lmao like I always say, we're the poor man's US... this is our Jan 6 right there! Let's goooo
My predictions: nothing will come out of this. Some of the hogs and the middle managers, so to speak, will be prosecuted over the next year, Bolsonaro will probably be sued or something like that, and whoever paid for the tens of buses that were hired to take these morons there will get away with it, scot-free. In other words, just like what happened in the US.
We are a shitty carbon copy of the US, and have been ever since the military dictatorship which was aligned with American interests. After the military stepped down, the worst offenders were amnestied, which was the big mistake.
The collusion of security apparatus in this case is concerning though. Like only send on police officer on horse to stop the protesters. That’s not incompetent, that’s on purpose and seem like this was engineer from Florida to remind Lula who’s in charge
so, in brazil the military police of each state is sort of the personal army of the governors. and the governor of the federal district (it's like DC except it has a senator) is a bolsonarista. he's, like, the last guy to get the memo to stop being a dumbass and jump ship for four years. so he's the one responsible for this clusterfuck. with federal intervention declared the governor's powers in respects to state security were circumvented. everything was dispersed pretty quickly after that.
So he’s moving to Florida as well.
like running to florida is really bad long term because the us will give you over like no doubt about it if it ever gets to an actual court like bolsonaro is not in a good spot because as soon as the criminal indictments start rolling the us will follow their extradiction treaty with brazil
Waiting for Ron Desantis to start an international conflict because he won't give up Bolso
Florida is home to a lot of evil fuckers in a way that only Washington DC Area approaches, and those guys are there because the power is there. Florida is where they choose to be.
like a fun fact about the brazilian capital is that it was built in the 50s and founded in 1960, so this is actually a really easy place to defend, like it was planned around this, there is a negative chance this wasn't on purpose someone high up is gonna get fucked by this they literally couldn't get in if the police was doing their job
