Publisher: The advice of the "witch" on the editorials of Estadão



The Lula Government is far from constituting a unanimity, because, as the playwright from Pernambuco, Nelson Rodrigues, warned, all unanimity is stupid. I believe that Brazilian society has never been so divided or polarized. Lula was elected to the Presidency of the Republic under appreciably adverse conditions. In the midst of an environment of instabilities and political turbulence, in a very balanced election, with the opposition having an advantage over the Federal Legislative. Even anti-democratic maneuvers were carried out, in the sense of preventing him from assuming the presidency.

His biggest headaches today are related to the troubled relationship with the Chamber of Deputies, where he faces frequent hostilities and defeats. We are pessimistic about the possibility of building safe bridges here, but sometimes the political milieu can reserve some surprises for us. The right to dissent is inherent to a democratic process, which becomes perfectly acceptable and understandable in the editorials of a newspaper like O Estado de São Paulo.

What happens, however, is that this editorial line is becoming tedious and boring, as observed by some Internet users today. A fixed idea, as Machado de Assis warned, is crazy. God forbid you from a fixed idea, reader. Before a mote, a beam in the eyes. Recommend the "witch". The quotation is from memory, still from the times of adolescence, when we had contact with the author's work, which constituted our first readings. So sorry for any mistakes.
