A good source of info (immo) is Glenn Greenwald's The Intercept:

There was also an interesting article/analysis in this month's Le Monde
Diplomatique (Bolsanaro was then on the verge of being elected)
A quote from a middle class lady illustrated perfectly the angst of the
bourgoisie to be overrun by the great unwashed empowered by years of PT
government. (from memory):
"you know, taking a plane (on a domestic flight) used to be a clubby
experience. But today 'these people' can afford the airfare and so we're
now forced to queue together with the riff raf".
It's not looking good at all indeed.
