    What evidence do they have? Also a court demanding Meta prove the negative is funny.

    Nao Se Meta, that's clever

      It means "Don't get involved" in Brazilian Portuguese.

      Roughly translates to “stay out of it?”

    People should look up the North American Technate, because we're living in it. Its been a mission of techno-fascist for a couple decades, they're finally succeeding. They will get rid of democracy altogether

    (they may have already, they can basically do mind control with recommendations algorithms and get swaths of people to do whatever they want).

      Elon Musk’s grandfather, Joshua Haldeman, was a leader of that movement in Canada.

      Fun read: https://www.cbc.ca/newsinteractives/features/joshua-haldeman...

        From that article: "Haldeman died in a plane crash in 1974, when he was 72 years old. His grandson, Elon Musk, was just three."

      A large minority of people cannot cope with losing elections. Shadowy forces are behind every loss. Ironically, it's this attitude that undermines democracy. More than Facebook at any rate...

      I mean, if they have secret mind control powers that they've hid from the rest of the world for years, it seems kinda pointless to try and oppose them?

      At that point, they've already won, neh?

      (this is mostly to object that hyperbolic phrases like "basically mind control" don't do your argument any favor)

        > secret mind control powers

        Secret? Its called "X" and Facebook.

    Meta has interfered with elections before, we know the Trump admin wants Bolsonaro Jr in power, and the US establishment has supported anti-socialism in Brazil in the past. (The CIA agitated against Lula under Reagan, for example)

    Is it overly conspiratorial to think the Meta is doing what they're accused of on behalf of the US?

      Conspiracies are hidden. It's a confirmed fact that they banned his account during the election. This is no conspiracy - it's out in the open.

        A conspiracy is just people talking to each other about a crime. It doesn’t have to be hidden. Conspiracies can be in the open.

        By this logic, old Twitter interfered with US elections by banning Trump.

          > Twitter interfered with US elections by banning Trump.

          You mean when Twitter "permanently" banned Trump in January of 2021, after the 2020 election (which he lost)? Which election do you suppose that interfered with?

      Not at all. We all know it. There's just literally nothing we can do. The whole world is an US dictatorship

      • catlikesshrimp 4 minutes ago
        Or russian dictatorship or chinese dictatorship? I would still pick US, If I could choose.

      Trump should focus on America. In 15 days, he's going to wish he didn't.
      • cute_boi 25 minutes ago
        Hopefully, trump loses so badly republican will get some sense.
        • hackyhacky 21 minutes ago
          It doesn't matter whether Republicans lose the election or not. Trump will just ignore/dismiss the election results, or ignore/dismiss Congress, as he did has done for the last two years.

      It would be conspiratorial to not think that.
