With that said in terms of assessing the response by Brazil by Brazil's sort of Elite or whatever the terms are rebranding around. and I have no doubt that it's not just this, it's not just you know Glenn Greenwald. this is not just a single voice. There is a concerted effort obviously to impose a perspective on Brazil. I think it's happening in the U.S. too. But in Brazil, it's that much more Divergent from what the structure of the system is. What was it that they miscalculated in terms of like Lula's response or the system's response based upon the legal system there that inhibited their planned coup? Well, Lula is one of the best as Michael Brooks probably said dozens of times on this program Lula is one of the most clever and Savvy politicians you know anywhere. And he kind of had a feeling that that might be what they were doing. So what he did was first we had the situation where people were running a muck in the government buildings. Taking a crap on you know filming themselves taking a crap on someone's desk or something has been streaming on the internet. They also took that from us. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I pointed out the similarities, right? Like it's just important that it's not part of Brazilian culture. you know Brazilian that's not an element of Brazilian culture to do that kind of thing..
