Ordem e progreso

I saw some some videos with Bolsanaro the new Brazil president, and I was shocked to see that brazilians have elected a man who endorses torture.
Why?
Let's check the values written on the brasilian flag versus online reality. I never been in Brazi so I cannot say first hand what is happening there.
Ordem:
Let's look at what US departement says about Brazil:

Barzil marks high at all crimes, less the terrorism.
So no Ordem
Progresso:
It seems that from 2000 the salary has increased and Gini index decreased (the wealth is better distributed).
Progresso is present and it seems hat they are more people with money that feel threatened.
The follower basis of Mussolini,Franco and Hitler was the middle class that felt threatened by violence of the communists.
Dilma Roussef failed to address the problem of public order and implicitly of corruption.
I saw a BBC documentary in which she complained that against her it was a political coup and all the charges were political motivated.
But to quote a Margaret Thatcher: "Opposition doesn't win elections, the government losses elections"
Dilma Roussef shares the responsibility for governance of Bolsanaro.

The myth of selling anything to any one

You can find some books or training that supposedly teach you how to sell anything to anyone. But this means that you could sell your product to any one.
But if you sell tampons half of the planet doesn't need it.
So it is better to sell people what they need.
And this requires observation of your client.
You can observe your client and dismantle his objections and try to shovel your product under his throat. This like perfecting your hit on the golf ball without looking at the hole that you are trying to score.
Or you can observe the hole that you are trying to score and improve your hit. This means understanding your client and helping him reaching his goals.
The same differences are in politics.
The are authoritarian governments who are very attentive to what their citizen are saying  in order to maintain to the power. They make small corrections, they arrest a dissident,they change the discourse but in reality nothing is changing.
And it should be democracies that listen the citizen and they offer him all they need for development and their government stay in power.
When you are focusing in how you hit a golf ball, you are focusing on action, on what you do.
When you are focusing in where your ball lands you are focusing on result, on what you want.
This is important on politics, because if you are focusing in what you do: extracting resources from the serfs, increasing economic growth. You are destabilising the system: the serf will need to provide the same amount of grain even if it is famine, the economic growth must continues even if the air is polluted and water is poisoned.
But if you are focusing on what you should obtain: a prosperous estate, and a rich country you will introduce new technologies that provide the same quantity of  grain  regardless of weather, and cleaner environment, and you make the system more stable.

Artificial Intelligence will be the society neocortex?

I am listening to Elon Musk's interview with Joe Rogan. Musk says that the neocortex serves the limbic system, and if we will be connected to AI our brain power will be enhanced.
But if instead the society will connect to AI, The AI will become the society neocortex? Serving it?
This already happens. Google searches are adapting to what we want. Amazon presents the products that we want. The stock exchange is dominated by trading algorithms.
Maybe one day the AI will try consciously to understand us, in same way as we try to understand our darker self.
