Jair Bolsonaro leads Brazil employing methods that moralize society through arousing feelings like fear and hatred while having the support of some evangelical churches, police, and army. His mandate has seen nearly 700,000 COVID deaths and accelerated destruction of the Amazon rainforest despite maintaining popularity, with 38% of Brazilians viewing his government positively. Bolsonaro and his supporters are portrayed as leaders and soldiers respectively seeking to attract crowds through sometimes false or illegal means.
