No longing for my relative
The promotion of popular dissatisfaction leads us to believe that this is just another appendage of this self-service system, adopted by those who sell out the country and, through the media, have been trying to manipulate the population with ready-made phrases that attribute the entire economic crisis to the only government that gave oxygen to the economy and the people.
The questionable management of our Petrobras aimed to undermine the sovereignty and power of our state-owned company.
Despite his neoliberal rhetoric that he would not accept political interference in his administration, Parente adopted, at the very least, strange approaches in managing one of the most valuable assets and a symbol of national pride.
Their strategy was to favor foreign shareholders and punish the nation with constant fuel price increases.
In this way, it wouldn't take long for us to completely lose our state-owned company, which was gradually being handed over in pieces, a sneaky way of privatizing it.
With the help of the coup-supporting media, they were portraying the worst possible image of the company, claiming that efforts were being made to save it. They were thus attempting to manipulate public opinion and promote popular dissatisfaction.
In his inauguration speech in 2016, Pedro Parente harshly criticized the Lula government, accusing it of "Petrobras being the victim of an organized gang that took advantage of its personnel to support its personal and power projects."

Pedro Parente's management of Petrobras has become unsustainable! His intentions were clear. The coup-supporting media and the illegitimate government that emerged from a coup could no longer keep him in charge of the state-owned company.
This administration's dubious policy of favoring the foreign market and extorting the people is the cause of the economic collapse we have experienced in recent days. A reality that was beyond anyone's imagination some time ago.
Parente's resignation.
It's frightening to see how the coup-supporting media is reporting the dismissal of someone who bowed to neoliberalism.
The manager who, with a gentle touch, handed over our oil at a friendly price to the imperialists. He inhibited domestic refining, outsourcing the service abroad and subsequently, after it was refined, importing the same oil at a high cost.
With that same hand, it weighed heavily on the pockets of the population, promoting high prices for its own country and ridiculously low prices for the foreign market.
With a somber tone, the news of Pedro Parente's dismissal is reported by the media, which, through graphs and figures, attempts to confuse the Brazilian public. Furthermore, they criticize those who, out of love for Brazil, celebrate the departure of the sellout who benefited shareholders at the expense of the Brazilian people.
What do they want with this? To materialize their dreams? To hand over everything that is ours?
Today the illegitimate government suffers a defeat, one less tentacle. That's cause for celebration!
Parente, you're leaving without leaving any regrets; your questionable management didn't damage the pillars of our state-owned company, which will survive this government lacking legitimacy and national representation.
The certainty of the coup comes from the incompetence reflected in every pronouncement of the one who calls himself president. The futile attempt to deceive a population that can no longer tolerate being plundered is remarkable.
We are keeping our eyes wide open and our ears closed to any and all media manipulation that attempts to distort the cowardly image that culminated in the failure of this government.
We will not bow down to you traitors who sell out the nation; Petrobras is synonymous with pride and a promising future.
