Should people be worried about Bolsonaro's election as Brazilian President?

Obviously, this matters much more to people in Brazil but I also think it has international significance.

Breitbart, for example, supports what is likely to be the impending Brazilian military dictatorship:

For some light utopian escapism, I'm gonna watch some more House of Cards on Netflix

I’m worried about it. The whole world seems to be going in a fascist direction. Did we learn nothing at all from WW2?

Only a small percentage of the population lived through WWII, the majority know of it through movies and history class. They have no feeling for what brought it about. I have hope that the upcoming USA election will put us back on track to a civilized society.
