A lot of people don’t think about it much, they just think “it’s an alternative to the current person in power, maybe it will work for the economy!”, while overlooking the giant red flags. Same reason why Milei won in Argentina.
most people IRL that I know, voted for Bolsonaro, have the stated that their main reason is “Lula is corrupt, PT is corrupt”
from what I have seen online, there is A LOT of people who genuinely believe that the annulment of Lula’s corruption charge was as conspiracy against opposition to PT and Lula, and that the inprisoment of Jair Bolsonaro was a continuation of this conspiracy, and widely claim that the elections are a fraud

concerning but expected given that people get their news from zucc platforms.
