Brazil's X ban is sending lots of people to Bluesky

People used it to organize an attempted coup against a democratically elected government and twitter is not cooperating with the investigation.

I’m pretty sure that’s the CIA’s job. Isn’t it because Brazil doesn’t have free speech so they have absurd “hate speech” laws similar to the ones that are backfiring in Scotland right now?

I don't see how that argument would leave coffee shops and other gathering places able to stay open during elections.

Coup not election and if they don't cooperate with an investigation of an attempt to subvert the election with violence, they might not.

Coup without firearms. How does that work? Are the people supposed to shout their lungs out until the government decides to step down cooperatively?

Someone from Brazil said they have no rule of law right now, they have a dictatorship. So Musk would be complying with a despot, not the law enforced by Brazilian representatives.

Bloodless coups are a thing.

I’m reading some more and the election interference happened under Jack Dorsey‘s Twitter not Elon Musk’s X. The Twitter employees involved were fired in the purge after Musk bought and assumed control of the website.

It was a protest. There was no coup attempt. A coup attempt would be the military launching the operation to seize power and failing. An actual coup would be the military trying it and succeeding.

They didn't try to seize power for themselves. They wanted the military to seize power so it could rule them instead of the elected president. There's a difference. They thought the military would be better rulers. That's just their political position.

There's simply no way you can convincingly claim that a bunch of people, many of them elderly, equipped with bibles and brazilian flags, tried to seize power in the brazilian capital. This country is pathetic but it can't possibly be so weak that it could suffer a coup by people like that.
