as people go to voting stations, the federal police is locking up roads and bridges and not letting buses in - we all know who actually takes buses, workers, who vote for lula
in some places even the army is helping, which is, to say the least, highly irregular, if not outright illegal
they're saying they're investigating attempts of vote buying, which is obviously a ridiculous excuse to disrupt the process
guess we're heading into the cool zone over here
If this is a coup I hope it will end up in a :bolso-pain: to :hide-and-seek: pipeline.
first there was :saddam-hussein:
then there was :hide-and-seek:
now get ready for :box-of-poop:
I'm afraid if/when there's a coup in Brazil it will end up with Bolsonaro in power.
You're probably right, i've just read it seems he's got the army behind him, that's always a bad sign when there's a coup. I hope for all of our comrades in Brazil this plan fails, maybe i shouldn't shitpost about this rn when things are so tense. I can take the post down if anybody wants to.
Eh, speaking for myself there's nothing wrong with the post. We have a saying down here. 'You gotta laugh so you don't cry'. Unfortunately we can't all be as based as the bolivians. The only reason to be hopeful is that the right wing eminently doesn't need to coup anyone. Lula is a social democrat. His alliances are with many of the same groups as the right wing, from churches to banksters. Sure, being a social democrat in latin america is almost revolutionary but the right wing is in power anyways, as always. On the flipside there's no stabilizing force either. The right wing is a bunch of hysterical boomers who live in an alternate reality and unlike in the US there's no strong bourgeois component willing to say 'cut it out and stop crashing the economy in a way that doesn't benefit us'. So, push comes to shove there'll be a coup in Brazil by sheer petite bourgeois neurosis.
I want to see him lying down on an incline cuffed, his piss rolling downhill onto his face like that gusano merc in Venezuela when he was arrested by socialist fishermen
