Seems the U.S. election wasn't the only election Twitter saw fit to meddle in.
Did Twitter get involved in another election? Maybe yes, according to Mr. Musk. This is the story:
Twitter owner Elon Musk said on Saturday he thought it was "possible" that personnel at the social media firm gave preference to left-wing candidates during Brazil's election this year, without providing evidence.
Musk completed his acquisition of Twitter on Oct. 27, just days before Brazil's presidential second round runoff vote, when far-right incumbent Jair Bolsonaro was defeated by leftist Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
"I've seen a lot of concerning tweets about the recent Brazil election," Musk wrote on Twitter when asked by a user about elections possibly "handled" by the company's previous management.
"If those tweets are accurate, it's possible that Twitter personnel gave preference to left wing candidates," added the billionaire.
Bolsonaro earlier this year hosted Musk at a meeting in the Brazilian state of Sao Paulo, when he called the U.S. billionaire's takeover of Twitter a "breath of hope" and dubbed him a "legend of liberty".
We don't know for sure, but I wouldn't be shocked.
First, the left hated Brazil's sitting President Jair Bolsonaro. He was often referred to as the Trump of Brazil, or "Tropical Trump." We do know that Nikolas Ferreira, a Bolsonaro ally, had his account suspended for questioning the election results. Does that sound familiar?

The Brazilian military may have something to say about this.
Bolsanaro is “far right” but Lula da Silva is just a “Leftist”?
This guy calls himself a consrvative author?
If you click on the article you can see that that part of his article is a quote from a left-leaning news source.

Notice how its is always the “far-right” while we almost never see “far-left”?
1. @elonmusk , Your new company @Twitter has many ex FBI/CIA agents in high ranks. Should probably do a little housecleaning.

A lot of fbi and intelligence people are getting outed. Saw Tom fitton catch a former DOD Patrick conlon working on Twitter election team. Conlin scrubbed his linked in page
That “far right” reference was from a US News article that the author excerpted in his article. Considering the source of the original article it is not surprising that there is bias.
I read an article here , that Dominion Tech’s along with the cyber team from either , I don’t remember which, D.O.S. or D.H.S. went to Brazil to fortify their elections.
Elections have been tampered with in every country these machines are used.
It’s a global coup company as far as I’m concerned.
There’s a good readon France hand counts their votes, no machines.
Either I read it here or at

To a leftwing communist/socialist/marxist, a Constitutional patriot is to their FAR, FAR RIGHT.

The left has been in a verbal war with us for years. It has been effective. For some reason, we conservatives, do not employ any strategy at all.
I noticed that Trump was good at it...he came out with calling the media “Fake News.” Very effective and it infuriated them. It seems that conservatives have now dropped it and have gone back to calling the media the “mainstream media.”
sigh
Yup typical leftist rhetoric. They think they are mainstream so there can be no one further to the left than them, therefore anyone to the right of Stalin is “far right”.
Besides, how else can you turn the masses against someone unless you portray them as radical and extremist?
“Bolsanaro is “far right” but Lula da Silva is just a “Leftist”? This guy calls himself a consrvative author?
Yeah, that jumped out at me, too. I hope American Thinker doesn’t go the way of National Review.
There is nothing “far right” about Bolsonaro. He is a Christian, and pro-Brazil. That’s all.
“Notice how its is always the “far-right” while we almost never see “far-left”?”
Exactly.
Twitter muddled at Deep State’s instruction.
Twitter was a tool, not the wielder.
Ping: Post #6.
I use the term LEFTIST EXTREMIST.
WAYS.
TRY IT.
The Twitter election “fortification” operation was international, affecting America only because America will be the jewel in the crown of the New World Order should our enemies prevail.
In late October there was an article in one of the Irish papers about impending layoffs at Twitter Ireland threatening the “security” of the upcoming US elections.
Think about that. The information suppression and influence operation may have had an address in Dublin. And London. And Canberra. And Ottawa. And Wellington.
The people who set this up have no country. And their interests span the globe.
