Logged in for @jaycaspiankang's annual UNC early exit take and first thing that pops up is his wild AM/KD combo take. March Madness indeed.

For the latest edition of @StrangersGuide, I wrote about the Araguaia Guerrilla Force, a Maoist revolutionary movement that took root in the Amazon in the 1970s and fought back Brazil’s largest military deployment since World War II. strangersguide.com/articles/…

“This land is alive. More alive than anywhere else on the planet. It is dense with plants, teeming with insects, filled with the calls of birds, frogs and monkeys. So when we talk about land clearance, we should be clear that this means a slaughter of life, a massacre of nature.”
More than two billion trees killed in four years. The nature holocaust in the Amazon under the ‘President of Death’.
I ask researchers to tally the loss of tree and animal life since Bolsonaro took office.
