More than 50 political parties and NGOs gathered in Sao Paulo, Brazil, to support Venezuela, Iran, Palestine, and Lebanon in the face of U.S. sanctions and interference.
Under the motto “international solidarity against imperialism and for the sovereignty of peoples,” the meeting began with a tribute to the Iranian martyrs who fell in the war imposed by Israel against the Persian country last June.
The delegates denounced unilateral coercive measures against Iran, Venezuela, Yemen, and Cuba, and reaffirmed their support for the resistance of the Palestinian and Lebanese peoples against the Zionist occupation by Israel.
The summit concluded with a strong joint declaration denouncing sanctions against Venezuela and Iran as crimes against humanity and reaffirming the duty to support the Palestinian resistance. Delegates accused the United States and its allies of causing instability in West Asia and Latin America and demanded the immediate lifting of the embargo on Cuba and Venezuela.

I don’t know much about them but anyone in favor of “freedom of speech” of fascists can’t be called “real left”.
PCO is the textbook nazbol party. If I tried to describe it in detail, you’d think it’s satire. But the edgy kids who like left aesthetics are drawn to it.
can you forward me some information if you have any at hand?
You can auto translate their website, they’re pretty honest about their white chauvinist views.

Key issues are anything that relates to indigenous genocide or “free speech”. Note that the word “racism” only pops up once, on the “free speech” section. It’s a white academic socdem/Trot party that roleplays as communist.
They do tend to organize international events such as these, oddly with a lot of international presence despite barely any presence from other local parties. Naturally, the Trots understand the lack of other parties but international validation as a sign that they are the only correct ones and everyone else is wrong.
Damn, I wasn’t expecting to read apologia to colonialism.
Unless I am misunderstanding here, Bandeirantismo are the colonizers that capture and enslave indigenous people for plantations and mines set up by the Portuguese. Damn, now I understand why Brazil persecuted the MST movement. If parties like this condone indigenous enslavement, they can easily excuse violence against the indigenous people and activists from the MST now.
This is horrible
Edit 1.
Also, if possible, @[email protected], could you open a post in c/Genzedong so more people are able to see this information? Also adding @[email protected] and [email protected] so they can also enrich the post with their perspective.
And if it is not much to ask, could you share links of alternative organizations to follow in Brazil? It will be great if those orgs have solidarity with our fellow Venezuelans, Iranians, Palestinians and all of the oppressed by imperialism.
The event in this post was organized by PCO lol
