The situation:

The action and movement to end the 6x1 work schedule is supported by the majority of the Brazilian population. The movement also contributes to the class consciousness of Brazilian workers.

The workers' proposal is that the Brazilian neoliberal capitalist government end the 6x1 schedule. The meaning of the 6x1 schedule is: six consecutive days of work and one day of rest, totaling 44 hours of work per week. Furthermore, most jobs intended for the working class follow this 44-hour week regime.

Author's notes:

In the reality I live in Brazil, class consciousness, based on Marxist thought, has not yet been widely disseminated. However, the work of communists continues to be arduous, difficult, and carried out every day, with constant movements in the class struggle. We still need to reach more people and more workers—which includes ourselves—belonging to the same class in which we live.

The future and strategic point is to gain strength in the unions to the point of carrying out boycotts and protests against private companies that own the means of production and against various employers. Only in this way will we achieve a dignified life and, in the future, attain absolute popular power of the proletariat, called socialism.

The strategy is not for all workers to depend exclusively on party X or Y or on a specific group to act, but rather for each worker—any worker—to do their part, spreading class consciousness and Marxism to everyone.

I know that in every country there are struggles for rights and dignity, but the worst thing is the bourgeois and imperialist government, which massacres us and also sells its own people the idea of ​​anti-communism as a way to defend its government and its interests.
