Former president Lula got condemned to nine years in jail. Meanwhile most members of the Temer cabinet and congressmen allied to him that were involved with some serious graft and corruption charges had their accusations silently wiped under the rug these past few months. Also the Senate passed the new labor laws that are widely hated by everyone and will roll back rights a century. :discourse:

there will be insane civil unrest in brazil

They already did with most of the petty-bourgeoise. The reactionary tide started to ebb these last few months but there's still a lot of idiots who support the military "taking care of stuff again" and unironic monarchists.

idealized peasant proprietorship or skilled laborer pseudo guilds are still the original cause for people going "gently caress the capitalists" so mutualism and syndicalism will have to exist on the way to communism

the petit-bourgeoisie will fall away by themselves so there is no need to target them.

but yeah central planning is the only way out of this garbage world

but still the fact that there is a low key dirty war going on in south america is shameful as gently caress

Outsourcing is now completely open, you can hire temp workers for more time without having to pay them full time salaries, 48 workhour week, collective bargaining gets precedence over the current labor law (and since collective bargaining is way slanted in favor of the employer than the employee this means you either accept to get hosed in the rear end or get fired)

according to the brazilian government, opening 860,000 acres of rainforest to deforestation is a "compromise measure." i hate to side with Mrs. Tom Brady on anything but she's got a point

After eight months since the minister of finance said that taxes won't increase, Taxes for fuel will double which will end up increasing prices for almost everything. This will probably kill Temer's support with the business class alongside the fact that he tried to pass an executive order to dampen the damage that labor reform will make. Oh yeah Jose I forgot but alongside the changes it's now legal to make pregnant women work on "unhealthy" work environments.

Some good cartoons from a Mexican newspaper making fun of Fox and other politicians for going after Venezuela when there's rampant abuse and corruption in Mexico.
