A Brazilian Explains Popular Outcry

June 21, 2013


0,,16897299_303,00.jpgAt least one million people have taken to the streets of Brazil, protesting everything from corruption and poor public services to the costs of the 2014 World Cup. The wave of protests hit at least 80 cities. The President is in emergency meetings.

A government-sponsored Marxist protest against transit fare increases in Sao Paulo (where the Opposition is in power) has backfired into a nation-wide popular uprising. Marcos explains what's behind the mass outrage.



Update: Dilma did a speech on TV last night. She was booed by people from the windows of their apartments. This must have been a first. Meanwhile, Sao Paulo's airport was shut down by manifestations.  Her "solutions": To bring Cuban agents disguised as doctors. To talk more with social movements and unions (all of them Marxist allies).
Polls show that 85% of people disapprove the way she behaved regarding the protests. People in the Party now want Lula to come back for the 2014 election, but rumors say his health is rapidly deteriorating. This is a huge crisis for the Party.

Brazil is on fire.

Initially the protests were started by Communists, complaining of a small (US$ 0,09) bus fare raise.

The tiny (40 members) "free ride group" was helped by a government funded NGO. Today the 23-year-old tattooed waitress who leads the group said they are "anti-capitalist" and that they now want rural and urban land redistribution. This is Marxism.

The government Communists shot themselves in the foot because they were overconfident and didn't count on the force of the internet and the dissatisfaction of the people. They are still trying to get the control back, but people just shoved them off. Today the president of the government's Workers Party called their militants to the street, but there were fights and people called them "opportunists".

It was a battle between green &yellow national flag carriers and red flag carriers. The reds lost. People in big cities hate Lula's Party. Everybody knows they have won because they gave dole money to buy votes in the backward underdeveloped areas (which remain underdeveloped). Yesterday 600 people got together in front of the former president's apartment building, calling him a thief (which he is).

The truth is that Marxists have been in power for a decade and people are fed up about several issues:

protests.jpg- US$ 28 Billion being wasted in the World Cup, with several corruption scandals.

- The criminals from the Workers Party who have already been convicted of corruption and buying out Congressmen, are still at large because of several tricks of the lawyers.

- The government is trying to pass the PEC37 law, which basically forbids any kind of investigation on corruption.

- Inflation is rising every month and the GDP growth was almost null.

- President Dilma has now 39 Ministries. She gives one for each corrupt ally in order to buy support in the Congress. We see a huge corruption scandal every week in the news.

- People who work are tired of seeing militants invading farms, and small groups and NGOs  getting tons of money from the government. Taxes are at 40% of GDP.  Education is in ruins, only teaching Marxism and gay issues, public health is a disgrace.

- Dilma is selling out Brazil in order too help Communist allies in Latin America, especially Cuba and Venezuela.  For example, she builds a harbor in Havana while our ports are falling apart. There are dozens of other examples. She has now given one billion dollars to African countries (debt pardon) because Brazilian construction companies with businesses there will give her money for her election campaign.

Now the protests area totally disconnected and without leadership. Nobody knows what will happen.

 Dilma called the Army (the irony) to defend the Palace...mobs trying to invade the Ministry of Foreign Relations...All roads out of Sao Paulo have been blocked by protesters...Rio's mayor Palace under attack...

Brazil has never seen anything like it. Even small cities are seeing protests with 10, 20K people.

The problem is that there is no conservative leadership in the country. It is possible that Communists may sacrifice the Workers Party and try to be more radical, pushing for a Venezuela style revolution. The Left is organized and has a strategy, based on the Forum of Sao Paulo organization.

They will do whatever it takes to direct the popular dissatisfaction. Some conservative people are organizing protests too.

At this moment, all we have is speculation.

My fellow countryman, Marcos, has hit all the nails right on the head.



I would just add that little note was made of the fact that with the lack of leadership and the necessary coordination with Police (bashed, demonized and cornered by the MSM - as usual), the huge gatherings of demonstrators lent themselves to shield mobs that wreaked havoc along the way, thus leaving behind a vast trail of damaged public and private property, therefore playing the role of “useful idiots” (In the capital city of Porto Alegre a bus adapted to carry also people on wheelchairs was burnt down - public property worth of US$ 350.000,00...)



I would not say it has been like, say... Detroit-1967 (judging from what I have read about it), but the degree into which ordinary middle-class Brazilians (exchanging slogans, tirades and gossip via Facebook) let themselves to be carried away into the fray despite the inevitability of riots makes me wonder about how easily manipulated they can be. Back at the office where I work (or the building where I live) I am now the most unpopular guy, and reading to them out loud the immortal lines on the psychology of the masses written by Edmund Burke or Gustave Le Bon did not help me at all.



Worse still, the demonstrations, fuzzy and leaderless as they have been, may be used (according to the analysis of the conservative journalist Reinaldo Azevedo) by the Workers Party (PT) to bypass Congress and Judiciary (a communist senator has already proposed, in earnest, the abolition of all the existing political parties) and push the country further to the Left. Reinaldo Azevedo has dubbed the current demonstrations as “Rosemary s Baby”. It does not bode well. Brrrr?

Response to JG:

Brazil has been multi-cultural almost since it’s founding. Look at the average “Brazilian”. As far as nationalism goes, the type of nationalism that most Brazilians believe in would be considered a from of left wing nationalism by the standards of most Americans. If you speak Portuguese and live in Brazil, whether you’re black African, White, Japanese, Indian, Arab, Chinese...you can be Brazilian! There was never much true nationalism (except for maybe south Brazil) and unity in Brazil. That’s why Brazil (like most Latin American countries) was only able to function under military dictatorships for most of its history.

Giving democracy to the Brazilian people was always going to end in chaos because you have many different groups of people looking out for their own interest. Even though many of the white Brazilians have mixed with the blacks because they claim to be “colorblind” (and the blacks want to become white because of self-hatred), people still notice features like hair and facial features. And this causes serious division and hatred between the brown or “pardo” population, and the blacks.

The white population of course still pretends to be colorblind because “we’re all Brazilians” but the pardos and especially the blacks don’t and have never looked at it that way. They (pardos and blacks) might pretend to be colorblind so a white Brazilian would marry them and have kids with them. But trust me, they notice skin color.

The World Order Marxists are going to have a rough go of it in Brazil for many reasons
First of all Brazil has not been de-nationalized by multi-culturism.

Second of all Catholicism has not been effectively replaced by the "doctrine of demons" quite yet.

Third of all America cannot be the enforceable "hammer" for the Marxist NWO right now in that part of the world now, it has it's hands full in the Middle East.

However, if the Marxist World Order Bankers control all of Brazil's currency than they have a very good chance of succeeding there.
