BREAKING: Bolsonaro supporters storm Brazil National Congress
Hundreds of people appear to have overcome security and stormed the National Congress building. Bolsonaro backers have refused to accept leftist Lula's election victory.
Tumblr media
Supporters of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro stormed the National Congress building in Brasilia on Sunday.
According to news agency LUSA, hundreds of people invaded the building, calling for military intervention to overthrow President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. Lula was inaugurated one week ago. 
LUSA said the group crossed a police barrier and climbed the ramp that gives access to the roof of the Chamber of Deputies and Senate buildings.

Okay, serious topic rn, Brazil is on the verge of a coup d'état. Federal highway police are blocking main highways in different places, causing traffic trying to stop people from voting on the opposition (Lula). People on the northeast are having extra trouble with the roadblocks and in some cities the public transport got the free pass suspended (there's a law that made public transport free for the election day), in other cities buses won't stop to let electors board in.
Indigenous people also facing trouble getting to the election place.
This is outrageous and absurd, pls spread the word and make this whole situation known. We've faced a coup and dictatorship before. NEVER again.
Democracy is the only way and this is a global fight.
edit: for information in English, I suggest Tom Philips
edit2: read the tags, specially the one by @happyfairyskeleton she contextualised the reason why those are the targets and why this is worrying!

Elections come and go but the knowledge you acquire when you discover who are the people in your life that support hate speech is forever

Guys I think I'm living a coup.
It's voting day here in Brazil. Right now it's 16:05, people can only vote until 17:00.
And all day the police has been stopping people from the northeast from voting. Buses that were supposed to be free aren't coming. People can't go vote. Most of the affected are black, brown and indigenous
The northeast holds a large percentage of left wing voters. We had been counting on them to carry us through this election.
I'm queer, afab, brown and I study in a public university. The government hates me. I'm genuinely scared of what might happen to me if bolsonaro is allowed to remain in office. These four years he has been praising the military dictatorship, saying that 'it didn't kill enough people', and now the military police is stopping people from the region with his largest opposition from voting.
You cannot tell me this isn't an attempt at a coup. Please talk about this. Tweet "deixem o nordeste votar". With enough pressure, they may extend the voting time. Please, I'm begging you

GENOCIDAL FASCISTS. i don’t know how else to stress how desperately sad and tragic it is to be brazilian tonight. they won. they actually fucking won again. i mean. lula had the majority of votes, it was like over a 5 million difference, so there will be a second round for presidents, but they still won PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING ELSE. please please pay attention to what’s going on in brazil for the next 28 days. we’re desperate. we’re dying. people are being brutally murdered because of bolsonaro’s fanatics. there are people who have been stabbed to death for over 70 times. a pregnant woman was assaulted and beaten in the middle of the fucking STREETS. it’s so ugly already and it’s only gonna get worse for us. please pray for brazil yall.

BREAKING: Brazil court votes to bar Bolsonaro from running for office
Tumblr media
Brazil’s top elections court voted Friday to bar Jair Bolsonaro from running for office for eight years — a period that covers the next presidential election — for making what members of the panel said were claims he knew to be false about the integrity of the country’s voting systems.
As president, the “Trump of the Tropics” repeatedly asserted without evidence that the voting systems in Latin America’s largest country were vulnerable to fraud. With the vote of Judge Cármen Lúcia Friday afternoon, the seven-member Superior Electoral Court reached a majority to convict the right-wing populist of abuse of power for undermining faith in the country’s young democracy.
The ruling, if it survives a planned Supreme Court appeal, means Bolsonaro, 68, won’t be able to run for president until the 2030 election, when he’ll be 75. It’s the first time in the court’s 90-year history that it has applied the ban to a former president.
Bolsonaro, aides and allies anticipated the result.

galera eu sei que estou pessimista aqui mas o que não me entra na cabeça de jeito NENHUM é como, em pleno 2022, mais de 40 MILHÕES de pessoas estão saindo na rua, vendo gente implorar por comida, e achando que ta tudo bem votar nesse governo e aliados de novo
dois anos de pandemia, 600 mil mortos, escândalo de corrupção em tudo que é canto, desmonte de todas as estruturas públicas
Quem viu QUATRO ANOS disso e ainda vota nesses caras? Como conseguem? Como que é tanta gente? 
Tem como reabilitar isso? Tem como mudar? 
Eu já perdi as esperanças

Our democracy is at stakes!!
I am sorry for the spam, but if you’re reading this I ask again to please spread it!! The world needs to know about this.
Please HELP!! Even if you’re not from Brazil we need to spread this message as far as possible!!

Edit: Guys, the elections are practically finished and just wanted to say that despite everything, LULA WON!!!! They couldn’t stop us. Also thank you so much for everyone who tried to help.
