Bolsonaro, the son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, called into question a late-Sunday decision by a Lula-appointed Supreme Court justice that extended voting by two hours over alleged voter transport irregularities. He said he would ask for the result to be annulled.

The ⁠scale of Bolsonaro’s loss, with the senator trailing Lula by over 4 million votes, makes it unlikely his efforts to annul the vote will succeed, analysts said.

His petition is also undermined by the fact that his campaign also sought a voting extension due to heavy rains in the conservative-leaning south.

    Throw him in jail for this. I’m so fucking tired of the slow creep of whiny-baby shit among fascists that has gone unchecked. Enough is enough, don’t allow them to make this acceptable human behavior

      Truke. Like there’s this rot about how libs approach fascists.

      Their assumption is fascists are simply too powerful to oppose and if we did oppose them, they’ll win every time no problem. So just always make nice and try to placate them.

      And last I checked, I have never seen chuds appreciate when libs treat them with kid gloves and stop being fascists. They just make up a reason why they must do genocide, from “tumblr said mean things about men” in the early 2010s to “video games make me feel bad about being a racist sometimes!” today.

        I think the lib resistance to weilding power against fascists is more often along the lines of “if we put them in prison we’re just as bad as they are.”

        (This is also one reason why prison abolition is a bad take.)

          Maybe underlying it is the pendulum concept. They do not have a political or emotional adherence to any sort of final settling. Because they themselves admire and aspire to some parts of fascism so cannot internalize the goal of eradicating it. And under this loser brained framework, you must always consider that even though things are good now, eventually the tide will turn and the bad guys will come back and seek revenge.

          Abolish the current carceral system. As it is winding down, salvage infrastructure, implement a new system for crimes against the working class. Call this “the great replacement”.
