Turns out then maybe the PT is not the repository of all the world’s evils. And suggesting as much turns out to have been a very bad take, especially in the context of Brazil where, as JMB proves, the specter of actual fascism is never too far from the surface.

I NEVER wrote "the PT is not the repository of all the world’s evils" but I refute the equally wrong take that the pt bears no responsibility over the mess we are in. that's where I'm coming from. That's not false equivalence, that's trying to understand the historical process

Which brings us back to: https://medium.com/@bernajurema/4-things-the-international-left-gets-wrong-about-brazils-political-crisis-9de8c02604bf … Again what you meant might be different; what you wrote us clear. Somehow Greenwald seemed to have a better grasp of historical process, which in Brazil means in part recognizing how present fascism remains always already a threat.
