247 - According to columnist Mônica Bergamo, the moderate reaction from leaders in the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate regarding Jair Bolsonaro's call for the demonstrations on the 15th was deliberate. 

The decision is to let Bolsonaro talk to himself when he stirs up controversy about issues that distract from the economic crisis. Since the occupant of the Planalto Palace has no answers to the serious problems, he diverts the discussion to other matters. 

According to experts in social media monitoring, the economic agenda is damaging Bolsonaro, and changing the subject is beneficial to him. column It reports that the consulting firm Arquimedes collected 208 opinions from March 2nd to 6th regarding the GDP: 81,16% were unfavorable to the government. 

Another study, by AP Exata, points out that the government is losing the war on social media, where Bolsonaro supporters only make noise but don't have more influence than those within their own echo chamber.
