RE: https://kolektiva.social/@personalescrito/117395420360960415 #Brazil: "The outcome of the October 4 election strengthens authoritarianism and Bolsonarism within the National Congress. This poses a clear threat to democracy in our country. False information bubbles and the lawless environment of social media have fostered a sentiment of rejection rather than one of nation-building and shaping the future. It is legitimate to desire change; steering that change toward the abyss and authoritarianism is very dangerous. We still have the opportunity, in the second round of the presidential election, to prevent the coup plotters from regaining control of the executive branch—now with even fewer safeguards than in the previous term. We cannot normalize the coup d’état or the violence." #Brazilelections2026 #farright #indigenous #environment #fascism #violence #democracy

"O resultado do pleito eleitoral do dia 4 de outubro fortalece o autoritarismo e o bolsonarismo dentro do Congresso Nacional. Isto representa uma ameaça evidente à democracia em nosso país. Através da Plataforma Congresso Anti-Indígena, o Cimi colocou à disposição da sociedade, durante esta campanha eleitoral, dados e informações que escancaram como a bancada majoritária da direita e da extrema direita no Congresso Nacional tem atuado, de forma sistemática, contra os direitos dos povos indígenas e contra a Constituição Federal. Essa mesma bancada reacionária foi responsável pela fragilização da política de proteção ambiental, pelas tentativas de blindagem dos parlamentares e pela legitimação da grilagem, além de impedir avanços sociais como o fim da escala 6×1. Muitos desses parlamentares, envolvidos em casos de corrupção e de violência, foram reeleitos. Bolhas informativas falaciosas e as ruas sem lei das redes sociais induziram a um sentimento de rejeição e não de construção de país, de futuro. Desejar a mudança é legítimo; conduzir a mudança para o abismo e o autoritarismo é muito perigoso. Ainda temos a oportunidade, no segundo turno das eleições para a presidência da República, de evitar que os golpistas retome o controle sobre o poder Executivo, agora com ainda menos salvaguardas do que no ciclo anterior. Não podemos naturalizar o golpe de Estado nem a violência" https://cimi.org.br/2026/10/nota-segundo-turno-democracia/ #eleicoes2026 #bolsonarismo #autoritarismo #extremadireita #corrupcao #violencia #ciminacional #Brasil

Awful! "The election outcome leaves the Amazon Rainforest and its peoples in peril: Bolsonarism gained ground and will soon govern seven out of nine states states in the biome where deforestation increased by 59% during the previous four years it held the presidency. Currently, five of the region’s state administrations – Acre, Rondônia, Roraima, Mato Grosso, and Tocantins – are aligned with the far right, led by former president Jair Bolsonaro, who was convicted of attempting a coup. As a result of the October 4 vote, it maintains control of these states and adds two more: Pará and Amapá. The far right, which is working to tear down legal barriers to predatory exploration in the Forest, will dominate the Amazon." https://sumauma.com/en/bolsonarismo-comandara-pelo-menos-sete-dos-nove-estados-da-amazonia/ #Brazil #Amazon #rainforest #farright #bolsonarism #elections #brazilelections2026 #environment

TL;DR:

  1. Flávio Bolsonaro: 47.03% (56.1 million votes)
  2. Lula: 45.16% (53.9 million votes)

The result was much better for the far right than I expected. It’s now very difficult to see Bolsonaro losing the second round.

My feeling that we were heading for a repeat of 2018 was right. At least this time, it won’t come as a surprise.

Prepare for an Americas increasingly dominated by the right and far right.

Europe may soon find itself as one of the last major strongholds of liberal democracy, until the far right takes power in France and/or Germany, which increasingly seems to be the direction we’re heading.

#Brazil The science behind the threat begins with chemistry. Steel bars embedded in concrete are protected by a passive oxide film sustained by the high alkalinity of the pore solution. Carbon dioxide from the atmosphere diffuses into the concrete & reacts with the cement matrix, a process called carbonation that lowers the pH & dissolves that protective layer https://bioengineer.org/climate-change-could-silently-corrode-brazils-concrete-buildings-study-warns/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #ClimateReversal #pollution #ecology #environment #climate
