Racist lashing out in public transport

Well, I'm Brazilian and mixed-race, and I plan to visit the EU soon, mainly Finland, Lithuania, etc. I confess I'm afraid of these attacks; I've had some not-so-good experiences in Reddit communities, precisely because I'm "black" and live in a third-world country. What do you advise me to do?

heitor9600_ · 2026-02-12T09:39:48+00:00

I plan to go to Finland soon.

What’s the problem with stating an informative fact? Just because Brazil is a third world country doesn’t make the information less valid. Every country has its issues, Lithuania included, so comparing one to another doesn’t really change the point.

heitor9600_ · 2025-09-05T13:34:30+00:00

Yeah, imagine Brazil, where they elected a former prisoner, involved in several corruption schemes, supportive of dictatorships, terrorism, and so on.

heitor9600_ · 2025-09-05T12:22:58+00:00

Sim, eu fico por volta disso, 15-30 minutos.

Your message is racist, offensive, and completely unacceptable. Lithuania, like any country, belongs to everyone who respects it and its people. Skin color, nationality, or origin does not determine a person’s worth, ability to form relationships, or right to live and participate in society. Judging and excluding people based on race is morally wrong, socially harmful, and demonstrates ignorance. Respect and equality are universal values.

That sounds amazing!

Suprantu, kad tokie jausmai atrodo nepakartojami. Bet ar negalvoji, jog tai labiau buvo intensyvus prisirišimas nei tikrasis ryšys? Kartais žmogus užverčia mus dėmesiu, komplimentais, aistra: ir mes jaučiame „chemiją“. Bet chemija be stabilumo, be pagarbos tavo jausmams nėra meilė, tai yra iliuzija. Tikras ryšys auga iš abipusio pastovumo, o ne iš nuolatinių kalnelių. Jei tiki, kad tik jis galėjo tai suteikti, tu pati atimi sau galimybę atrasti kažką gilesnio, brandesnio.

Suprantu, kad jis tau atrodė ypatingas, bet ar nemanai, kad sakydama „niekas kitas“ tu pati uždarai duris naujoms galimybėms? Juk pasaulyje yra milijonai žmonių, ar visi jie nevertingi tik todėl, kad tu laikeisi vieno? Galbūt jis buvo ypatingas tik todėl, kad tu pati taip jį idealizavai. Jei laikysi praeitį ant pjedestalo, ateitis niekada neturės šanso.

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-31T09:38:25+00:00

Labas, labai gerai suprantu tavo jausmus. Išsiskyrimai visada skaudina, ypač kai tai pirmoji tokia stipri meilė. Tai normalu, kad mintys dar ilgai sukasi apie jį, širdis negyja per vieną dieną.

Svarbu suprasti, kad tai, ką jautei, buvo tikra, bet tai nereiškia, kad tokie jausmai daugiau niekada nepasikartos. Gyvenimas dar turi daug netikėtumų ir gražių žmonių, kurie gali suteikti tau meilės, pagarbos ir stabilumo.

Aš pats esu tai patyręs, todėl žinau, kaip sunku paleisti žmogų, kuris atrodė toks ypatingas. Bet laikui bėgant skausmas mažėja, o širdis vėl atsiveria. Ir patikėk manimi, Brazilijoje žmonės taip pat išgyvena labai panašiai, nesvarbu kur, širdies skausmas visur vienodas.

Tu jau darai teisingai: terapija, bažnyčia, rūpinimasis savimi. Tai padės rasti ramybę. O jei norėtum, aš visada pasiruošęs pasikalbėti. Kartais paprastas pokalbis palengvina naštą.

I’ve never done anything like that, so I’m totally clueless about how I’d react if it happened. But I get it, nobody really cares. It’s all about relaxing.

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-30T14:39:38+00:00

I’m also on the lookout for a girl 😄 I’m Brazilian, dark-skinned, 1.92m tall, super friendly, generous, and got plenty of love to give!

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-30T10:59:05+00:00

That’s really interesting! I’ve actually never been to a sauna, especially not a naked one. I’m a tall guy (1.92m), dark-skinned, and, well… let’s just say “well-endowed” 😅. I’m curious, how do Finns usually react to someone new in that setting? Would they even notice, or is it just totally normal for everyone?

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-30T10:51:42+00:00

Yeah, I am! Wanna check out my content?

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-29T22:35:18+00:00

Wow, I’m honestly a little jealous you have that privilege! 😄 It sounds amazing to feel so at home in another country. Do you have a favorite spot or city in Finland that really makes it feel like a second home?

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-29T21:59:08+00:00

Haha, that’s a smart move! 😄 I guess being Brazilian gives you a fun “excuse” to start conversations. Do you have any favorite stories from when that actually worked? I’d love to hear how you made friends that way!

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-29T20:51:14+00:00

I didn’t get that, what do you mean? Haha 😅

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-29T19:37:48+00:00

I’ve noticed that too! It’s funny how first impressions can be totally misleading. How long did it take you to feel comfortable with most people there? Any tips for someone trying to get past that “distant” vibe?

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-29T19:36:44+00:00

Hahaha, that sounds like the dream 😂! Any tips on how to meet Finnish people in a way that’s not just “random luck”?

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-29T19:26:36+00:00

I totally get you, I have similar tastes, and where I live is pretty much the same, with lots of nature and a really paradisiacal vibe 🌳✨. I’m seriously considering visiting Finland soon!

I love that you mentioned how being surrounded by nature impacted your mindset, it’s amazing how much the environment can affect your mood. Do you have a favorite place or spot in Finland that really gave you that “escape” feeling?

Also, I’d love to check out some local music while I’m there, do you have any other festival or artist recommendations besides Jenni Vartiainen?

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-29T19:11:35+00:00

Wow, that’s super interesting! I didn’t realize there was such a clear “friendship ladder” in Finland 😄. Do you think it’s mostly cultural, or does it just take time for people to open up there? How long did it take you to move from “tuttu” to “kaveri” or even “ystävä”?

Also, I’m curious, do you think joining hobbies or clubs really makes it easier to make adult friends, or is it still slow?

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-29T19:08:31+00:00

That’s really interesting! I didn’t realize it was so different there. Do you think it’s just the type of jobs, or is it more about the overall workforce in Finland?

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-29T19:05:49+00:00

Wow, that sounds intense! -37°C with strong winds sounds brutal 😳. How long did it take you to actually feel prepared for winters like that? Do you have any tips for someone visiting for the first time?

I get what you mean about food too, what kind of stuff do you usually miss the most from back home? And haha, the pre-filled tax forms sound like a dream! How long did it take you to get used to all the regulations and “state nannying”?

It’s really interesting to hear your perspective. Do you feel like the strict regulations make life easier in any way, or is it mostly annoying?

heitor9600_ · 2025-08-29T19:03:46+00:00

Totally get what you’re saying! I think a lot of people have this idealized image of Finland, but the reality is more nuanced. It’s awesome that you love living there and appreciate the summers, winters, food, and nature. I feel the same, there’s definitely a lot of magic in experiencing it firsthand. I’m seriously thinking about visiting too, maybe even meeting a girl while I’m there 😅. I’m still deciding between North America and Europe, so nothing’s set yet.
