China Spreads Propaganda to U.S. On Facebook, a Platform It Bans at Home

House of Cards? Brazil faced a coup d'etat with the same script of the series, at the same time it was aired. I'm skeptical so I don't believe in coincidences.

You think that's coincidence? Remember "The Lone Gunmen" [1] - spinoff X-files series aired in 2001 where planes (flown by wire) nearly hit the WTC.

There was no coup.

And really. People joked about it being equal to House of Cards. But the real facts were way too outrageous to get into a fictional script.

Do you honestly the Brazilian Justice and Congress joined forces to do a coup and used a US TV series to manipulate the people into supporting them?

Really?

Do you genuinely believe that what I said is about a plot between a TV Series and the corrupt congress and brazilian justice? Really?

I bet you are these kinds that think Brazil was been "left-wing" brainwashed and the federal universities are all bolivarian. But a TV Series is just a TV Series.
