Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s campaign presented to the Superior Electoral Court a lawsuit in which it asks the Court to suspend advertising by Jair Bolsonaro’s campaign that associates the PT with images of goods burned in demonstrations, wounded military police, setting fire to the flag of the Brazil and scenes of vandalism.
According to the PT, the broadcast takes place exactly at a time when the country is undergoing a serious scenario of political violence stimulated “not by the Workers’ Party, but by the allies of Jair Messias Bolsonaro”.
“It is impossible to ignore the fact that there have already been two cases – public and notorious – of murder of sympathizers of the Workers’ Party exactly in this scenario. That is to say, screen advertising totally distorts the reality of the facts from this perspective as well”.
According to Lula’s campaign, the propaganda ends “with a serious decontextualization of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s speech”.
“In the malicious clipping made by the publicity of those represented, the candidate expressed the following sentence: ‘This family agenda, the agenda of values, is something that is long overdue’. The speech was cut and extracted from its original context, in which, in an interview, the candidate addressed the topic of abortion and, in this context, pointed out that the discussion needs to evolve, but not that it is a matter of minor importance – as he wanted. suggest the cut made by the contested advertisement”.
Sought, Bolsonaro’s campaign has not yet manifested.
