    The Americas 🇧🇷 Federative Republic of Brazil Discussion Megathread

    Working-class Hindus are probably easier to assimilate than working-class non-Muslim Africans, just so long as the working-class Hindus are not as dysfunctional as the Roma are. Here in the US, Hispanics assimilate better than blacks do unless we're talking about elite black immigrants and their...

    The Americas 🇧🇷 Federative Republic of Brazil Discussion Megathread

    Well, the US primarily attracts cognitively elite immigrants outside of Latin America and Europe appears to be getting more and more fed-up with the working-class Muslims whom it has imported in recent decades.

    The Americas 🇧🇷 Federative Republic of Brazil Discussion Megathread

    I'm inclined not to believe claims of election fraud without pretty good evidence, such as that which existed in Ukraine in 2004. Are the cartels there in charge of illegal logging and mining? Is the EU actually willing to accept poor Indians in large numbers if these Indians will actually...

    Importing more could help ensure that victory margins are more decisive, no? Lula only won with less than 51% of the total vote, after all. Not exactly a giant margin! Theoretically you could build more in Brazil's eastern territories, though the potential there is more limited. What about...

    What I find interesting is that Brazilian leftists are not pro-mass immigration even though Brazil could presumably theoretically attract a lot of immigrants from other Latin American countries as well as from places such as India, Vietnam, and the Philippines.

    But Brazil has been a historical country of immigration, no? Well, relatively speaking, at least. It was 7.3% immigrant in the early 20th century, apparently. https://archive.ph/IuCIe

    There's a keyhole solution here; specifically charging immigrants some kind of entry surtax or something like that. Or maybe denying immigrants citizenship and instead making them lifetime guest workers and taxing an additional part of their income and giving the money to natives. Of course...

    Once Brazilians will find out about this, though, will they become more supportive of mass immigration into their country? At least so long as it doesn't come from heavily Muslim countries? Hindus and non-Muslim Asians often make pretty good immigrants. :) Bluff in what way?

    The Americas 🇧🇷 Federative Republic of Brazil Discussion Megathread

    Well, I'm just wondering because, in theory, if Brazil wants a population boost, then it could accept many more immigrants from places like India, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, and East Asia. India especially is a huge reservoir for potential immigrants considering that it has over a...
