Flávio Bolsonaro’s ‘corrupto’ debate gesture draws parodies before Brazil runoff

Far-right presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro prompted a wave of social media parodies after appearing at a primetime television debate with “corrupto,” meaning “corrupt,” written on his palm.

The gesture targeted his leftwing opponent, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, ahead of Brazil’s presidential election runoff. Rather than delivering the intended attack on his rival’s integrity, it became the subject of a viral meme, according to The Guardian.
