The Most Impressive Communist-Crusher You've Never Heard Of

I first saw Olavo de Carvalho years ago on a program called Update Brazil, which covered the global fight against communism.

The video is gone now, the whole channel purged by YouTube. The host was Allan dos Santos, an excellent anti-communist journalist who is now being persecuted and blacklisted by Brazil's far-left Supreme Court. Also on the show were the brilliant American analysts, Jeff Nyquist and Diana West.

The fourth person was the only one I didn't recognize. An old and playful Brazilian man. He seemed quirky. Maybe a blogger and friend of Allan's.

It was actually Olavo de Carvalho, who was something of a national hero and incredibly accomplished. I just couldn't tell it from his polite and humble demeanor. If I recall correctly, he went out of his way to promote the books of West and Nyquist, saying how great they are, and what a big fan of theirs he is.

Since then, I have studied Olavo's work, getting it translated into English, and learned something of his career. In my opinion, he was maybe the most brilliant and interesting thinker we had in the world.

Olavo did something incredibly difficult, even borderline impossible. He led the ideological movement to remove communists from power in Brazil. And they did succeed in winning back the presidency.

Over the last couple of decades, Brazil was under the rule of Presidents Lula and Rousseff, who, depending on your point of view, were either far-left or outright communists. Brazilian media are so far to the left that they make American media look tame by comparison.

During that time, Olavo was sounding the warning on TV and in writing. He was explaining how dangerous the leftist movement was and warning of a shadowy international communist movement.

A how to remove Communists? Interesting. They have been at the helms here since the 30s. Just follow the eugenic movement.

I’ll have to look into this guy more. It seems he might have wrote the book for Trump. Never back down and never apologize, in fact double down when confronted.
