Second point, you had — and that's why I think it's a mistake — I defend, I've already taken part in several debates here on Band, I've run — this is my seventh major election; if you count runoffs it's about ten major elections — and I've always participated in Band's debates, but this one noticeably had an ineligible candidate, and the advance in the pre-election registration deadline means that someone who is ineligible — which is the case of garotinho, right?

So, too little, right?
And I'll even say something here: today's world, right?

About: revise media debate formats in light of social media
This thing about the advent of social media, I think it's a reflection that the media organizations themselves will have to make, right?

There, as mayor, knowing I was going to be attacked by everyone, again, I've already taken part in many debates in my life, right?
Including against the delinquent, the Penta imprisoned, garotinho, right?

About: require compliance with eligibility rules when registering candidacies
In 2018 he was our opponent, I'm used to debate, but then you're giving a platform to a guy who is — by the way, in his case it's not even ineligibility, it's loss of political rights, right?
So that's it, I think we have to strike that balance.
