Disturbing news comes to us from Brazil: supporters of fascist ex-president
Bolsonaro (who fled to the United States undefeated) are trying to take and holdCongress, the Supreme Court and the Palace presidential, seats of power of theBrazilian state. ---- In a sad remake of the Trumpists, two years after theassault on Capitol Hill led by the latter's white-hot supporters, the mostrelentless supporters of Bolsonaro, have also tried, in a visibly ill-preparedway, to overthrow newly enthroned leftist President Lula. ---- In Brazil, as inthe United States and elsewhere, the extreme right refuses to cede power bydemocratic means and reveals its true face of violence and hatred. If, at thepresent time, the danger of a reversal by force has been averted, this failedattempt is a reminder that once galvanized, the supporters of fascism do notshrink from any means of imposing their domination.Although the approach of the fascist militants did not find sufficient echowithin the dominant classes, the army and the police to succeed today in Brazil,it has shown, just as in the United States at two years old, that she could amasssufficient strength to attempt the coup de force. It is to be feared, in the faceof this failure, that the most frenzied activists will continue their fightthrough violence, in the first place against indigenous peoples and genderminorities, leftist and progressive activists.In Brazil, the United States and wherever it shows up, it is a determined andradical response that is needed in the face of fascism. Only the broadmobilization of the popular classes and the social movement, with determination,will be able to permanently roll back the ambitions of power and violence of thefar right.We express our total solidarity with all of our comrades on the spot, left-wingactivists and those who will be the first victims of fascism.Esmagar a extrema direita com luta, ação direta e class independence!Libertarian Communist Union, January 9, 2023https://www.unioncommunistelibertaire.org/?Les-fascistes-ne-gagneront-pas-Solidarite-avec-le-peuple-bresilien-face-a-la_________________________________________A - I N F O S N E W S S E R V I C EBy, For, and About AnarchistsSend news reports to A-infos-en mailing listA-infos-en@ainfos.ca
