'''Workerism''' is an economically and socially center-left, statist and internationalist ideology. It represents the beliefs of the [[file:BrazilPT.png]] Worker's Party of Brazil, and specially, the president [[file:Lula.png]] Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. It's a mix of four defined ideologies, being them: [[file:Socdem.png]] Social Democracy, [[file:Soc21.png]] Socialism of the 21st Century, [[file:Christsoc.png]] Christian Socialism and [[file:Greensocdem.png]] Environmentalism.
==Lula's Government==
[[file:Lula.png]] Luis Inácio Lula da Silva, commonly known as Lula, is a prominent Brazilian politician who served as the president of [[file:Cball-Brazil.png]] Brazil from 2003 to 2011 and 2023 to today. During his tenure, he implemented significant changes in the country's political landscape, which greatly impacted its citizens and the global community.

In 2003, Lula was elected as Brazil's first working-class president, and his victory marked a significant shift in the country's political scenario. He ran on a platform of [[file:Left Reformism.png]] social reforms and economic policies that aimed to alleviate poverty and reduce income inequality. Lula's government inherited a country plagued by high unemployment rates, inflation, and foreign debt. However, he managed to steer Brazil towards economic stability and social progress during his two terms in office.

Under Lula's leadership, the Brazilian government undertook various initiatives such as the [[file:Welf.png]] Bolsa Família program, which provided financial assistance to families living in poverty. This program helped millions of families improve their standard of living and reduced the country's poverty rate by nearly half. Lula also introduced a series of social policies focused on education, healthcare, and housing, which greatly benefited the disadvantaged and marginalized populations.

Furthermore, Lula strengthened Brazil's economy by introducing various economic reforms and strengthening relations with other countries. During his presidency, Brazil's economy grew substantially, and the country became a major player in the global market. Lula also played a crucial role in founding the Union of South American Nations (UNASUR), which aimed to promote regional integration and cooperation among South American nations.

However, Lula's presidency was not without its controversies. In 2005, his government was rocked by a [[file:Klep.png]] corruption scandal known as the [[file:Client.png]] “Mensalão.” Several members of Lula's party were accused of receiving illegal payments in exchange for voting in favor of government policies. While Lula himself was never implicated in the scandal, it significantly damaged his popularity and credibility. Nevertheless, Lula's strong leadership and ability to navigate through the crisis helped him regain public trust and continue his work towards transforming Brazil's political landscape.

In 2010, Lula's chosen successor, [[file:Dilma.png]] Dilma Rousseff, was elected as Brazil's first female president, further solidifying the [[file:BrazilPT.png]] Workers' Party's (PT) hold on power. However, in 2011, Lula's presidency came to an end as term limits prevented him from running for a third term. Despite this, his popularity and impact on Brazil's political scene continued.

Fast forward to the present, and Lula is once again at the center of Brazil's political drama. In 2016, Rousseff was impeached, and her successor, [[file:Temer.png]] Michel Temer, enacted a series of [[file:Fiscon.png]] austerity measures that worsened Brazil's economic and social conditions. This led to widespread outrage and unrest, paving the way for the rise of far-right candidate [[file:Bolsonarism.png]] Jair Bolsonaro, who won the presidency in 2018.

Bolsonaro's presidency has been marked by controversial policies and sharp divisions among Brazilians. In 2018, Lula was accused and subsequently convicted of corruption, leading to his arrest and imprisonment. The conviction of the beloved former president polarized the Brazilian people, with some believing it was a legitimate legal process and others seeing it as a political tactic to eliminate Lula as a potential candidate in the upcoming presidential elections.

In 2023, after serving 580 days in prison, Lula was finally acquitted of all charges, and his political rights were restored. This paved the way for him to run for president once again, and the two governments of Lula from 2003-2011 and 2023 onwards are expected to be starkly different.

As the 2022 presidential elections loom ahead, Lula has signaled his intention to contest and aims to undo the damage caused by Bolsonaro's policies. He has promised to focus on creating jobs, reviving the economy, and investing in social programs. Lula's return to politics has created a sense of hope and excitement among Brazilians, especially the working class and marginalized populations, who see him as a symbol of change and progress.

==Personality and Behaviour==
Workerism acts like his real-life counterpart, Luis Inácio Lula da Silva. He has a pragmatical and friendly personality, being able to get along with almost everybody, even his enemies. In right-wing comics he is show as an alcoholic, corrupt, despot who only cares for personal gain at the cost of his own people. On the other hand, left-wing comics portrays him as a exemplar leader who constantly fights against the evils of the [[file:Cball-Brazil.png]] Brazilian society, being them: [[file:Plutocrat.png]] social inequality, [[file:Racism.png]] racism and [[file:ClassismPoor.png]] poverty.
