One of the differences between male to male communication in Brazil vs Anglo countries is that in Brazil, there is more of an allowance for aggressive words and posturing without necessarily inviting a fight, so this debate format suits them
In Anglo societies especially, displays of aggression is taken as a major disrespect and invite to fight and can escalate quickly unless someone backs down pretty fast to diffuse it
It can be a bit of a culture shock in Brazil when you find yourself in an intense exchange of words with some random, and your inclination especially coming from an Anglo country to think it’s more of serious challenge than it maybe is
The stereotype of Communism forcing you to work in a steel mill doesn't work anymore because for young people something obviously useful like that would be infinitely more meaningful and rewarding than the video game streamer / doordash driver / onlyfans pipelines forced on them.
