My fucking GOD. Just listen to Palloci's testimony.
Despite all the evidence arising since the 'Mensalão', you guys still believe the guy is some kind of a holy saint... Lula was even mocked in his first term for 'not knowing anything, never' LMAOOO

In which part did I defend Bolsonaro? My point is clear: massive evidence suggests Lula was chief of two major bribery schemes to buy out he Congress. This doesn't imply Bolsonaro is better. My answer was to dismantle a narrative in which Lula charges were disregarded. No, they were not disregarded. The whole trial and its findings were reverted and got back to another instance.
Imagine that Dahmer, the murderer, was convicted by a court in New Jersey and arrested. After appealing, one court decided he was judged in the wrong Jurisdiction and sent all the proceedings back to another place, I don't know, Washington D.C, for instance. By no means Dahmer is 'innocent'.

Greenland greenwald ? I'm from Brazil, I can actually read the sentences, I can see the trial footage of the minister saying Lula is the head of culorruption schemes. My critique to Lula does not mean I'm a Bolsonaro fan, but our election's reaslt is far from being something to root for

Lmaaao presenting Lula as a mere Justice victim is a complete distortion of the facts. Massive evidence, which was analyzed - and ractified - by all branches of Brazil's judicial system, points Lula as a commander of two main corruption schemes to buy out the Congress. Indeed 'Lava Jato' had some abusive measures against Lula and others but by no means he's innocent
