@ducavendish@erikfinman How naive. The goal isn’t a rival. Who the hell creates a future rival? It’s to destabilize, fragment and balkanize the region so it’s easier to control and exploit. Duh.
@kelvinbr93@erikfinman@dav_rants That’s exactly what he’s doing and some idiots are falling for it. Fragment South America, fuel separatism, and Brazil loses leverage.
@drjekyllemryde@dav_rants@erikfinman Because you’re dumb. Balkanizing Brazil and its neighbors would make it easier to install puppet governments and turn the whole region into vassal states.
@Sebasti47888065@ElPatronCriollo Brazil will remain the only sovereign country in South America. Too big, too populous to mess with. So the rest should just become US vassal states. After all, might makes right, right?
@necrohamm3r@AndradeBR__@HenriGL_ There’s no automatic Brazil-Argentina brotherhood. Different language, history, identity. One football match and it falls apart. You’re dumb.
@lrlvsq11146426@Ali_pi307@thegenesisbl0ck Boomer, in normal circumstances, young women don’t want old men. Most older men are already married and should stay with their first wives.
@iamspritz Brazil like every other South American country should diversify its economy and stay on good terms with everyone instead of aligning too closely with any one bloc.
@luishof@TayTarantula3@Bella_Jaz333 Middle-class Brazilians will enrich Paraguay. Brazilians are the most civilized people in South America. They clap back when insulted but rarely start with the monkey slurs, unlike Paraguayans and Argentinians, despite their countries being poorer than Brazil.
@TropicnLoyalist@Menez__18 Brazil became an export machine for European clubs. Players are sold too young to develop the Brazilian style. Now football is dominated by boring passing machines.
@ukporo1 Messi was manufactured and protected as a high-value asset throughout his career. Pele played in Argentina while an entire stadium chanted “monkey” at him. Pelé is the king and he endured far more abuse than Messi ever did.
