It's only behind the mafia Russian. With the elections coming up, there is no shortage of “recycling” on the internet. of fake news”. The last one to circulate again points out that a ranking international ranking places Brazil in “second place”. If you are thinking that We are talking about the dead from Covid-19, you are wrong. The list would show PT as the second largest criminal organization in the world. According to the message, an IBC would have created a ranking of the 10 largest criminal organizations in the world and the Workers' Party would be second only to the Russian mafia. The information appeared in a graphic in English accompanied by messages that are not affective to the party in question.

As you saw, the image (accompanied or not by comments) was a hit in the social media. But, to the sadness of some anti-PT supporters, the information that circulating online is false. In 2019, Boatos.org denied the same information. As the denial of yesteryear is valid today, remember what was said: _First, the profiles that have shared this story, as we mentioned initially, they occupy these political bubbles on social networks where “one side hates the other.” Therefore, they are profiles much more likely to share rumors. Then, the messages accompanying the supposed ranking photo also collects bullshit characteristic: it is completely vague, has errors spelling and do not indicate a source (they only mention it, but there is no link that can give us take to the news conference)._ _Afterwards, we set out to try to find out if the supposed source that appears in the image, “IBC.i” exists. And no, we didn't find any website or accessible and reliable portal with that name._ _When we then went looking for the biggest criminal organizations in the world, we find articles, like this one from Fortune, listing precisely the greater according to your profit. Firstly, the Bratva (mafia Russian), followed by Yamagushi Gumi (also known as Yakuza), followed by Italian mafias and the Sinaloa cartel. And PT? Nothing about the party is mentioned in this and other lists._ _Finally, it’s worth thinking with a little logic. A party on the scale of PT and as exposed as it is, it would not remain “off the radar” of investigations into bodies such as CIA, FBI and Interpol if it were a criminal organization of worldwide. Furthermore, it would not continue to exist normally in Brazil._ It is important to mention that, between 2019 and 2020, the PT continued to be not mentioned in any ranking that talks about criminal organizations in the world. In other words: it was fake and this listing continues to be fake. In short: the story that shows that the PT is in second place in a ranking of the world's largest criminal organizations is false. It's just one more political rumor that, for some reason (which we know well), started circulating again in the end of 2020. Ps.: This article is a suggestion from Boatos.org readers.
