    Obviously not everywhere in the country is unsafe but clearly for people in the favelas it’s a different thing

      The clear Elephant in The Room here is that the girl from Blumenau doesn’t live in a bad city. Blumenau is calm and serene.

      What those people categorize as “violence” is mixing with other cultures and colors of skin. The existence of a dark skinned person is, in those terms of violence, a violation, an infrigement, an act of pure violence. Violence inside their own soul, that corrodes and decays in face of pure Existence. This is why those people are leaving Brazil, or that’s their main argument. People who look for places where they can thrive are many, but you can be sure that anyone using the terms of “violence” of their own accord are mentioning the pure violence that comes from their own souls.

        Do you know where exactly in the city she lives to make the claim that she’s totally safe stop with this weird projection that Brazil is completely ok and that anyone who has a problem with the country is simply racist the country has a struggling economy, severe corruption and high levels of crime

          I’m just saying that this is a very common case. People in the favelas don’t have money to leave for North America. Some people may find it bad here, some people may find cheap work elsewhere, but many people leave because they’re endophobes (the opposite of xenophobes).

            I really doubt many people leave Brazil because they’re racist even if they did it still doesn’t change the point Brazil has a wide array of problems that makes it’s citizens want to migrate
