Vc condenou Doria de modo mesquinho por encontrar um terreno comum com Lula - o que qq pessoa responsável está fazendo. Apenas pequenos partidários cheios de ódio denunciam isso agora. Não menciono Lula há meses. E os jornalistas podem ser criticados como qualquer outra pessoa.
Só não entendo como se pode passar tanto tempo falando que a esquerda é radical e aposta na polarização, e quando temos um movimento partindo dessa mesma esquerda de moderação, literalmente elogiando adversários políticos, você diga ser um erro.
Vera afirma que é contra a polarização, mas depois critica movimentos de aproximação entre adversários políticos *no meio de uma grave pandemia* pra salvar vidas. Os dois não dá.

A recusa em pagar esse dinheiro é uma tentativa deliberada de forçar as pessoas a sair para a rua - que escolha elas têm? como elas podem alimentar suas famílias? - a fim de acelerar as mortes com o objetivo de proteger a economia.

É moralmente grotesco, mas tb não vai funcionar
O governo dos EUA disse hoje que entre 100.000 e 240.000 americanos provavelmente morrerão de Covid-19 nos próximos dois meses - e e esse é o objetivo: pode ser mais se o isolamento e a quarentena não forem feitos corretamente.

O próprio Trump também condenou veementemente hoje aqueles que falam sobre o coronavírus como só uma "gripe".

Alguém deveria contar a seu amigo brasileiro sobre isso. #gripezinha

Again, why does Brazil - and several other countries - have their Congress working remotely, something that was done rather quickly and easily, but Nancy Pelosi refuses so Congress remains inactive in a crisis?

👉👉
From @davidmirandario:

David made that above video because he was shocked to see Sanders on the floor of the Senate given the coronavirus risks from forcing members to fly there and congregate together. Since then, @NydiaVelazquez said she likely has the virus. But disbanding Congress is even worse.

She is known in Germany as the “African Voice” and has particularly emerged from public debates forher commitment to a positive view of African countries and her rejection to development Aid. At 19, Veye Tatah moved to Germany to study computer science.
When it came to Africa, the pictures on TV were always the same: starving children, armed rebels. She was shocked when seeing the negative images of Africa in the media.

In EVERY state, #Sanders has done less well in 2020 than he did in 2016, underperforming by an average 17.6%.

In Vermont, for example, he won only 50.7% of the vote in '20, a drop of 35.4% from his '16 win. / thread
#Sanders' underperformance is partly explained by his failure to get new & young voters to the polls. In nearly every primary thru early March, fewer of those voters turned out than they did in '16.

.@CNN exit polls show nearly 3% fewer voters under 30 voted in '20 than they did in '16. #Bernie Sanders needed to overperform with this demographic.

This awed tone of MSM coverage of #Sanders is so gendered.

Harris and Klobuchar are both daughters of single mothers who had to raise their kids alone after their husbands left the families.
Warren also grew up in a working class family in Oklahoma.

THREAD📌📌📌
1/
Money was a stress for these women's families as well. Klobuchar has spoken movingly of her family's estrangement from her father, an alcoholic.
But the coverage of these women not only hasn't reflected this awe of their families' struggles, but has been harshly critical.

2/
No one has situated Klobuchar's perfectionism within the well-documented construct of being the child of an alcoholic fighting chaos.

Harris and Klobuchar both had to work harder than their male counterparts to get on their college & career paths, due to their backgrounds.
