There is a joke in Brazil:
Q. Why will there never be a military coup in the US?
A. Because there is no American Embassy there.
Many a true word spoken in jest.
Speaking of Diplomatic licence plate codes, when I was in Rio back in 2012, I followed the arrest of a Drug trafficking gang security chief live on TV (as I listened to the news and police helicopters above my head).
What I found most interesting and could not understand at the time, was that, according to initial reports, he was found, along with millions of Reais, in the trunk of a car bearing Turkish diplomatic plates. Now, post Q, I understand the full breadth and extent of the global corruption.
I tried to search online recently to confirm the details, but it seems any mention of the involvement of a vehicle with Turkish Diplomatic plates has been scrubbed from the net.
And so we see the progression of the R larp that was heavily pushed on here.
The first I heard of the expected resurrection of Jr was once this fake news story broke.
