They basically posted that she had an affair with Whindersson Nunes. When she posted that it was fake, the owner of the page responded: oh come on, you can’t fool anyone with those acting skills. She ended up committing suicide due to all the harassment from the fake news. There’s a Xwitter thread explaining everything (English). https://x.com/oLucasWelter/status/1738347114306957514?s=20

    It’s not a left or right debate, it’s about civilization! The big issue needs to be resolved: platforms are not neutral, the algorithms reward the extreme, the grotesque, the destructive, the aberrant, the chaotic. And this is paid for! There are people profiting from the degeneration of society.

    – Silvio Almeida, Minister of Human Rights and Citizenship, Brazil
