From Rio de Janeiro
Brazil recovers. It’s never been this good. Optimism spreads. The economy grows again, jobs are created, support for the government increases. The country seems to be entering a new cycle of expansion, which projects Brazil with a leftist project for the next few years.
Of course, the right is not resigned to this. She would be confessing his resounding defeat, renouncing his values, which barely disguise his interests. They would have to confess that they failed, after leading the country and the Brazilians to the worst moments of their lives.
They are reduced to gossip with minor and false observations about Lula and his successful performance, in Brazil and in the world. They use the media for that.
But the victorious Lula bothers not only the right, which believed that he had liquidated Lula by imprisonment without evidence. He also annoys the old left, the one defeated with the end of the USSR, the one that is irritated by the overcoming of him by the new left. Those voices that, historically defeated, with the failure and disappearance of the USSR, insist on maintaining a catastrophic vision. The success of Lula and the PT represents that a new page has been turned in the history of Brazil.
Lula defeats catastrophizing, showing that Brazil can grow again, create jobs, distribute income. Even with the heavy legacy of extremely high interest rates and a conservative Congress.
Lula’s optimism annoys both the right and the old left. Instead of sharing the joy that Brazil is experiencing, the improvement in the living conditions of the mass of the population, the defeat of the right and the extreme right, he is annoyed by the success of Lula and the country.
Lula’s success defeats catastrophism, that vision that, once defeated, would like that defeat to spread to other forces as well. They say that we should be careful with Lula’s success, because that success would defeat catastrophism.
Lula is an optimistic person. Having overcome all the problems she had in her life history, she could only become someone like that.
He conveys his optimism to people. And he leaves the right and the pessimists in a very difficult situation. Because the country that has governed again is a country that grows economically, generates jobs, projects itself in the world as a country with prestige.
Lula is the face of this Brazil.
