Notes from the Resistance
In the meantime, returning to the leftist playbook, look for Brazilians who question the election and defy tyrannical disarmament to be attacked and marginalized as extremists, criminals, racists, and “deplorables,” just like here. And just like here, they’re picking a fight to the finish with people who are proud of their heritage, vested in freedom, and not likely to grovelingly surrender their birthrights to their moral inferiors.

History repeats itself. And in more ways than one.
‘Every city’ in Brazil filled with protesters claiming election fraud – Possibly largest demonstration in history ‘and the global media is crickets’ [More]
Good.
And what else would we expect?

More than three weeks after losing a reelection bid, President Jair Bolsonaro on Tuesday blamed a software bug and demanded the electoral authority annul votes cast on most of Brazil’s nation’s electronic voting machines, though independent experts say the bug doesn’t affect the reliability of results. [More]
“Baseless,” right?
Now, this would be something:
“Brazilian Military is Just Waiting for Bolsonaro to Give the Order to Arrest Corrupt Communist Judge”
It kind of explains why our rulers have focused so intently on woke generals.
Regardless, it looks like a critical mass of Brazilians isn’t just going to roll over for Lula’s planned citizen disarmament.
We need to be able to say the same and be on our guard against the renewed divide-and-conquer strategy of spawning woke gun owners.
And Lula, of course, being an old socialist, is against guns, but Congress may stand in his way. No problem though, because we’re told he can put in place by decree “what Brazil had before.”
By diktat. Who does that? [More]
Prepare to repeat the past.
Brazilian president-elect Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva calls for ‘peace and unity’ after beating far-Right rival Jair Bolsonaro in knife-edge election that split the nation after millions cast their votes… but will the ‘Trump of the Tropics’ concede defeat? [More]
More to the point, will Brazilians who know better turn in their guns?
UPDATE
There may be more truth to that “Trump of the Tropics” reference than “progressives” care to admit.

‘The police come here to hunt’: Brazilian cops kill at 9 times the rate of U.S. law enforcement [More]
What does that really mean, who are they killing, and what kind of circumstances are we talking about here? And how does that compare with the “good old days”?
Seems kind of self-defeating that Brazilians are poised to oust the guy who wants them armed and bring in a corrupt Marxist who demands disarming them and bringing back an “Only Ones”-enforced monopoly of violence.
It figures the DSM would put out a timely hit piece to help make that happen, with The Los Angeles Times leading the pack.

“In Brazil, a group of people doing CrossFit passed by outside a restaurant, but those eating thought they were running away from something and decided to run away with them” [More]
If they vote the way things are looking, they’re going to need that instinct.

They would know that returning to restrictive gun laws under a corrupt regime would virtually guarantee a return to the tyranny of the past. [More]
Short memories and the siren song of “socialism” mean Brazilians will be repeating the misery of yesterday.
Booming gun ownership triggers fears for Brazil vote [More]
It wouldn’t if that communist Lula wasn’t intent on disarming them if he gets power again.
Remember the good old days?

After the Brazilian government permitted the killing of motor cycle riders who rob & kill citizens – in order to put an end to this menace, this is what the citizens there are doing!!! When Law Enforcement do not do their job, citizens will… [Watch]
And no, I don’t know how true that is, but who doesn’t love a happy ending?
It’ll be a sad one if they put Lula back in power.

On July 6, teachers-union activists began protests … The leadership of the construction workers union are militant leftists… [More]
Thanks, Jimmy Carter and the Senate!
And as long as we’re heading south:
But with just over two months before the first round of voting, opinion surveys widely show Brazilians think they’d be better off without Bolsonaro. Frustration over the spiraling cost of living has propelled Lula to lead the race by more than 10 percentage points. [More]
And what will be one of the first things Lula does when he’s back in power…?
