Bolsonarista support for the complementary bill that imposes a ceiling on ICMS on fuel, approved by the Senate this Monday (13), managed to occupy considerable space in the debate on social networks.
Monitoring by .Map, a data and media analysis agency, in the period from June 1st to 13th, points out that the matter reached almost 6% of the demonstrations among economic themes, almost 75% of them as a sign of support.
Netizens praised Bolsonaro for the measure and criticized the PT for not voting in favor, according to Map. The vote is considered a victory for the government, which has waged war with the states, attributing to them the responsibility for the increase in fuel prices.
On the other hand, the deceleration of the IPCA in May was not able to minimize the criticisms of internet users about inflation, which remains in the lead of the most commented economic themes in the networks, with almost 18% of participation, according to the monitoring, which works with a qualitative evaluation of a sample in a universe of 1.4 million posts on Facebook and Twitter.
Among the economic issues, discontent in relation to personal finances gains repercussion, with almost 26% of participation.
