1. Oh, I just found out that the USA government also forced out a democratically elected leader in #Australia! Over Pine Gap! There you are. I know why I missed this Coup: I was busy being terrified that the USA sponsored fascists would kill my brother.

2. My bad: I was just 12 and I failed to look at the global context. Oh, wait: I didn't. I knew all about the other #LatinAmerican RW dictatorships sponsored by the USA.

3. I was just wondering: I think it's time to bring up reparations. Since the USA screwed up our countries, how about undoing that shit? Start with taking an oath of NEVER, EVER AGAIN intervening in another country - not your circus, not your monkeys.
4. Yours truly,

the people from non-imperialist countries

1. I have a bunch of great policy ideas that would be utterly unpopular in an electoral platform because the so glorified "masses" are conservative (existentially conservative). Examples:
2. The end of the war on drugs, legalization of all drugs and abolishing the prescription requirement to purchase medication.

I love this idea and I know it is the best for both patients and physicians. However, it can't even be exposed now, it involves years of...
3. ... parallel educational, community and health policies and .. why bother.

1. please RT ad nauseam

I don't think it's on English speaking outlets yet:

There is a #RIGHTWING COUP being organized in plain site in #Brasil BY #Bolsonaro , his corrupt law enforcement apparatus and organized crime NOW.

#BrazilianCoup
#antifascism
#democracyatrisk
2. He has "scheduled" a demonstration for his supporters, for March 15, to CLOSE THE CONGRESS. This is what is called an "auto-Coup" - not a new thing and as bad as one that deposes a democratically elected ruler.
3. The news below are in Portuguese. As soon as I can I'll add whatever is published in English. I can't do that now (write the news story): I'm not there with the sources and I don't have time to produce a good story today.

1. Senão vejamos: no momento, no Brasil, temos:

* um executivo planejando abertamente um golpe, com direito a fechamento do Congresso e pau naqueles que estão questionando a ultra-direita;

2. * em aliança com as forças policiais, o crime organizado e seu filho híbrido, conhecido como "as milicias" (às quais o próprio presidente pertence);

3. * as forças armadas, até agora hesitantes, na pior sinuca de bico da história: ou apoiam o golpe e as forças democráticas serão esmagadas em estilo anos sessenta, ou não apoiam e acontece uma guerra civil surreal, =>

1) WHY WOMEN KEEP SILENT

So, I was raped when I was about four. It never occurred to me to say anything until I was about eleven.
2) At four, I didn't know what the term rape meant; I knew what had been done and that it wasn't right but who would I tell?? I was ashamed.
3) I remember thinking I'd be mortified if my parents ever found out I'd been a "participant" in this lewd act. God forbid they found out.
