SUMMARY:

App couriers are one of the growing service categories in the country. Exposed to damage, harassment and accidents, the responsibility for the service rests solely with them. Due to this individualization, the critical analysis characterizes them as a class that does not believe in the future and is resigned on social transformations. The path opened by the movement of anti-fascist couriers in 2020 made this research possible, which was seen as individual subjectivity, without physical and personal material to build alliances, carried out one of the main demonstrations against the precariousness of work and the government. Those outside the field of law legislation, with no prior organization and little recognition, persist. This problem led to the research question: Is it possible to think of a political subject without legislative guarantee, a subject generated through the space of action? As methodology, interviews published by anti-fascist couriers on their social networks were collected, mainly from the courier Paulo Lima, as known as Galo, in the period from 2020 to 2022. To discuss the material, the choice of Butler and her psychoanalysis is to bring into question in its production the impasse posed by these bodies in political life. The objective of the research is to discuss the political subject through the claim of the couriers. The hypothesis followed is the production of this subject through the act. From an insurgency against the government and the apps, the couriers hit the streets and built a mobilization with different effects, as well as set fire to the monument to carry out the struggle of the past in the present. That enabled the recognition of the category, in addition to providing diverse alliances. The act enabled a cut, transforming a condition into a political position.
