    As I loosely understand, Lula *himself* has not been saying this, and fundamentally it’s his voice that actually matters.

    Lol, to no one’s surprise.

    The party was founded and led by literal tankies, only moderating in the late 90s to become competitive. They have *always* supported the authoritarian government in Venezuela.

  3. Brazil please, I beg of you, select someone competent to run in the next election. Specifically someone who’s not Bolsonaro.

  4. There are many voices within the party against this move by Gleisi Hoffmann. What matters is Lula’s position

    The irony that many in that party began their political careers resisting a civil-military dictatorship and now are supporting a civil-military dictatorship.

    Nothing quite like having this many players making this many moves to make me realize how completely out of my depth I am on all but the most superficial LatAm issues.

  7. No surprise there, the OG BRICS countries stick together in trying to undermine the world order. Hopefully they all get a heavy dose of karma

    Just another BRICS country who will, in the name of enormously misplaced grievances, double down on authoritarianism to spite some bad US foreign policies from 50-60 years ago.
