Lula please get nukes asap

He can have nukes once he purges the military and police of all the fascists

I'm a Brazilian who voted for Lula (and one who recently was introduced to revolutionary literature). Lula is at most a milquetoast socdem, one who is willing to betray the people who gave him immense support during these elections just to adopt a neoliberal agenda to appease the capitalists, so he can get their approval to govern. So no, don't expect anything from Lula.

The only way to make Lula adopt a more radical stance is by making pressure from bottom up. But I doubt we could do anything toforce upon him a nuclear program. He isn't brave enough to do an industrialization program, let alone a military program that includes nukes, missiles, drones and other deterrence measures.

It was mostly a joke but I am actually concerned that the US will focus on subjugating your country next after Venezuela and Cuba.

If we are making wishes I'll have a global, absolute nuclear weapons disarm. A lot of people I guess don't know this, but Latin America as a whole have acted in the past as a block upon urgent matters like the Cuban missile crisis. Not every nation is deadbrain to build nuclear weapons.

That's nice, but the USA will never disarm itself from its nuclear weapons. Next idea?
