        It's about time the idea of democracy got flushed down the toilet anyway. Who needs freedom, fairness, equal representation in government, and non oppressive policies? Bring on kelptocracies and open support of nationalism and despotism? Almost forgot nazis in the streets.😏😏😏

        Right. Soup to nuts, let's say 1215-2020. Not bad. Waay longer than Periclean Athens, longer by far than the Roman Republic. So, things keep improving.

        It isn't over yet, Charles. You should use your position and influence to champion hope, or, at the very least, remain quiet, rather than stoking fear and despair. There are many Brazilians who still believe in democracy. You should pay attention to them.

        Once you cede powers to fascists the voices of democracy get silenced. The recovery from fascism is painful and slow it's best not to let it gain power.
