NGO's come and claim resources on the land to mine what is rightfully Brazil's. Happening for a long time now and Lula has the pipeline open again for anyone to come in and get a piece and loot. Also, author left out how Lula was in jail for corruption before he became pres again.

It's grimly amusing how the grabbier half of society literally cannot comprehend that not everyone is as selfishly motivated.


It's a jangoist narrative but sometimes it is the truth.


"in jail for corruption" Can you please explain to our global audience what crime he committed to be jailed for corruption?!

Can you also explain why the judge who sentenced him manipulated the law to judge a case that was completely out of his jurisdiction? Also, that Lula was the number one candidate in pools before he was jailed? And that this same judge went to become a minister of the candidate he helped elect by getting Lula out of the run?

Corruption.


>Also, author left out how Lula was in jail for corruption before he became pres again.

You left out a few things, like the corrupt judge that sentenced Lula during an election where he was the absolute favourite, and months later was made minister by the genocidal president he helped elect.

Thankfully a modicum of sanity is being restored and the corrupt judge is now being investigated.


Bullshit. Moro vice is vanity not corruption. Lula was freed not because he is innocent but because the mafia judges nullified the process. Crime took a significant hit when Moro was minister of justice, reduction in homicides, effective border control. No wonder that criminals and their leftists supporters hate him. The current government is incapable of fighting crime and it is thriving to the dismay of millions of daily victims. I'm ashamed of being Brazilian because of people like you.


You are factually wrong. The homicide rate is still declining as of 2023. Also worth it to note that the military dictatorship was responsible for the explosion in urban crime and violence in the 70s and 80s, which persists to this day.

The feeling of shame is mutual and I'll add disgust. I decided to leave Brazil after Bolsonaro was elected and I heard gunshots and death calls from neighbors, savages like yourself.

The things that made the world shocked and disgusted about Bolsonaro - the promotion of violence, the ties with the milícias (mafia), the contempt with human life and dignity, the hate of the natural environment - foreigners did not understand that those were exactly the things his supporters, like you probably are, loved about him.

Bolsonaro routinely said things like "we should have murdered 30,000 people (during the dictatorship)". Those statements don't lose votes, they gain votes from an appalling, bloodthirsty, evil minority like the commentor above.

You're wrongly assuming I'm a Bolsonaro supporter because in your world anyone that criticizes your idol must be a Bolsonaro supporter and evil. The truth is that both Lula and Bolsonaro are evil beyond doubt but most of their supporters are victims of polarization and disinformation rather than bad persons.

Dude, Brazil was always a savage place. Obviously it's not a good thing but you're very privileged if this is the worst you have faced and you were able to leave the country. The reality is that most Brazilian face worse and can only dream of emigrating.

What do you expect from a population heavily traumatized by crime and violence where yearly homicides far exceed 30K?

I'm more worried about a minority in Brazil which openly support a socialist revolution with mass executions and all. I'm worried about seemingly educated individuals supporting a corrupt president that is friends with dictators and evil regimes like Putin, Maduro, al-Assad, Gaddafi, Xi, Iran, Hamas.

> You are factually wrong. The homicide rate is still declining as of 2023.

I'm not. In 2018 and 2019 when Moro was Minister of Justice we saw unprecedented 2-digits decline in homicide rate. In 2020 after he was fired homicide rate increased. Further declines were timid in comparison and crime is thriving despite homicides falling because the current system rewards crime and the current government doesn't care about crime.

Moro anti-crime measures weren't by no optic authoritarian. I don't see how those events can be relevant to this discussion besides you wanting to make false implications.


Nice to see that believing in fake news are not an intelligence related tract.


There is a removable, 3-layer microporous candle inside where the filtration process occurs, and is recommended to be replaced every 6 months or so. The innermost layer is also activated carbon which the water must drip through to get to the bottom layer.

I think you're right about some build up over time in the clay as it must retain some impurities. It's pretty common to clean it every once in a while to prevent that build up, at least that is what's mentioned by Brazilians that have used this filter for decades
