In Brazil especially it's far more important for these protests to materialize into organized political action and public debates. Overthrowing the government of Brazil would be unhelpful, Brazil has something approaching a functional democracy (certainly comparable to democracy in America during many parts of its history). That should not be thrown away. And with concerted political action it can be strengthened rather than weakened, as can liberty. I fear the temptation of the powerless to exercise power, even in the form of a violent mob, could outweigh the desire to fight for the deep, long-term changes that will actually see the country improve.
I dont think "America" is a good example of democracy..
Brazil is very sofisticated in terms of democracy than US is in many levels..
US economical development was in part because the industrial lords could do whatever they want without many concerns.. here we got more discussions about social aspects, and more people from diferent ways of views..
You see moviments like ocuppy were really choked by the mass media and
the politics in the very beginning..
People who dares to face against the status quo get convicted as traitors, get killed or are invited to leave the country (Chaplin)
