A false claim circulating on social media attributes a statement to Brazilian footballer Neymar asserting that those who do not vote for Jair Bolsonaro are communists. Fact-checking organization Fast Check has debunked the claim, labeling it as false. Their investigation analyzed Neymar’s official social media accounts and press records, finding no evidence he ever made the statement. The quote, "Whoever doesn't vote for Bolsonaro is a communist," is entirely fabricated and has been widely shared online. This highlights the ongoing issue of misinformation during the election period. Neymar has not publicly addressed the false claim directly, but the fact-check serves as a clear refutation. The spread of such disinformation can influence public opinion and potentially impact the election.
