      Honestly, I think, if handled right, the fall of the U.S could be a huge boon to central and south america. That is of course as long as the flailing empire doesn’t decide on invading.

    Brazilian here.

    A year ago, the prices of food were through the roof, public opinion was against Lula and there were protests because of it all.

    Now?

    The far right is sinking faster than the Bismark, Lula is in a good position to be reelected without a run-off election and prices are going down again (we even had a bit of deflation in August).

    A lot of this has to do with The Orange Pustule’s reaction to the conviction of his criminal friend Boslonaro. In the end, Drumpf is the best campaign manager Lula could hope for.

    I was under the impression that the lower prices were going to be for Americans. I guess he technically kept his promise.

    Hopefully, with the excess food they can’t trade to other countries we’ll get a food discount in America. 🤣🤣🤣

    I know capitalism is all about greed and they’ll find a way to make money rather than give it us.

    nice, he’s successfully lowered food prices!

    I wonder how much America needs to dismantle itself and plunge its people into hell to make up for its share of the net evil caused from the end of WWII…?

    (“net evil” because there’s some good and bad, and “share” because a lot of other countries participated…)
