I left Facebook since 2015. No regrets so far. About Trump, I'm not from USA so I'm not very knowledgeable about America's politics, but from what I know it's crazy to think he could win a second time, specially after the Capitol episode. Here in Brazil we had our Trump-like president (who was actually a fan of Donald Trump) and it was awful. And we had something similar to what happened in the Capitol, except nobody died here. It was ridiculous to see.

The same fascist ideologies that blossomed under Trump also blossomed under Jair Bolsonaro. Trump and Bolsonaro are like two peas in a pod, so it wasn't the least bit surprising to me to see a similar attempted insurrection in Brazil.

Same! 1 Jan 2015 I cut that cord and it has been fantastic! Now I don’t know what my shitty in laws political views are until I actually see them where I can just ignore every word that comes out of their mouths instead of being inundated with their idiocy all the time.
