Too bad justice can't be this swift in the US
Yeah does this mean Brazil is less corrupt than the US?
Always has been. corruption is greater where the power is greater and so there is bigger opportunities. Brazil has much more petty corruption the USA has built in corruption, that is deemed legal.
Seriously... it's been almost a year that Bolsonaro has been impeded from participating in any elections for the next 8 years.
Shit, only eight years? I thought it was in perpetuity. Better than nothing I guess, now we need to get rid of Tarcísio.
That much time is political death though. He’ll be thoroughly forgotten except the bad parts by then.
It’s pretty swift if you’re black.
Almost as if . . . naaahhh
Remember when he had COVID and got bit by an emu? Good times.
Was the emu OK?
No, but thank you for bringing it to my attention.
Shit if the left could recruit emus, it would become unstoppable.
They did defeat Australia!
Chickens coming home to roost, finally.
Did he go back to Brazil? I know right after the coup attempt he was in Miami for a bit.
He was there during the coup attempt actually, he left days before he finished his term. He eventually came back a few months into 2023.

A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
