I like how being against socialism just makes you "far right" these days

The only thing negative that I've read about him, not that I've read a whole lot, is something about mining the rain forest.

I don't consider myself an environmentalist wackjob, but I do feel we need to approach such things cautiously.

I've not heard that, but it's definitely a good thing to bring up. Brazil has a lot more issues than rain forest preservation right now though.

I agree.

It looks like there might a little meat to the claim, but after reading this it seems like much of it is butt hurt over him wanting out of the Paris Accord.

The main problem in brazil is corruption, not communism, socialism, far right, consrvative or whatever political rethoric anyone is spouting. It's Just plain old widespread corruption!
