well, at that point i was honestly ready for it already, but had a deep distrust of any politics or political theory. bolsonaro’s open fascism scared the shit out of us and my reaction was to study and understand it, so as to get how we destroy it.

as it turns out, socialists know a thing or two about it and more. i wasn’t alone either, bolsonaro and his cultists have radicalized a lot of people here.
