From Brazil to Peru, the far right is on the move in Latin America | The Marc Steiner Show

Read the transcript of this episode: therealnews.com/from-brazil-t...
Between former Peruvian president Pedro Castillo being removed from office and Jair Bolsonaro’s far-right supporters in Brazil storming the halls of government in a January 6-style coup attempt, the pitched battle for political power in Latin American states is intensifying more with each passing day. What is driving these insurgent rightwing movements across the continent? What international forces are connecting them, and how are they learning from and feeding each other? What must the response from the left, within and beyond government, be? This week on The Marc Steiner Show, as part of our ongoing collaboration with the North American Congress on Latin America (NACLA), we bring you a new installment of our special series on “The Rise of the Right.” With a special focus on the latest political upheaval in Brazil and Peru, Marc speaks with Latin America-based journalists Camila Escalante and Michael Fox.
Camila Escalante is the co-founder and editor of Kawsachun News. She co-hosts the English-language weekly podcast Latin America Review on Kawsachun News and is the Latin America correspondent for PressTV. Michael Fox is a freelance multimedia journalist, filmmaker, radio reporter, and former editor of NACLA. He is the host of the podcast Brazil on Fire, a joint production of NACLA and The Real News Network.

I thought this was a right leaning show but I've heard the other side and it's "the voting machines are safe". Can u say that unequivocally beyond the shadow of a doubt?

[@RaGinGnonSToP]

Nah bro. This whole channel is neo-marxists that pretend to be somewhat anti-israel. Don't fall for it.

[@vinnie_talks_sht7316]

The voting machines work perfectly as designed: They are 100% safe and reliable when your guy wins, but corrupt and hacked when the other guy wins. Job done.

Anybody to the right of Lenin/Marx/Mao

The title is a little misleading: "the far right is on the move in Latin America." Because she said the far right was on the move in response to burgeoning leftist movements. And that the leftist movements are having that much success as to scare the rightwing, is not something that should be ignored for a headline.

Mark Steiner's Show is excellent on Real Network. Thank you for these guests today to keep us in the know. Trueful, intelligent, and expert at what they do as they are challenged to seek truth in Latin America and America. Again, thank you Camilla Escalento and Micael Fox, and Mark Steiner. Very informative discussion!!!!!

Everything said in this video is lie after lie. I am peruvian and know exactly what is going on. Dina Boluarte is leftwing , no far right. I hope you merely know who is Dina Boluarte. Most of her ministers are leftwing. Pedro Castillo did a coup détat where all the country was against it. He is the most corrupted president of Peru the last 200 years. He , his wife, his nephews ( some of them search by police) , his close-friendes, etc. They all have stolen 25 mil millions of soles about 6 millions of dollars is a lot of brabery of all kinds in just 1.5 years . . . He wanted full-power to controlled everything in Peru as Chavez did in Vnzla.

Real Statist News Network. Here's some fine work by two great representatives of the Left: Wilson and FDR 1913 December 23, 1913, the Senate passed and President Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act. 1917 The Banking Relief Act amends the TWE Act in such a way to now include all citizens of the U.S. from now on, equating the people of the U.S. as an enemy, and all legal and commercial intercourse became illegal. The only way to do business in the U.S. thereafter was to obtain permission from the state through getting a license. From this the Uniform Commercial Code would spring. Furthermore, the EBR Act created the whole paradigm of licenses, drivers license, etc. The government (Washington DC) in this way protects itself from the people (enemy). 1933 FDR redefines State of Emergency to include any national crisis. 1933 FDR declares a National State of Emergency. 1933 FDR issues Executive Order 2039, March 6, 1933 and Executive Order 2040 on March 9, 1933.The now belligerent United States (federal government), acting under the TWE/EBR Acts just established, seizes title to all lawful constitutional money (Gold), and takes possession of the Gold, leaving the American people, forever enemies, without lawful means to pay debt. From now on, people are forced to mortgage property. All debt cannot be “paid,” but only “discharged.” The people become captured chattel property of the U.S. to “secure the debt.” Former states become “political subdivisions” or occupied territories of the belligerent corporate United States. Americans are ordered to turn in their gold coins, bullion, other gold resources. During this period, over $114 million in gold was taken from banks for export, and $150 million in gold was withdrawn for hiding purposes. Gold at $20.67/oz. 1933 FDR announces decision to devalue the dollar by announcing that the government would buy gold at an increased price. Currency is now in the form of Federal Reserve Bank Notes (War & Emergency Currency) and not Federal Reserve Notes (warehouse receipt for gold on deposit). 1933 Former judicial Courts of Justice take silent judicial notice of International Maritime Law In Remjurisdiction and assume the role as Executive Officers (not judicial) to enforce the Federal and State Statutes in all cases. Judges become executive political hatchet men to enforce public policy statute enacted by Congress and top enforce performance on Federal Reserve Bank Notes in order to give it the appearance of value. 1933 The citizens of the United States, now declared enemies of the United States, find themselves with unlawfully suspended rights. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights no longer apply. American people now have no unalienable rights to life, liberty, or property. 1933 Citizens of the United States come under the control of the United Socialist States of the District of Columbia (U.S.SA).

@@RaGinGnonSToP Another little factoid; Donald Trump was a life Long Democrat. His mentor was Roy Cohn a degenerate Zionist. The DNC made sure Trump was the candidate because they thought for sure he would lose. His incumbency resulted in the color revolution of 2019 funded by the DNC; the destruction of public and private property murder and assault of private citizens through domestic terror including occupation of major US cities. A REAL INSURRECTION right out of the Marxist playbook!! This was a text book Marxist revolution, it was televised as promised, and Americans luved it, why, because they are sheople, used to being fleeced and the wool pulled over their eyes, steaks on a plate by their own WILL AND CONSENT!!!!!! If the government, in this country's case the Oligarchy, controls perception through propaganda, (which became legal after the Smith Mundt Act was amended in 2012 under the NDAA), you can control 51% of the mob that's all you need for a taker over. If you listen to fools the mob rules! This news source is playing people for fools. They are polarized and they are not calling out both sides like they should if they had any truth in them. Just the "far left" trying to expose the "far right" they both end up in the center of the synthesis of the dialectic. The right is the loyal opposition of the left and vice versa. Ancient German existential secret, actually neo platonic if you really know your philosophy. The new normal these days is mass neo cortex retardation(to turn back or loosen), they're about to shove what's left of it into the meta, (basically like the old dont do drugs commercial: this is your brain, this is your brain on drugs, just substitute meta and imagine your brain frying like an egg) while your jacked up on thc, ice, meth, fentanyl, liquor and whatever else they can shove inside your dusty cranium. Oh and here's something real controversial that even a green monkey can figure out, the descending colon is for pooping not reproduction just in case you're that dumb. Thanks for Reading!

What is happening in Peru and Bolivia is completely different from what happens in Brazil or the USA. In Peru and Bolivia it's entirely a racial matter. The white/light mestizo elites have benefited hugely from contracts with transnational mining companies like American Lithium (a Canadian company, actually) that go and exploit the minerals while poisoning the land with lead, the waters with mercury, and the air with sulfur. The Native communities have been kicked out of their own lands, or are being forced to try to survive in contaminated lands that no longer produce enough food. The situation in Peru in particular is one borderline ethnic-cleansing, including campaigns during the Fujimori regime when Native women were sterilized against their will. It's no surprise that the white/light mestizos on the left don't say anything about what's going on in Peru. The people revolting are their racial enemies too.

[@davidstern638]

I just love Lulu and hate Bolsonaro, Trump and Bannon. I am married to a Peruvian who is a majority indigenous decent from the slums of Lima. I found this video looking for what is happening in Peru today. This didn't feel like current news or even well analyzed opinion for February of 2023. Brazilia was a success story compared to Washington. The fascists attacked when no one was there, unlike the US where they took over most of the Capital while the congress was in session. They made immediate arrests in Brazilia of the fascist leaders. The poor, primarily indigenous people in the slums of Lima did not vote for Castillo. Castillo got less than 19% of the total vote in the first round of the election and a tiny bit more than 50% in the run-off against the much hated Keiko (who got less than 14% in the first round). The 50% that voted for Keiko were primarily on the coasts and the 50% that voted for Castillo were primarily in the mountains. Castillo was incompetent and could not put together a cabinet with Ministers who lasted more than a few months at a time before they were fired, arrested for corruption or quit. He could not get anything past with a heavily fragmented democratically elected congress. He decided to dismiss congress and the courts and become a dictator. He did this without any planning and all his ministers quit and he was arrested. I've hated the Imperial President ever since Nixon wanted to be one. Yeah, the people in the mountains need more attention. Same here in the USA. We loved our NY Senator Bobby Kennedy going to Appalachia to talk about the poor people in the center of the country--and then he was assassinated and no one did anything and Appalachia is a crazy mess politically, culturally and economically. The poor people in the slums of Lima, like Callao and Barrios Altos, are shooting at the protestors from the mountains to get them out of their neighborhoods. I may not know that much about Latin America, but I didn't learn anything from the 1/2 hour watching "The Real News".

Where you see Bannon you see Robert Mercer's money who hides on Long Island reading Pat Buchanan books all day in his own paradise.

[@RaGinGnonSToP]

Bannon is largely funded by a dissident Chinese refugee billionaire, Guo Wengui aka Miles Guo. Who (strangely enough) praises Xi Jinping on occasion.. Bannon, as flawed as he is, still seems at least 75-80% based tho.

[@RaGinGnonSToP]

But the fact that Bannon gets the VAST majority of his funding from a dissident Chinaman MUST be acknowledged and recognized.

[@lukeduke6693]

I love Pat Buchanan and also enjoy this channel. Struggling to think of all that much the two disagree on? Pat Buchanans books turned me anti war and anti military industrial complex. I dont think many on the left have any idea where Buchanan (or bannon) stand on the issues.
