Unfortunately most Brazilians are cultural marxists and have no clue as to the alternative of Bolivarian socialism. The concept of limited government is absent. That is pretty much the Latin curse - keeps most of S America in the pits.
Unfortunately, “most Brazilians are cultural Marxists”, which due to theirs being a pure democracy, ‘most’ is often 1 vote greater than 50%.
The socialists like Lula and Dilma bribe the slum peasant mass, who don’t know shite from shinola, with trinkets and a few Real to get the 50%+1.
Being down there during a national election is a sight to see.
