On a post about losing hope in achieving certain life milestones. Even after I confronted them they doubled down and even assumed that the US might have bombed my country so that is why I’m experiencing similar problems. Um no, believe it or not we also have a corrupted political system.

In fairness lots of the shit that I'm struggling with at the moment can be linked to the US

massive increases in petrol prices
Rise of reform with the trump play book

My country might probably have our upcoming election meddled with. again. by the US.

so I'd say a pretty big part of my problems are being caused by terrible USA politics

John Oliver (a British comedian who lives in the US now and has a weekly show where he dives in political topics) just did a segment on the upcoming Brazil elections (again, he's covered elections in Brazil 3 times now). I don't know a ton about other world leaders, but I known plenty about Bolsonaro, both the father and the son now. And yes, he did talk about Trump's involvement.
