Brazil's Secretary of Culture released a video last night promoting a National Arts award with rhetoric and imagery highly inspired by Nazi propaganda.

He dicktucked this morning after turmoil and was fired when it became inevitable. Bolsonaro did attempt to shrug it off, defended the guy and tried to blame it on "the left", but his neoliberal friends eventually convinced him that this kind of thing is totally unnecessary in their plan to bend over to the USA and destroy Brazil. Media pretended to be enraged but of course they failed to point or ask why is that Bolsonaro and Nazi rhetoric can become so similar and how can you champion radical nationalism and at the same time make a point of being Trump's little puppy dog and feel happy about it.

Not sure if that translates well. He is below in rank to a Minister (BBC headline is wrong). Like his unit is part of a Ministry.

Bolsonaro pretends to reduce state offices drastically but he mostly just reshuffled a lot of stuff.

At least their regime isn't pretending to be something other than fascist. All the Brazilian MMA fighters and jiu jitsu dorks who endorsed this guy need to be held accountable. Most of them haven't even lived in Brazil for a decade but decided to weigh in with their moronic opinions.

I imagine Bolsonaro had to be talked into firing this guy. His initial reaction was probably "oh, no big deal"

The Avalon Project : Program of the National Socialist German Workers' Party

the national socialist german workers party platform sounds pretty socialist to me . this sounds like some shit crazy bernie would say minus the punishment of death parts




11. That all unearned income, and all income that does not arise from work, be abolished.

Breaking the Bondage of Interest

12. Since every war imposes on the people fearful sacrifices in blood and treasure, all personal profit arising from the war must be regarded as treason to the people We therefore demand the total confiscation of all war profits.

13. We demand the nationalization of all trusts.

14. We demand profit-sharing in large industries.

15. We demand a generous increase in old-age pensions.

16. We demand the creation and maintenance of a sound middle-class, the immediate communalization of large stores which will be rented cheaply to small tradespeople, and the strongest consideration must be given to ensure that small traders shall deliver the supplies needed by the State, the provinces and municipalities.

17. We demand an agrarian reform in accordance with our national requirements, and the enactment of a law to expropriate the owners without compensation of any land needed for the common purpose. The abolition of ground rents, and the prohibition of all speculation in land.

18. We demand that ruthless war be waged against those who work to the injury of the common welfare. Traitors, usurers, profiteers, etc., are to be punished with death, regardless of creed or race.

19. We demand that Roman law, which serves a materialist ordering of the world, be replaced by German common law.

20. In order to make it possible for every capable and industrious German to obtain higher education, and thus the opportunity to reach into positions of leadership, the State must assume the responsibility of organizing thoroughly the entire cultural system of the people The curricula of all educational establishments shall be adapted to practical life. The conception of the State Idea (science of citizenship) must be taught in the schools from the very beginning. We demand that specially talented children of poor parents, whatever their station or occupation, be educated at the expense of the State.

21. The State has the duty to help raise the standard of national health by providing maternity welfare centers, by prohibiting juvenile labor, by increasing physical fitness through the introduction of compulsory games and gymnastics, and by the greatest possible encouragement of associations concerned with the physical education of the young.

Which "fascist" regime are you referring to?

It's also kind of disappointing to see you infantalize a country like this.

LOL I'm 70% sure you're on a wind up but well done, I'll bite.

They were Nationalist, not Socialist. They had it in their name and that's all. They were far right in ideology and practice. Socialism puts power and wealth in the hands of the people through redistribution; they didn't have any of that. Removed democracy, were adverse to social welfare (preferring Darwinism) and were responsible for genocide. None of this represents socialism.

They banned existing trade unions, strikes and lockouts. They gave contracts, subsidies and special treatment to businesses that supported them.

They were not socialist at all.

A lot of what you list as being unique to the far right are prevalent in socialist/communist societies as they are fascist ones. Most notably the genocide part.

It might be prevalent in societies that claim to be socialist. It is not a socialist principle and is categorically against the idea of putting wealth and production in the hands of the people.

Socialism: a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.

Genocide, especially of your own citizens, is clearly counter to this.
