Bolsonaro: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

I'm very impressed by John's Portuguese here! It's so common for people in movies and shows to claim that they speak a foreign language only for them to go and say something completely unintelligible without the subtitles! John's Portuguese is not perfect, of course, but it's perfectly comprehensible, even without the subtitles. It gets even more impressive considering he's using nunchucks at the same time!

From Brazil here and I have a story that might make you smile. So it’s been a month, he’s lost and so far things haven’t been as bad as we expected, there have been attempts to block roads and highways but they’re not lasting. But one thing that happened with those blocks makes me think my country might be alright after all: a bus full of fans of Clube Atlético Mineiro, a football team also known as Galo, were on their way to another city to watch their beloved teams game when they came across one of these blocks between them and sweet sweet football. The fans got out of the bus and rushed the block beating up the people doing it and physically forcing the road open clearing the way for them to cheer on those that really hold Brazilian allegiance. Some highlights include selfies among the mess and someone over weight uncle (bless that man he is a saint) filming himself in the aftermath screaming (roughly translated): “We are not Bolsonaro, we are not Lula, we are F*cking Galo!!!”

[@CrabTastingMan]

Terribly insensitive, Samurai taxi driver and Oliver. The notion nunchaku = samurai is like having someone make a pastiche about celebrating Hanukkah and calling himself a "proud commie-fighting *Nazi Waffen SS warrior."* Nunchaku, part of Karate developed in Okinawa, was specifically developed to DESTROY samurai oppressors who imposed 90% tax rates and exploited them for 4 centuries like the English did the Irish. When the samurai ran out of native Japanese tribes to slaughter and resettle (Ezo, Kumaso, Hayato, Tsuchigumo, etc. eradiated completely. Nivkh, Ainu, Oroks fled out of Japan), they sailed South to Okinawa and butchered the people there but found it too far to resettle, so they confiscated all the weapons and killed anyone trying to fight back against samurai military dictatorship and oppression. Just look at all the weapons they use. Grindstone handles become the Tonfa, Threshing flails become Nunchaku, Sickles get a chain added and become Kusarigama. Lot of basic Karate moves make no sense until you realize they are exercises for using Tonfas or the like. These are all roundabout ways for the Okinawans to fight back against the Samurai rapists and save their families with the remaining farming tools available after the samurai confiscated all weapons. A lot of these weapons/techniques were specifically made to disable the samurai oppressors' katana. I guess if in Medieval Europe people were also imposed not the historical 25% but 90% taxes and all their weapons were confiscated like the Okinawans suffered, they too would develop martial arts with wheat-threshing flails. Japan has taken Okinawan heritage, like with many other Asian heritage, and stolen it, and use it to make money overseas. Especially egregious is this where taking martial arts SPECIFICALLY MADE TO DEFEND AGAINST THEIR TYRANNY and making a mockery of it for the oppressors' profit? *Pure evil.* The Okinawan suffering continued into the 20th century spent as WW2 cannon fodder for Japan where Japan hides the fact that these people are NOT Japanese but loves to use them to bloat numbers to play victim to Americans like the Himeyuri Schoolgirls of Okinawa they raped and conscripted to die as cannon fodder. _Did you know 1/3 of nuclear victims of Hiroshima (WMD poison gas production hub, used to make bombs to gas Asian cities for 30 years and heavily contributed to the 30 million death toll incurred by Japan) and Nagasaki (Mitsubishi slave factory center) were foreign Asian slaves Japan desperately tries to hide but uses their number to bloat their numbers to drive a narrative? Along with how they were making 2 Japanese nukes but needed to buy time so they scheduled to expand germ-bombing missions to America in the September of 1945? (Not even Nazis used WMDs in war)_ On top of that, after using the Okinawan deaths to give US forces the false notion that people on this small "Japanese" island are determined to fight to the death to hopefully disencouraged US forces to land on mainland Japan, Japanese oppressors expounded the propaganda they've been fed about "demonic" westerners are going to come and rape all their kids and eat them alive (thus why they must blow themselves up in kamikazes for Japan), they must kill their own children to spare them such a fate, and follow in suit with seppuku (because dead men tell no tales about Japanese war crimes). The remaining Okinawans once the Japanese fled and left them to their fates, were surprised that landing US forces gave them food and medicine, and discovereed it were the Japanese who were raping Okinawan children. Many took the food they were given as offerings to the children they killed, and on their graves they wept tears of blood and cursed Japan. When in the 20th century Okinawans started to spread their Karate culture in Japan and overseas do you know what the Japanese did? They forcibly renamed it from 唐手 to 空手 (both read as Kara-te), changing the meaning "China-hand" which pays respects to the original Chinese man who taught Okinawans his style of martial arts, to "Empty-hand" because Japan can't steal it if it has "China" right in the name. Not to mention the big reason Karate became more popular outside of Japan was because the Japanese Judo masters suppressed it, and for quite some time this even was portrayed in media where it was common to depict "noble Judo master defeating thuggish Karate criminals." Then after WW2, Okinawans were still treated like Burakumin (the Untouchable Pariahs of Japan) and were mistreated as a whole in society and were ridiculed for unscrupulous thugs who complain about Japan yet still sought work in Japan (that's only because Japan destroyed everything on Okinawa). And dumped 70% of military bases in the tiny islands of Okinawa where it takes up 20% of the land and forbids constructing high rise buildings for security reasons. It's no wonder Okinawans want independence like the Irish achieved, and when announcing they want to be like the 2nd Singapore of Asia, Japan scoffs at them today and says they are too poor to be independent, forgetting that's only because they have been enslaving them for 4 centuries. There is a good reason why 1 billion Asians cheered for American nukes emancipating them from human experimentation/vivisection on forcibly impregnated girls and their unwanted fetuses, cannibalism, civilian lynch mobs, violent Japanese civilian resettlers, sex slavery of 80-man daily rape quotas per underage girl and subsequent execution if pregnant or at the end of the war because dead girls tell no tales (see Vivian Bullwinkel), mass forced labor, ppl used as cannon fodder for the one true god that is Emperor Hirohito under threat of lynching their families if they refused, forcing colonials to commit seppuku suicide like samurai to fool Americans how "determined" the colonies are to defending Japan, firebombing cities, gassing cities, bombing with germ bombs, erasing culture, arresting/executing any teachers in the colonies that dared teach their native language or tried to build private schools or even make a dictionary of their native language, and forbidding any language but Japanese. Samurai of Feudal Japan were also brutal pimps that sold their girls out for Portuguese muskets. The most powerful warlord of 1500s, Oda Nobunaga and his rivals were busy setting up brothels in Philippines to put his slave girls to earn money for his wars (this is on top of an average of 75% tax rates for Japanese peasants, enough that even in the peacetimes of the 19th century, analyst Nobuhiro Satou said annually, 1/3 households in Japan killed a baby.) In the 19th century these became derogatorily nicknamed "Karayuki-san" (Miss Gone-to-China), and later more formally recognized and praised as "Joshigun" (Army of Girls). Famous leading thinkers like Yukichi Fukuzawa praised them like prized moneymaking livestock to earn dollars and pounds for Japan's colonial expansion and "reforms." In around Meiji Restoration period alone, 300,000 Japanese girls were pimped abroad and their brothels even reached India and Australia. Even these Japanese girls noted that native tribesmen were the best partners and the absolute violent and worst were the Japanese men, but wanted white men to rescue them from Japan's brutal sex slave industry. (Think of the background the Italian Opera Madame Butterfly was written in). When this wasn't enough to cover the costs of Japan's ever growing undeclared invasions and more wars, they started kidnapping 100s of 1000s of colonial girls to meet demand. And ofc all throughout, they justified everything as the right of Samurai Spirit and Right of Conquerors. The mythical Samurai fervor was used to justify kamikazes, samurai spirit was used to justify having no respect for POWs and were used up in decapitating contests for sport or eaten as sushi. (2 million out of 3 million soldiers had cannibalized a slave/native) (This is why veteran and President George HW Bush threw up the sushi the Japanese PM served in a banquet in 1992, his wingmen were captured and eaten in Chichijima to dehumanize Americans as subhuman livestock and allay the fears of the Japanese troops) Samurai bushido spirit was why the soldiers were given swords in WW2 because holy samurai yamato spirit trumped practicality.

Our president Jair Bolsonaro has 70% of support, he is a winner, but the judiciary "TSE" Tribunal Superior Eleitoral will count the votes on a digital machine.

We don't have either. I just know that bolsonarism is based on 3 things: neoliberalism, olavism (for those who don't know Olavo de Carvalho, he was a "philosopher" which had no graduation and taught about himself as better then every one who studied properly, but he knew how to create conservative conspiracy teories about comunism, vaccine, science and Paulo Freire, wich is a important author to education in the world). It helps people to believe everything they say about everything. The American imperialism is also a huge topic wich made bolsonarism be what it is. The antipetism (hate against PT) feed this nonsense caos. But I can't really understand how people got so blind.

If anyone's wondering why D. Pedro's heart was in Europe - he died in Portugal, and chose to leave his heart here. He came over from Brazil to fight his brother, who had seized the throne from his daughter and ruled as an absolute monarch. He fought for both countries, and both countries honor him to this day. E boa sorte, amigos.

[@danilooliveira6580]

there is a lot of love and hate towards D. Pedro, he is loved and there is a lot of beautifully written propaganda to his favor, but he was also BRUTAL against separatist and republican movements, and most of the reason he left is related to how detached he was to Brazilian politics and how strong the opposition had become. Brazilians were not happy with being ruled by a Portuguese monarch anymore, so going back to Portugal and leaving his Brazilian born son to take the throne was before anything else a political move.

One interesting thing about the Brazilian election that made me very surprised is that it's apparently illegal to not vote. My colleague (who is Brazilian) told us that if you don't vote, you get a fine. If you don't pay that fine, you loose quite a lot of rights (like working for the government or getting a passports).

[@brant-bi8563]

Your bank account also gets blocked. Voting here is optional when you are 16 and mandatory after 18+. If for any reason you cannot vote, you have to send a justifying letter to the government. It's not hard to do neither they are very strict about it, but if you miss the date for justification, all your stuff gets blocked until you pay the fine.

[@anacaroleted]

Yes, but you can also trash your vote and vote for no one. Basically you are obligated to appear on your election voting place and make a decision if you vote in a candidate or you don't want your vote to be considered in this elections.

[@tomazcunha7767]

Consequences for those who do not vote, justify or pay the fines As long as the situation is not regularized with the Electoral Justice, the voter or voter will not be able, according to § 1 of art. 7 of the Electoral Code - Law No. 4,737, of 1965: Obtain a passport(1) or identity card; (1) The restriction provided for in § 1 is not applicable to Brazilian women or Brazilians residing abroad who require a new passport for identification and return to Brazil, as regulated by § 4 of art. 7 of the Electoral Code.

Everything you heard from the press are lies, including this HBO show. I will try to explain to you in few words what is happening in Brazil. Our universities, journals, syndicates and judiciary system are taken by leftists. Read Antonio Gramscy. Our president Jair Bolsonaro has 70% of support, he is a winner, but the judiciary "TSE" Tribunal Superior Eleitoral will count the votes on a digital machine. The majority of Brazilian people will invade our supreme court if the TSE gives the victory for the convicted criminal Lula.
