My state is a large poultry exporter, and neighbors the one with the outbreak, weird that this isn’t on the news here.

They are “media transformers” and might be useful if limited to it.

Knowledge retrieval certainly not, as “they” know nothing besides how likely one data fragment is to appear near other data fragments.

Not false, I also don’t like it, but I’m not wrong.

Pedro II put Brazil well on it’s way to become a global superpower.

The only one that came somewhat close was later Getúlio Vargas, but he was an asshole cruel dictator.

Maybe Lula in his first and second terms might deserve a distant third place.

I don’t disagree, but still better than all the other leaders the country had.

The following dictatorship put up a lot of antimonarchist propaganda, but still today abolishing slavery is celebrated by all as an achievement of his government.

(Note: I’m not a monarchist)

In Brazil the monarchists get some sympathy because emperor Pedro II was the only competent and halfway decent leader the country ever had.

Yes, certainly!

But I think there’s a difference between corrupt hypocrites not practicing a “reasonable” theology, and a corrupt theology supporting a corrupt practice.

There are those that care, but the nature of actually following it means doing it quietly and without seeking recognition.

Heresy then?
It’s a biblical interpretation framework based on giving theological significance to the order of the books in the Bible, ignoring previous history of theology and history of the formation of the Bible.
Theology is one the oldest sciences, it has Method; Dispensationalism throws it away and does it’s own thing.

Just to note: these books are heavily based on dispensationalist pseudo-theology.

But I agree that trump is an Antichrist

If I time traveled to the same geographical region, considering I’m in South Brazil, if I don’t get immediately killed by some jungle animal or tropical disease, I’d probably end up starting a pandemic among the natives.

It is a nice backpack tho…

Why this controversy now? Tools like StyleGAN could do this for years already.

Now if only Macron stopped blocking the EU-Mercosur trade deal…

Here in Brazil voting is legally considered a duty, not a right, nobody gets to not vote unless they have adequate justification, otherwise there’s a fine.

A Tilley hat.

One year too early for the title? The 21st century started on 2001.

In theory the capitalist “free market” was supposed to mean that customers are free to choose, it was supposed to be a better alternative to the monopolies of mercantilism.

Still western, but I sometimes see posts coming from the Brazilian lemmy.eco.br

The Portuguese did much worse, I wonder how aware they are.
There was a point in time where 90% of Brazil’s population was enslaved black peoples.

Iguaçu Falls, on the border between Brazil and Argentina. Nearby you could also visit Itaipu Dam, formerly largest in the world.
Going a bit into the same Brazilian state of Paraná, there’s also the amazing Vila Velha park, with incredible sandstone formations.

The US Democratic party is also a neoliberal right-wing party, just a bit more moderate.
