You know those crazy conspiracy theories... 2026 showed us that some of them were not that crazy after all.

Yeah calling these things a bug or technical issue is just bullshit.
elmer2•13h ago
The same thing happened with Trump's accounts. Should we start making rules that big tech can no longer interfere with politics?

..Or will we only see this support when it comes to Liberal/Leftist politicians?

Many of these complaints are fascism in diaguise. You complain and want laws changed when it comes to your candidate and don't want the same rules to apply to the opposition.

This is an article about documented & acknowledged issues in the BRAZILIAN election. Try reading the actual article before bringing your favorite fascist dictator into the conversation.

Whatever. Even if it's true, it doesn't even come close to the systematic censorship of the brazilian right wing perpetrated by supreme court judges back around 2022. They're all shamelessly helping Lula now, too.

It looks like the right is going to win regardless, and those judges are going to be impeached. Next year looks promising.
