Brazil's based, now?
Enjoy it while it lasts. We like to immitate the US so in 2026 it's very likely that we'll elect a reactionary idiot again.
If we ban social media companies* we won't.
Privately owned social media is a tool of media manipulation. You can change the weights of some inscrutable algorithm and boost exposure to political ideologies that you want while no one can truly make a case against you, "it's just the algorithm" they say. There's no scenario where they should be allowed to exist in a sovereign country.
