@stilleaworkinprogress: History in the making: mom explains everything you need to know about the elections in Brazil, and the lesson America needs to learn from this 💙 Mom breaks down the Brazil election 2026: Lula lost the first round to Flávio Bolsonaro, son of former president Jair Bolsonaro, then came back to win the Oct. 25 runoff 51.8% to 48.2% — the first candidate since 1989 to win Brazil's presidency after finishing second in the first round. After Jair Bolsonaro lost in 2022, claimed the election was stolen, and staged a coup attempt, Brazil didn't just move on. The movement adapted, changed faces, and sent his son back out front. That's the lesson for the U.S.: cutting off one leader doesn't end a political movement. It just adapts. #BrazilElection #midterms #creatorsearchinsights #beingpoliticallyeducated

We are still so impacted with the results of election in Brazil. As a Brazilian, I couldn’t be more proud! ❤️Don’t give up, it’s possible. Talk, share information, explain in different ways so everyone can understand!

Tav :

every single vote counts! here in Brasil it was a mud fight, look for the videos, even the elder asked their grandkids to take them in their arms to the ballot to vote

thaís prado :

we campaign HARD on social media, everyone, influencer or not.

Lua 🌙 :

here from brazil: organize unite fight back

Meg :

a lot more senior citizens turned out in the runoff. they ran a large campaign reminding seniors that they could use their vote slip as proof for social security and could avoid going to the social security office and could travel without worry of needing to get out again as they identified that a lot of seniors skipped voting in the first election

DON'T PANIC. ORGANISE. ⭐️✨️

LTracz :

Companheira, THE most important lesson from Brasil is that it is not just about voting, but especially about organizing. We only pulled out this one because I'm three weeks we took over the internet and social media from the far-right and we took over the streets. We made us be seen. That's the important part. Then on the day of the voting, there was another battle: we voted, everyone, but the teens and young ones and the old ones, they made the BIG difference!

Heitor Priquito :

we organize in a historic way. Our deputy, Janones, created a online channel that had 10 million people who organized and maked people go to the street, help people who couldnt vote, vote, and talking to old people who didnt vote in the first round, vote! That was historical, that was amazing. And many people changed they mind about Flavio because we exposed who he was.

Mike Trindade :

YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

Kalberty Santos :

Nos chamaram de minoria por aqui… estávamos desorganizados, nos juntamos e mostramos que ainda éramos maiores, a democracia venceu (e um dia o outro lado vai nos agradecer) ❤️

luh pariz :

Don't panic, reorganize. If we did it, you can too! 🇧🇷

Artemis 🇦🇺 :

Yes!!! Talk to everyone. Mobilise. Organise. Talk to your primary school friend. Every vote counts

YoyoEds :

Visited Brazil in 2024. One of our guides was absolutely amazed at the fact of the US citizens had done nothing about Trump and their attempted coup. As a matter of fact, everyone on our tour, people from all over the world, were in disbelief.

Carolina Silveira :

And don't forget that Meta tried to boycott our elections by blocking some of Lula's videos and even hiding his insta on the research bar. Janones organized this channel and made people talk to each other, go to the streets and go around the social media. We had this slogan "there are no algorithms on the streets". We need to remember that politicians WORK for us and deifying them is one of the first signs of the rising fascism.
