Rafaella Justus responds to online harassment after first vote
Rafaella Justus, daughter of Roberto Justus and Ticiane Pinheiro, has addressed online harassment following her first time voting in Brazil. The backlash began after she posted a photo on Instagram wearing a white tank top featuring a small Brazilian flag.
Justus reported that internet users used the clothing to make assumptions about her political affiliations. In addition to political speculation, she stated she was subjected to personal attacks regarding her intelligence and physical appearance.
In her response, Justus clarified that she has never publicly declared a political stance. She questioned whether the reaction would have been as intense if the flag featured a different country and expressed dismay at the level of gratuitous hate directed at her through social media.
