| "'We will not surrender': Bolsonaro militants demand coup as Lula prepares to take power.” —The Guardian, December 22, 2022 |
Law and order, we demand.
A military coup
Will go (we hope!) the way we planned,
Since Bolsonaro's through.
Ironic? Sure, but that's our way;
The Left will not enjoy it
When Right makes might makes right. We say,
To save Brazil, destroy it!
