    I doubt that Lula is much better… He was involved in corruption. But at least he is a bit better in terms of his politics.

      He was involved in corruption in the same way any politician with actual power is: he had to play nice with tons of crooked mafia bosses that are established in the system for decades or even centuries.

      They literally sweeped his and his family’s private life looking for something and had to make stuff up to jail him.

      So, please spare us of this relativization of a genocidal dictator wannabe.

        Yea there’s a major difference in “playing ball” because you have no choice and willingly contributing to the corrupt system.

        As i understand it he was involved in a very big corruption case that made him get convinced for it and he spent jail time. If this was politically motivated or not I don’t know but it makes me think he’s not so great.

        I do not say I like Bolsonaro one bit. If you think I wrote this because I support him you have me all wrong.

      Don’t be fooled, every politician in this country is corrupt. As presidents the difference is like night and day though, Lula is miles better.
