Historically one of the biggest mistakes and examples of naivete the left continues to commit to is to underestimate the influence of elitist ideological culture as well as racism. Lula himself made this same mistake. There is no 'Social Democracy' bargain you can strike with that class of ppl that will be acceptable to them. No amount of higher and more stable profits will be enough. Logic will not be enough. The threat of hypocrisy will not be enough. Because this is an ideological battle.
