Vinicios Betiol stated that platforms like X and Meta manipulated the reach of candidates during the elections in Brazil and argued that the issue should be debated. According to him, left-wing candidates' profiles began receiving between 5% and 10% of their previous reach, while Nikolas Ferreira's profile was boosted. Betiol said that his profile on X used to reach 70 million people per month, but it fell to about 1 million during the election period. He also claimed that Nikolas had a greater reach than major international stars, despite electoral laws prohibiting recommendations to non-followers. Regarding his own campaign, Betiol stated that he encountered people on the streets who followed him, but many did not know he was a candidate because big techs had stopped distributing his posts. He attributed Nikolas's promotion by Meta to the fact that the deputy was the most voted and elected his own bench, whose members he considered mostly unprepared. Betiol accused the TSE of not recognizing the seriousness of the problem and said that democracy was at risk. He also claimed that his reach was starting to recover, that he had already filed a lawsuit with the Electoral Court, and that he intended to continue the dispute after the elections. According to him, he would continue addressing the issue even without receiving sufficient attention from a large part of the left. #Eleições2023 #Democracia #RedesSociais (translated)

Jones Manoel stated that a technical note prepared by the Institute of Functional Finances for Development (IFFD) estimated the fiscal and social impacts of the adjustment measures announced by Flávio Bolsonaro's economic team. The projections for the next 10 and 20 years indicated a cumulative reduction of R$ 11 trillion, by 2046 and at today's prices, in spending on health, education, retirement, and BPC, compared to the current rules. Regarding the SUS, Manoel stated that, based on parameters from international scientific literature on the relationship between public spending on health and mortality, the study estimated 742,000 additional deaths that could be avoided in twenty years. According to him, the number could reach 1.14 million in the scenarios with the greatest impact. Manoel also said that, even with the measures, the announced adjustment target of 2% of GDP would not be achieved by 2034. He shared the note to receive criticism and contributions to the debate. https://t.co/iToXaFiANs #Finanças #Saúde #Economia (translated)

The outlet wrote that about 50 people had been arrested, half of whom were minors, and that around twenty had been injured, including several officers. It also reported looted stores, particularly a Foot Locker outlet, broken shop windows, and burned urban furniture. Residents and tourists, according to Ultimora.net, were trapped in local businesses and the Duomo metro station, which was closed during the clashes. #Milano #Proteste #Violenza (translated)

A young Finnish person wrote that a French woman, whom he described as leftist, had joined student protests and was horrified when the people with her started, according to him, to loot stores. According to the writer, the woman had tried to get them to stop, but she was pushed aside and told to be silent. The writer stated that the crowd had emptied the store while the sellers watched the events. He described the story as a metaphor for the situation in France in 2026: in his opinion, the left had begun to understand what kind of forces it had unleashed, but could no longer influence the course of events. The writer added that neither the merchants nor the people could do anything about it either. https://t.co/97cqEqBkI7 #Ranska #mielenosoitus #yhteiskunta (translated)

Didier Maïsto believed that the police unions bore a heavy responsibility. He criticized them for defending police misconduct on television and for supporting Emmanuel Macron and his governments. According to him, during the Yellow Vests movement, the unions should have called on the police to lower their shields and not to strike people who were struggling to make a living from their work. Maïsto also stated that repression did not solve political problems and that the police had, in turn, become victims of the executive. He called on their unions to defend them by refusing to provide coverage for the protests, believing that this decision would hasten the end of "Macronism" and gain the support of the people. #Syndicats #Police #GiletsJaunes (translated)
