Renan Augusto

Renan Augusto stated that it was necessary to remain calm in light of the effort that, according to him, the greatest living statesman in Latin America was making to overturn the result of his last election against a political anomaly linked to a family of militias. He said he believed the situation would change. #Política #Eleições2024 #AméricaLatina (translated)

Renan Augusto assessed that the result of the previous Sunday had served as a warning before a definitive decision and that there was still time to reverse it. He said that the survey from the previous day indicated real chances of a turnaround and advocated for maintaining focus to demonstrate the strength of São Paulo the following Sunday, stating that the largest electoral college in the country would not succumb to bolsonarism. #SãoPaulo #Virada #Esperança (translated)

Renan Augusto questioned Flávio Bolsonaro's proposal to expand access to higher education, stating that it was based on loans rather than the opening of places in federal universities or the construction of new institutes. He said that billions of reais would be allocated to private institutions of large economic groups, whose quality of education he considered dubious in most cases, and that the costs would ultimately be paid by the population. Augusto asserted that university credit programs, like FIES, were important but should complement a robust policy of public higher education. According to him, the Constitution still assigned the State the obligation to provide it and recognized this access as a right of the population. The author urged readers to mobilize to change the outcome and concluded by advocating for a vote for Lula, number 13, on the 25th. #Educação #Brasil #EnsinoSuperior (translated)

Renan Augusto stated that one of the paradoxes of the PT was having contributed, through its own policies, to part of the anti-PT sentiment it faced. He wrote that income and consumption had changed more rapidly than the social position and class perception of people who had socially ascended with these policies and who came to consider themselves close to an elite of which, according to him, they were not a part. Augusto predicted that this situation would have consequences and lamented the scenario. #PT #antipetismo #classe_social (translated)
