I don't think you know what the left is, it's the centrist dems who are obsessed with russia.

You mean to tell me that the millions of Brazilians that Lula elevated out of extreme poverty weren’t just captivated by Bolsarnaro’s great ideas

Dudes watch these corny YouTube shows and just start creating a false reality.

No one outside of the far right, Trump and his merry band red hats have said anything to legitimize Bolsonaro.

So people didn't support Mandela, MLK, and Gandhi when they were fairly obviously political prisoners?

This guy isn't some shoplifter

He was probably over sentenced, but he was certainly taking part in corruption.

Overzealous proecution and the politicizing of his case to help sway the election, while also corrupt, doesn't change the fact that he was corrupt himself.

Similarly, having a more palatable or shared political ideology isn't cause in my book to overlook corruption.

Taking a step back from the specifics of the case and this forthcoming series of articles, to me this is just another tragic example of a movement being too closely tied to an individual and not its own merits.


Neither Mandela, MLK, nor Ghandi were charged and convicted for being corrupt while being the president.

Imagine "Crooked" Hillary Clinton supporting Lula during her presidential run.
