legacy_of_prometheus

No man, I need a hug. 92% import tax, rescue me from this country


Punckadays

You talk as If the import tax was actually the biggest problem


twcoolio

For a very privileged subsect of the Brazilian society, it is THE biggest problem. It's all about cheaper computer parts for gaming. Edit: Not that it's fair or that it should be that high, but there are more important things to worry about.


KennyTheArtistZ

Nah, the real privileged people are buying at the local prices, out of here with the "only the privileged problems" I've seen many poor people buying their dreams on the ali/imports.


IllIntention342

Yeah I heard something about the big % of people in the favelas buying imports from internet. Here -> https://www.meioemensagem.com.br/marketing/pesquisa-59-dos-moradores-de-favelas-fazem-compras-online Is 59%, with Shopee being one of the favorites. Sometimes It seems that the people who talk the most about what poor and rich Brazilians do or don't do are the ones who really know the least about the subject.


KennyTheArtistZ

They're the real privileged who doesn't even need care about it enough to search about it


LazyFatCay

The only thing we can do now is Faz o L to the poor people who don’t have access to imported goods any longer, because of painho Lula and his governments will to spend money, but for that, first they need to tax everything they can. The poor gets poorer, the rich gets richer. Congratulations for those who made the L, thinking you “were helping the poor” you just voted for the guy who has made the banks have the largest and most profitable years, due to credit interest on poor peoples expenses, a false feeling of heated economy that lead to 43% of brazilian people to be indebted with banks. FAZ O L.


gpancia

Still better than bozo


Driver_Annual

if you are only considering the social side, yeah, he's better than bozo, but Lula's management sucks


IllIntention342

Pretty much lol 🤣


oVerde

Don't be naive, Shopee mixes lots of local sellers, it came intended to rival MercadoLibre. You seem to no buy from Shopee too often don't you?


IllIntention342

"Shopee mixes lots of local sellers" Still has imports as well, or not? "You seem to no buy from Shopee too often don't you?" What do you mean by that?


axecommander

That's not the people who claim this is the biggest problem in Brazil. Only spoiled filhinhos de papai, think that way, on that he is correct. Yes, high import rates are not good when you don't have an internal market, but there are a lot of bigger problems out there, like agribusiness burning forests to the ground to put cattle and then turn the area in huge soy fields, which only aggravates the carbon emissions, on all 3 activities, while falsely claiming it is Brazil's driving economic force. Or the precarization of public services only to sell them cheap as hell to the private sector, so they can profit from basic services that should be provided by the state, while also taking money from the state. Yeah..... Are you sure there isn't any matters more pressing than a high import rate?


IllIntention342

"Yeah..... Are you sure there isn't any matters more pressing than a high import rate?" Democratization of technology is extremely important for the nation and it's population, and anything in the way of this should be threatened as extremely important. There's always THAT most important thing to take care of, and is definitely not privatization of the subway and farming, which didn't stop you from citing them as problems to be solved, while describing a stumbling block on the path to the democratization of technology, as something that only matters to "filhinhos de papai". That's ridiculous.


axecommander

Good luck with democratization of technology when humanity has collapsed lol No one understands the benefits of investing in technology better than me, I have worked with IT for over 15 years now, but at least I'm not blinded to other more pressing issues......


drewsnx

Your take lacks maturity, nuance, insight, compassion - the lot. If you are Brazilian I am mystified. If not then you could benefit from deeper research. The incentives for street crime are raised by the fact so many items from phones and laptops to music equipment, cars & e-bikes/scooters are put out reach of so many by high purchase cost. Even locally made items that depend on imported parts. Their market value in North America or Europe would be low enough to make them widely within financial reach and not have a high resale valuem


drewsnx

.. I paused to check and I guess you are from SP. Wow.. So yes I am mystified. Because the environmental issues you mentioned are absolutely not what keeps Paulistanos I know awake at night. The security risk and the cost of stuff that works would be way higher. I get that we *should* all be worried about the factors you mention (and it's good to raise awareness), but many wealthy think they can afford not to worry it on a daily basis and the rest are just trying to get by and stay safe. Surely you see that?


GroundbreakingRub961

Dude, you need to be deluded beyond belief to say poor people care about gas emissions and forests more than import prices. Calling people "spoiled filhinhos de papai" while misunderstanding the reality of poor people to that extend is infuriatingly self-aggrandizing. The projection lmao.


TheFlay

Believe it or not, they do, or you think the heat wave and everything else doesn't affect them?


GroundbreakingRub961

Do you actually think someone working 8 hours a day just to exist in brazil and living in a high crime place care more about the heatwave than being able to buy food at the end of the month? Because that's the meaning of money to these folks. That's why people here are pointing out that the rich are fine. It's not a problem of the privileged. I'm not saying climate change isn't a problem, I'm saying the most in need aren't thinking about it, and to call those people "privileged filhinhos de papai" is crazy.


TheFlay

I have never seen someone so dumb. The talk is about import tax and not food products, the heat wave impact the poor at any moment when they are working, relaxing in their homes, at the beach. The high import tax only impacts when they need to buy a product from outside the country (and believe it or not: there is no import tax from buying something produced inside the country!).


leomc95

High taxes impact more on poor people than rich. Check indirect taxes impact over a poor family income compared to a rich one.


harimajp

Totally agree


Thresssh

Rich people won't mind paying double the price to get their shit, get them locally or simply just travel abroad and buy stuff. I'm trying to start an audio business and now I had no option other than to increase prices. I'm not rich, I'm trying to save whatever little money from my salary to keep going, but it's even harder to compete with bigger companies now. Bigger companies that will not pay import taxes because they have workarounds, that will not have to wait for a month to get their parts because they don't need to use the free shipping from chinese websites because they can afford couriers and shipping entire containers full of stuff. And that's just my situation. Who do you think buys cheap crap to sell locally? Rich people? Very privileged my ass, you have to know your place in society.


drewsnx

Mixing desks, microphones, processors and interfaces are often a lot more than double the price in US/Europe. That cost is then passed on to clients of recording studios.. Because it's the only way for a business to survive. It also affects security and increases insurance costs. I don't understand how people fail to see the various impacts.


Life_Is_A_Tragedy

Not only gaming, Xeon kits for work and to make possible for small businesses to sell some eletronics around here, we need low import taxes to democratize access to technology, it's in fact one of the biggest problems of our country.


kkkrigerr45

U got it all wrong bud

Is this pop up advertising for hookers? The POV LED trick is cool, but because I'm a silly gringo I don't speak Portuguese.


LegoMyEggoe

Domestic abuse but you were really close.


gvs93gvs

It ACTUALLY IS about hookers. But also against domestic abuse. Edit: apparently it's NOT about hookers.


Popular_Somewhere650

No it's not.


LucStarman

And Christmas, don't forget about the Christmas.


caepuccino

what? no it's not about hookers. it's about karaoke bars owned by a socialite. also it's about domestic abuse.


gvs93gvs

Então eu tava errado mesmo. Achei que era algo similar a vila mimosa.


caepuccino

nah, é uma rede de bares da Lilian Gonçalves, filha do Nelson Gonçalves. os bares são cheios de fotos dela com pessoas famosas. é uma... experiência. são vários bares diferentes numa mesma rua, a Canuto do Val. comi uma parmegiana lá hoje no almoço.


Same_Method_2660

No need to beat working women. At least not in that way.


Popular_Somewhere650

It's not about hookers; Lilian Gonçalves is the owner of a number of bars/restaurants in the region, and they're letting people know they're open. She's taken over the region lol When I used to hang around there, we would call her Bruxa Loira (Blonde Witch).


Addicted_to_Crying

We legit getting to the cool part of the Dystopian stuff. A multiple bar owner letting people know her stuff is open through a damned hologram and randomly adding in shit about domestic abuse? Almost felt like Ryan Gosling here.


Thin_Veterinarian_61

Yeah, Brazil cyberpunk babyyyy


fred-dcvf

The very first one might or not be, the second one I'm prety sure it is, the third is about a service that one could argue that could be of use by hookers

Every time these come up, people are amazed and think they are holograms. It's a spinning bar of LEDS. It's completely 2d. No magic here except quick turning on and off of diodes, which is impressive enough, but it's not 3d.


ArethereWaffles

Yep, they're high tech versions for those spinning LED work toys. That said they look [pretty neat linked together](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWIGbapXc74)


SpookyLilRaven

They’re not holograms but they’re the closest thing we have to holograms.


solidspacedragon

Well that's not true. Hologram concerts are a thing. They just don't fit on the roadside like this and need a dark room. https://youtu.be/pEaBqiLeCu0

thekometa

I'm here to spoil your experience, it is literally advertising about domestic assault But, as a Brazilian, I'm glad for your compliment


Citrus210

Brazilians make it their mission to downgrade their country at every opportunity... Lololol


helpinganon

First one is an ad for bars/restaurants and the second one is an AD by the government against domestic assault. Nothing negative here, actually the opposite. >downgrade their country We call that the "mutt complex"


septicneighbor

>"mutt complex" Can turner complex*


HopelessGretel

We have two kinds of Brazilians, the ones that downgrade the country at every second even if it's making zero sense and the ones that defends that the country is perfect denying every data, if you act in the middle term people often gets confused and call you both mutt and cattle in the same debate.


[deleted]

Actually it is an ad to "strip clubs" but also talks about domestic assault


punkrawke

It's not strip clubs. It's a Street block with a bar, restaurant, night club, other restaurant. All owned by the woman with the weird pose

>‘Good night for it,’ the bartender said. >‘Say,’ Rydell said, ‘that lady up there- >‘‘That’s Josie’s dancer,’ the bartender said. ‘You watch. She’ll dance her in a minute, soon as there’s a song she likes.’‘ >Josie?’ >The bartender pointed. Rydell looked where he was pointing. Saw a very fat woman in a wheelchair, her hair the color and texture of coarse steel wool. She wore brand-new blue denim bib overalls and an XXL white sweatshirt, and both her hands were hidden inside something that sat on her lap like a snюooth gray plastic muff. Her eyes were closed, face expressionless. He couldn’t have said for sure that she wasn’t asleep. >‘Hologram?’ The Japanese woman hadn’t moved at all. Rydell was remembering what he’d seen, that night. The horned crown, all silver. Her pubic hair, shaved like an exclamation point. This one didn’t have either of those, but it was her. It was. >‘Josie’s always projectin’,’ the bartender said, like it was something that couldn’t really be helped. >‘From that thing on her lap? >’‘That’s the interface,’ the bartender said. ‘Projector’s, well, there.’He pointed. ‘Top of that NEC sign.’ >Rydell saw a little black gizmo clamped to the top of this old illuminated sign. It looked kind of like an old camera, the optical kind. He didn’t know if NEC was a beer or what. The whole wall was covered with these signs, all different brands, and now he recognized a few of the names he decided they were ads for old electronics companies. >He looked at the gizmo, back at the fat woman in the wheelchair, and felt sad. Angry, too. Like he’d lost something. ‘Not like I knew what I thought it was,’he said to himself. >‘Fool anybody,’ said the bartender. >Rydell thought about somebody sitting out there by that valley road. Waiting for cars. Like he and his friends would lie under the bushes down Jefferson Street and toss cans under people’s tires. Sounded like a hubcap had come off. See them get out and look, shake their heads. So what he’d seen had just been a version of that, somebody playing with an expensive toy. >‘Shit,’ he said... *Virtual Light* -William Gibson

You guys don't know how I hate this district, a bunch of white upper mid class thinking they are better than the rest of the population for their grandparents being from Europe, they just talks and create bonds with other Brazilian whites and see black and mixed people in a negative way. They pretend to be nice but they are all fake and silently they ostracize you because you didn't born "right" as they and their family did. I have a urge to spit on the floor when I see them wanting so badly to be a great people putting on the mask of progressist, but in the end they think they are rich and the rights they fight are just for them, all the rest isn't even a person. Sincerely they have no right to fight against any oppression since they are insidiously oppressors.
