    Are you talking about Bolsonaro? He lost his re election and ran from the country after he tried his own trump style insurrection and is now hiding in florida

    They now have a leftist government who actually cares about the planet and people

      hahahahahahah no. they are enacting the same right-wing policies except milder and less absurd now.

      much better but a far cry from “caring about the planet and people”. hes probably more similar to biden than any leftist.

          He is enacting economic austerity measures that will eventually destroy our public services and ultimately increase inequality. Increasing taxes on consumption because of it too.

          Many public workers are already getting paid the minimum allowed by law and there are already strikes brewing to fight it.

          He also appointed very conservative people to the supreme court, voting against abortion, decriminalization of weed (we destroy lives because of this fucking plant) and all sorts of other vile shit.

          Also defunding ministries with progressive goals, and playing ball with our corrupt congress’ propositions for support.

          His discourse is very leftist, and very well tought out, but it pretty much ends there. He will end up hurting us in the long run.
