Still down for me.

That's great news. I'm so happy for my queer Thai friends. A beautiful country with a very warm and welcoming people (and delicious food).

The thing is: you get used to your own smell. But others don't. Specially those that shower regularly. So, while you may think that you're fine, others will catch on your smell before you do.

Still one of my favorite "documentaries" of all time.

I don't think HN is the right place to have this discussion. So, have a good night.

Unless you want to have a childish view of reality you have to agree that if it's done under the law there's not much you can do. Our history is filled with such cases. From all sides of the political spectrum. The proclamation of the republic, the Getulio dictatorship, the military dictatorship, Dilma's impeachment, etc...

I'm not quoting anyone. You can independently check all facts on the links I provided. They're not opinion pieces. They're just facts. There was an attempt to bomb an airport to create chaos. There were people blocking roads and camping on military bases asking for a coup. There was an invasion to the congress and to the SJ building by people asking for a military coup. There are confessions from military generals that Bolsonaro approached them to back his coup attempt. These are all facts available in plain sight for anyone to see.

[1,2] If a lawyer is defending a criminal does that mean he's aiding them or somehow part of their criminal organization? It seems you don't understand how law works. The guy has been a high profile lawyer for decades before he became SJ minister. You want him to be poor?!

[3] Just allegations with no substantiality.

[4] He has an injunction that allows him to "censure" people and media in regards to the 2022 election. It was approved by the whole SJ court.

What are their crimes?!

He's lying. Lula is corrupt? Of course he is. Just as corrupt as anyone that came before and after him. But he's far from being the biggest criminal. He's the first president in BR history to really narrow the gap of social inequality.

That's why the extreme right hates him and persecuted him until he was illegally jailed. He was so popular that they were afraid that he would be able to install a communist government in Brazil.

But Lula is just a populist. He's center left and friends with all big bankers. He's far from a communist. But he's no angel.
