With no party support and few resources to finance his electoral campaign, Bolsonaro’s arrival in power represents one of the most emblematic events in Brazilian political history.
His ability to attract the spotlight and, with language that is at the same time vulgar and popular, respond in speech to various pent-up demands is something still misunderstood by society, in addition to stunning many political analysts.
The already weakened Brazilian public debate has languished. It took four hard years to get here.
In the midst of so much misinformation and ignorance propagated by the president until then, we lost the opportunity to more seriously discuss projects that could transform the country. Many debates here never got off the surface and, with Bolsonaro, they simply ceased to exist.
The media’s effort to convey the president’s unworthy conduct was not enough to change the opinion of many of his followers, who seem to live in a private world and tend to have a restricted view of society.
Despite this, it contributed to demonstrating the bad character of the citizen who still occupies the highest position in the executive and, thus, making him one of the most rejected presidents in history.
Bolsonaro is the antithesis of what he claims to be, that is, a good citizen. With the captain’s defeat imminent, we should not be complacent with a person who never had compassion for his countrymen and who skillfully used the most varied techniques of manipulation to reach and try to stay in power.
