So I had a conversation about Brazil's favelas with a ledditor and they refused to acknowledge favelas are dangerous. So any hues here want to chime in on how safe the slums are? Can a white tourist ride their motorcycle through the favelas safely?
South Brazil is safer and more developed than the North.
It's easy to pin down countries to certain characteristics, since most countries are small-ish and homogenous but Brazil is a world unto itself.
You have the largest African population outside of Africa coexisting with the largest Italian population outside of Italy. You have the largest Japanese community outside Japan along with the greatest Lebanese diaspora.
You have Africa-tier states in the North and massive slums along with German-style middle class towns in the South.
You have obscene wealth and crippling poverty side by side. It is a strange country. I visited three different parts (Bahia, Rio and Foz do Iguaçu) and I'm still fascinated by how different the three visits were.

Italy/Portugal, they came here for great jobs that were offered to them. Very unequal because it is very segregated culturally speaking (even when it is not physically segregated).

Alaska is half the size of the cintiguous states' total area

>Rio in second richest category Wow so what color is the toxic sludge in sao paulo?
Joshua Martinez
dumb fucking liberals think favelas are some sort of fucking art project
Eh, memes aside rios pretty comfy assuming you stay away from the nigger infested areas. Shame really, I saw a lot of potential when I was there last year. Frankly just roll over the shanty towns and shoot all the nogs and you end up with a less cuban miami.
Wyatt Morales
Migrated from Italy and Portugal. Damn son. That road is actually below average here.

Yeah well you don't fuck with Tibians

Nowhere is safe in Brazil.
I have never been robbed, but only because I never leave my parent's basement.

Easy to maintain cause of their climate, unlike up here.

If you've seen any of the Milwaukee streams you've seen my roads. My street is like one long rumble strip.

Half-Brazilian here
You won't have your motorcice by the time you get close to the favela
The North is pretty shit, but you can still get by if you've got the money. Most cities in the South are actually not so bad. Rio is what's turned into a shithole, but I'd rather live there than somewhere like Milwaukee or Rotherham

one part is a mixture of portuguese+dutch and migrated to here generations ago,idk when. On my father's side of the family: my grandfather migrated from Germany to here after ww2 was lost and married my grnadmother who was a mixture of (mostly)indio+negroid+portuguese+german. basically thats all.

I don't understand why retards "stance" their cars here, very few roads are in pristine condition. I remember hearing some fag ripped his oil pan off on a pothole cuz his econobox vdub golf has stretched tires, stupid camber and ground clearance comparable to his dick.

How'd you get into medkit land? I wish I lived there :(
Oliver Walker
Oh god, I know exactly what you mean. Especially when you get to West Allis where everyone getting into cars and car culture now was raised on the first few Fast and the Furious movies, it's a goddamn wonder how they keep their fucked up ricers and other assorted imports in one piece.
Luis Reed
Dad was Swiss, Mom was Brazilian. He happened to be working there
Leo Bell
STALLIS RULES, MOTHERFUCKERS!!!
James Baker
Hey now, I used to live there and I'll proudly claim that (Horace Mann faggots, suck my dick), but you can't deny what I said about the car culture there. ;^)
Joseph Ramirez
Is medkit land really as good as it seems?
Michael Evans
I love it. But it's it also SEEMS better that what it is to most outsiders because of how SHIT the rest of major Euro countries have become. Had the EU not been incompatible with our constitution, I dread to think what my country would be like.
