Props to John Oliver for learning a routine involving both speaking Portuguese and using nunchucks at the same time.

I'm sure the HBO budget department is also grateful for the inexpensive ending.

I wonder if the execs at HBO talk about John to their therapists?

that's why he makes the big bucks!

@@anticharlatan5823 depends on the invoice of his nun chuck trainer 🤣

@@couragekarnga8735 thank you my dude, you’ve just made my day with that comment :)

As a Brazilian I must say: fui rir e chorei.

Eu rs quando ele começou a falar da pandemia não deu pra segurar a tristeza e o desgosto.

Já eu vim chorar e ri

Brasileiros falam isso? Sksksksksksksksk

Exatamente kkkkkkkkrying

To the Brazilians here, don't be embarrassed. Political fanaticism is on the rise everywhere and in general it's a really bad time for democracy rn 💔 sending hugs and strength from the Philippines

thanks 🥰

Thank you so much.

Thanks bro

Thank you! Ps: I love the Philippines!

Bro this guy is super biased. Brazil is in the best situations it has ever been in the last 20 years

I am watching this one day after the elections. Lula won by an uncomfortable small margin. I am so worried about all of the threats and the subsequent unrest that could come out of this situation. But I am glad that you tried to speak Brazilian Portuguese and you did not hurt yourself with the nunchucks.

Ganhou por uma margem de poucos votos, mas considerando TUDO que o Bolsonaro fez e tinha na mão, é uma vitória GIGANTE. Despejou bilhões no eleitorado pouco tempo antes das eleições, em publicidade só do YouTube batia R$6mi em 1 dia. Tinha a máquina do Estado na mão dele, dos 4 estados com maior colégio eleitoral, 2 tinham governadores eleitos no 1º turno que apoiavam ele, teve coação e compra de votos descaradas, não só por parte das prefeituras, mas de patrões coagindo funcionários. Além disso tudo, ainda usou a PRF pra impedir as pessoas de votarem, num gritante golpe de Estado… e ainda assim, com tudo isso, PERDEU! Ganhar roubando é feio, mas perder roubando é HUMILHANTE!

The margin would have been a lot bigger if federal authorities weren't stopping buses and cars

Nice to look back knowing he lost and was laughed out of court and fined when he tried to say it was rigged. Sometimes there is justice.

That's nice to know

Good to hear he got the full Trump treatment

As always, John’s words were prophetic. His videos age really well.

Yes, they do☑️💯📈

I feel like John must be the only British man to have ever spoken Portuguese while swinging nunchucks around.

Well that's a hard combination

Idk, there are many brits that live in Portugal lol

Sounds like something Richard Francis Burton would've done.

There's a reason Bolsonaro is called "the Trump of the Tropics", because he's every bit like Trump, from his rhetoric, to his supporters

It's really scary how you really only have to exclude the name of the person and the country and you could be talking about either one.

I'm very impressed by John's Portuguese here! It's so common for people in movies and shows to claim that they speak a foreign language only for them to go and say something completely unintelligible without the subtitles! John's Portuguese is not perfect, of course, but it's perfectly comprehensible, even without the subtitles. It gets even more impressive considering he's using nunchucks at the same time!

John Oliver I love you you dude. Every week you inform us and make us laugh, make us think, and give us a little HOPE. You will never know how grateful I am

The last bit was intended to be funny, but as a Brazilian I definitely couldn't stop the tears! Thanks for the support and widespread of our worries here!

Terribly insensitive, Samurai taxi driver and Oliver. The notion nunchaku = samurai is like having someone make a pastiche about celebrating Hanukkah and calling himself a "proud commie-fighting *Nazi Waffen SS warrior."* Nunchaku, part of Karate developed in Okinawa, was specifically developed to DESTROY samurai oppressors who imposed 90% tax rates and exploited them for 4 centuries like the English did the Irish. When the samurai ran out of native Japanese tribes to slaughter and resettle (Ezo, Kumaso, Hayato, Tsuchigumo, etc. eradiated completely. Nivkh, Ainu, Oroks fled out of Japan), they sailed South to Okinawa and butchered the people there but found it too far to resettle, so they confiscated all the weapons and killed anyone trying to fight back against samurai military dictatorship and oppression. Just look at all the weapons they use. Grindstone handles become the Tonfa, Threshing flails become Nunchaku, Sickles get a chain added and become Kusarigama. Lot of basic Karate moves make no sense until you realize they are exercises for using Tonfas or the like. These are all roundabout ways for the Okinawans to fight back against the Samurai rapists and save their families with the remaining farming tools available after the samurai confiscated all weapons. A lot of these weapons/techniques were specifically made to disable the samurai oppressors' katana. I guess if in Medieval Europe people were also imposed not the historical 25% but 90% taxes and all their weapons were confiscated like the Okinawans suffered, they too would develop martial arts with wheat-threshing flails. Japan has taken Okinawan heritage, like with many other Asian heritage, and stolen it, and use it to make money overseas. Especially egregious is this where taking martial arts SPECIFICALLY MADE TO DEFEND AGAINST THEIR TYRANNY and making a mockery of it for the oppressors' profit? *Pure evil.* The Okinawan suffering continued into the 20th century spent as WW2 cannon fodder for Japan where Japan hides the fact that these people are NOT Japanese but loves to use them to bloat numbers to play victim to Americans like the Himeyuri Schoolgirls of Okinawa they raped and conscripted to die as cannon fodder. _Did you know 1/3 of nuclear victims of Hiroshima (WMD poison gas production hub, used to make bombs to gas Asian cities for 30 years and heavily contributed to the 30 million death toll incurred by Japan) and Nagasaki (Mitsubishi slave factory center) were foreign Asian slaves Japan desperately tries to hide but uses their number to bloat their numbers to drive a narrative? Along with how they were making 2 Japanese nukes but needed to buy time so they scheduled to expand germ-bombing missions to America in the September of 1945? (Not even Nazis used WMDs in war)_ On top of that, after using the Okinawan deaths to give US forces the false notion that people on this small "Japanese" island are determined to fight to the death to hopefully disencouraged US forces to land on mainland Japan, Japanese oppressors expounded the propaganda they've been fed about "demonic" westerners are going to come and rape all their kids and eat them alive (thus why they must blow themselves up in kamikazes for Japan), they must kill their own children to spare them such a fate, and follow in suit with seppuku (because dead men tell no tales about Japanese war crimes). The remaining Okinawans once the Japanese fled and left them to their fates, were surprised that landing US forces gave them food and medicine, and discovereed it were the Japanese who were raping Okinawan children. Many took the food they were given as offerings to the children they killed, and on their graves they wept tears of blood and cursed Japan. When in the 20th century Okinawans started to spread their Karate culture in Japan and overseas do you know what the Japanese did? They forcibly renamed it from 唐手 to 空手 (both read as Kara-te), changing the meaning "China-hand" which pays respects to the original Chinese man who taught Okinawans his style of martial arts, to "Empty-hand" because Japan can't steal it if it has "China" right in the name. Not to mention the big reason Karate became more popular outside of Japan was because the Japanese Judo masters suppressed it, and for quite some time this even was portrayed in media where it was common to depict "noble Judo master defeating thuggish Karate criminals." Then after WW2, Okinawans were still treated like Burakumin (the Untouchable Pariahs of Japan) and were mistreated as a whole in society and were ridiculed for unscrupulous thugs who complain about Japan yet still sought work in Japan (that's only because Japan destroyed everything on Okinawa). And dumped 70% of military bases in the tiny islands of Okinawa where it takes up 20% of the land and forbids constructing high rise buildings for security reasons. It's no wonder Okinawans want independence like the Irish achieved, and when announcing they want to be like the 2nd Singapore of Asia, Japan scoffs at them today and says they are too poor to be independent, forgetting that's only because they have been enslaving them for 4 centuries. There is a good reason why 1 billion Asians cheered for American nukes emancipating them from human experimentation/vivisection on forcibly impregnated girls and their unwanted fetuses, cannibalism, civilian lynch mobs, violent Japanese civilian resettlers, sex slavery of 80-man daily rape quotas per underage girl and subsequent execution if pregnant or at the end of the war because dead girls tell no tales (see Vivian Bullwinkel), mass forced labor, ppl used as cannon fodder for the one true god that is Emperor Hirohito under threat of lynching their families if they refused, forcing colonials to commit seppuku suicide like samurai to fool Americans how "determined" the colonies are to defending Japan, firebombing cities, gassing cities, bombing with germ bombs, erasing culture, arresting/executing any teachers in the colonies that dared teach their native language or tried to build private schools or even make a dictionary of their native language, and forbidding any language but Japanese. Samurai of Feudal Japan were also brutal pimps that sold their girls out for Portuguese muskets. The most powerful warlord of 1500s, Oda Nobunaga and his rivals were busy setting up brothels in Philippines to put his slave girls to earn money for his wars (this is on top of an average of 75% tax rates for Japanese peasants, enough that even in the peacetimes of the 19th century, analyst Nobuhiro Satou said annually, 1/3 households in Japan killed a baby.) In the 19th century these became derogatorily nicknamed "Karayuki-san" (Miss Gone-to-China), and later more formally recognized and praised as "Joshigun" (Army of Girls). Famous leading thinkers like Yukichi Fukuzawa praised them like prized moneymaking livestock to earn dollars and pounds for Japan's colonial expansion and "reforms." In around Meiji Restoration period alone, 300,000 Japanese girls were pimped abroad and their brothels even reached India and Australia. Even these Japanese girls noted that native tribesmen were the best partners and the absolute violent and worst were the Japanese men, but wanted white men to rescue them from Japan's brutal sex slave industry. (Think of the background the Italian Opera Madame Butterfly was written in). When this wasn't enough to cover the costs of Japan's ever growing undeclared invasions and more wars, they started kidnapping 100s of 1000s of colonial girls to meet demand. And ofc all throughout, they justified everything as the right of Samurai Spirit and Right of Conquerors. The mythical Samurai fervor was used to justify kamikazes, samurai spirit was used to justify having no respect for POWs and were used up in decapitating contests for sport or eaten as sushi. (2 million out of 3 million soldiers had cannibalized a slave/native) (This is why veteran and President George HW Bush threw up the sushi the Japanese PM served in a banquet in 1992, his wingmen were captured and eaten in Chichijima to dehumanize Americans as subhuman livestock and allay the fears of the Japanese troops) Samurai bushido spirit was why the soldiers were given swords in WW2 because holy samurai yamato spirit trumped practicality.

Tic tac kkkkkkkkkkkk Já começou.

The most surprising thing in this video is that John didn't hurt himself when he did the nunchuck segment. Well done.

As a full bred Brazilian, I am not only flattered but completely breaking down from laughing, that was incredible and muito obrigado por falar sobre tudo que está acontecendo no meu amado país. I live in America now, and it really worries me how things are going to play out there.

Quite funny that HBO didn't allow this to be available on HBO MAX in Brazil, hilarious in fact.

they probably dont want to piss off half their subsribers...or, rather 43.5% of their subscribers

Is probably because the ele electoral laws. The Greg News is the Brazilian version of this same show, but during the electoral time, they stop doing the show, because you have to be impartial. This episode just says the truth, but could be a problem in Brazil because speaks about the Tchutcuca do Centrão (bolsonaro). But it's just my speculation about it

Brazilian voting laws wouldn't allow it. HBO Max will have to wait until November 1st.

@@juhgata1000 Actually, the electoral laws only allow the political content that is made from within the official debate, aka made by candidates and their party themselves. This episode only shows a political opinion/analysis BASED ON FACTS and IT IS LEGAL. What HBO did was purely a censorship move, supported by their own political toughts...

@@KokoroYuge I'm confused... you say brazillian electoral laws ONLY ALLOW political content made from the parties, but this HBO show is political content (even if it's based on facts) NOT made from the parties themselves, so according to your description of brazillian law, this show would NOT be allowed, to air would it? I'm not saying HBO doesn't prefer not to mess around with their largest market in Latin America, i'm saying maybe that explanaition doesn't completely make sense?

The pollution wouldn't be this bad if they'd stop 🛑 burning and cutting down the rain forest! Oliver's writer's are excellent at looking up facts and John does a great delivery of those facts. Oliver's one in a million of my favorite people.😊

From Brazil here and I have a story that might make you smile. So it’s been a month, he’s lost and so far things haven’t been as bad as we expected, there have been attempts to block roads and highways but they’re not lasting. But one thing that happened with those blocks makes me think my country might be alright after all: a bus full of fans of Clube Atlético Mineiro, a football team also known as Galo, were on their way to another city to watch their beloved teams game when they came across one of these blocks between them and sweet sweet football. The fans got out of the bus and rushed the block beating up the people doing it and physically forcing the road open clearing the way for them to cheer on those that really hold Brazilian allegiance. Some highlights include selfies among the mess and someone over weight uncle (bless that man he is a saint) filming himself in the aftermath screaming (roughly translated): “We are not Bolsonaro, we are not Lula, we are F*cking Galo!!!”

I know this is late but omg this is amazing!! 😂🤣

Update: Bolsonaro has now been confirmed to have been beaten for re-election. I wish people of Brazil good luck.

as a brazilian, i fucking loved this, laughed my ass out at most of the jokes, its tragically funny looking at the state of our country now, i hope things turn out fine

This was absolutely the most hilarious ending in a long series of hilarious endings by John Oliver 😄 When he 'switched off' the video after the nunchucks dance, I was f***ing crying 😂

A week ago, a good friend of mine came to my house. We are good friends, spite our different political views. He came to show off his Glock and to try to convince me to vote on Bolsonaro. The whole thing made me remind of a movie on pre war germany. Where progressive friends met one day and one of them had joined the Hitlerjugend. I felt sad for our friendship...

Well I hope you stay safe, the rest of the world is so glad that Bolsonaro didn't win :)

John, I'm from Brazil, I love my land, and it was very emotional hear you talking not just about the green areas, but the indegenous people, the real owners of Brazil. The original people of our contry have been killed in this horror govern. Justice for Bruno and Don!

When I turnerd on the TV yesterday and saw what was going on in Brasilia I could not think how John was right about it. Very sad.

8:55 I’ve had my uncle, who unfortunately voted on Bolsonaro, say that to my face… “People die more every year than they have in all of this pandemic!!” “The midia is just doing that to blame the deaths on him!!” How heartless a human being has to be to think like that…

As a brazilian, i must say: John's portuguese was surprisingly good

Né mano!?

Verdade

specially for a first time with a public and live!

Appreciate the confirmation as I would have no way of knowing how well he did. Glad to know he hasn’t made every Brazilian who sees this cringe 😂

Hopefully you guys stay an actual democracy

As a Brazilian, I don't know if I'm more thankful for the support or embarrassed we got to this point.

The moment he broke out the chucks I said "If you don't switch off this camera at the end of this episode I will never forgive you". John never lets us down

John Oliver never fails to deliver a well-thought criticism episode against fascists in the most hilarious way. Pulling off that Portuguese dialogue while handling nunchucks.... Respect!

I am from Brazil, and I can confirm the accuracy of this video. He is not even exagerating.

Yes he is just being super biased and not showing the truth about who Lula is

Ganhamos, família, é Lulaaaa 🇧🇷❤❤

Here after Lula won! I'm not Brazilian, but it definitely feels like a weight lifted off my shoulders

Yeah, it's like the earth took a deep breath in relief.

Thats the exact feeling of most of us here. But there is still part of us that is not accepting the results, exactly like when Trump was kicked out. Lets see what happens in the next days. Things are on fire, hopefully not literally.

Same here. HUGE sigh of relief. Jesus Christ all those dictators need to fucking go.

@@user-kh7ej8rn6y What policies or actions indicate Lula wants to be a dictator?

Wow. As a Brazilian I'm so happy that you took the time to talk about our situation here... And the Portuguese was perfect! Haha thanks

Yes! There are times when country feels isolated, if not, irrelevant to the rest of the world.

This aged a lot better then I hoped it would

I'm from Brazil and this was really gratifying to watch! This was a very good summary of the recent tragedy our country has been living in, somehow John Oliver made it even funny

A primeira foi com o lula e com a Dilma

A verdade é que o Brasil e uma vergonha, eu sendo brasileiro posso afirmar isso

Hey, I really want to visit Sau Paulo. Can you be a guide? I like to go places where I have someone I know…who I can communicate. Happy to return the favor if you coming to cali:) From North Cal.

thank you very much for the support. conscientious people in Brazil are severely worried, but with faith that Bolsonaro will fall! kisses and hugs from a 19-year-old voter who hopes that the country will get out of the hands of this corrupt man soon

Estamos vivendo um capítulo muito triste, mais uma vez, da história do Brasil. Bolsonaro é uma ameaça em muitas instâncias e, infelizmente, a manobra de massa a seu favor é funcional.

Bolsonaro handled COVID like a gaming youtuber letting all his characters suffer in the sims for fun

You guys need to do part 2 cause shit got crazy than expected! Really! The world NEEDS to see it!

I’m a Brazilian and it’s so sad seeing how the country is right now… the other day my aunt and mom had a very heated discussion because my mom said she didn’t want to vote for Bolsonaro. Family members are mad at each other, some people not even talking or upset because one of them is voting or not voting for Bolsonaro. I also want to add that here lots of Christians believe that if Bolsonaro doesn’t become president, churches will be closed and they won’t have freedom of speech anymore. It’s brainwashing.

It generally troubles me how much democracy is threatened in the 21st century.

History is always coming full circle unfortunately. We get to enjoy some good times and suddenly it's 1945 all over again

Reminder that during the 70s and 80s all of Latin America was under dictators trained and supported by the US. The economic interests of the US and of the local oligarchs for Latin America haven't changed since then (resource extraction economy, hatred of unions, privatization). The number of century doesn't magically change the material conditions.

Thank you! It was a nice kind of relief. Even if the worst happens and Bolsonaro gets elected, this kind of video helps me understand that it was a lost cause in the first place. Even with all these points ppl still vote for Bolsonaro, the population really deserves what they will get.

yes, finally a very true statement..im not sure exactly why, but brazilians love to complain about something that in fact they have control over...maybe its a very low level of self efficacy

Comecei rindo, depois veio o embaraço e agora tô chorando de desespero mesmo.

@@vinnie1601 Time will tell my friend.. I sincerely wish Brazil the best 🙏

I used to watch this show a lot but I started to notice that the truth bombs were weighing on me for hours after watching....I could sense a quiet growing desperation in John's voice compared to earlier episodes.. I love that he is educating us and opening the door for change through the sharing of information - but I admire him a lot more and the entire staff for still being able to hold on to their sanity while researching this stuff.🤣🤣🤣 but I personally cannot watch last week tonight too often or I'm gonna lose my shit.🥴

Every few months I binge through a whole bunch of them at once so if I lose my sanity it's only once and not over a long period of time lol

3:28 impressive how precise it was. There was a tropical version of the capitol riots. But there wasn’t coup d’etat. The strength of democracy was tested.

I'ven been keeping up with John's show for quite some time. I watched him talk about 2018's elections in Brazil and I'm watching him talking talking about of 2022's. I think it's flattering for us to be aknowleged like that by the people who had gone through to what we are being subjected right now. Thanks John.

Why is it flattering? It is a trend of his show to talk about countries around the world. We are part of the world. Not flattering at all. In fact, if you consider the reason why we got to be the main story of this episode, it is very concerning.

@@rejaneflorinda6162 Maybe change flattering to aknowleged but the idea is the same. The show has done its research in great detail, recognized the similarities and the influence of what happened to them in 2016 in our country. it's more than most people would do.

We’ll now that lula won in that run off, I pray to god the repercussions aren’t as severe and tragic as Prof. Cunha thought

Good news: Bolsnaro is no longer in power Bad news: His supporters at least went through with their threats of a copycat January 6th although fortunately not to the extent we feared

We have towns, cities even metropolises. We have a completely normal life here. I'm from western Pará. It's a great state. It has the most largest population out of all the states in the massive rainforest. We have school, high schools, institutes and universities. In Amazonas (another state) there are a dynamic number of industries, they even produce cars and all different types of stuff( okey that's cool! But... what about roads? ) we do have them although there is a lot to work on around here. We have the rivers though. we travel mostly by Ships, boats, ferri boats and other types of boats you can think of. It's not like there isn't humanity here. This video was very awesome ! It put a smile on my face. thank you! ( now go check my YouTube channel and social medias ) we lit!

Precisamos mais do que muita sorte, mas muito obrigado.

As I Brazilian, I commend your attempt to speak Portuguese. Also, good job with the nunchucks!

Fantastic! Perfect reading of our lame politic scenario!

The Portuguese bit made me emotional. It's been rough years around here. Thank you, John and crew.

Hopefully, you will end this shitshow next Sunday.

@@deloreandmc88 we got it worse here, so why would you wish him that?

@@deloreandmc88 rough for the majority of the country and for anyone who cherishes democracy. That's why we're voting him out and there's nothing you can do about it.

As a proud Brazilian, I must say: WE WON

Thank you for this. I’m Brazilian, it’s a wave of mediocrity and stupidity.

It was just perfect. And John Oliver pronounced "boa sorte" with our Southeastern accent. Loved it.

He took lessons from Trump. Going through the same things.

mad props on the Portuguese. The pronunciation isn't easy, and he used way less armpit with the nunchucks than the other guy...... a true talent

How cool is to listen fake news from HBO HAHAHAHA

@@albertoalmeida3424 how is it fake?

@@justincaseaccount3995 I'm guessing that the other guy shows more armpit? 🤔 It's the only news that could be fake in the comment no?

@@Magrafo_ HAHAHAHA You belive on the press who depends on state money. My friend, I have diplomat and journalists in my family. Good luck to you!

@@justincaseaccount3995 I barelly wacthed this video. I quit when he talked about "deforestation". My friend, Brazil has the HARDEST laws and policies about this matter. It's kind of miracle our farming produce that much under that laws. France, Germany, US, UK, etc ... even under our strict laws we produce more than them. LIES LIES AND MORE LIES. We protect more our nature than whole Europe together. FACT.

As a Brazilian, as funny as the show is, it’s just sad to see a country with so much potential facing a decline

As a Brazilian as funny as the show us I just figured out John doesn’t know anything about Brazil

Oh. Thank you so much to make me laugh in such a horrendous times. Greetings from Brazil ❤

I'm very well impressed by the end.

A friend of mine just sent me this link. It's sad to see such an amazing storm of admiration for what is happening here. In the name of many, would love to ask for prayers or positive vibrations from those who really worship our country and our people and feel sorry for what's going on. We all know that all countries have ups and downs, but we also know that many have been used efforts to minimize the problems and make this world a better and peaceful place to live. Unfortunately, for the time being, this is not Brazil's case, and I feel sorry for all the jokes that B******ro has forced on you. I just ask you this. Pray for this country.
