Brazil is charging Bolsonaro for trying to destroy democracy. In the USA, Trump led a coup attempt — and he’s currently residing in the White House. One country is confronting fascism. The other is sleepwalking into it.

Great, Brazil has more smart ppl than us. Well, America is full of entitled @$$hats who will whine at the slightest inconvenience so that f**king tracks. Honestly, this country is a disgrace. It's why I've come to hate it.

Bigots can rot in Hell.

I think we fool ourselves when we say we slept walk into this. This was quite deliberate and it’s been in motion for decades. And the Supreme Court has led the way.

Sleepwalking would assume a lack of affirmative choice. We aren’t sleepwalking our way to fascism, we’re embracing it wholeheartedly.

Thanks to Merrick Garland, who should NEVER have been the AG, and the DNC.

Sabe o que falta nos Estados Unidos? Uma justiça especializada em direito eleitoral com atuação a nível federal - e algumas coisas como a lei a ficha limpa.

Isso só para começo de conversa...
