Roberto Motta questioned why the free performance of a famous musician in support of a politician would not be considered an abuse of economic power, since, according to him, it would be equivalent to offering each attending voter the value of a ticket. He stated that the reason would be the fact that the artists are left-wing. #Música #Política #Arte (translated)

Piotr Kusznieruk accused Joanna Makosa of portraying Piotr as an attacker using a knife, although — as he wrote — such an attack has not been confirmed. He urged her to reveal the wires she claimed to rely on and demanded clarification on whether there was a lack of accuracy or a conscious spreading of false information. He deemed that uncritically basing a serious accusation on a single source indicated a lack of journalistic skill. Kusznieruk wrote that depicting Piotr as a "knife-wielder" could expose him and his family to hostility. He emphasized that threats against anyone were unacceptable, but they did not absolve one from responsibility for their own words. He demanded a clear correction on TVP and public apologies, assessing that attributing it to a mistake was insufficient. He also criticized the funding of public television with taxpayers' money and noted that Piotr and his family were likely not laughing. #dziennikarstwo #media #społeczeństwo (translated)

There is a reason why Russia tried to interfere in the Brexit vote: they knew that if we left, it would harm both the United Kingdom and the European Union. They were very clear about this — and, wow, how right they turned out to be. This caused damage to our economic, social, and cultural life. Wales alone lost, net, 1 billion pounds in regional funding that it would have received from the EU. This rupture considerably weakened opportunities — especially for young people — to work, live abroad, and enjoy the freedoms we had before. We could rejoin the Customs Union or the Single Market; but if we did so in isolation, we would merely be 'rule takers' — we would have to accept everything that the EU determined without being at the table to negotiate. As someone in the audience pointed out, the European Union is changing. But that is not a reason for us not to return; on the contrary, it is the ideal reason for us to be inside and help shape it into the kind of Union we want. I don't believe there is any other option but to fully rejoin the bloc. The journalist George Monbiot (working at the BBC) brought this Russian interference back into the spotlight by publicly declaring: “There is a reason why Russia tried to interfere in the Brexit vote: they knew that if we left, it would harm both the United Kingdom and the European Union.

Arthur Machado stated that if Lula lost the elections on the 25th, sectors of the right that defined themselves by anti-PT sentiment could be left without a central opponent, since, according to him, they had not built an alternative project for the country. Machado criticized a portion of the liberal right, which, in his view, repeated slogans without presenting proposals to attract investments, modernize laws, or promote coexistence with divergent views. He also mentioned that the PT could fragment and compete for space among leaders after Lula. As an example, he cited European sectors that, according to him, reorganized their political identity around fighting other groups, including the radical right. Machado stated that without a consistent national project, former opponents of the PT could start targeting Eduardo Bolsonaro and other movements in search of new adversaries. The author also said that the criticisms of the "5th element" came from groups without a project or knowledge about Brazil and claimed that political groups that treated law as a tool for control, rather than as a guarantee of rights and freedoms, were technocratic and promoted a Chinese governance model. He concluded that the problem for these sectors would be discovering that they never had a project to replace Lula as an opponent. #PolíticaBrasil #Antipetismo #Lula (translated)
