you really should have mentioned that the judge in lula's case was corrupt and colluded with the prosecution, and bolsonaro also has issues with corruption
Fun fact: The center-right candidate soundly defeated by Lula in the 2006 election is now his running mate in this year's election. The US equivalent would be something like Obama being allowed to run again in 2028 and picking Romney as his VP.
Except Obama was center right and pro big business. Which was why no one went to prison for the sector wide fraud in the financial crisis and Obama continued Bush era foreign policies like mass surveillance. Obama is the opposite of Lula. Not even remotely close.
Good video. However, any explanation of Brazil's politics in the last decade without considering the partial role of Sergio moro - the judge that prosecuted Lula - and his alliance with Bolsonaro is missing a crucial step.
Completely false and proven false by numerous international agencies, Lula is a Chinese sellout who will throw any Brazilian under the boss to enrich himself and Beijing
Lol He was supposed to be in prison, a bandit created the biggest criminal organization Brazil has ever seen, having that bandit as president is a shame!!
@@CaesarLvcivs He wouldn't. He literally won three years after being released. And he would've won then as well, even though "antipetismo" was on its rise. Bolsonaro is the first president, ever since redemocratization, to be unable to re elect himself. It just shows how incompetent he was, though his army is huge and particularly noisy (still couldn't shut up to this day).
English speakers might be able to imitate the sound properly if they spell out "zh". In IPA it's written as /ʒ/ and called a voiced alveolar approximant if I'm remembering correctly. (Edit: It's actually called a voiced alveolar fricative)
Yes, the video implies corruption on Lula by showing that he was arrested, but the fact that the process and the trial was staged and prosecution was following the judge's orders, it not mentioned. On top of it, the judge became Justice minister of Bolsonaro's presidency. The story of the judge deserves a video on itself.
Vox makes videos that are easy to digest by not going really in depth on the subject at hand. Thankfully the Car Wash operation and its aftermath were widely covered at the time by international news, so I’m aware that a few important details were left out (Dilma wasn’t actually implicated in bribes, the Congress applied a chokehold to her government, the party with the highest amount of members involved in the so-called Petrolao was the PP, which was ironically Bolsonaro’s previous party, etc). 9 minutes is not enough to understand the Brazilian saga of 2002-2022, so I didn’t expect a full coverage, but for the uninformed viewer, this could affect its understanding of the whole story, yes.
Worth mentioning that the minister of the Supreme Court who cancelled lula’s long list of crimes was appointed by Lula himself! As for former judge Moro having become a minister of Justice in Bolsonaro’s team is very normal! Poor narrative of losers!
yes, Vox seems to imply it Dilma Rouseff "fell" because she was caught in a corruption scandal. wrong. Dilma is the most goody two-shoes politician to a fault, one of the reasons she was hated in congress, she wouldn't "play ball". she was coup'ed in an Impeachment for manipulating the appearance of the budget, an election-time maneuver use by all recent brazilian presidents before her AND after her. the documentary "The Edge of Democracy" by Petra Costa is beautiful and follows this process well.
@@bartomalatesta5652 She was removed because in 2014 the people took the streets protesting for her impeachment. It wasn`t a coup because that is what the people protested for. All the government did was give the people what they wanted.
Indeed, Dilma was impeached because she didn't bend to what we call "centrão" (or the big centre... a bunch of smaller, very corrupt political parties that sway accordingly with the party in power). Even her vice-president (a participant in the "centrão" himself) actually had a part in the coup d'etat against her.
No Brasil temos 3 poderes. Um deles o Judiciário em específico o STF onde é a corte máxima, soltaram ele passando por cima da constituição. Curiosidade: quem em espefico soltou ele foi quem o próprio Lula indicou na época do seu mandato a vaga na cadeira do STF. Estamos começando a passar problemas de censura.
Bolsa Família was not a new program. Lula created just the new name. The program was created by the former president Fernando Henrique Cardoso, and it was called Bolsa Escola.
The fact that this video does not highlight what actually happened with Lula's prosecution and the bogus nature of the charges is really pretty terrible.
A correction: Rouseff was never included in the corruption from Petrobras (The oil state company) as said on the video (not my opinion, you can search for all juridical sources). Her economic plan was not good and trying to reduce the corruption mainly from the center/right parties, she creates issues with the parliament that, with the wealthy people, forced her government to an end. The police operation that has found that massive corruption was dried after she left the power, as an extra evidence of what really happened.
Dilma was on the of the board of directors of Petrobras 2003-2010, right when Lavajato picked up steam in 2004. Dilma was very close to Dirceu during the time of Mensalao. Dilma was chair of the board at Petrobras at the height of Mensalao and when the dutch contractor SBM was found to be paying bribes to Petrobras personnel and to her Workers Party.
@@Formed123 all of that is circumstantial and no actual evidence of corruption was ever brought up against dilma which is evident in the fact that they werent able to take away her electability after her controversial impeachment
You forgot to mention US’s involvement in Bolsonaro’s election. He had the same campaign manager as Trump. And let’s not forget US’s role in dissolving BRIC, as this coalition was successful and very competitive in the global economy.
As well as the White House using NSA, CIA, FBI since 2013 to help brazilian right wing to overthrow the former president Dilma Roussef with a coup (and also spy Brazil state oil company Petrobras) jointly with brazilian Federal Prosecutor to perform lawfare against Lula and his party preventing him to run for presidency in 2018

It's actually not the hard, I live in The Netherlands and there was a lot of coverage on the news on the election day and the following.

@@larl07 , Perhaps you should have said: "I don't think this audience wants to see a far-right-winger as a criminal. Or not 🤔 This audience does want to see a far-right-winger in jail. 🤭
@@sudi_cloud nah i meant that this video is not about how Lula is a criminal. That's why Moro is not mentioned, this audience is one which tends to want to root for the left winger, regardless of the ~18 billion returned from his corruption schemes.
@@larl07 to accuse someone of a crime you need proof beyond a PowerPoint presentation. To say "alleged" corruption and leave it at that without mentioning Sergio Moro does not tell the whole story.

Not true, COVID retracted the economy in 4.7% as 2014 crisis causes a retraction of 3.5%. Brazil got out of the list of 10 biggest economies in the beggining of 2021
They also acted like the recession reason was because of the commoditys price fall, in reality it was the fact that in Lula goverment he suported many polices, specially ignoring the budget celling. Their police kept themself working because of the comodity surplus but it was a ticking time bomb and they just ignored it. The anoying part is that since it happened after Lula goverment, in his debates he just throws is positives numbers since the negatives came after, and even looking at the growth during his time, if you compare it with the region (South America) and countrys in a similiar economic situation ( emergent economus - BRICKS) youll see his economic group was just staying on track. This also includes poverty assistence sonce there was a global tendency of lesser poverty in that time

Dear Vox, Can you make a video like this on how Sri Lanka was bankrupted. Actually my country had a long history of corruption, abuse and embezzlement but a one political family called Rajapaksa regime intensified all those bad things and now we experienced a massive and severe decline in everything. So please focus on this matter as well.
@@tinaandro1178 Vox story telling is unique and creative. And also it has a larger audience. In that sense, we can permeate awareness of our country's situation.
I currently live in Brazil and it's been a year. I just want to say a big thank you for explaining this whole election in the simplest way ever. I am so grateful. Now i can add to my research and educate my subscribers. Thank you
While this is a good starting point for understanding Brazil's political situation, I would recommend doing further research on some of the topics that were only lightly touched on, particularly Lula's arrest and Dilma's impeachment. Both are much more complex than the video makes them seem. I would recommend the Oscar-nominated documentary Edge of Democracy on Netflix to understand the political climate during Dilma's impeachment trial. It's from the POV of someone who was against her impeachment (as a great many Brazilians were) but it covers the issues many of us had with the way this trial was conducted, as well as showing the side of this period that much of the foreign press pays little attention to.
@@cyberpunkqueen1525 Many were against? lol Oh yes because we, Brazilians, were so happy about the worst economic crisis in the history of our country under Dilma. I really miss those times.
@@ridethelighting83 The Intercept found irrefutable proof that Moro, the judge that convicted Lula and was later appointed as a Minister by Bolsonaro himself, was instructing prosecutors to find whatever way possible to frame Lula. No material evidence was ever found to prove Lula's personal involvement with any corruption scandal. Eventually, his convictions were overturned due to lack of evidence and illegal practices by judge Moro during the trials.
@@ridethelighting83 Basically, leaked Telegram chats between the judge (Sergio Moro, who later became Bolsonaro's Minister of Justice) and the attorneys that convicted Lula showed that it was not a fair judgement, and the intention was to get him arrested all the time, no matter if the evidence was inconclusive.
@@zvlfn @waterbonkie is right. The letter J in portuguese always has the same sound as "conclusion", "pleasure", "unusual" (/ʒ/ phoneme). Examples: "José Alencar", "Lava-jato" (Car Wash Operation), "janela" (window), "jogo" (game), "coruja" (owl). It's a bit hard for us brazillians because we don't have the J sound in portuguese - like in "jazz", "job", "age", "edge" or "general" (/dʒ/ phoneme), so when we say "Jackson" it's common to use /ʒ/ phoneme instead of the /dʒ/ phoneme, because it's a new sound for us.
@@thon6760 we do have the dzh sound. Especially in words such as "Jonathan" (sometimes spelled Diônatan), or any other words with "di" in many dialects. Edit: also in borrowed words such as the ones you've listed. It's already a pretty common sound in our pronunciation of "jazz" and "job"
@@readisgooddewaterkant7890 "thejuicemedia" covered the current Government pretty well. "The edge of democracy" is a documentary about the Dilma situation that was nominated for the Oscar
yeah because the J is very different in the languages they know, spanish speak like "Hosé", sometimes "Yosé", and english speak with a "d" sound at the beginning. I think the better way to teach some english speaker to pronounce it correctly is to tell them to speak Joseph, but without the D sound and the "ph", and entone the "e"
@@paulimriss You can also go after words that do the portuguese "j" sound in English, like Fusion (the s) or vision (again, the s) or seizure (the z) edit: or tell them it's the french "j", that would work too, if they know some french
Yeah, I wouldn't expect a English language vehicle to pick up on the nuances about the matter. Like how the reason to why the process that led to Lula's prison was judged by someone that later admitted to have a personal vendetta against Lula and actually served as Justice Minister for Bolsonaro. This man was Sérgio Moro, who late on Bolsonaro's time in charge left the government claiming he did everything Bolsonaro asked him so he could protect Bolsonaro's criminal sons, but also supported Bolsonaro in his campaign and got elected as senator. Another fun fact: Sérgio Moro had meetings with the CIA and United Started Defense department. Private meetings. As a member of Brazilian government. After leaving Bolsonaro's government, he went on to work in companies that had their entire business around rescuing the Brazilian companies Sérgio Moro helped to destroy. Pretty convenient, right? Anyone can check this up online. Another massive mistake here is to say that Dilma herself was involved in any corruption scheme around Petrobras or, even worse, that was the reason she got taken out from office. She wasn't and her impeachment was a literal coup, where she got accused of practices Bolsonaro and many others would do before and after her and never got the same judgment. Also, another tip to the fraudulent backbone of it all: one of the legal consequences of a impeachment in Brazil is the loss of political rights, but Dilma didn't lost hers, in a unbelievable demonstration that they just needed her out, not necessarily being concerned about the law.
Funny you only talk about Sergio Moro (who later was running against Bolsonaro) but forget to mention the other 9 judges who not only condemned Lula, but INCREASED his imprisonment period after Sergio Moro
@@VitorHugoP Moro's never run against Bolsonaro. He was actually with Bolsonaro Team in the the 2nd round, even though he pointed that Bolsonaro was making efforts for obstruction of justice. It doesn't matter that Lula was convicted of corruption by the the Court. The process itself was null for 2 fundamental reasons: it shouldn't be prosecuted in Paraná and because Moro was promised a chair in the Supreme Court, so he worked with the prosecuters to make Lula go to jail and Bolsonaro could win the 2018 election.
Anos de política resumidos em 10 minutos deixam o vídeo faltando MUITOS pedaços fundamentais, tanto pra defender/acusar o Lula quanto pra evidenciar problemas do Bolsonaro. Porém concordo q tá raso demais
why did you put this woman pronouncing the names as if they were in spanish?? we don't speak spanish, it's not "hosé", it's "JHOsé", if you're gonna go the extra mile to try and sound respectful at least go all the way, jesus
The video is not for us, it's for then. We spell anime wrong? No, it just our definition of the word here in Brazil and the others country have their own definition and spelling
I don't get why English-speakers pronounce José (when the name is, clearly, supposed to be in Portuguese) as they do in Spanish. Just pronounce the 'J' as you would in the name James or Joseph.
It's a common mistake that they assume J in Portuguese is pronounced the same as it is in Spanish. And actually, it's pronounce like zh rather than English J.
Or, rather, pronounce it the correct way (phoneme /ʒ/, think the French J). But yeah, between mistakenly pronouncing it like in Spanish and doing it in English, the latter is the better. There's already enough people that think we just speak Spanish like everybody else in the region.
It's not English speakers so much as US Americans... British commonly prounce the hard J because they are either lazy/uncultured or due to their closer ties to Portugal where they have a hundred years old alliance, whereas Americans are very closely tied to Latin America in trade and culture and a large minority speaks Spanish fluently.
As a brazilian i can talk Lula was acused of being involved in numerous corruption scandals (more than 50). he was released from jail because the STF (as a supreme Court in the US) didn't judge him because he had more than 70 years old, and also because the STF changed its interpretation of improsenment during the second instancy.

I'm Brazilian, and I can say, not fearing to be wrong that I neither support nor vote on Lula. He was arrested due to corruption, condemned in all 3 instances of the Brazilian judiciary. He shouldn't be allowed to be electable. Plus, he defend more power to State, in terms of economy. He is against privatization. Basically, for him, everything should be ruled and monitored by the government, even midia. That's why I never supported and will never support him.
Bolsonaro never ever tried any move against the media and the brazilian supreme court is basically favoring candidates in election, its just so bizarre... You might think that i'm some sort of radical, but let me tell you something: After the election a supreme court judge( the one who judged the election rules) went to a party with Lula and his lawyer to dance samba, can you believe this? its just so ridiculous... The same judge that New York Times said it was crossing the line...
probaly a trend in later stage developing countries & regarding bolsonaro particularly because far-right ressurgences are a common phenomenon in a left-leaning government's crisis
Good video, but you guys really took a side there. It would be better mentioning the whole 230 billion reais cut off from the healthcare investments, the Petrolão and Mensalão. I hope Brazil will see the truth, and reelect our great president.
Brazillians were blissful when Lula was arrested. We had hope that widespread impunity for politicians was finally coming to an end, after we manged to arrest a former president. But that joy was short-lived, when a supreme court judge apointed by Lula nulified his conviction.
Small correction: Brazilian J is not pronounced like Spanish. For "José", think Zhozé, not Hozé. This is just an approximation due to the different phonetic inventories, but it's J as the S in "measure" or the Z in "seizure" (the same as French J), the O is closed as in "potencial", the S is pronounced like a Z, and the É is open somewhat like the A in "at". The more precise description is [ʒo.'zɛ], but many Brazilians reduce the first vowel to [u] or [ʊ] because it's unstressed, so many natives, including me, will actually say [ʒu.'zɛ]. Also, for the surname "Alencar", there are two R sounds in Brazilian Portuguese, /ɾ/ (alveolar tap, like T in "better" or "water" in some dialects) and /x/ (voiceless velar fricative, like Scottish "loch"), this one is the tap. In standard Brazilian Portuguese, the R is never like in English "red" or "rose".
This video is very poor made. And it is skewed!! Im Brazillian, and it is really sad whats happening here. And what is really concerning is that most part of the media, local media and international media, is contributing to to the loss of freedom of the brazillian people.

All in all, Bolsonaro used everything in his power to win the election, and still lost. Ouch!
This video is an embarrassment for all Brazilian people. Me as a Brazilian, can relate to that. Lula is a dangerous man… he was actually judged, condemned and ARRESTED for corruption with all kinds of proofs. This video is nothing but a bunch os lies!
Please share with us in which pages of the legal process are the PROOFS against Lula. The then judge Sergio Moro never showed any proof of his accusations, let’s see if you are luckier than the judge and the prosecution.
Correction: brazil did not grow because of Lula, but in spite of him, because of the commodities boom (which he took little advantage of). With that he made assistance measures, just look at Dilma. As you said, as soon as the sale of commodities decreased, that chaos of her government came.

Glenn Greenwald deserves a huge shout out for documenting how Lula’s prosecution was corrupt, ultimately leading to his being freed. Lula would not have won, but for Glenn Greenwald’s tireless journalism.
Good video, but It would be better if it had clarified that: "The STF did not acquit the defendant Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. He did not deal with the merit of the conviction. It was not stated at any time that the defendant is innocent, but it was considered that it was not up to the Federal Court of Paraná to judge him in those specific cases," says Gamboa in the petition that insists that Lula and his companies, targets of Lava-Jato, settle accounts with the Treasury. He isn't considered innocent, that's one of the reasons why the current election is so problematic. Lula is not the "less worse" guy. The video gave the idea he was considered innocent, which is not the case. He was charged in almost all the accusations in Parana, but since the judgment was transported to Brasilia, the case has been restarted and declared void because the evidence produced and the processes were considered compromised, hence the annulment of them by the Supreme Court. For this reason, it is not technically correct to say that Lula was acquitted or acquitted in these specific cases, since there was no valid trial.
@@mattcrvg Which means they couldn't prove officially his innocence nor guilt. He was actually being considered guilty in most of them, but since all the cases had to move to the jurisdiction no another state, it was considered that the whole investigation would need to be completely restarted and by then, the material would be already too "contaminated". He's NOT innocent. In reality it's like he didn't even respond to those crimes, since they weren't finished investigated. He is just not considered guilty by justice, because he wasn't even judged by that. The investigation hadn't been complete. And to consider him more inclined to be guilty comes to the fact money was found. An amound of money he wouldn't have if it wasn't from corruption. He wasn't accused of just one case of corruption, he went to jail for some of them, the reason why he couldn't run for the election of 2018. What happened is that the rest of the cases he was being accused couldn't be completely investigated. But he is NOT innocent.
@@nahrampasso2261 Spare the mental gymnastics, there’s a universal principle called presumption of innocence. Lula may have not received an acquittal veredict but he returned to his innocent status merely by not being proven guilty, as any other citizen would be.
@@K4lamazu I know that. But would you have the trust to elect someone who was considered "innocent" for not being investigated properly in these conditions to be the president of your country? Why not elect other? And when I say other I'm not even talking about Bolsonaro, any other.
If you’re going to make a video about politics in other countries, the least you could do is to research a little more than in the traditional media outlets. The media in Brazil is heavily oriented towards the left wing, and it explains why there are so many major points that are missing from your essay. This video makes Lula appear honest. He is a thief, he is corrupt, and he wants to regulate all the media that does not agree with him. There’s a lot more to this story than what you’re showing.
This video is fundamentaly flawed. Not mentioning that Lula’s trial was a political one, built upon false accusations to prevent him from running a campaign in the 2018 elections, one that he could easily win, was really disapointing coming from VOX (to say the least). Another thing is that the judge who sent Lula to prison, after being successful, came to be Bolsonaro’s minister of justice, loking for winning a seat in the supreme court, which had to be appointed by the president, i.e. Bolsonaro (Long story short: he was not and later accused Bolsonaro of corruption. Now they are friends again 😪).Years later the supreme court of Brazil and even The UN ruled against the trial and released Lula from prison, recognizing that it was a political trial.
@@fgsaramago No court ever said is was true. Where is the judge who made all the trials? Oh, he is Bolsonaro adviser now and showed his face at Globo as well at hir righ side.
Basically what happened is that some judges who were in Bolsonaro’s favour condemned him in a unconstitutional way, that’s why it got annulled after the fact, they didn’t follow standard procedure. As a Brazilian it’s pretty obvious Lula is corrupt, but so is Bolsonaro, however his supporters also tend to illude themselves into thinking their messiah isn’t also a thief like all politicians.
The judge that tried him curiously also was the Minister of Justice for Bolsonaro. The trial was eventually reviewed by the Supreme Court and found to have been unconstitutional exactly because of mr. Moro's actions. Now, none of this negates that corruption happened during his government, nor that he was certainly involved in the corruption schemes back then, but, as far as this election went, his corruption was a moot point, given that Bolsonaro also is tremendously corrupt.
well, Vox forgot to say that Lula was never considered innocent... and talking about democracy have you guys heard about TSE censorship here in Brazil?
1:25 vs 6:47 // funny how vox explains how Lula cam from the 'left' whilst, on the same graph-scale, she uses the term 'far right' when introducing Bolsonaro. These are micro-strategies the media uses to smear its opposite. Nowadays most people realise these tactics, but I'm sure a lot of people didn't even notice this detail.
Vox is just as the uol: don't trust in it. I know this channel since 2020 and boy: it's dishonest and pretty left wing and will use any dishonest statistics and etc.
Mas não é meio que verdade? Se lula fosse um candidato de extrema esquerda, ele não dialogaria com figuras de direita como Alckmin ou liberais como a tebet.

american media always "forgetting" to point out that the judge that emprisioned Lula was later working in bolsonaro's government
Conveniently forgeting the US government put money on in too
Yes, the video implies corruption on Lula by showing that he was arrested, but the fact that the process and the trial was staged and prosecution was following the judge's orders, it not mentioned. On top of it, the judge became Justice minister of Bolsonaro's presidency.
The story of the judge deserves a video on itself.
Vox makes videos that are easy to digest by not going really in depth on the subject at hand. Thankfully the Car Wash operation and its aftermath were widely covered at the time by international news, so I’m aware that a few important details were left out (Dilma wasn’t actually implicated in bribes, the Congress applied a chokehold to her government, the party with the highest amount of members involved in the so-called Petrolao was the PP, which was ironically Bolsonaro’s previous party, etc). 9 minutes is not enough to understand the Brazilian saga of 2002-2022, so I didn’t expect a full coverage, but for the uninformed viewer, this could affect its understanding of the whole story, yes.
still doesn't change the fact that Lula is corrupt man
Worth mentioning that the minister of the Supreme Court who cancelled lula’s long list of crimes was appointed by Lula himself! As for former judge Moro having become a minister of Justice in Bolsonaro’s team is very normal! Poor narrative of losers!

Exactly, Dilma was never charged with anything regarding corruption. She was removed due to a palamentary coup.
yes, Vox seems to imply it Dilma Rouseff "fell" because she was caught in a corruption scandal. wrong.
Dilma is the most goody two-shoes politician to a fault, one of the reasons she was hated in congress, she wouldn't "play ball".
she was coup'ed in an Impeachment for manipulating the appearance of the budget, an election-time maneuver use by all recent brazilian presidents before her AND after her.

@@bartomalatesta5652 She was removed because in 2014 the people took the streets protesting for her impeachment. It wasn`t a coup because that is what the people protested for. All the government did was give the people what they wanted.

Indeed, Dilma was impeached because she didn't bend to what we call "centrão" (or the big centre... a bunch of smaller, very corrupt political parties that sway accordingly with the party in power). Even her vice-president (a participant in the "centrão" himself) actually had a part in the coup d'etat against her.

Very well observed.
A correction: Rouseff was never included in the corruption from Petrobras (The oil state company) as said on the video (not my opinion, you can search for all juridical sources). Her economic plan was not good and trying to reduce the corruption mainly from the center/right parties, she creates issues with the parliament that, with the wealthy people, forced her government to an end. The police operation that has found that massive corruption was dried after she left the power, as an extra evidence of what really happened.

While this is a good starting point for understanding Brazil's political situation, I would recommend doing further research on some of the topics that were only lightly touched on, particularly Lula's arrest and Dilma's impeachment. Both are much more complex than the video makes them seem. I would recommend the Oscar-nominated documentary Edge of Democracy on Netflix to understand the political climate during Dilma's impeachment trial. It's from the POV of someone who was against her impeachment (as a great many Brazilians were) but it covers the issues many of us had with the way this trial was conducted, as well as showing the side of this period that much of the foreign press pays little attention to.

So, they show as if Lula was a super clean opposition to Bolsonaro, which is clearly a lie, he is corrupt.
Please explain
@@ridethelighting83 The Intercept found irrefutable proof that Moro, the judge that convicted Lula and was later appointed as a Minister by Bolsonaro himself, was instructing prosecutors to find whatever way possible to frame Lula. No material evidence was ever found to prove Lula's personal involvement with any corruption scandal. Eventually, his convictions were overturned due to lack of evidence and illegal practices by judge Moro during the trials.
@@ridethelighting83 Basically, leaked Telegram chats between the judge (Sergio Moro, who later became Bolsonaro's Minister of Justice) and the attorneys that convicted Lula showed that it was not a fair judgement, and the intention was to get him arrested all the time, no matter if the evidence was inconclusive.

Thanks for your video. Small correction: in portuguese "j" is pronounced more like in english than in spanish. José Alencar
I don't know which one to pick, It pronounce H Hose Alencar or Y Yose Alencar
@@zvlfn none of them actually hahaha, It's more like J in words like joker or jackson
@@zvlfn @waterbonkie is right. The letter J in portuguese always has the same sound as "conclusion", "pleasure", "unusual" (/ʒ/ phoneme).
Examples: "José Alencar", "Lava-jato" (Car Wash Operation), "janela" (window), "jogo" (game), "coruja" (owl).
It's a bit hard for us brazillians because we don't have the J sound in portuguese - like in "jazz", "job", "age", "edge" or "general" (/dʒ/ phoneme), so when we say "Jackson" it's common to use /ʒ/ phoneme instead of the /dʒ/ phoneme, because it's a new sound for us.

no
just no , bolsominiooon
Unfortunately i dont think foreigners really care
Yeah, I wouldn't expect a English language vehicle to pick up on the nuances about the matter. Like how the reason to why the process that led to Lula's prison was judged by someone that later admitted to have a personal vendetta against Lula and actually served as Justice Minister for Bolsonaro. This man was Sérgio Moro, who late on Bolsonaro's time in charge left the government claiming he did everything Bolsonaro asked him so he could protect Bolsonaro's criminal sons, but also supported Bolsonaro in his campaign and got elected as senator.
Another fun fact: Sérgio Moro had meetings with the CIA and United Started Defense department. Private meetings. As a member of Brazilian government. After leaving Bolsonaro's government, he went on to work in companies that had their entire business around rescuing the Brazilian companies Sérgio Moro helped to destroy. Pretty convenient, right?
Anyone can check this up online.
Another massive mistake here is to say that Dilma herself was involved in any corruption scheme around Petrobras or, even worse, that was the reason she got taken out from office. She wasn't and her impeachment was a literal coup, where she got accused of practices Bolsonaro and many others would do before and after her and never got the same judgment. Also, another tip to the fraudulent backbone of it all: one of the legal consequences of a impeachment in Brazil is the loss of political rights, but Dilma didn't lost hers, in a unbelievable demonstration that they just needed her out, not necessarily being concerned about the law.
Funny you only talk about Sergio Moro (who later was running against Bolsonaro) but forget to mention the other 9 judges who not only condemned Lula, but INCREASED his imprisonment period after Sergio Moro
@@VitorHugoP Moro's never run against Bolsonaro. He was actually with Bolsonaro Team in the the 2nd round, even though he pointed that Bolsonaro was making efforts for obstruction of justice. It doesn't matter that Lula was convicted of corruption by the the Court. The process itself was null for 2 fundamental reasons: it shouldn't be prosecuted in Paraná and because Moro was promised a chair in the Supreme Court, so he worked with the prosecuters to make Lula go to jail and Bolsonaro could win the 2018 election.

We spell anime wrong? No, it just our definition of the word here in Brazil and the others country have their own definition and spelling
I don't get why English-speakers pronounce José (when the name is, clearly, supposed to be in Portuguese) as they do in Spanish. Just pronounce the 'J' as you would in the name James or Joseph.
It's a common mistake that they assume J in Portuguese is pronounced the same as it is in Spanish.
And actually, it's pronounce like zh rather than English J.
Or, rather, pronounce it the correct way (phoneme /ʒ/, think the French J).
But yeah, between mistakenly pronouncing it like in Spanish and doing it in English, the latter is the better. There's already enough people that think we just speak Spanish like everybody else in the region.
@@giannixx it'd be close enough and, more importantly, not sound Spanish.

Small correction: Brazilian J is not pronounced like Spanish. For "José", think Zhozé, not Hozé.
This is just an approximation due to the different phonetic inventories, but it's J as the S in "measure" or the Z in "seizure" (the same as French J), the O is closed as in "potencial", the S is pronounced like a Z, and the É is open somewhat like the A in "at".
The more precise description is [ʒo.'zɛ], but many Brazilians reduce the first vowel to [u] or [ʊ] because it's unstressed, so many natives, including me, will actually say [ʒu.'zɛ].
Also, for the surname "Alencar", there are two R sounds in Brazilian Portuguese, /ɾ/ (alveolar tap, like T in "better" or "water" in some dialects) and /x/ (voiceless velar fricative, like Scottish "loch"), this one is the tap.

Agree, thank U. Brazil will never become a well function society, compared to US. Our politician only cares about themselves and their people, inequality it's un rise not just between people of difference background but also on greedy political view for the middel-class's and upper class and etc...

Its been hard to be brazilian these days...
I am Brazilian, it's true
@@laurojr.7240 I support Lula Because I know that he has more honor in him than bolsanoro So if you have any Brazilian friends please encourage them to vote for Lula because the deforestation you’re experiencing just can’t continue it needs to stop And in case you’re wondering why deforestation served under his presidency
Not just Brazil, it's happening all over the world.
@@jamessparkman6604 The only bad thing about Lula was that he stole billions, apart from the robbery he did a lot of good things, especially for the poor public.
@@FelipeSilva-zr6wd Haven’t you ever heard of redemption
The whole world was affected by Covid. Bolsonaro's government provided 600 BRL per month of support for poor people, it enable the country to reduce its poverty index. The violence in Brazil decreased by more than 20% in the right-wing government. They also finished building a bridge to take water to the Northeast - a work that PT's government hadn't finished.
Amazing video and very interesting, as a Brazilian I'm grateful to see content about our country.
WILL BE THE CHOOSE ONE NOT BY THE THE BRAZILIAN PEOPLE ,,,, BUT BY THE TSE/STF=BRAZILIAN SUPREME COURT ON LULA' SIDE!!!!!

Glenn Greenwald deserves a huge shout out for documenting how Lula’s prosecution was corrupt, ultimately leading to his being freed. Lula would not have won, but for Glenn Greenwald’s tireless journalism.
Would u praise Glenn also for his saying about Alexandre de Moraes hunting on conserrvatives here in Brazil?

Good video, but It would be better if it had clarified that: "The STF did not acquit the defendant Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. He did not deal with the merit of the conviction. It was not stated at any time that the defendant is innocent, but it was considered that it was not up to the Federal Court of Paraná to judge him in those specific cases," says Gamboa in the petition that insists that Lula and his companies, targets of Lava-Jato, settle accounts with the Treasury. He isn't considered innocent, that's one of the reasons why the current election is so problematic. Lula is not the "less worse" guy. The video gave the idea he was considered innocent, which is not the case. He was charged in almost all the accusations in Parana, but since the judgment was transported to Brasilia, the case has been restarted and declared void because the evidence produced and the processes were considered compromised, hence the annulment of them by the Supreme Court. For this reason, it is not technically correct to say that Lula was acquitted or acquitted in these specific cases, since there was no valid trial.
Cases declared void, processes considered compromised...which means he is innocent.
@@mattcrvg Which means they couldn't prove officially his innocence nor guilt. He was actually being considered guilty in most of them, but since all the cases had to move to the jurisdiction no another state, it was considered that the whole investigation would need to be completely restarted and by then, the material would be already too "contaminated". He's NOT innocent. In reality it's like he didn't even respond to those crimes, since they weren't finished investigated. He is just not considered guilty by justice, because he wasn't even judged by that. The investigation hadn't been complete. And to consider him more inclined to be guilty comes to the fact money was found. An amound of money he wouldn't have if it wasn't from corruption. He wasn't accused of just one case of corruption, he went to jail for some of them, the reason why he couldn't run for the election of 2018. What happened is that the rest of the cases he was being accused couldn't be completely investigated. But he is NOT innocent.
@@nahrampasso2261 Innocent until proven guilty. If the cases where he was considered guilty were void, he is innocent. Simple as that.
@@nahrampasso2261 Spare the mental gymnastics, there’s a universal principle called presumption of innocence. Lula may have not received an acquittal veredict but he returned to his innocent status merely by not being proven guilty, as any other citizen would be.
@@K4lamazu I know that. But would you have the trust to elect someone who was considered "innocent" for not being investigated properly in these conditions to be the president of your country? Why not elect other? And when I say other I'm not even talking about Bolsonaro, any other.
If you’re going to make a video about politics in other countries, the least you could do is to research a little more than in the traditional media outlets. The media in Brazil is heavily oriented towards the left wing, and it explains why there are so many major points that are missing from your essay. This video makes Lula appear honest. He is a thief, he is corrupt, and he wants to regulate all the media that does not agree with him. There’s a lot more to this story than what you’re showing.
Fun fact: The Bolsa Família program gave not the families all this money, it was a pretty low ammount, actually.
Thank you for keeping us informed of the news from around the world. Keep it going!
Misinformed*
they got a lot of things wrong, though
Horrible information, PT is highly corrupt, and dangerous to Brazilian democracy, Bolsonaro wasn’t as bad as everyone said, he did a good job overall
they got A LOT wrong tbh
They are telling you lies
This video does not translate the reality. Search another one
Strange how Vox said that Bolsonaro's popularity never exceeded 40% but his demonstrations in the Paulista avenue exceeded 1 million people
That's less than 1% of registered voters in brazil.
What about “Vazajato”!? A super important milestone in this timeline.
They simply rolled back the court case, he was not absolved of anything,
exactly
Scroll down for brazilians who started voting this year trying to - either condem or praise Lula - even though their political education is zero.
True that lol
This video is fundamentaly flawed. Not mentioning that Lula’s trial was a political one, built upon false accusations to prevent him from running a campaign in the 2018 elections, one that he could easily win, was really disapointing coming from VOX (to say the least). Another thing is that the judge who sent Lula to prison, after being successful, came to be Bolsonaro’s minister of justice, loking for winning a seat in the supreme court, which had to be appointed by the president, i.e. Bolsonaro (Long story short: he was not and later accused Bolsonaro of corruption. Now they are friends again 😪).Years later the supreme court of Brazil and even The UN ruled against the trial and released Lula from prison, recognizing that it was a political trial.
@@MarcosPaulo-xs5em Cuida, faz teu nome.
How do you know the accusations are false? No court ever ruled on that!
@@fgsaramago No court ever said is was true. Where is the judge who made all the trials? Oh, he is Bolsonaro adviser now and showed his face at Globo as well at hir righ side.

"Oh, by the way, Lulu was sent to prison in 2017." Well that suddenly took a turn...
“Paid a turn”, I would say.
Yea it's called political prison when it's without any prove.
Basically what happened is that some judges who were in Bolsonaro’s favour condemned him in a unconstitutional way, that’s why it got annulled after the fact, they didn’t follow standard procedure. As a Brazilian it’s pretty obvious Lula is corrupt, but so is Bolsonaro, however his supporters also tend to illude themselves into thinking their messiah isn’t also a thief like all politicians.
The judge that tried him curiously also was the Minister of Justice for Bolsonaro. The trial was eventually reviewed by the Supreme Court and found to have been unconstitutional exactly because of mr. Moro's actions. Now, none of this negates that corruption happened during his government, nor that he was certainly involved in the corruption schemes back then, but, as far as this election went, his corruption was a moot point, given that Bolsonaro also is tremendously corrupt.

Former president Dilma was never implicated in the Petrobras scandal... But, yes, her popularity sunk even more because of it.
well, Vox forgot to say that Lula was never considered innocent... and talking about democracy have you guys heard about TSE censorship here in Brazil?
Great video. Just one thing: José in portuguese is spelled ‘jay’ not ‘rose’ like in spanish

1:25 vs 6:47 // funny how vox explains how Lula cam from the 'left' whilst, on the same graph-scale, she uses the term 'far right' when introducing Bolsonaro.
These are micro-strategies the media uses to smear its opposite.
Nowadays most people realise these tactics, but I'm sure a lot of people didn't even notice this detail.
1:25 vs 6:47 if you want to check it out.
Vox is just as the uol: don't trust in it. I know this channel since 2020 and boy: it's dishonest and pretty left wing and will use any dishonest statistics and etc.
Mas não é meio que verdade? Se lula fosse um candidato de extrema esquerda, ele não dialogaria com figuras de direita como Alckmin ou liberais como a tebet. Ja Bolsonaro simplesmente não dialoga com a esquerda, e agora nem mesmo com candidatos de centro-direita. Fora a semelhança de sua filosofia com outros governos de extrema direita.
By summarizing our politics this video mistakenly leads people to believe Dilma was impeached by corruption, when she was not.
It was by absolute incompetence.
Why not say the truth?
The Republic of Brazil is doomed to failure. I think that the words of the writer Erça de Queiroz will one day come true. "Brazil is Empire, it will be Republic and then it will be Empire again."
Deus te ouça! Já deu essa republiqueta nojenta...
You pronounced José Alencar wrong. It's not spanish, it's portugueses. Pay attention next time!
So many people saying moro is a friend of bolsonaro, while Moro tried to make bolsonaro go to prision as well, but not succeding lol
What? Definetely no! Just to remember, they were TOGETHER in two of the last debates and Moro has even answered a question replacing Bolsonaro after he abandoned an interview.
oh meu filho, não dava p ser um pouquinho menos desonesto não? moro tava com bolsonaro p cima e p baixo nesses ultimos dias de campanha. dá uma segurada
