Dutch Minister of Asylum and Migration Marjolein Faber and Deputy Prime Minister Fleur Agema are great examples of Pantsuit Deportation Politics, very un-intimidating cuddly and not weird EU Social Democracy HR ladies sensibly and sophisticatedly opting out of EU Migration Policy

THE SEX LIVES OF BRAZILIANS 🇧🇷

Common stereotype about Brazil is that they are obsessed with sex. People are obsessed with sex everywhere you go of course (is normally impossible to scroll the X feed without some kind of softporn appearing) but Brazil how to put it… you know it’s like they say the Inuits have over 50 words for snow - in the same way Brazil has a lot of words for sex and relationships. Country has a reputation to effect of everybody there has the same level of sexual self-restraint as an average gay man, I don’t think this is quite true but it probably is true that there is at least a subset of hyper-promiscuous Brazilians and then importantly here that some of their behaviour is attributable to aspects of Brazilian culture. Qualifier is obviously incel culture and its variants exists in Brazil too but there is nonetheless (seems to me) an important kind of hyper-liberalness in Brazilian mores

Can’t say why exactly could be a few reasons, could be the special, open nature of lusotropical society, could be the average IQ of the country, could be less social stigmas, could be the weather could be all or none of the above. Brazilian once mentioned to me offhandedly that politicians in Brasilia were known for ‘having a lot of sex parties’. Said “isn’t that something quite scandalous?” and got told no not really because it’s not considered remarkable here. Same way that there is supposedly less of a stigma around using a prostitute in Brazil, many Brazilians don’t really think anything of it. Some Brazilian men, within you know five minutes of meeting them they’d be pulling up the Instagram of a woman they were fucking or wanted to fuck and say “ahhh isn’t she hot I am fucking her / want to fuck her” and often she was but to the point, they would do this very quickly after meeting them, they were very forward about this with strangers. Nice to meet you too. Again this is all heterosexual and normal but overall impression you get is that for at least some Brazilians ‘sex culture’ is ‘more open’ like the stereotypes would have it

As I say Brazil has a lot of unique terms for sex and relationships just as Inuits have terms for different consistencies of snow - think more evidence to the thesis, here are some examples:

‘Pegação’ - has several meanings but one of main ones is it refers to act of ‘making out’ with a lot of people. So at carnival or just on a night out you cruise around and you try to kiss five, ten people. The kissing of lots of people, you ‘get off’ on this a bit presumably. You ‘taste them with your mouth’ and then you move on? I don’t understand why you don’t just try to seal the deal for the evening at that point but it’s something some people enjoy doing

‘Ficante’ - this is basically just a situationship, having someone in your roster or harem and you don’t want to commit to them but maybe you text them and invite them over to bang once every week or so. Also though it’s a designator, you identify as a ‘ficante’, you can introduce yourself as a ‘ficante’ to someone

‘Cafuné’ - this means something like ‘to tenderly caress or stroke’, especially the head when lying with a partner. There is a specific word for this. Actually women would tell me Brazilian men are bipolar ‘lovebombers’ who yo-yo from incredibly sweet and tender and loving and romantic to hysterical and clingy to cold and distant as their mood takes them. Very expansive emotional ranges and this term belies that. “Brazilians have attachment styles like a manhole cover, they are very jealous and needy - but then also they all cheat too” one woman said

‘Beijeiro / Beijeira’ - ‘Kissing Bandit’ or thereabouts, someone who smothers you with kisses. To same point above, common enough that there is a term for it

‘Talarico’ - slang for a person who romantically pursues another person’s partner, particularly too if they are a friend. Means something like ‘homewrecker’, again common enough archetype that there is a term for itImage
Spot the pattern
Regular refrain among Brazilian women (note: speaking to a foreigner) was ‘they were tired of Brazilian men’. “What all Brazilian men?” “Yes all Brazilian men.” “All of them? Really? Come on.” Draw your own inferences about the dynamics at play there

Sneako inexplicably being indulged by world leaders like the Prime Minister of Malaysia now - as well as major third world thinkers and personalities. Like it or not Sneako represents a unifying force in the Ummah, the Ummah love him. Sneako could become leader of a new Caliphate Image
This is the spectrum of Sneako-ist Thought
Sneako is the Zeitgest and the Zeitgeist is Sneako

This is kind of law Bukele needs to keep enacting to take his game to the next level - from boring competent technocrat to full on classical platonic Philosopher King. Ban random hairstyles, ban certain musical instruments, genres of art, forms of poetry etc ‘for the public good’ Image
My advice to Bukele recently has been he needs to level-up, he can’t just sit on his laurels. One of main problems here is the human capital problem. Can you de-choloify a country just by banning a certain kind of goofy haircut? Lots of work still to do
Bukele must ban the Phrygian mode next

REVIEWING RIO DE JANEIRO TODAY 🇧🇷

Rio is such an attractive city because it has an undeniable energy. A host of factors conspire to suck that energy away though (the poverty, the crime etc) - and while they half-succeed they have not quite yet fully succeeded

Thread 🧵 Image
Going to complain a lot in this thread but want to preface the complaining by saying I really enjoy spending time in Rio. I love it, Zona Sul (Leblon, Ipanema, Copacabana, Leme) especially - I don’t think there is a more magical stretch of city on the planet, it’s a Final Fantasy locationImage
Okay, Rio has many many problems but aesthetically, culturally - in the Atlanticist so-called sense ie Girl From Ipanema Bossa Nova mid century effortless cool Chico Buarque bodybuilders on Copacobana women with big boobs playing beach volleyball capirinhas in Leblon ‘Nietzschean Lusotropicalism’ - it is a very special placeImage

THE THIRD WORLD STRIKES BACK 🇧🇷

Easy somewhere like Brazil to live in a bubble despite the obvious problems the place has. It’s possible with a modest amount of money (especially if your income is foreign) to almost totally avoid the country’s third world aspects barring maybe the occasional homeless person you have to sidestep on the street

Have said this before but third world living can be very easy if you’re relatively rich by local standards. Actually had been melting into that bubble for a while, a few months… was having a really nice time. You might drive past some favelas in an uber occasionally but once you do that a few times you sort of ‘get over’ their favela-ness and it doesn’t faze you so much. Or it becomes background noise at least, you forget you are in the ‘third world’

One day I thought I would get intercity bus because the flight between cities would cost an extra $350 (since there are few low cost airline carriers travel between cities in Brazil via air is disproportionately expensive. See also eg Canada here). Also don’t mind long road journies - trip would supposedly take about 11 hours, not the end of the world, Brazilian buses aren’t terrible, nice to rest and gaze out the window…

Sat down by window seat. Suddenly a large family of indigenous-looking people gets on. I’m not sure exact indigenous group they were… Guarani, Tupi… could have been Bolivian even… All very stout, very pre-Columbian features. Maybe you’ve seen that meme image of mexicans where all the mexicans look like Shrek and Fiona (ogre form), you know rotund bodies and jeans and hair fades and gold chains - kind of like this

They’d bought up several rows of tickets for themselves including in rows with single passangers. First thing they did when they went to sit down was set up a circular encampment all turning inwards to face each other, immediately beginning to talk loudly among themselves in a large ring formation around the aisle that took up a third of the length of the bus. This entire area became ‘their space’, a whole comunidade established; kids would run up and down and it squealing, food and luggage and bedding was passed along it

They would eat obnoxiously stinky food constantly too. All kinds of packages being ripped open; the smell of milho frito em óleo de sarjeta, capybara coxinhas etc perpetually wafting into your face. Tinny music played over phone speakers, voicenotes recorded in shouting tones, babies wailing and not being disciplined… constant chatter for most of the trip

Was remarkable how unfazed they were by the concept of the bus being a kind of shared space, you could have been at a village quinceañera for all intents and purposes. Yeah we’re on a public bus with all these strangers it’s reunião de família time. Was surprised they didn’t bring a goat on board… look I’m being a bit crass here I don’t want to be too crass but you try not noticing this when it’s happening right next to you on long bus journey

Real nightmare ride in all, was close to losing it for a while before I did my breathing exercises. Okay obviously I know these behaviours exist, they’re very common, have written about this many times before this is just what certain kinds of people ‘are like’ but as I said thing for me was I got lulled into a false sense of security despite knowing all this, having experienced it many times. Had nice lifestyle for a few months - it makes you drop your guard. Forgot this could happen, almost would have paid the extra money to avoid it all it was that unpleasant. Because you are not in contact with ‘it’ you forget ‘what things are like’, the hate does genuinely leave your body, you feel yourself getting more liberal again as experience of ‘what people are capable of’ fades in your mind. But then place yourself in an environment like that and it comes rushing back and you think “oh yeah”. Don’t want to draw too many comparisons to people’s priors vis-a-vis their political preferences here ofc…Image
Here’s some audio of wailing noises on the bus. Just variants on this for hours on end

Isn’t that London is now a hellhole, actually it is very nice in many parts - is more that it is undergoing a process of (avoidable) ‘enshittification’ where quality of life on certain metrics gets slowly worse over time. So easy to tolerate but things are still worse than before Image
London in the summer, wow. And maybe even you man clapping some naija or argentinian or punjabi ting you don’t even mind the real big change you’re having too much fun and who can blame you! But fact remains many QoL metrics degrading even if people often too hysterical about it!
