Its nothing at all. Its less than 4 reais a day, cant do shit with it. Prices are rising like crazy, like coffee has incresed almost 100% since Lula took office. Lula also put a cap on how much the minimum wage can increase. Its getting harder and harder to support Lula

Yeah, it's getting to imperial core-level bs (looking at PSOE). At least with Boric I would say I saw it coming from the start (though maybe not that level of bootlicker)

I suppose you mean PSOL, to wich i respond "Fuck PSOL". Its the NGO-Washington-Identitarian party. And yeah, Boric received way too much positive coverage from the mass media, makes you raise an eyebrow

No, I mean the Spanish socdem party (which is saying the most progressive socdems in the EU for some reason). The only thing they did in like 5 years is raising min wage to catch up with inflation and subsidizing landlords
