Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Way to look like dipshits, Americans.

That's how they do it in civilized countries.

No, we have Supreme Court at home.

Supreme Court at home: nowhere near as good as the kind as you get in Brazilian restaurants

Is Bolsonaro still hiding out in Florida or did he return to Brazil?

No. He's been in Brazil for awhile. One year ago, he tried to hide in Hungary's embassy and spent 2 nights there.

But one of his sons is in the US after taking a leave from the lower house.

Should also be tried for crimes against humanity (as in, axing the shit out of the Rainforest).

The difference is Brazil knows what authoritarianism looks like, and they don't want more of it.
