#Introduction #irishtwitter this is my happy face the night Lula defeated Bolsonauro
@GurgelSegrillo That was a great night indeed! Is it too simple to break it down into #GoodvsEvil? It felt like the battle was won that night.
@SeaGoatGirl oh, I could write an essay about this In short, of my very large extended family (good sample poll size) the ones who were always cracking mean jokes, punching down like, gossipy, are the exact ones who became #bolsonarists (#fascists). So there was at least an inclination for #cruelty. I remember feeling uncomfortable around them as a child. Then there're the #compassionate ones e.g. not blaming poor people for their condition, happy for them when the government
@SeaGoatGirl created #BolsaFamilia, which helped 36M brazilians emerge from #ExtremePoverty. When #BolsoNazi & his gang sprayed fertiliser of cruelly, aided by some awful media channels and WhatsApp #disinformation groups, it did not take on the latter but it did great on the former. They could now justify their #selfishness and lack of #CivilResponsibility. Throw in greedy, ignorant pentecostal pastors fanning the flames and boom It's still going btw. Anti-democracy demos
