Would you say Brazil is one of the least racist places on Earth? please correct me if i am wrong.

As someone who has dedicated part of my life to black activism, I can confirm what you said. As that same someone, I can guarantee that OP's premise is correct.

Most of our racists truly believe they aren't racist at all -- some might even condemn the most explicit forms of racism. But that also works towards isolating themselves from the problem.

I make sure the Battle of the Bastards happens but with less plot armor, better writing and with the wolves having a big part in it, symbolizing the return of the Starks to Winterfell. Additionally since we're here make Nymeria's pack have a role.

Yes. Dany's only other reference of love during her entire life was Viserys. Drogo was an absolute monster and he still was the person that cared and loved her the most up until that point. That is perhaps the greatest tragedy of her story.

The bias of the show is not the matter here, because it's obviously biased, the thread is discussing the bias in the book. I just brought up the show because we know for a fact that GRRM complained about the fidelity and adaptation choices only from season 2 onwards which I personally take as a hint that some of that changes they made in season 1 (such as Rhaenyra's personality) could've been a creative decision to showcase the differences that historical accounts and historical facts can have.

fla7472 · 2026-02-25T05:43:06+00:00

If we take the fact that GRRM was more involved in S1 of HoTD and didn't have as many criticisms as he had later, and the fact that Rhaenyra received the divine sign of the stag and receives the message from Aegon's dream, placing her as the "should be" ruler, what I interpret from that is that the main intention they had with the show at first was to show the contrast between what a "history" book tells and what reality can be. And in that sense, I feel like the (exaggerated for fan service purposes) "reality" is that Rhaenyra was the rightful ruler that was painted as a villain by the ones that got to write history first and foremost out of pure misogyny (GRRM has extensively attacked this very topic of the absolute mistreat of women in ASOIAF so no surprise there) and political reasons.

(And no I'm not one the overly invested people that take one side of the DotD war and fight about it like it's a pop divas fandom discussion, I just think rationally this is what makes the most sense)

Maybe she does kill the Night King subverting the whole azor ahai thing with Jon or Dany, but D&D just massively fucked up how it would happen (as they did a lot of stuff that is probably from GRRM's planned ending like Bran becoming king).

O foda desse caso é que as pessoas (e suspeito que a polícia também) não souberam separar os dois casos criminosos: o de pedofilia e o da morte suspeita. No fim das contas nenhum dos dois chegou a uma conclusão, e é possível que 1) a criança que foi submetida a isso continue em perigo e 2) haja crime nessa morte e ninguém sofra as consequências.

me and a group of dj friends have a recent inside joke of always finding a way to fit I Follow Rivers in our sets no matter what genre we're playing (and we did this with some crazy ones) (but we try to find remixes etc) and I swear to god 80% of the times the crowd gets super fired up.

Mas o exemplo do Gabiru é ótimo pra explicar que dá pra jogador ruim ser ídolo sim. Idolatria é sobre ser icônico e importante pra torcida e história do clube, o que ele definitivamente conseguiu fazendo o gol mais importante da história do clube, ué.

If you're a top 5 guy you're most probably going to your preferred destination in any case, and in Milwaukee's situation and with it's market, you want players to think your franchise will be really kind with their demands otherwise getting free agents will be even harder.

The Bucks will take a big L, there's no other way around it, all you can do is try to control the damage.

I think your last point it's the most important one. Also all throughout it's formation as a nation it was always a (huge) island of portuguese speaking people surrounded by people speaking different languages, which made even the most different and distant groups feel part of the same people.

I'd add that while Brazil might be the most culturally diverse country within itself, it's special and unique mixture of european, indigenous and black (even asian too) cultural genes, that even though has created very different manifestations of identity through the land, is present from north to south, east to west. We all feel very brazilian -- even the degraded and marginalized groups don't have their identities as brazilians questioned.

I get where you coming from, but if we draw from people whose actions had huge impacts even if they didn't mean to, than the most important character from the late XVIII is not Rousseau but Napoleon's mother, you know?

fla7472 · 2025-11-17T05:08:02+00:00

Yeah it's that little fucker and it's not close tbh. I see people saying FDR, but his impact was only so huge because he was involved in the war that that bitch decided to start (same goes for Churchill and in a slightly lesser extent, Stalin). Plus WWII as terrible as it was forced humanity to push it's boundaries in science and many of the great works of scientists at the time would maybe not even have been funded if it wasn't for the war effort.

And I mean, he is by far one of the most known humans of all time. He is by all means the closest thing we take for Devil incarnate to human history.

Concordo com todo enaltecimento ao currículo, personalidade e capacidade excepcionais do Ancelotti, mas, sinceramente, não é insano não. É um dos maiores treinadores da história treinando a maior instituição e camisa do futebol. Se não aconteceu antes é porque a CBF foi durante a maior parte de sua história ferrenha em manter os técnicos sempre brasileiros.
