I’m assuming that we’re not supposed to consider Tony Abbott or the Australian Liberal party in general as ‘dystopian overlords’? How 'bout the coal lobby? Or Rupert Murdoch?

I mean, if they’re going to save us from the coronavirus strategy of Scotty from Marketing and his gang of spivs, shills, and barking lunatics, then… I’m open to it?

Given that that strategy, insofar as you can dignify it with the term, seems to be “do sod-all, actively prevent other people doing anything, blame everyone else for the failures, and claim all the credit for everyone else’s successes”. You know, just like his strategy for all natural disasters.

That ilk considers anything that helps people dystopian. Well, at least the lower income people who pay taxes.

Is Trump’s endorsement going to help or hurt Bolsonaro? I can’t imagine many Brazilians who are on the fence about Bolsonaro would be encouraged by a Trump endorsement…

I think It is important. It will add “value” to the “brand” and will keep his faithful base mobilized.

It will be perceived as an Alliance and that Mr. Bolsonaro isn’t alone.

Last months He was mumbling against the voting machines and the supreme court. It seems He changes his mind as the seasons pass by, and now started to say vaccines could be “bad” for you.

I wonder what Summer will bring us.

To be fair, they’ve always thought those disableds have it too good with their cushy benefits and luxurious lifestyles and special privileges.

I’m surprised that things could get much worse for disabled people than they already are in Britain. I don’t think there has been a real increase in disability welfare in 15 years now, any extra money has been below inflation if there is an increase at all. The Christmas bonus is just an annual joke, it has been £10 since 1974.

That’s not a joke, that’s an insult.
