Trump, Meta, Twitter/X failed to swing the election in Brazil. It is a shame that the US administration and their oligarchs even tried.

@jwildeboer a broader view is that both candidates are deeply flawed and Brazil likely will not improve over the next term. Still I agree with you that meddling in foreign elections is reprehensible.
@jwildeboer we won baby, Brazil won, democracy won. F meta, f Trump
@jwildeboer there was a fight... And we use their tools...
it was unfortunate that we were too slow to react, and that the leaders of the reaction used the imperial, colonial digital platforms, instead of using the opportunity to pull people out of them. it's understandable that the short-term urgency made the long-term plan less appealing. but next time the imperial platforms will be prepared. so we'd better be as well.
