A search for "Movement BRasil 200 anos" yields content related to the 200 year anniversary of Brazil.
The partly obscured digits on the bottom picture also look to be 1822 - 2022.
(*I myself posted a compilation of pics in Twit, because I was told they were "Bolsonaro support vs Lula support". Subsequent investigation and verification by more knowledgeable folks showed it was not the case. The mass rallies were for the 200 anniversary (bicentenary) celebration of Brazil.)
