It is a principle established by science and common sense that you cannot expect different results if you always practice the same experiment. President Lula is offering an “extra plus” to contribute to this teaching: the subject can even change their experiences, but they will always get the same zero if they continue to be the person they are. Lula cannot, and probably does not want, behave in a different way than the one he displays every day to the public.

Basically, to summarize the opera, he doesn’t rule. He is trafficking funds with a deputy from the center. He travels to useless destinations and schedules. He became a walking mannequin for displaying glasses, clothes and accessories chosen by women. In almost a year and a half as President, he was unable to deliver a single solution, or even a coherent suggestion, for any concrete difficulty facing the population. He just talks nonsense, here and when he travels. He cannot, therefore, be taken seriously by ordinary citizens – much less count on his presence when he tries to appear in the public square.
Lula said when receiving receipt of the defeat, that it was the fault of the high commissioners of the union apparatus, who “didn’t know how” to call on the people as they should.
His last attempt, on the May 1st holiday in São Paulo, was yet another humiliation. It is the sacred date for workers around the world, of whom the PT’s supreme commander considers himself the only genuine leader – the day of the masses, of speaking out against “neoliberalism” and of defending the “poor”. It was, once again, a day of fiasco for Lula and his “image” strategists.
They called the people to support the president – and the people didn’t show up, as it was obvious that they weren’t going to show up. For seventeen years, since 2007, Lula has not appeared before the people – the real people, and not the automatons who go to closed auditoriums, wearing a red cap, with orders to clap for him. He tried it now, who knows why. The result, obviously, was a massive absence of audiences. How could it be different, if Lula is the same, or worse, than he was in 2007, when he got his last big boo?
It is a failed failure, even with all the support of the official machine – and, even worse than that, surpassing yet another level in terms of pure and simple ridiculousness. Soon after former president Bolsonaro led a demonstration on the three open kilometers of Avenida Paulista, and another in the middle of Copacabana beach, Lula called his May 1st rally to the parking lot of the Corinthians stadium, 20 kilometers away. and a 50-minute drive from Paulista. It seems like a joke, but that’s exactly what they did – and, to complete the work, they couldn’t even fill the parking lot. There was the CUT, the CUT buses, the CUT t-shirts, the president and the army of sycophants who crowd the authorities’ platform. But people, which is good, didn’t exist.
They shouldn’t have even tried to do what they did – and if they do it again the disaster will be the same. The last thing on Lula’s mind is to change his own behavior and, much less, to think that there is any relationship between what he does in government and the failure of street protests in his favor – there is not, for the president, the possibility of making a mistake in anything, never
It’s always someone else’s fault. In general, it is due to the “right-wing articulation” and the stupidity of the people themselves, who do not have the capacity to realize how much Lula helps “the poor”, commands the “Global South” and other things. This time, he accused CUT itself. As he said when giving receipt of the defeat, it was the fault of the high commissioners of the union apparatus, who “didn’t know how” to call on the people as they should. He didn’t explain to CUT what would have to be done, as he doesn’t have the slightest idea of what he’s talking about – but as always, no one made a peep. Lula is convinced that neither he nor his government had anything to do with the absence of the public in the Corinthians parking lot. The people didn’t show up because of the CUT.
