We have a population totally divided. Some of us want less taxes and free guns. Some doesn't care to pay taxes, but want better public services (we have an awful public/free basic education system and awful public/free health system, but excellent public/free university). Others, just want the riches to pay more taxes and want everything "free" for students and low-earnings families. Right wing people are usually middle class and people with little education. Left wing are usually sons of rich people who went to public universities (who have a clear socialism agenda). Most of our artist supports left wing. The few ones who don't are demoralized by the media (like the band Ultraje A Rigor, the musician Lobão and comedian Danilo Gentilli).
Left wing and people screwed by the economic crisis we live since 2014 want Lula back in power (if he doesn't go to jail before it), even when the crisis emerged from his sucessor Dilma Roussef. Right wing people are betting in Jair Bolsonaro, but he is too controversial and being an ex-military man doesn't help him. In election, the most likely scenario is that some self-proclaimed center and more moderated candidate (which probably are in reality a left wing one like Marina Silva or João Doria) wins the election in 2018. Brazilians are really afraid of big changes. We tend to be 'shiny happy people' who comfort ourselves even with bad situations.
Well, I think I streched myself a little. Let's go back to games.

If you have a twitter, I want to follow you. If you live around Serra Negra, let´s get together for a cup of coffee and discuss how screwed we are. =D

Actually, I have a twitter, but I tend to only RT stuff (@g_reupert). Serra Negra is near Amparo, right? Used to have a friend from there. But actually I'm from São Leopoldo (near Porto Alegre). Maybe the next time I go to São Paulo!
