farawaysaint Posted 30 October, 2022 Share Posted 30 October, 2022 In before Bolsonaro refuses to concede and cries fraud. (Lula has now been called the winner by the major polling houses with 99% counted.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tajjuk Posted 31 October, 2022 Share Posted 31 October, 2022 Yeh its good news for the global climate as Bolsanaro was screwing the Amazon hard and exploiting it, he's a big climate denier. Hopefully this will signal some policy reversals and see the rainforest recover a little as its massively important for global CO2 levels. I think really its a bit of a Biden vs Trump situation, the two options are still bad, but one is completely horrific and dangerous, whereas the other is just more typical bad politician. (Though credit to Biden he seems to have become a lot better recently and done a lot of unexpected good) As far as I understand it Lula was basically corrupt and just got away with it, though he seems to claim it was a stitch up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 31 October, 2022 Share Posted 31 October, 2022 Good, one fewer right wing crackpot ruling the world. I can’t imagine his hopeless Covid denial and stubborn inaction did him too many favours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
