The World Just Took A Giant Leap Toward Totalitarianism

Since 2018, Brazil has been a laboratory for the censorship that US, European, and other Western leaders want

The world took a giant leap forward into totalitarianism yesterday as the Brazilian government blocked X, formerly Twitter, and threatened to fine its citizens $8,900 per day if they use it. Brazil, the world's sixth largest nation by population, now joins North Korea, China, and Iran in the list of countries that have banned X. It is the 12th largest economy in the world and the superpower of the global South. It doesn’t matter whether or not you care about Brazil. Its totalitarianism is at risk of spreading around the world. 

Yet neither President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, nor anyone else in the US government has formally denounced the censorship. That’s probably because Biden, Harris, and Democrats not only support the censorship but have also been directly funding it.
