Neighbors ask Brazil to help repatriate civilians from Israel

Governments around the world have organized repatriation flights from Israel in response to the recent conflict sparked by Hamas attacks on Israeli soil. 

Brazil and Argentina have already begun evacuating civilians. Chile and Paraguay have reportedly made formal requests to the Brazilian Foreign Affairs Ministry for assistance in rescuing their respective citizens still in danger abroad. 

As of Thursday morning, there had been no official response to the requests, but the Brazilian government told local press that neighboring countries’ requests for assistance “will be considered in light of the repatriation process of Brazilian nationals, which will be given priority.”

fuck rechazo y no soy facho all my homies hate amarillos por chile

When the voting here for a new constitution ended and the one that recognized the rights of the natives and lgbtq+ people lost, I remember discussing the whole situation at my friend's house with my whole friend group, and how this is all the aftermath of the dictatorship that the US implanted on us and stuff, and after a while I just had a realization and just said out loud "guys we're officially adults now, we're discussing politics at the table". They all groaned.

Colección de cabezas rancias en escabeche By MikeS #1

Me: *wakes up at 5:30am too hot* ok I'll just go back to sleep

Brain: hey I wonder how much a us dollar is in pounds at the moment?

Me: ...well now I HAVE to look this up

Chile is in a really important moment right now. After years of abuse, corruption and violence, this sunday, we have the opportunity to change the Pinochet Constitution.

Its a big thing for our country and i think is good people like Pedro Pascal is speaking up and rising awarenes BUT MAN IT MAKES ME SO SO SO MAD TO SEE HIS (non chilean) FANS PAYING ZERO ATTENTION TO THAT

ITS REALLY TONE DEAF TO COMMENT "DADDY" AND SHIT LIKE THAT IN THE TW AND IG POSTS HE JUST MADE ABOUT IT

I hope Biden kills himself and if not that I hope he kills every one of his liberal voters so I can stop hearing their vote blue no matter who cult chanting

La Vida Doble p.35

Set in the darkest years of the Pinochet dictatorship, La Vida Doble is the story of Lorena, a leftist militant who arrives at a merciless turning point when every choice she confronts is impossible. Captured by agents of the Chilean repression, withstanding brutal torture to save her comrades, she must now either forsake the allegiances of motherhood or betray the political ideals to which she is deeply committed. While it is a novel it was written by the director of Chile's Museum of Memory and Human Rights and so based on extensive interviews of the real experiences of women prisoners.

This short passage captures so many of the tactics of psychological warfare that the Junta used to adjust leftist women from their lives as revolutionaries to political prisoners to sexual slaves. Simple things like underwear became something women longed for. " I just want to wear underpants; I want to put on a bra, that’s what I want." As she says to her companera she would give anything for a Triumph bra. And Junta guards fully exploited women's lack of bras, and made crude insulting comments about their breasts. This 1974 ad for Triumph bras, gives some of its connotations as a Swiss luxury brand, and why the Junta might see it as a triumph that an ex-militant now longs for one. "I’ve told her how I feel about underwear, what I would give for a Triumph bra. She doesn’t care at all about that. As long as they don’t rape her again, she doesn’t care about anything. I want a bra. I feel so skinny . . . Who could buy me a bra?"

Most disturbing is the final lines about how "some women are forced to dance and they end up naked as showgirls, dancing and crying, naked as effigies of showgirls". It was the ultimate form of degradation to turn revolutionary enemies into dancing strippers for their Fascist worst enemies. In this circumstance where underwear became a precious commodity for women prisoners, for comfort and their basic feminine needs. Women became desperate for any bra and underpants at all, and so were willing to wear the sexy, skimpy stripper bra and tangas, the Junta guards mockingly provided. "They end up naked". They started off clothed, and it was the process of undressing, stripping like showgirls that Junta guards found so amusing on revolutionary women. Despite the macabre scene of women dancing and crying, the tears of traumatized victims won them no sympathy from guards. Turning once dangerous women into entertainment was their cruel way of showing off that they were no longer a threat to Pinochet.

The translator Megan McDowell, in an interview asked the author, about how in the Chilean context, Communism had a much more inspiring idealistic background than most North Americans are familiar with, and it is a tragic contrast with what these inspiring idealistic women were reduced to.

MMcD: A related question—in the U.S., words like “Socialism,” “Communism,” and “Revolution” have a different resonance than they do in Chile. Even for people on the left, “communism” is associated with experiences of dictatorship and repression, and doesn’t have romantic or idealistic associations that it does for Lorena, or that people in Chile are more aware of, even if they don’t share them; there is little history of socialist ideas or movements in the U.S. Is there anything in particular you think your North American readers should be aware of about Chile’s history as they read your book?

AF: Not much, really. Lorena makes things understood as they need to be understood; for example, what it means to her to belong to a radical revolutionary movement that tries to win a utopia through armed struggle, one that demands from her the complete sacrifice of her life. There have been so many movements like that, and there always will be. Whether the inspiration comes from Che Guevara, or the movement’s name is this or that, or whatever the specific content of the project for a new society, these are not essential matters. The willingness to sacrifice oneself for something that feels huge, almost impossible, is always a human possibility. The Islamic fundamentalists are painful reminders of this. Furthermore, the immediate enemy is brutal dictatorship. But the use of torture to get information out of terrorist groups is something that has happened in many countries, even in some democratic ones and not too long ago . . . I would like for the novel to show, in contrast to the film Zero Dark Thirty, the victim’s perspective, the way his or her identity as a person is gradually torn to shreds.

I don't really have many mutuals here nor many followers I think, so I don't know how many people this will reach, but worth the shot.

Yesterday, here in Chile, the 2022 Chilean national plebiscite was held to accept or refuse the new constitution. The old constitution was written during a dictatorship and it's the reason behind many injustices we face every day. And the new constitution lost.

I honestly can't believe it.

I remember 2019, people protesting in the streets, doing something amazing that was seen worldwide, everybody knew, everybody was supporting us. They were beating, torturing and killing us. I couldn't go out to protest, but i was helping the ones who were. I remember having my door open for them. I remember having to heal the wounds of my 20 year old friends, blood on my floor. I remember carrying them to the hospital when they lost their eyes to the police. I remember hunger, fear, pain.

I'm sad, and I'm angry. We were out there for a whole year, fighting like warriors, demanding for changes, and when we finally got the chance, when the voice of the people got heard, the fear and the media that have been keeping us like sheep for all these years won again.

I'm devastated. Look at this.

We're a country in fear. There's fear of how we live right now, but there's also fear of changing.

We're a country with no memory. How can people forget the injustices, the murdering and the torture we went through? It was just two years ago.

I just want to leave. I need to leave.

If you can share this, please do. The world should know what's going on here and how the fight when started in 2019 is going, because this isn't the end. There's anger everywhere. I can already see it happening all over again and I'm terrified.

Ukrainian leader holds meetings with Lula and Boric

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky Wednesday met separately with his Brazilian and Chilean colleagues on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

 After a frustrated encounter during the G7 Summit in Hiroshima earlier this year, Zelensky finally met with Brazil's Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

“We had a good conversation about the importance of the ways to build peace and to always maintain an open dialogue between our countries,” Lula wrote on social networks. He also confirmed that his former foreign minister and special Advisor Celso Amorim would participate in the Copenhagen process in the search for a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine.

The meeting took place “in a calm and friendly atmosphere, in which they exchanged information about each of the countries and the current situation in the world,” Brazil's current top diplomat Mauro Vieira told reporters.

Desahogo de un 11 de septiembre (50 años)

No suelo subir o comentar cosas relacionadas a la política (por acá) pero no porque me desmarque o no me guste, si no porque aquí es donde vengo a mirar y tener charlas casuales de vez en cuando.. e incluso formando amistades con alguna que otra persona que termino conociendo de manera real jaja.

Pero lo qué pasó acá hace exactos 50 años es para no olvidar y enseñarles a las futuras los horrores que hicieron: un grupo de privilegiados acompañados de otros con armas.

En mi caso mi familia no sufrió todo el martirio que sufrieron otros porque básicamente ellos vivieron en el campo y mantuvieron ignorante a la gente de esa zona, pero eso no me priva de tener pena, dolor y lastima por aquellos que sufrieron, incluso he soltado un par de lagrimas oyendo y leyendo testimonios de gente que sufrió en carne propia todo esto o relatos de familiares.

Como que hago la reflexión de que si yo hubiera vivido en la época qué pasó todo esto fácilmente podría estar muerto o pude ser alguien torturado porque mis ideas van contrario a quienes tomaron el poder en esa época, onda que te lleven detenido y te maten solo por ¿estar sindicalizado y luchar por tus derechos laborales? O ¿por ir a marchar por los derechos de otros porque básicamente no quieres que las futuras generaciones se banquen una vida de mierda por falta de oportunidades? Lo encuentro brigido

En mis casi 29 años he conocido vivencias de gente cercana, desde familiares de un amigo que participaron en desabastecimiento planeado hasta el padre de otro que fue golpeado y torturado por militares y que fuera arrojado al río para que la naturaleza hiciera lo suyo, ese tipo de cosas, ese tipo de hechos hacen que uno tome bandera, tome un idealismo a demostrar que lo qué pasó hace 50 años no debe pasar más y está en nosotros evitar que vuelva a suceder, no se trata de odio, no se trata de ignorancia, se trata de empatía y conocimiento de los horrores que se cometieron.

Para finalizar, aún no entiendo y no entenderé a esa gente que le da lo mismo o simplemente se desentiende con estas fechas, a caso ¿no sabrán leer? ¿No sabrán sentir? ¿Tan manipulables los dejaron que no te hace reflexionar todo lo que se vivió? Hasta la fecha han salido y salido archivos y documentos donde se demuestra todo de cómo se planeo, hay un listado de victimas y desapariciones, hay testimonios de personas e incluso hasta te hacen un recorrido por el Estadio Nacional mostrando todo los horrores que ahí se cometieron, hay fotografías de los niños asesinados por parte de las fuerzas armadas.. y así puedo seguir enlistando cosas que como mínimo pueden hacer cuestionar la oscura época de nuestro país.. y ahora te pregunto ¿te sigue dando lo mismo? ¿Seguirás igual de indiferente a lo qué pasó? Porque nosotros no pedimos que tomes bandera y seas de un partido político, simplemente se te invita a reflexionar de todo lo que mencione antes, no solo para generar un pensamiento crítico si no que a sacar a esa gente que válida y niega todos los horrores para mantener sus privilegios a coste de la vida de miles de inocentes.

En fin, si llegaste hasta aquí lo agradezco, y como dice el titulo, esto es un desahogo a lo que se conmemora hoy en nuestro país, viva Chile y viva el pueblo trabajador ✊🏾🇨🇱.

light yagami was such a fucking idiot. "oh i'm gonna write the names of convicted/arrested criminals i see on tv to instate a random universal death penalty". idiot. ofc they're gonna be able to narrow down who's watching the broadcasts. here's a non-exhaustive list of people i'd write down to improve the world without getting caught:

Trump. DeSantis. Rishi Sunak. Keir Starmer. Le Pen. Zemmour. Weidel. Höcke. Wagenknecht. Orban. Lukashenko. Putin. Dugin. Prigozhin. Erdoğan. Aliyev. Meloni. Netanyahu. Mohammed bin Salman. Modi. Bolsonaro. Alberto Fujimori. Keiko Fujimori. Jair Bolsonaro. Javier Milei. José Antonio Kast.

feel free to expand this list in case someone ends up with a death note and doesn't want to get caught.
