@PopMobPDX @vantuckyyo @DavidNeiwert 1/ Who knows. When the fascists killed Marighella, in 1969, and Lamarca, in 1971 (and then a few other leaders), we were left pretty much helpless and acephalous. Well, that's the bad part of democratic centralism, although it's essential to the fight.

@PopMobPDX @vantuckyyo @DavidNeiwert 2/ Spontaneous movements and tiny resistance groups were formed by kids not older than 22, frequently much younger. I knew *all* the four members of the "dangerous" Movimento Popular Tiradentes.
@PopMobPDX @vantuckyyo @DavidNeiwert 3/ For years they were listed among the dangerous ravenous communist movements that would eat babies, kill priests, destroy families and whatever else they could invent about us. The four kids were undergraduate students who had never touched a gun.
@PopMobPDX @vantuckyyo @DavidNeiwert 4/ Obviously they had to go into exile. The ones that didn't ended up tortured, dead, and very often, never seen again.

@PopMobPDX @vantuckyyo @DavidNeiwert 5/ Almost half a century later, we're still clearing the truth about those facts. But here's the problem: there are new fascists there now (the Bolsonaro criminal mob). So they are digging up the old lies and giving them new life.
@PopMobPDX @vantuckyyo @DavidNeiwert 6/ To answer your question, the milkshake story can either be just another laughing matter for Saturday beer with tacos or it can turn into a great conspiracy of poisoning the good American people resisting the dangerous communist threat.
