i agree mostly with you, even thought i’m a foreigner. i’d just like to point out that even though there are doubts about trump continuing america’s support of a genocide (and i believe he won’t have that much of a problem since both major parties in america support it), there’s everything else about him.

and also, everything else about the dems too. let’s just say that major lawfare campaigns against progressive governments here in latin america have been conducted under dem rule in the u.s… brazil and uruguay had their coups d’état orchestrated by the johnson administration. honduras, paraguay and brazil suffered lawfare coups under the obama administration.

there are a number of countries that are neutral and unlikely to sanction anyone else, though one might argue about their democratic credentials, with a minor or major stretch. brazil, mexico, chile, colombia, costa rica, uruguay (just to name a few in latin america), andorra, malta, san marino, india, south africa…

italo-disco. though i might reveal that in a later moment.

the point that really got me was “I’m Finnish. Did you think I’d be supporting Russian aggression?”.

in the end, it’s nato-stan all day long. tired of this.

I don’t think there’s anything that I eat that couldn’t be served to anyone else. Even some particularly Brazilian dishes, such as cooked cassava or corn couscous with milk and butter are pretty much vanilla compared to some other local dishes which I dread - such as buchada (a brazilian haggis, made with rice and goat offals), sarapatel (just the cooked goat offals) or chouriço doce (a reduction of sugar, spices and pig blood).

this. the west is not all chrome and shiny (heh), it jsut oursources its violence to its poorer lackeys.

And every time an actual leftist party succeeds, our media basically unite against it while pretending to accept them.

you’re having it so good. here in the periphery of the capitalism we are just putsched whenever a marginally leftist party gets elected, with active help from the department of state.

surely having a low self-esteem is worse. life goes on. why bother over that one single log when you’ve got all the forest to explore?

good take. the shift began at a point where not only work became more deregulated, but women were pressed to work out of home and accumulate both their jobs and the function of homemaker. you start to fight more for your rights, and men start to believe the neocon “rights for men” mumbo-jumbo.

then don’t go to war with china. people talk like the chinese would go attacking for no reason.

ogg vorbis, already mentioned above.

you elect a clown, you get the government of a clown, i’ve already said that.

work on your self-confidence and self esteem. go check a psychologist.

i’m all for it. let’s build concentration camps in the astral plane and lead these untergeister to their second deaths!

in addition to my native brazilian portuguese, i’m fluent in english and basic to intermediate level in spanish and french. i can understand and speak roughly some german and russian too (started the courses, but never finished). my objective is to someday learn both german and russian up to intermediate level, and then go for some arabic, mandarin, kongo, nheengatu (an old creole language that mixed tupi-guarani and portuguese) and esperanto.

that’s a great testimony.

more or less. my grandparents are already dead, but as far as i remember the last one living of them which i had contact with (my mother’s mother) was ok with lgbtq+ people (as far as defending their right to marriage) and quite concerned with the rights of disabled, but was somehow racist towards black and indigenous people, and could not stand demonstrations of social movements (i.e. sit-ins from landless workers and squatters, strikes and the like). my parents go about the same, but my mom is much less racist.
