Brasil hasn't been under
military rule for 40 years. There's a rich participatory
electorate who, as elsewhere, swing in their decisions over
the years, but a military dictatorship this is not.

  To be fair, we suffered a coup in 2015. The President was
impeached without committing any crimes and the favorite candidate for
the 2018 Presidential elections (polls gave him almost 70% of the
vote)was put in jail because a judge was "pretty sure" he was corrupt.
He used newspaper cuttings as "proof" of corruption. No actual
physical proof.
And Bolsonaro got in with the help of millions of social media
messages a day. And almost managed to reinstate the military
dictatorship after he lost the elections on 2022.
If he wasn't so corrupt and if people's lives had not
deteriorated so much he might have pulled it off.
