Enough of the hate cabinet, says Petra Costa

247 - Filmmaker Petra Costa, director of the documentary about the 2016 coup 'The Edge of Democracy', nominated for an Oscar in 2020, harshly criticized the so-called "hate cabinet," which aims to spread fake news to favor Jair Bolsonaro. 

"Fake news is not an opinion. Lies are not an opinion. Defamation is not an opinion. Threats are not an opinion. Hate speech is not an opinion. Incitement to violence is not an opinion. It is also not freedom of expression. Enough of distorting everything. Enough of lying. Enough of the hate cabinet. Enough," the filmmaker wrote on Twitter.
