    They also think Bolsonaro is a great anti-imperialist and Lula da Silva is an US puppet because Lula is pro-lgbtq+ what-the-hell

      Actually these dumb idiots actually think Bolsonaro was an Communist which is not true in anyway at all Bolsonaro called Maduro a "Cancer" and wanted to bring back the Brazil Military Regime and these people still think Bolsonaro was a Communist Revolutionary https://wiki.infrawiki.us/index.php/List_of_color_revolutions#America

        They probably will say that Bolsonaro praised Chavez, Castro and other leftist military leaders. But what they don't understand is that Bolsonaro doesn't like the politics of these people, but rather respect the fact they were in the military, like him.

      Bolsonaro took Brazil out of the Chavez-founded UNASUR in order to join the US-aligned PROSUR (which excludes Venezuela and Bolivia) as soon as he went into office.

        Tbh, UNASUR was more politically diverse and had both right and left goverments inside it. I think Chavez had his own more leftist subgroup that founded the ALBA. Bolsonaro also took Brazil out of CELAC. Which Lula immediatly rejoined, day one of his goverment.

      Isn't Lula friends with Castro Hugo Chavez and many other Iberoamerican socialists? Yeah I do know Lula is moderate but I'm not surprised since Bolsonaro is a Brazilian version of Trump just wait till they see that Netanyahu was best friends with Trump and Bolsonaro and Ben Gvir supported Trump

        Yes, Lula and the Workers Party are friends with Chavez, Castro, etc... The Workers Party have recently got closer with the CPC, since back in the 1980's, they used to be Pro-Soviet instead of Pro-China. But that changed during the 2000's. Lula is moderate but his party is more left than him, but they still have rightist factions inside it together with the more radical left ones.

        I think Castro was one of the person that said to Lula to never give up on politics, to continue doing what he was doing because it was only a matter of time before he got elected. And Castro was right.
