Brazil could be the next China, but everytime we get supressed. We need a revolution
Central and South America are going to have to get together and form a group to defend themselves from U.S. interference. The U.S. has been interfering in their democracy for far too long. This caused brutal regime to take power and caused death and suffering. It has to stop.
Zuckerberg and Musk took care of it, every left-wing candidate campaign here in Brazil was packed with people and the right-wing barely had any people, but in the election 24 out of 27 governors, 50 out of 55 senators, and 330 out of 390 congress members elected were far-right.... NONE of what is happening in the country reaches people because the algorithms prevent it, if you tell them how they are all directly linked to militias that murder political opposition, how they want to remove environmental protection, want to remove even more workers' rights that they did last time, want to privatize even the beaches, and all of them and their churches and banks are directly connected to a trillion dollar corruption scandal revealed recently, they think you are insane because they are checking Instagram and Whatsapp and Youtube and Tiktok 24/7 and they never saw any of this, their candidates just want to save Jesus and the family
💯 percent. And this shit is happening everywhere. They need to be banned.

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
