First reactions from the streets of Brazil after the news broke that Congress had voted to initiate an impeachment proceeding against President Dilma Rousseff:

“What do you mean: politics? impeachment? president? – I just want carnival and football!”

“They are starting to investigate Petrobras. Quick, let’s cover up the bribes!”

“Congratulations on your political system, Mr Löw.” – “You need to start a world war and destroy the whole continent. Then the Americans will come, save your ass and build a proper democracy for you, too.”

“I am no longer important. Boohooo.”

“You greedy bastard politicians! You stole the oil, you stole the jobs, you stole the taxes, you stole the pensions! All I have left is this T-shirt and I will fight to my death to keep it!”

“My parents said we won’t get a permanent seat on the UN Security Council.”

“None of this matters. At least we are still a multi-ethnic, non-racist country and that is something we can be proud of!”

“Can this be true? Maybe I won’t be the most-hated person in Brazil forever.”
I am Brazilian and this is all very sad… we are lost, the most shameful government of the world!!!
It’s not THAT bad. There are really much worse places in the world!
