In a post on social media, Elon Musk voiced his disapproval of Brazilian Federal Supreme Court minister Alexandre de Moraes, accusing him of acting against the will of the people and democracy. The criticism came after Musk noticed that a pro-Bolsonaro protest in Copacabana had received little support for Moraes, despite censorship attempts.
Former President Jair Messias Bolsonaro praised Musk’s position on freedom of expression and condemned any attempts at censorship on digital platforms in Brazil. During his speech in Rio de Janeiro, Bolsonaro identified Musk as the owner of X and Tesla, applauding him for his stance on freedom.
Musk’s comments on social media have sparked discussions about democracy and freedom of speech in Brazil. Many people are questioning whether Moraes is truly acting in the best interests of the Brazilian people or if he is simply trying to silence those who disagree with him. Some are also concerned about the role that big tech companies like X are playing in shaping public opinion and influencing political discourse.
