No, you got it wrong. This is a movement from the working class that grew spontaneously, because it focuses on an actual concrete issue of the working class.

Some figures that are part of the extreme-right, like Kim Kataguire and Nikolas Ferreira are trying to spread false news about the project and even their electoral base are criticizing them for it. And others more moderate right wing, who are opportunists, are also adhering to the cause since it gained popularity.

Some people linked to the Workers Party are vacilating and even trying to defend the Michel Temer position (MDB - center right) so that collective agreements among unions and employees should be above the law. However since many workers aren't even organized, this policy would only benefit sectors who are already organised. This is an extremely bad position.

This is a golden opportunity for the Brazilian left to push reforms and a class struggle agenda. All radical left (PCBR, PSOL and PSTU) is pushing this reform. Some people from PSOL are leading this struggle. Even some people from center and center right are adhering to this because this issue has gained immense popularity. So either to Brazilian left leads this fight or some opportunists from the right will take this movement over and the opportunity will be missed.

Psol is the identitarian university teacher's party, pstu is the party who for some whatever reason of the particular issue sides with imperialism 100% of the time. You are very misguided if you think they are far left. Both of them sided with the coup against Dilma

Some of.those parties are not monolithical structure, PSOL have some good folks like Erica Hilton who wrote this proposal as well as Glauber Braga and Samia Bonfim, plus PCBR and UP also supported this project, and for Brazil they are as left as it gets. So I'm all for this movement is a return of the left in the streets, which is where the left thrives, in movement. This is the way for the Brazilian left get in touch with the working class who we've been loosing to the right for a long time.

You have a faith in psol thst i do not. I saw a lot of shit from them over the years. I wish things were as you say, but until we get anything concrete i keep my doubts. By the way, none of those parties go leftier than socdem with marxists phrasing. Pco is the only marxist party in Brasil
