaign with Left posturing.
Which of course leaves them ever vulnerable to the Reichwing.
My president 😎🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Brazil is voting for Bolsonaro.
Bye bye Left wing.
Vijay has pictures of communists behind him. You are not being honest with us. The problem in Brazil is that it went socialist and now you communists are now blaming capitalist for the failures of socialist policies
Where has cracking down actually worked outside of complete dictatorship and police states?
Criminals will be criminals!………..it’s the lies of Hollywood and tell- lie – vision they try to hind the fact that the colonial criminals unleashed a racist HELL on earth in 1492! Demon-cracy, capitalism (refined feudalism), are all a Interlocking, multi- level SCAM that when fails, exposes who they really are, FASCIST parasitic MURDERERS!
ALL POWER TO ALL THE PEOPLE,……..minus the colonial RACISTS!
Bolsonaro and Brazilian against global communist culture ! War against all God enemy ! Deus Vult .
DAMN! the religious extremists have found this channel. Or are they paid trolls???
Is this guy an Indian? No wonder… They are street shitters and eat with their hands. Sorry, I don't take advice from a guy who's culture is still shitting in the streets. No one should.
This guy knows nothing.
Regarding the economy:
The problem is the few, wealthy families that are in control of everything, strangle the market to protect their monopolies. Starting a business in Brazil is incredibly difficult. So, you ask, "why don't people just boycott the products of the monopolies?". Well, unfortunately, the monopoly families sell stuff to the stupid class of people here in Brazil. This is a HUGE class of people. They are too stupid to do anything other than drink their monopoly beer, use their monopoly phone, eat their monopoly food, all while watching their monopoly TV shows. All state sanctioned products, of course.
The FAKE news yet again. Keep on spitting your fake news because you only help our cause. I recommend you make less videos like this because I’m tired of winning so much.
Bribes will always be able to surpass salaries. As for crime: the best way to reduce it would be to legalize drugs. But that might never happen because drug bosses bribe politicians to keep drugs illegal – otherwise, the bosses would be out of business.
Blair a moderate? How can he be a moderate if he is a war criminal?
"The really dangerous American fascist… is the man who wants to do in the United States in an American way what Hitler did in Germany in a Prussian way. The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information.
With a fascist the problem is never how best to present the truth to the public but how best to use the news to deceive the public into giving the fascist and his group more money or more power… They claim to be super-patriots, but they would destroy every liberty guaranteed by the Constitution.
They demand free enterprise, but are the spokesmen for monopoly and vested interest. Their final objective, toward which all their deceit is directed, is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection." – US Vice President Henry Wallace. April 9, 1944
