The mobilization of the progressive field for thesecond round is positively expanding on social media, but the strategy is also to talk, points out Dr. Larissa Peixoto Gomes, a political science researcher at the University of Edinburgh.
"Talking is essential, talking to someone you know: 'I don't like either of them'. Okay, you don't like either of them, but one wants to punch you in the face and the other wants to shake your hand. You don't like them getting too close, but you prefer a punch in the face or a handshake. I've seen many of these analogies being made and I think it's about working on what you can say and who your audience is," said Gomes, in an interview withConexão BdF 1st editionfromRádio Brasil de Fato.
The political scientist recalled that there is a certain lethargy, caused by the massification of a political discourse. “People become lazy to talk and there is also the difficulty of talking to people who are part of this Bolsonaro sect.”
Another point that should be discussed is the proposal ofchanging the Constitution that Flávio Bolsonaro began to considerFlavio's base does not understand the Constitution. They do not know the protection that the Brazilian Constitution offers. They do not know how the Brazilian Constitution is viewed, for example, abroad. The 1988 Constitution is precious. The idea that, for example, transportation is a constitutional right, human rights, what are the guarantees in the fundamental clauses. What the Constitution represents for education, for the SUS, the popular pharmacy, which is something that many Brazilians use, all of this is at risk.
This discourse may not have an effect on part of the loyal Bolsonaro electorate, who will claim it is fake news. Therefore, they are betting on the abstaining electorate. "We need to reach the abstaining, the nulls, the people who did not vote, the people of [Augusto] Cury, the people of Renan Santos in order to speak."
