Deltan Dallagnol stated that leftist militants had vandalized and graffitied Avenida Paulista during a protest that, according to him, was portrayed as a "revolution." He questioned the idea of a revolution in defense of a government that, in his view, had been in power for almost 20 years. He said that a worker and her colleagues had to clean up the damage the next day and argued that ordinary people bore the consequences of the militants' actions. He also accused the political group that, according to him, had dominated Brazilian politics for almost 20 years of being linked to the largest corruption scandals in the country's history. Dallagnol related the situation to the concept of "The Chosen," attributed to Thomas Sowell, and stated that the left considered itself morally superior and tried to impose its ideas without taking responsibility. He also criticized what he described as the arrogance and aggressiveness of the militants, saying that such behavior had alienated the left from ordinary people. #Brasil #Mudança #Revolução (translated)

It lasted less than a day. Many were individuals who had been in prison or had problems with alcohol and drugs. They were transported by a group of people who crossed the border from Russia on buses and urged them to occupy the building. Once they were inside, they turned towards Russia. There was Motorola [Arsen Pavlov, a Russian paramilitary leader who would later intervene in the war in Donbas]. Our investigation led us to talk to detainees, analyze the documents they had left when they retreated, and visit the places where they had stayed. The conclusion was indisputable, and my thesis is that the preparation for the occupation of Donbas did not begin in 2014, after the Maidan uprising [the popular uprising that led to the fleeing of pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych], but much earlier, perhaps after the Russian invasion of Georgia in 2008. Close to a hundred Russians crossed the border dressed as civilians, as if they were tourists. They had no weapons. They went straight to Villa María. That is where they had left the uniforms and weapons with which they appeared on the streets of Sloviansk. The church employees were involved in the preparation, including a priest, who later became one of the leaders of the armed groups. #GuerraEnUcrania #Rusia #Donbás (translated)

Jones Manoel stated that 14 young people from Gravatá, in the interior of Pernambuco, were detained on Saturday (October 10) after a lambe activity in the streets, and that there was an attempt to frame the case as electoral crime. He said that the activists were denouncing actions by Flávio Bolsonaro and disputed the accusations of disseminating false news, stating that the material had journalistic foundation. Manoel described lambe-lambe as a historical form of popular communication used by social movements, artists, and political organizations to bring ideas and denunciations to the streets. He argued that any issues regarding heritage, property, or the use of public space should be addressed through legal means, without intimidation or selective criminalization. The author also stated that the actions of the activists were being treated as a police case, while other forms of advertising occupied the streets, and attributed to Bolsonaro's supporters a systematic strategy of intimidation to block the political change he advocated. #LiberdadeDeExpressão #Militância #LambeLambe (translated)

Xico Graziano criticized Lilia Schwacz for a video in which, according to him, the professor said she would use Pix as much as possible because Flávio Bolsonaro could end the system by order of Donald Trump. Graziano classified the statement as false and questioned whether Schwacz knew this or truly believed that a victory for Bolsonaro would leave Brazil subservient to the United States. The author highlighted that Schwacz was a professor of Anthropology at USP, a Global Scholar from Princeton, an award-winning writer, and the owner of the publishing house Cia das Letras. He also stated that she was elected to the Brazilian Academy of Letters in March 2024 for chair 9. Graziano compared the video to her inauguration speech two years earlier, in which, according to him, Schwacz had advocated for the strengthening of institutions and citizenship. Graziano questioned whether the professor had used her prestige to deceive the public and speculated about the reasons for the publication, mentioning the possibility that she had consumed alcohol or was out of touch with reality due to living in an academic bubble. He also associated the episode with what he described as an old ideology of the Brazilian intellectual left, formed in the 1950s and 1960s and still linked to the class struggle. #FakeNews #Cidadania #Antropologia (translated)
