This is a translation written from portuguese to english. A draft forgotten in time.
The true nature of Brazilian society is nothing more than the remnants of cursed nobles who, out of greed and a lack of will—will in the noble sense of the soul, the will to create and define something worthy—left us what we have today. Just as the English used America to build and define a colony instead of just a point of extraction, the Portuguese used Brazil in the most senseless way possible: they simply used one of the best geographic positions in the world to extract resources instead of establishing a new empire. Portugal, a tiny and useless strip of land, could have become the new Rome, but thanks to its poor culture—shaped by nothing more than fat barbarians—we ended up with the real definition of a cage without bars: thousands of kilometers held together by nothing but a system of bureaucracy and criminality so massive that it isn’t just aggressive in the physical sense, but political, intellectual, linguistic, and cultural. What they created reflects their tribal and unrefined origins.
Enslaving and degrading people isn’t some uniquely Portuguese sin—this happened everywhere, even Africans captured their own. The difference with Portugal is simply their true ignorance of economics, because colonialism didn’t make them rich; it made them dependent on an unstable, genuinely poor economy ever since the first drop of sugarcane juice was squeezed out.
The Portuguese case mirrors perfectly the post-Roman world and its so-called victors, something you can apply to almost all of Europe, the Americas, and their religions. The world was killed before we even had the chance to see it alive. God is dead and we’re the ones who killed them.
