🇧🇷⚖️⚖️🚫👤❌ — The president of the Supreme Federal Court (STF), Minister Luís Roberto Barroso, said that the billionaire and owner of the social network 𝕏, Elon Musk, may be part of what he called the "international far-right movement"

"There is clearly a far-right articulation in the world. [Musk] may be a part of that [...] We are fighting powerful enemies of democracy, and a growing wave of authoritarian populism. People that think we exaggerated must know what kind of forces we had to fight. We are talking about people that prepared a coup d’état. We are talking about people that invaded [Brazil’s institutions] with fury.

Some people invoke freedom of speech when they are actually defending a business model based on engagement and, unfortunately, hate, sensationalism, conspiracy theories!"

💬 “For the truth, visit X.com!” Musk said in an email when contacted about Barroso’s comments.

➡️ Musk became a target of the Brazilian Supreme Court after refusing to comply with suspension orders against profiles on 𝕏 and for denouncing pressure from the judiciary and Brazilian politicians to censor non-left-aligned profiles on the social network.

⁉️ Barroso admitted it was difficult to know where to draw the line between freedom of expression and attacks on democracy, saying “it will always depend on the risks you are running”. But he said incitement to violence against the state was unacceptable.
