Joyce Soares

guardian

Joyce Soares, a 22-year-old pool attendant from Brazil, identifies as a more conservative individual who values family and child protection. She opposes ideological impositions in schools but acknowledges the importance of political manifestations. Disillusioned by the current political extremes, Joyce has distanced herself from social media, feeling that polarization has eroded compassion among people. Although she supports social measures like tax exemptions for low-income earners, she criticizes what she perceives as 'assistentialist' programs that promote complacency and fraud. Despite her disagreements with President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, she expresses a desire for unity and prays for the president's success, believing that the government's performance directly impacts the working class.
