He was indeed guilty of trying to commit a coup. And that shouldn’t be allowed. | ||

He "tried" to commit a coup? If only. Maybe if he had actually tried it, there would have been an actual reason for this circus. Who knows, he might have actually succeeded and we wouldn't be living under a communist judiciary dictatorship right now. The real coup was perpetrated by the supreme court itself. Judges have always been literal gods in this cursed land but at least there was a tiny veneer of civilization. It began in 2019 when some magazine ran a damning article on one of these judges. In response to that they launched a "fake news" inquisition where they were the victims, investigators, prosecutors, judges and executioners against unspecified persons for wildcard crimes covering the whole brazilian territory. Thus began the escalating abuses of the court. They just kept usurping more and more powers until they started blatantly violating the constitution. You could literally read the words written on the constitution and watch them do the exact opposite. By now it's gotten to the point they have their own lifetime praetorian guard to protect them, and they have usurped numerous functions of the government. Not a single brazilian voted for these judges, yet they walk all over our senate and legislators by basically making things up as they go along. Pity this "coup attempt" never actually materialized. More of a counter-coup really. It's just comical to watch Bolsonaro be judged for something he was too much of a coward to pull off. Dude was chilling in Florida while the judge-kings were sentencing everyone who ever supported him to 15+ years in prison for the "coup attempt". |
