Beatrice Rosen wrote that she felt "globalism" had entered a new phase and that France, which she considered a key country, had often initiated social changes that were later observed elsewhere. According to her, the situation was being allowed to deteriorate by actors who fueled chaos, while well-meaning individuals were exposed on the ground. She believed that a phase of stunned awareness among the population, comparable to that during the health crisis, seemed to be at work and asserted that "it will not leave." She also suggested that events could be coordinated and that some would seek to add an entry into war to the national chaos. The eight-minute speech by "M", she wrote, would have had a purpose other than the interest of the citizens. Rosen clarified that this was her feeling and that she hoped to be wrong. She added that some actors might be participating covertly in this "activation" and that certain behaviors seemed to her to be explained by an advance from those she mentioned. #France #Globalisme #CriseSociétale (translated)

Truecaller questioned whether Brazilians would allow Donald Trump to influence the country's electoral system in defense of U.S. interests. It predicted that Trump would lose control of the House and Senate in November, would be unable to govern, and would leave office in two years. The author stated that China was economically more important to Brazil than the United States because it buys Brazilian products and can help during crises. He also mentioned that the United States had a trade surplus with Brazil and was a direct competitor to agribusiness and Embraer. Truecaller also said that Brazilians were being influenced by a nonsensical narrative and cited controversies involving the PL and the Bolsonaro family. It claimed that the president of the PL had been arrested in the mensalão scandal, that Flávio Bolsonaro campaigned for Eduardo Cunha, who was imprisoned in the Lava Jato operation, and that the scandals involving INSS and Banco Master had arisen and grown during the Bolsonaro administration. It also criticized Jair Bolsonaro for, according to it, catering to the Centrão by releasing funds from the rapporteur and the secret budget. Regarding Flávio Bolsonaro, Truecaller stated that he did not have a government plan, had changed his position on the 6x1 work schedule, and had promised to cut R$ 200 billion in basic services to solve the fiscal problem, although he only explained R$ 70 billion, an amount the author considered inflated. It added that Flávio had not explained his pricing policy for Petrobras. Finally, Truecaller argued that spending cuts would reduce consumption and GDP and worsen the primary deficit by decreasing revenue. It cited Greece, Argentina, Chile, and Peru as examples where, according to it, austerity policies had failed. #PolíticaBrasil #Eleições2022 #Manipulação (translated)
