Yes in a way it’s similar in other ways it’s totally different because it’s also a different story. Americans I think in general don’t blame England for having been in the USA. Brazil got their independence wayyyy way sooner than any other colony, in 1822 just few decades after the USA. But so many keep using arguments against the wrong people. A poor Portuguese person being victim of mass tourism is also a victim and not the one to blame for whatever we did there . And concerning internal issues Brasilians themselves discriminate each other a lot based on their skin colour. In the end humanity is a mess. Still I particularly didn’t do a thing . And my ancestors … well I don’t know who they were just like any European has no clue. I know I great great grandmother was Spanish and the others, knowing the culture of my country too well, may have always been poor people who had miserable lives. You see if they had been rich I would still be . This is for you too see how much the class system is rooted here.
