What the fuck is this nonsense? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roko%27s_basilisk

@pensadorlouco @lorimeyers @evaristoramosarte @DanielaAbade eles estão reclamando de alguns dos estragos que ele está fazendo na economia mas não estão nem aí pro resto 🙃

Let's go MAAARTAAAAA ⚽👑

LB: Silva/da Silva is the most common surname in Brazil, so he made a "Silva World Cup" competition to elect the best Silva 🤣

EXACTLY THIS. The "tariffs" are actually an expansion of the US's regime of sanctions to all the other countries they weren't already targeting, to force total compliance with US policy. My hope is that it won't work any more, though--every country on the list has an incentive now to increase trade with every other country on the list, and there are a fucking lot of us. https://social.treehouse.systems/@AnarchoNinaAnalyzes/114281185981566507

During the Cold War, the US sent Christian missionaries to Brazil to promote capitalism and demonize communism 😡 https://www.intercept.com.br/2025/04/07/como-os-eua-usaram-a-religiao-para-combater-o-comunismo-no-brasil/

@Ze_Andarilho link??? 👀

Holy shit, this is really bad. They're going to publish a list of banned countries next month and might end up going a lot further than the original Muslim ban--basically, they could ban the whole Global South if they wanted to. And they're making it RETROACTIVE. (Article link: https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/trump-muslim-ban-new-version/#respond ) https://mastodon.social/@br00t4c/114060647957721254

@hellomiakoda congrats!!! Now I want coffee 😭

@lorimeyers quase certeza que era piada, né?

Why is everyone mad at the Pixelfed guy?

Brazilians being deported from the US were handcuffed, beaten, and mocked by ICE agents on the plane. Even scarier, the plane had technical problems that forced it to land in Panama and Manaus, and the deportees were only able to make it to Belo Horizonte (the capital of the state they were from) after the Brazilian government intervened and forced ICE to switch planes.

@cadusilva "oopsie we accidentally sold part of this national park to Friboi, haha sowwy" 💀💀💀

@cadusilva é, tipo, nos melhores dos casos, essas empresas vão realmente restaurar as florestas (para gerar lucro privado). Só que...o que vai acontecer se não restauram as florestas? Vão levar multinha? E lucrar mais ainda???

Fucking "carbon credits"?!

Que porra é essa, caralho?! 😡 https://newsie.social/@allthebrazilianpolitics/113883666549702352

The whole "it's a Roman salute and the Nazis don't own it" thing is such obvious bullshit, but I remember ostensibly liberal accounts making similar arguments whenever some bigwig in the Ukrainian military was caught with swastika merch ("mAyBe hE's zOrRoAstRiAn"), so...yeah. 💀

@hellomiakoda the couple of times I tried driving a SmartCar (one of those half-length cars) it was so much more convenient than a full-sized car, but being near any pickup/SUV that was driving aggressively was TERRIFYING, so I get why those aren't more popular even though they'd be good enough for a lot of people
