Considering this is Latin America, everyone involved in politics has done something that would be unprecedentedly horrific in the West, and those who haven’t are likely just starting out their political career

Nothing attracts international attention like a lopsided election. Make it look real, 53% to 47%, somewhere in that neighborhood. Mix it up a little. Slip some of your people into the opposition parties, then let one of them get elected. When they turn out to be a do-nothing, you win the next one. If there's a term limit in place, get your family elected. There are so many ways to do this that don't look like you're fixing the election.
The thing is, though, is that without an international or internal response to such blatant authoritarianism, there's no reason for anti-democratic regimes to make their "elections" look legitimate.
Which, of course, ends up being doubly hilarious in Bolivia's case since the people screaming most loudly about election fraud are anti-democratic assholes who are now arresting the electoral committee after couping Evo Morales.

Even if it was fraud, Morales is one of the few good leaders in the region, so I wouldn’t be too mad about that

Why is a fascist supporting a left wing leader? Shouldn't you be supporting class """"collaborationist"""" american backed governments or something?

1. The one dimensional political spectrum is outdated, and has been ever since Mussolini was a thing
2. He may not like the tag of “fascist,” but Morales is governing as close to the Fascist Manifesto as people like Kagame, a socialist market ruled by a strong nationalists who discourages division within a country

1. You believe the third position is a thing that exists?
2. lol what
Morales hasn't waged class warfare on workers, he's not backed by the biggest capitalists. He's being overthrown by capitalists right now. Every fascist movement that has ever risen to power has done so with the backing of the biggest capitalists and has worked in their interests.

A military coup would actually have to exist. Aside from left-wing politicians instinctively backing Morales, most people see it as discontent with the length of his tenure coming to a head.

Classical Fascism was built on third positionism, and I have no idea where you get the “wage class warfare against workers” part from. Morales is a nationalist, and his entire term is based on ending division, both racial and political, within Venezuela

Fuck them, imprison them.
Also Imprison Bolsonaro-he's a criminal against humanity.
He's also a dictator-in-waiting, he is evil.
Bolivia was thriving before this, this is disgusting.

The Bolivian government has dragged its entire population through instability, hilariously bad economic decisions, and a myriad of other problems that hurt the populace. When Chile had a right-wing coup, it was, for all practical intents and purposes, harmless. 3,000 dead versus the millions that fell in equivalent left-wing regimes. A right-wing coup in Bolivia, that would mirror Chile in a transition to democracy, could be the best thing that ever happened to Bolivia.

This seems to suggest Morales should be in power forever, as long as he supplies a good economy and society. Not very democratic.
