Xico Graziano criticized Lilia Schwacz for a video in which, according to him, the professor said she would use Pix as much as possible because Flávio Bolsonaro could end the system by order of Donald Trump. Graziano classified the statement as false and questioned whether Schwacz knew this or truly believed that a victory for Bolsonaro would leave Brazil subservient to the United States. The author highlighted that Schwacz was a professor of Anthropology at USP, a Global Scholar from Princeton, an award-winning writer, and the owner of the publishing house Cia das Letras. He also stated that she was elected to the Brazilian Academy of Letters in March 2024 for chair 9. Graziano compared the video to her inauguration speech two years earlier, in which, according to him, Schwacz had advocated for the strengthening of institutions and citizenship. Graziano questioned whether the professor had used her prestige to deceive the public and speculated about the reasons for the publication, mentioning the possibility that she had consumed alcohol or was out of touch with reality due to living in an academic bubble. He also associated the episode with what he described as an old ideology of the Brazilian intellectual left, formed in the 1950s and 1960s and still linked to the class struggle. #FakeNews #Cidadania #Antropologia (translated)

Fede Sturzenegger stated that the fiscal cost corresponded to public spending and not to the taxes that financed it. He asserted that if the Government reduced spending, it would need to collect less and then it could be debated which taxes to lower. He defended the RIGI because, he said, it had a significant impact on production, and he referred to Mirrlees' optimal taxation theory to argue that it was beneficial to reduce taxes where elasticity was greater. Sturzenegger described part of public spending as useless and corrupt and claimed that reducing it would allow for a reallocation of resources towards production. He also anticipated that President Javier Milei would push for further spending cuts and new tax reductions. #Economía #Impuestos #GastoPúblico (translated)

The Acervo Sharks team stated that they would not share the link or parts of an article by Nick Remsen from GQ Magazine, considering it misogynistic and prejudiced. According to the team, the text bordered on sensationalism, delegitimized women and young fans, and associated them with problematic behaviors. They also said they were tired of dealing with this type of discourse and did not want to contribute to its propagation. The team also pointed out an attempt to relativize the "Hot For Hockey" campaign by Sean Eggert, which was criticized, according to the post, for using audiobooks in the style of hockey romances to attract a female audience. From this, they concluded that the NHL had not evolved in its treatment of this audience but had only learned new ways to suppress it. #Feminismo #Esporte #Igualdade (translated)

Felipe Leme stated that B3 had a historic day, with an increase of more than 7% in the Bovespa index and a drop of more than 20 cents in the dollar. He attributed the movement to the hope that Flávio could defeat Lula in the second round and interpreted the optimism as a sign of investor support for economic freedom. Leme argued that Flávio should present proposals for tax cuts and public spending reductions, citing the style of Javier Milei, who, according to him, yelled "AFUERA!" when announcing cuts in ministries. Among the measures he suggested were to end split payment and the fee on blouses, reduce ministries, and reconsider the oversight of the Income Tax. The author added that many Brazilians would be suffocated by taxes and that some of them had not even voted but could mobilize in the face of the prospect of paying less. He urged Flávio to quickly present a cuts plan and accelerate the campaign. #B3 #Bovespa #Eleições2024 (translated)
