Sounds like he was a very good leader.
But too much support for Bolsonaro, and his party.
Wtf Brazilians.
He is from the left wing party.

Okay. Thanks for that Joshua.
Sorry if you think heās some great thinker or something. Heās a class A jackass, always has been, and has been busy promoting up some pretty dangerous ideas so Iām not really seeing a ton of actionable life lessons. Hope he gets the help and medication he so clearly needs.
Hopefully the environmental situation in the amazon gets better and activists stop disappearing.
Brazil is very corrupt place so not sure how effective Lula will be

Well considering half the country wanted him, was he really that bad?
Apart from pandemic denier, is he guilty of anything else?
Hates gay people, hates abortion, hates immigrants, loves police brutality.
Heās a far right politician and as we know far right political parties generally tend to be pretty fucking bigoted lol

People hated him because he was a populist in the mould of Donald Trump of Donald trump.

I reckon itās got more to do with some of the outrageous things he said. Like his anti gay rhetoric, his hated for migrants, his denial of the pandemic, his liberal views on police brutality and whatnot
I guess he may be.
I have observed that the image of a non-progressive politician is often tainted by accusations that are not always true or not as severe.

Maybe because itās not as people has been saying.
His homophobic views alone should be enough to make him unelectable in a modern society.

What did he say that was homophobic?
The usual list of anti gay, anti abortion etc is par for the course for leftist criticism
I think this is one of those situations where the politician in question is every inch as bad as people suggest.
Bolsonaro is not a nice man by any stretch of the imagination. Heās an extreme bigot. This isnāt Trump where some of his misgivings are over exaggerated by people who just donāt like him.
Bolsonaro is a wicked wicked man.

This would be the point for you to do some googling, read some articles and reach your own conclusion, instead of asking people on a football forum and then aimlessly casting doubt on the response you get from them without even looking into it first.
He was against having homophobia be a criminal offence. He said he didnāt want Brazil becoming a āgay tourism paradiseā. And he said he would be incapable of loving a homosexual son.

He literally said he was homophobic and proud of it.
But Iām sure there is some ambiguity to be found there if you look hard enough.

Isnāt 49% of votes going for Bolsonaro, not a good indicator to cast that doubt?
