What a bunch of bullshit. I was there when they called Dilma's impeachment a coup, they protested it just as vigorously. Hell they still call it a coup and they seem to be rather keen on memory holing any fact to the contrary now that they're back in power. You don't see me calling them terrorists. Even the most communist parties in Brazil denounced that narrative for obvious reasons. Things are not going to end well for them if protesting gets you labelled a terrorist.
Violence? Nobody was even hurt. Well not at the protest anyway. Some people have already died in the quasi-concentration camp they set up in Brasília for the political prisoners. The judge-kings haven't even finished dispensing their "justice" yet.
Coup attempt? If only. Maybe then they would have actually deserved those 20 year sentences. Maybe they should have actually tried to seize power. It's all the same to the judges anyway, why not go all the way? Who knows? Maybe they would have succeeded. I for one sure would enjoy not having to live under the rule of literal communists.

LOL what does it matter what brazilian law says? It's not even a civilized, democratic country anyway. Just anger a judge with your opinions and you'll see how far they'll stretch those "brazilian laws" to hang you. We have journalists, YouTubers fleeing to the USA to escape persecution. They banned Bolsonaro from office over wrongthink. Not even the incredibly dumb shit he said during the pandemic, over his perfectly reasonable criticism of the voting machines. He questioned the unquestionable.
Brazilian law? What a total joke. It's like saying "but North Korea's laws allow its dictator to..." as an argument. I'm not even convinced this land has any laws to begin with. Says on the little paper they call a constitution that censorship is illegal. The judges ordered censorship anyway, political censorship at that. The censorship actually happens, despite supposedly being unconstitutional. You vote for guys to pass laws to bring society in line with what you want it to be, then the unelected judges come in and just "vote" on that law so as to decriminalize abortion, drugs, you name it. So do these mythical laws even exist? I don't think so. Whatever whims the judge writes on his paper becomes law, and only because it actually makes police go out there and enforce it. I don't even know why they bother to keep up this charade. Why even waste all this taxpayer money on all these useless politicians?
- thiagoharry 3y agoPeople jailed because of the Brazilian version of the Capitolio invasion are NOT being framed by terrorism. They are being framed for armed criminal association, trying to abolish the rule of law, property damage qualified by the use of violence and menace and for destroying historical items. The only person framed with terrorism is the Bolsonaro supporter who months earlier tried to plant a bomb in an airport, which is the literal definition of terrorism. You CAN protest. You CANNOT try a coup, cannot try to abolish the rule of law, nor try to depose the elected president. Your whataboutism about left-wing protests against Temer do not even make sense. > what does it matter what brazilian law says? It's not even a civilized, democratic country anyway. OK, now I know Im just talking with a crazy Bolsonaro supporter. No right is absolute. You have freedom, but if you commit crimes, you are jailed. You do not know nothing about law and is repeating absurdities. Anyway, your reply is useful to show the partisanship of people echoing these news.
- matheusmoreira 3y ago> crazy Bolsonaro supporter And that's where this thread ends. Good day to you and don't reply to me again.
