STF conduct crisis: court silence on internal dysfunction threatens Brazilian democracy

An opinion piece in The Intercept Brasil argues that internal disputes, monocratic decisions, and excessive empowerment have made Brazil's Supreme Federal Court (STF) dysfunctional, and that its silence amid this crisis poses a greater risk to democracy than external attacks. The piece claims attempts to destroy the court serve authoritarian interests, but this is an editorial viewpoint, not a confirmed factual development. The significance lies in the ongoing political debate over judicial conduct in Brazil.
