Rodrigo Constantino stated that the PT campaign had vetoed the use of an aerial counting method with artificial intelligence at Lula's event the previous week, when the party mentioned "one million". He contrasted this alleged lack of transparency with the actions of the right and said that Flávio used a platform to defend the idea of "turning the sad page of the PT", one week before the second round, on 10/25. Constantino assessed that the number of 72 thousand was false and attributed the difference between the events to the mobilization he described as organic, without artists paid by the state or a ban on drones. He also stated that anti-PT sentiment led ordinary people to the streets, rather than professional activists, and said that the country needed to rid itself of lulism and what he called toga activism. #Política #Eleições2023 #Brasil (translated)

GFrei.News referred to democracy as a facade for corruption and criticized that citizens could only vote for the Bundestag every four years and for state parliaments every five years. Regardless of the election results, parties declared themselves winners and claimed a mandate to govern, the author wrote. Subsequently, they would use parliamentary procedures and loopholes to gain power and circumvent the will of the voters. GFrei.News accused politicians from established parties of profiting from high salaries, expensive hotels, chauffeurs, and private flights after taking office, and leading a taxpayer-funded life like super-rich individuals. The author also mentioned secure pensions after just a few years in office, appearances on talk shows and company visits, as well as a lack of attention in parliamentary debates. Laws would be passed behind closed doors with a government majority; committees and debates were merely a stage act for the cameras, GFrei.News claimed. The political leadership had made the state prey and was failing its mandate to the populace, the author wrote. He called for a shift to direct democracy, where citizens could stop harmful laws and remove politicians before the end of their terms. Finally, GFrei.News criticized that leaving out a tie with a suit was careless. https://t.co/FDN07LHPIX #Demokratie #Politik #Korruption (translated)
