On October 25, 2026 Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva defeated Flavio Bolsonaro in the second round of Brazil's presidential election after trailing his opponent in the first round. In this episode, political philosopher Rodrigo Nunes (whose recent book Anatomy of Disintegration uses Bolsonarismo as a lens to analyze the international far right) helps Moira and Adrian understand the election results and in particular Lula's come-from-behind win. The episode explores the origins of Bolsonarismo, the gender dynamics that helped it break through, and its likely future.

I was not expecting this to be *one of my favorite episodes.* Can't wait to read Nunes's book.

Some more (albeit much smaller) good electoral news: Toronto said no to "more cops/I'll go over the budget line by line to make cuts" candidate Brad Bradford and re-elected Mayor Olivia Chow last night. And last week Alberta voted no on the referendum question on whether they should pursue independence, by a ratio of 3:1 (it was a failed astroturf campaign largely funded by outside right wing interests who want Canada's oil).

had to pause at the 25 minute mark when Andrew Tate and “Meat Head” was mentioned. For I was recently reminded before Jordan Peterson went to Russia for Benzo drug treatment, his daughter who is his caretaker Mikhaila met Tate to talk internet business ideas. This in turn became “rumors” that these two people were dating in 2019. Ironic how these cultures blend together over time, the Preacher (Priest), the Creep, the Pervert (Jock style)

Great interview! Would love to hear more about this new version of neoliberalism through platforms employment

Definitely want to pick up this book! Great interview with great insights. Side note- does anyone else feel a twinge every time they use the word “gloss” it has a very different definition in my circles and they use it a lot.

This is precisely my brand of nerdery, and I wonder if Moira and Adrian might consider bringing on someone to talk about recent developments in Central Europe. Serbia and Hungary this year, and Poland last year, all had pivotal elections that helped beat back the forces of illiberalism, and there are a lot of commonalities when it comes to the gendered elements of the proto-autocrats in all three of those countries.
