As a brazilian I can say that you must keep thinking about those things and someday you'll understand why your arguments are full of prejudice and ignorance.

- guiraldelli 5y agoWould you mind to make a clear counter-argument, so it informs all of us what "arguments are full of prejudice and ignorance" and why? I found the arguments very well rounded, with good references, sound math, and a window to personal experience that reflects the lives of many back in Brazil. I am not going to pour more anecdotal evidences to reinforce the original argument, but there is a widespread problem of impunity in Brazil: the low-hanging fruits (known “chicken burglars”) are severely punished, in my opinion, while the extreme cases (both assassins and politicians) are “roaming free”. As many things in Brazil, I have the impression that justice is only “para inglês ver” (just for the show). At last, I suspect you might be biased by your own prejudices when reading and reasoning on the arguments of superflit. Thus, I think it is important to neutrally reason and point out the flaws of the argumentation, as well as show new perspectives, instead of an empty, straw-man attack, full of personal sentiment behind it.
