Last night Flávio Bolsonaro won Brazil's first round, promising to ‘resgatar a democracia’, rescue democracy 🇧🇷 His campaign uses the word democracy to defend his father, jailed for plotting to overturn the 2022 election ⬛️ Here is how the campaign takes over the language of rights ⤵️

Photo taken from above of a large crowd packed into an arcaded stone courtyard in São Paulo, Brazil, at a pro-democracy gathering on 11 August 2022. Hundreds of people stand shoulder to shoulder, filling the courtyard up to the arches. Many hold up phones, and photographers crowd near the front. A white banner across the upper storey reads 'DITADURA NUNCA MAIS', meaning 'Dictatorship never again'. Two more banners hang on the side walls, partly out of frame: one ends with 'JAMAIS ACONTEÇA' ('never happen') and the other begins 'PARA QUE NÃO' ('so that it does not'). In the foreground, on a dark stage, a man in a dark suit reads from a lectern with glass panels. Beside him are a person in a bright yellow jacket and a woman in white. At the time, President Jair Bolsonaro had hinted that he might not respect the result of the October 2022 election.
