> What other institutions (or democratic tools) should have acted to halt the extremist anti-democratic movement lead by Bolsonaro?

I find the notion of fighting extremism with more extremism dubious. The legitimacy of the government derives from the consent of the people. If the people voted for Bolsonaro and are not opposing his actions, the judiciary will not be able to stop the slide, their extreme actions only give him fuel.
