Brazil’s Supreme Court is demanding Elon Musk censor “far right” accounts and the country has been arresting protesters in the wake of President Lula’s questionable victory over Bolsonaro in the 2022 election.

Is anyone else having Déjà vu?

Bolsonaro lost to Lula by only several points. Coincidentally, Lula was only allowed to run after the Supreme Court annulled corruption conviction. The irony comes from the fact that it is the same court that has demanded Musk censor accounts that they do not like. Lula also ceased the production of private media organizations.

According to Fox News:

In his decision, Justice Alexandre de Moraes noted that Musk on Saturday began waging a public "disinformation campaign" regarding the top court's actions, and that Musk continued the following day — most notably with comments that his social media company X would cease to comply with the court's orders to block certain accounts.

Musk will be investigated for alleged intentional criminal instrumentalization of X as part of an investigation into a network of people known as digital militias who allegedly spread defamatory fake news and threats against Supreme Court justices, according to the text of the decision. The new investigation will look into whether Musk engaged in obstruction, criminal organization and incitement.

"A guy gets a conviction overturned then tries to nationalize state-owned media, sets up a panel to combat fake news, which includes any content that is to the right of him, and then goes after Elon Musk and X," Crowder said. “Are you seeing the similarities?”

It gets even more eerily similar after thousands of Bolsonaro supporters were arrested by what the media calls an “insurrection.” The reporting was bizarrely identical to how the American media reported on Jan. 6.

Latin America is no stranger to a coup, including Brazil. And because of that, you would think that the media would know the difference between vandalism and an attempt to overthrow the government.

In Brazil, it was alleged that Musk was waging a disinformation campaign. Brazilian employees of X have also been threatened with arrest if they do not acquiesce to the government's demands.

"He is waging a disinformation campaign by simply providing a platform and allowing people to communicate on this platform," Crowder said. "That is what they consider a disinformation campaign."

Coincidentally, the same is happening in the United States.

"This is how fascism grows," Crowder said. "The only reason we do not have this in the United States is because of the check and balances we have and a couple of people standing in that line of fire."
