Brazilian politics: >local oligarchs are fucking up so badly and taking the bait so hard, the US is being able to massively succeed at a delegitimization campaign internationally >US/Milei managed to rescue Flavio from the country >my pattern noticing powers are ringing
Here is my bet: Governors the police are going to turn against the federal government, with local and foreign support. Not militaristically, but just not recognizing their legitimacy and self-organizing/isolating them. This may become a permanent South Brazil vs North Brazil thing, but that would be desirable. Our local elites will probably surrender before it gets to that, once they realize the real situation, but I would like it to actually happen.
