I guess we all know who we're not voting for but who will we vote for then? There's 4 left-of-center candidates and the big one is incarcerated. That leaves us Ciro Gomes, who is trying to re-animate PDT's rotting corpse by purging right-wing opportunists like Ana Amelia at the top level, but whose actual support base is so small he will have to cave in to PMDB if he ever gets to be president. Boulos and Manoela are busy replaying stalinists vs trotskysts and won't win ever, so besides Lula riding a magical unicorn out of jail into the ballots what option is there for the brazilian left?

I mostly agree but

The only real solution I can see for the bondoggle would be a massive general election of the whole legislative, followed by a constitutional assembly to unfuck things a bit and maybe get some shred of legitimacy and functionality going.

A new constitution, surely it will work THIS time!!!!
