President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva took advantage of the PT membership event organized by former São Paulo mayor Marta Suplicy to pull the wool over the eyes of members of his party and other left-wing acronyms so that they focus on the voters of other political parties camp instead of just talking to each other.
After making the reservation to say what would happen next because he was old enough to do so and because he didn’t care about possible unpleasant consequences, Lula argued that there was no point in preaching to the converted.
“You, fellow left-wing activists, often waste a lot of time looking at what the government is doing… Our role when we win elections is not to look at the government’s flaws. Because the government’s flaws are your flaws,” he said. said the president at the party event.
“Our challenge is to know the following: will we go to the suburbs of this country to talk to people who have been deceived by Bolsonarism? Will we talk to people who get carried away by fake news every day? talk to young people from the suburbs? Are we talking to those people who are poor and don’t vote for us? Are we talking to those people who are evangelicals and who believe the blatant lies of some pastors?” the president asked.
Lula recalled that the PT was born from the desire to “give voice and voice” to the people and underlined the need to “talk to others”.
“I must win with those who are not yet participating with us in this struggle. For the love of God, let’s multiply the loaves. Let’s multiply political awareness, let’s change the intelligence of these people so that they don’t believe the lies.”
It is not the first time that Lula has recognized the PT’s difficulties in communicating with sectors of society. Just under two months ago, at the PT 2024 Election Conference, the president struck the same chord.
One of the backgrounds to this difficulty in dialogue is a strong anti-PT sentiment fueled in the past by accusations of corruption. It was in this context, about 9 years ago, that Marta Suplicy left the party.
Now he has made his return to the PT official, having Lula sign his membership card during the event, on stage. According to her, “more mature” and with more experience, Marta Suplicy will be the vice president of Guilherme Boulos (PSOL) in the race for mayor of São Paulo.
Commenting on the upcoming municipal elections, Lula acknowledged that victory in the capital São Paulo is “not easy”, but “quite possible”.
