In a video message to his followers, former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro warned that the country is on the brink of becoming a dictatorship. He urged his supporters to join him in a peaceful demonstration on Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro to defend democracy and freedom. Bolsonaro emphasized that the future of the country, including the future of their children and grandchildren, is at stake.
Bolsonaro’s warning comes amid rising tensions between Elon Musk and Brazilian Supreme Court judge Alexandre de Moraes over censorship of coup messages on social media. The dispute between Musk and Moraes has intensified with Musk accusing Moraes of interfering in the 2022 Brazilian elections.
The situation has attracted international attention, with a US House of Representatives committee publishing a report on Moraes’ decisions related to digital platforms. In addition to this, Bolsonaro had previously organized a large protest in São Paulo, advocating for amnesty for those detained in connection with an alleged attempted coup earlier in the year. The investigation into the incident is being led by Judge Moraes, who has already handed down severe sentences to those convicted.
Despite the ongoing political and legal turmoil in Brazil, Bolsonaro and his supporters remain determined to defend their beliefs and fight for their vision of Brazil’s future. The situation has sparked debates and discussions online, with various topics such as casino games, fashion trends, and parenting tips making headlines.
