Bolsonaro is a conservative with populist ideas and has said many terrible things in the past. It's true that he isn't a good option, but it's easy to understand why he won. The liberal media will obviously reverberate the atrocities said by Bolsonaro but will conveniently forget why Haddad was an even shittier option.
Haddad, the PT candidate for the presidency responds to 32 lawsuits, which put him as one of the champions of the record of crimes committed in public life. In the long run, Haddad, already charged in two lawsuits, is accused of receiving cash from two of the condemned contractors in Operation Lava Jato, charged with crimes of administrative improbity, suspected of oversupply of works and services, accused of misusing resources and even from the illegal application of public money. Not enough of his direct involvement in numerous irregularities, he surrounded himself in the campaign for the presidency, led by Lula (who is in prison for corruption), of advisers and coordinators who were also indicted for crimes in Petrolão (huge political scandal), giving concrete indications that the party would reactivate the corruption machine oiled during the 13 years of PT in power.

Not only that, but Haddad was one of the worst mayors of São Paulo history with only 15% of approval:
During his term as Brazilian minister of education, the unified national exam for entering in Universities (ENEM) was frauded several times:

Brazilian students protests against the frauds:
Education isn't a circus
Brazil chose a politician of the far right instead of a corrupt and proven incompetent leftist politician. It also helps Bolsonaro that Brazil has an homicidal rate of 60.000 deaths per year, and PT did nothing to stop that rate to increase for many years. Public security is also something that played a big role in his election.
If there is a good thing, is that Bolsonaro already said he is commited to the Brazilian Constitution and will respect democracy and minorities (which is something that should be obvious, but well, the national and international press wants to make the devil out of him). All in all, I think it will be just like a Trump presidency and in the end, we'll be able to survive.
