Lula defended the end of the 6x1 shift, with five days of work and two days off, and said that workers needed time to rest, take care of their families, and live with dignity. He stated that the change was a widespread desire of Brazilian society and that it would be necessary to make working conditions and hours more humane so that families could live more peacefully. Lula also said that when the Senate began to vote on the proposal, it would become clear who wanted a more dignified life for the population. #TrabalhoDigno #DireitosDosTrabalhadores #JornadaDeTrabalho (translated)

Bieber Novidade stated that Justin Bieber had defended, on different occasions, the respect and acceptance of LGBTQIA+ people. According to the publication, in 2011 the singer said that someone's homosexuality should not affect others. In 2018, after hearing a queer fan report the homophobia she faced, he stated that it was unacceptable, lamented the situation, and invited her to his church, saying she would be welcome. The publication contrasted these statements with remarks from Flávio Bolsonaro, who, according to the author, had said he would not be proud to have a gay son and would not feel comfortable seeing him present his boyfriend. Bieber Novidade also stated that Jair Bolsonaro had declared he would not be proud to have a gay son. The author noted that this difference should be remembered when LGBTQIA+ people are turned into political issues or their rights and dignity are treated as negotiable. He added that respect should not be a matter of left or right. #LGBTQIA #Respeito #DireitosHumanos (translated)

Cláudia Teixeira held Jorge Jesus responsible for Cristiano Ronaldo's situation. She wrote that the player had always made it clear that he would leave when he was no longer wanted and that, in her opinion, he had not asked for privileges, but respect. The author considered it disrespectful to call Ronaldo up just to leave him on the bench for 90 minutes and to make him warm up for a long time without putting him on the field. She said that the problem was not the player being on the bench, but being called up without a real intention to treat him with the respect he deserved, and stated that they tried to humiliate him. Teixeira wrote that Ronaldo had carried Portugal on his back for years and had given everything for the national team. She said that if she were in his place, she would not attend, considering that dignity was worth more than a call-up. She added that anyone who did not respect the player but continued to benefit from his name, image, and impact did not deserve his presence. #CristianoRonaldo #JorgeJesus #Respeito (translated)

Erika Hilton stated that the Senate would debate her proposal to end the 6x1 work schedule that week. She said that Flávio Bolsonaro and his allies had prevented the proposal from being voted on the previous month and that the work schedule would remain in place. Hilton also stated that the candidate, opposed to an additional day off for workers and their time with family, had 47% of the votes for the presidency and more power in his hands. She considered the week crucial for Brazil and urged voters of Flávio Bolsonaro to be warned that he could prevent the end of the schedule. #FimDaEscala6x1 #JustiçaParaOsTrabalhadores #BrasilAcorda (translated)

Lady Gaga wrote that the previous night in Brazilian politics had left many people tired, sad, and afraid of the future, but she urged them to resume mobilization after a period to process the result. She said that the runoff between Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro would be decisive and that the small difference in the first round made every vote important. The author advocated for conversations with undecided people, those who didn’t vote, or were distant from politics, willing to listen to their concerns and without treating them as enemies. She also stated that the election concerned the rights, freedom, and dignity of LGBTQIA+ people, minorities, women, Black people, and workers. She mentioned that she had made herself available to Lula’s team to help with the campaign and asked her readers to do the same. Quoting a phrase attributed to Gaga about the moral obligation to improve the world, she encouraged them to rest and return to the fight. #Eleição2022 #LutaPelaDemocracia #VotoConsciente (translated)

Isadora Brizola stated that her campaign mobilized more than 70,000 people and reached 83rd place among the candidacies for state deputy in São Paulo. According to her, the party's electoral quotient prevented the result from converting into a seat in the Alesp, but the votes were not in vain. Brizola said that the political project built was greater than an election and represented the recovery of a legacy and an idea of the country. She associated this tradition with education as a tool for emancipation, work as the foundation of dignity, and youth as a force for transformation. She thanked the people who supported her candidacy and stated that, although the election had ended, the struggle continued. She also mentioned Florestan Fernandes and concluded with the phrase: "The revolution will be educational." #Eleições2023 #Educação #LutaContraAsIdeiasDaForça (translated)

Figures like Lula are very rare. Not only because he is the first president from the working class and the greatest popular leader in our history, but for everything he represents and for all the transformation he brought to this country. There is a Brazil before Lula and a Brazil after. Those who know this country, those who know history, know what I am talking about. I, from the Northeast, son of a bricklayer, living in a boarding house in my childhood, was doomed to repeat the sad trajectory of all those who preceded me. But in the middle of the way, there was Lula. And with him came the chance to become the first in my family to attend university. With him came the possibility for my family, who worked hard their whole lives and never achieved anything because the country didn’t provide opportunities, to ascend socially. With him came the own house, our first car, our first plane trip, our first international trip, our second apartment. This man changed my life. Changed the lives of tens of millions. Brought dignity, hope, and the right to dream for the workers of our country. I always say that Lula's contribution to Brazil is already made. He has already done much more than what is expected of a single man. A boy from the countryside who came out of misery, shining shoes in the streets, to become the reorganizer of the trade union movement, to lead the fight against the dictatorship, to become the president who took the country out of the hunger map and ended the scourge of drought. Lula is 80 years old. He should be resting. That baton should have been passed to us on the left a long time ago. But we didn't do it. And there he is again, at 80 years old, trying to save this country once more. An extraordinary figure, who owes nothing to the greatest fighters of the popular classes in recent centuries. I respect those who will vote for Hertz, Samara, Edmilson Costa. But frankly? I lament those who will miss the opportunity to vote, for the last time, for a giant of history of Lula's magnitude. The radical left will still recognize the greatness of this man. Probably only after he is no longer among us – as usually happens, by the way. But I am sure that the realization will eventually come. #Lula #História #JustiçaSocial (translated)

The torn flag of Brazil is a powerful metaphor for the moment we are living in, it is the perfect image of the disregard and decay of the country. When the main symbol of the Republic is left to deteriorate, it reveals an alarming lack of responsibility, respect, and commitment to the Nation itself‼️ #Brasil #metáfora #dignidade (translated)
