Modern fascists around the world all follow the same playbook.

1. Lie nonstop

2. Be an intentionally hypocritical troll at all times

3. Attack your capitol and rub your feces on the walls when you lose an election

@godpod the authorities in Brazil didn't screw around. They moved in and arrested participants by the dozens, and hauled them off to jail.
@dzeigler @godpod “by the dozens” is a bit of an understatement, it was more like more than 200 of them. On the other hand, considering just how many were there, that doesn’t seem like much. :/
@joaogomes @godpod OK. Many dozens. 😎 On January 6, 2022, most of the traitors that overran the US capital were able to just go home. 😡
@dzeigler @joaogomes @godpod well not quite home that night. They went to their hotel and hung out in the lobby talking about the exciting day.
@joaogomes @godpod @dzeigler It was unknown how many were armed but there are police radio transmissions of visual confirmation of hand guns and rifles. Could have been a bloodbath.
@dzeigler @godpod should have happened immediately in the USA as well. At the very least they should have taken pictures of both the people and their identification as they left. Everyone has a portable camera now.
@dzeigler @godpod that's after the police opened the way for people to invade. 😪
@dzeigler @godpod that’s because Bolsonaro is not still in charge. If they tried that with Biden in the WH we’d have a different situation than 1/6.
@dzeigler US needs to return Bolsonaro to Brazil
