Neither do they, apparently.
Just curious, but did anyone bother reading through the tweets, watching the video, or trying to dig even slightly deeper into this? Or are we just forming opinions based on an article headline?
Because I actually tried to do more than read the headline, and here is what I discovered.
The only news I could find concerning the Brazilian Supreme Court concerning this came from this one website "CreativeDestructionMedia" who is pretty new. I've never heard of them, tried for a bit to find out who founded them, funds them, and works for them, but they're not very transparent.
I watched the roughly two minute video that shows about 2 dozen (maybe three dozen if we're being generous) native tribesmen walking around the deserted grounds of the STF (Brazil's Supreme Court) chanting a bit.
It's the day after Christmas, and the STF is not operating today. There are probably some janitors and some security guards there, but no one important. Again, it's the day after Christmas. It's closed.
Here's a link where you can find their holiday schedule:

So what exactly was the purpose of posting this non-newsworthy afternoon stroll a handful of Native Tribesmen in Brazil took of the deserted exterior of the closed STF?
Edited to add; went back to double check on some stuff and noticed the time stamps were for around 4pm yesterday. So, depending on what time zone that's posted under, that stuff happened yesterday, a Sunday, on Christmas. So, yeah, no one is there. 🙄
