Land is taken by the state to build mines.

A nation taking land for its strategic needs is called “expropriation”. I don’t know your country, but I’m sure it does that as well, because this is something all of them do.

I think any discussion about China being a democracy or a dictatorship can’t work at all if you can’t figure out the definitions communists use.

Like “China says they are a dictatorship, so they can’t be a democracy”, but communists define every single government as a dictatorship, only changing what social class is in power, so what even is the point on nitpicking a word that for them just means “well, there is a government here”?

As for “democracy”, I don’t know if communists have another definition for it, but if you want a government where “power is held by the people” and you believe that every government is a dictatorship, then the only option of a democratic government you get is a “dictatorship of the people”.

You just described Flavio’s dad.

Everytime the investigations aganinst him advanced, he would run to the hospital claiming to need some emergency operation to fix his intestines.

After he got sent to jail, he started acting like a moribund senile grandpa, falling from the bed, complaining about the air conditioner’s noise, while newspapers would every fucking day report his family crying about how much he was suffering.

Or Flavio’s own dad, Jair, who is already arrested.

I hope you’re trolling.

The name is Pernambuco em Pé.
