"URSAL" meaning in Portuguese

See URSAL in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Etymology: Acronym of União das Repúblicas Socialistas da América Latina (“Union of the Socialist Republics of Latin America”). It is also related to urso + -al, meaning ursal, bearish (“of or relating to bears”). This term was originally coined as a satire in 2001 by Brazilian sociologist Maria Lúcia Victor Barbosa. In 2006, it was treated seriously as a conspiracy theory in an article for the Jornal do Comércio (Journey of Commerce) by Brazilian writer Olavo de Carvalho. In 2018, the conspiracy theory was popularized in Brazil by presidential candidate Cabo Daciolo.
