Whby do Brazillians love the far right so much? This makes them look even worse than Trump Supporters/Maga.

Tbh, it's really worse, because even in 2016, Trump didn't managed to win on popular vote....

Brazil is a lost cause at this point.

lula is trying to be the voice of reason in that debate yet the Brazillians trust Bolsonaro more than him. Four years is more than enough time to indoctrinate and brainwash the masses to the bolsonaro cult.

It's also disgusting how in that debate, lula tried to discuss and point out legitimate problems while bolsonaro acted like a manchild and constantly changed topics, tyhis is the type of leader those dumb filthy brazillians want. a petulent boisterous brainlet

The economy is much better now than when Lula was in power. Brazil has had a lower inflation rate than the European Union this year, the first time in history that this has happened. Plus the economy is expected to grow up to 3% this year, which is not bad considering the recent years: covid and war in Ukraine. There were more than 4 million new businesses started up in Brazil during Bolsonaro's government.

Besides, violent crime has dropped drastically. The homicide rate is at its lowest in the last 40 years.

All in all, Bolsonaro's government has been much better than Lula's. That's the reason why more than 50% of the congress elected a month ago are "right wing" parties. The only reason Lula has got so many votes is because of his personality cult, there are people who think of him almost as a prophet, it's quasi-religious, especially among people with lower education levels. College educated people overwhelmingly vote for Bolsonaro.
