Unbased defamation, threats, and spread disinformation against elections and candidates, specially during elections always was illegal and subject to removal of content in Brazil. This even benefited Bolsonaro, when a person who posted a threat against him was criminally prosecuted and when the justice forbade merchandising material for a punk rock show because it referenced the fact that he was stabbed, and the justice considered incitation to violence.
Again: if you say that someone was jailed just because posted "Lula is socialist", which is not even an offensive thing, you are the one who should prove, as nobody, presented any proof about this. But probably it was someone involved in crime or investigation that the far right is using to defend the ridiculous thesis of "brazilian dictatorship". Moreover, it is not Lula, but the justice court that ordered the removal. Most of the court is composed by the same judges that ordered Lula to be imprisoned in the past and rejected several of his appeals to be freed.
