UNITA's parallel vote count shows MPLA with a slight lead. The problem is that UNITA only has access to 39% of the results. Why doesn't CNE release the results at the level of the polling station? #AngolaElections2022

We all know that under the ownership of far-right conspiracy propagandist Elon Musk, X has become a cesspool of far-right lies and disinformation. It is Musk's way of helping the loathsome piece of shit destroy democracy and become dictator. Here is the truth about FEMA. 😳👇
