No, it was in fact because Lula and PT are doing the same economic plan of bolsonaro in slow motion and with negligible tax rate increase to the bourgeoisie, so they allowed him to take power with US help as they are allied to the US. The bourgeoisie factions who helped the coup stayed without major support and it failed. They are the "lite" right-wing preventing the left from doing anything.
Inflation in Russia is only high if considering what neoclassicals/monetarists/neoliberals think about inflation. But this school of economics is not always dominant outside the western world and was imposed as part of its washington consensus economics, the cold war dictatorships such as Chile and Brazil, by the IMF, and by intellectual/theoretical colonialism and right-wing/libertarian NGOs. As an example, marxist economists (in terms of what is traditionally seen as macroeconomics, planned economy) and especially developmentalist economists are dominant in Brazil in universities (although the landowner/financial oligarchy and the army restricts them from getting in power as Brazil is a US colony in disguise), and in fact developmentalism is common in latin america. MMT has seen a growth in other countries.
Because they don't want to mobilize as Russia is neoliberal. Russia has an independent central bank. If putin was so dictator and powerful like the West says, be would have already done that. The only people benefiting from this war are private Russian military companies. Russia should mobilize and wipe out the Ukrainian army, close the borders with the US and Japan with amassed troops, and prepare for a world war.
1- Clearly a right-wing liberal sociologist, common in anglophone countries but treated with scorn in sociological talent pools; Latin-America and western europe
2- Now the idea is that there will be no economic crash but "overheating"? According to who? Monetary neoliberal economic "orthodox mainstream" anglophone universities?
3- Who the fuck analyzed the military stock numbers? American military generals?
4- Why the hell is he shifting the peace rhetoric to gain time to Russia? Intellectual dishonesty at its best
Brazil industry was destroyed in the 90s by Fernando Henrique Cardoso and his wholesale destruction of our antitrust, patent and industrial laws and companies, on orders of Clinton.
Bolsonaro destroyed the rest. I'm so happy that Venezuela stopped their own Bolsonaro (Maria) and their own FHC (the second place candidate). It's clear the US had the same plans.
They want NATO to join the war. They only don't understand NATO helping Israel on fighting hezbollah would severely damage American image around the world, far more than Iraq. Only showing force can't help the US with Russia in full military rise and a China who is expanding its trustworthiness around the world as never before.
Fuck. As a brazilian this hurts my eyes. Why are all weak "marxists" in the west so weak? Trots here are far more capable than this stupid guy. Even by the logic of those who consider Russia imperialist instead of expansionist (a view i do not personally adhere to) and to all of the anti-russian fearmongering racist discourse, lenin never said imperialists can do anti-imperialist actions against imperialists. That would be self-contradictory. Only anti-imperialists are anti-imperialist.
lol vargas was not a dictator. he was an hardline guy who had his own conflicting attitudes and views about anything. he was more like a reformist right-winger. He repressed liberals and communists. He definitely engaged in racist campaigns against japanese people but in a world war II context. Vargas is a figure that is impossible for most western people to understand, because he represents a right that does not exist in america or europe. An illiberal right, that is still existing today in Brazil. Capitalist but not liberal. Some of it that isn`t even capitalist but in favour of industrialist right or even far right illiberal republics. While i do think its currently full of reactionary anti-minority assholes, its not liberal in any sense and its very different from the nazbols. And it has very small numbers compared to the nazbols.
China can definitely beat the US too. I just don`t think the "nuclear weapons would not be used" people are right. That would likely lead to our extinction.
The brazilian neoliberals couped dilma due to her pushing a developmentalist agenda with a developmentalist economist in office. she is also a developmentalist economist herself.
su-57 is the winner!
