“Brazil sees massive drop in alt right hate speech”
finally some fucking good news
Lucky for them
One down couple hundred more to go.
Well-played, Brazil
GOOD. Elon doesnt get to taunt us with a coup unpunished.
You apparently forget he said Twitter needed major before he bought it.
It's by design. 🤦🏼♂️
i know and this is why banning it is a good thing. fuck twitter.
Earlier this year, Moraes ordered X to block certain accounts, as he investigates so-called "digital militias" that have been accused of spreading fake news and hate messages during the government of far-right former President Jair Bolsonaro.
That sounds very "on brand" for the company these days.
Should journalists start referring to the platform as "the far-right hate speech platform formerly known as Twitter"?
Too wordy. Try: Naxi.
I like it. I really enjoy calling it Xitter though.
Brazil does not fuck around. They famously jailed several Microsoft execs when they didn't hand over some emails a few years ago.
Edit: Skype data not emails and one exec
Excellent
I really wonder how long X aka Twitter can operate within the EU. The EU is on a smiliar tracetion in my opinion.
This Nazi war-mongering website needs to be shut down everywhere.
I would not mind if my countries' judges grew the same kind of brass balls that the Brazilain Judge sports.
So Bolsonaro won't get elected again, uh.
I'm surprised to be saying this but thank you Elon Muppet.
afaik he's still barred from running for office until 2030, as a result of undermining the validity of the electoral process - the same process that once elected him btw...
He'll be 75yo in '30. Still viable as a candidate.
And, for '26, he's still the one deciding who's going to run for his party. One of the options is his wife Michelle Bolsonaro, a vulture from the same flock as her husband.
Now with Twitter out of the equation* they'll have a harder reaching their base.
EDIT: actually scrap that. It's only its offices, the service will be still available. Fuck it, now I'm sour.
Lol they need to shut down in Indonesia as well Twitter regularly accept censorship request from Indonesian government
Made me think this was the good news community.
Good for Brazilians I guess
