Democrats raised hell when Elon Musk purchased Twitter for $44 billion.
They did not expect him to follow through with the acquisition.
Now Musk is in one battle that should absolutely terrify you.
Elon Musk serves as an example of what can happen when people cross the establishment.
Musk was once a darling of the Left then he started speaking out against pandemic restrictions and other economy-killing policies in blue states.
He then moved Tesla from California to Texas then bought Twitter to re-enshrine free speech as a principle on the platform.
The attacks against him have not stopped.
Censorship Industrial Complex
One disturbing scheme that Musk uncovered when he took over Twitter was massive collusion between the federal government and the social media platform.
The U.S. government had been working with the former executive team of Twitter to censor certain voices.
Now, the Supreme Court of Brazil is doing the same thing, demanding that Twitter silence certain accounts.
Musk has refused, which means the social media platform could be frozen out of Brazil, which would represent a major loss of revenue.
Independent Journalist Michael Shellenberger, who went to Brazil to report on the censorship crisis, explained in a video, “At any moment, Brazil’s Supreme Court could shut off all access to X/Twitter for the people of Brazil. It is not an exaggeration to say that Brazil is on the brink of dictatorship at the hands of a totalitarian Supreme Court Justice named Alexandre de Moraes. President Lula da Silva is participating in the push toward totalitarianism. Since taking office, Lula has massively increased government funding of the mainstream news media, most of which are encouraging increased censorship.”
Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro was essentially accused of doing what Lula actually is doing.
Tyranny in Brazil
Shellenberger continued, “What Lula and de Moraes are doing is an outrageous violation of Brazil’s constitution and the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights. At this moment, Brazil is not yet a dictatorship. It still has elections and the Brazilian people have other means at their disposal to confront authoritarianism. But the Federal Supreme Court and the Superior Electoral Court are directly interfer[ing] in those elections through censorship.”
Brazil could serve as a precursor for America.
Shellenberger added, “Three days ago I published the Twitter Files for Brazil. They show that Moraes has violated the Brazilian Constitution. Moraes illegally demanded that Twitter reveal private information about Twitter users who used hashtags he considered inappropriate. He demanded access to Twitter’s internal data, violating the platform’s policy. He censored, on his own initiative and without any respect for due process, posts on Twitter by parliamentarians from the Brazilian Congress. And Moraes tried to turn Twitter’s content moderation policies into a weapon against supporters of then-president Jair Bolsonaro. I say this as an independent and non-partisan journalist. I’m not a fan of either Bolsonaro or Trump. My political views are very moderate. But I know censorship when I see it.”
In response to the video, Musk said, “This is all accurate.”
BRAZIL IS ON THE BRINK

Brazil is providing the blueprint of what the Democrat establishment wants to do in America.
Prior to Musk’s purchase of Twitter, it was happening gradually.
Brazil is putting the pedal to the metal.
The establishment elites are losing control, and they are lashing out in bone-chilling ways.
