Brazil's PT Defies Supreme Court Ban, Uses X for Municipal Elections Campaigning
Aug 31, 2024, 04:46 PM
Brazil's ruling party, PT, is reportedly continuing to use the social media platform X for political campaigning ahead of the upcoming municipal elections, despite a nationwide ban imposed by the Supreme Court. This ban, which applies to ordinary citizens, was supported by President Lula himself. However, his party's ongoing activity on the platform raises questions about the enforcement of the ban and whether political entities are being held to the same standards as the general public. The suspension order was issued by Minister Alexandre de Moraes, who has been criticized for his stringent measures. The situation has sparked debate over the rule of law and the implications of selective enforcement. Observers have suggested that the party should be fined for violating the ban.
