hey what the fuck is happening in Brasil with twitter
it's banned for not taking down accounts that our country justice system requested (most of those were nazis)
do you guys have any other options?
we can use any other platform besides twitter, most of us are going to Bluesky or threads (tumblr, ofc, is safe, but no one is coming here lol).
I want to add: The demand was to take down accounts that spread fake news during covid and far-right accounts who were using the platform to call to arms the right wings to attempt a violent coup after the 2021 election that ACTUALLY TOOK PLACE [x] (and, luckily, failed). Twitter was also owning us 3.6 Million dollars in fines over a different issue.
Instead of complying, twitter shut down it's Brazilian headquarters, firing ever single worker without notice. Any company providing a service in Brazil must have a brazilian representative to make sure it complies with our law, and twitter no longer does.
Not only that, but Musk himself started to spread fake news about our elections, literally and explicitly accusing our minister of justice of election fraud. The narrativer he is trying to build is that Brazil is in some sort of dictatorship and is against free speech when, again, the issue is people doing online crimes.
He also tagged him and threatening him with jail using an AI picture of him and compared him to Voldemort and Darth Vader in multiple occasions. Musk is, in fact, that pathetic.
