How come Portugal become irrelevant in Brazil after a few years?

[Heather Duval]

I assume I only heard about Portugal when Im in this forum and prob most Brazilians too
US controls Brazil media and society lol
I remember when I was a kid my geography teacher was talking about good cities/places and he was mentioning NY a lot, I didnt heard about any European city.
even Iberian Brazilians makes jokes about them:

I think if Brazil was still dependend they would force us to buy everything from there

[Heather Duval]

I am proud to be Brazilian like most are. Our nation is beautiful and we dont want to be associeted with others.

i think that also happened with Hispanic nations and Spain,
i think Latin America did their own thang

brazil:
i think there are many reasons
1 because of our independency
2 a lot of italians, germans etc immigrants
3 accents

yeah true but also because of culture, rich black culture, the most influential culture in the world is black

[Heather Duval]

btw i know german brazilians that dont consider themselves german but brazilians and they are proud of it
gisele bundchen has never mentioned germany on her interviews
only when people asks for her ancestors

[Heather Duval]

yeah true but also because of culture, rich black culture, the most influential culture in the world is black

today i was watching an honour for a dead brazilian singer on tv
her name is clara nunes and she was saying in one interview that brazil is rich in culture and religion because we are a mix of black and portuguese lol

[Heather Duval]

clara nunes was prob 20% black
its funny how MANY mixed people, browns etc knows their portuguese ancestry
they all have recent iberian ancestry
grandparents
great grandparents or something
and i have to log on TA and read things like " blacks only have iberian ancestry due to rapes"
not true at all in BRAZIL

Because Brazil is situated in the Americas where the USA completely dominates. Portugal is a small country so it's natural it's influence is not large.

Dude, you said Brazilians don't care about America or its entertainment culture. You even made a thread mocking American pop culture and yet here you are saying the exact opposite. I want my trolls to be intelligent, is that so hard to ask? A troll should be aware of what it said in the past or it just looks stupid when they say the exact opposite later.

I don't even think you're a fag now. You're probably some weirdo who likes pretending he's a fag online. You probably have a wife and kid but think it's amusing to be a fag on an internet forum.

Those are not the threads I was referring, too. You chimped out over American pop culture once because I was saying something about Brazilian culture being overly sexual and so you went on about American pop culture. You even rambled about it in the chat box in an attempt to bait me. I found it humorous that you were upset by what I said considering you spend a good portion of your time on this forum validating that stereotype of Brazilians.

Brazilians do care about American culture, its not my opinion but records
google for every like for "most international famous singer in brazil or that sold more albums" youll found only anglos speakers
when is not anglo they are actually spanish speakers
shakira and julio iglesias are ideed famous here
the rest are beyonce
madonna etc
You claimed Brazilians are whores and shits like that based on pornstars, while im even virgin. American pop culture still something disgusting that every kid in this country know
Because i like Beyonce doesnt mean i support shits like Selena gomez, 0% talent and thats what american culture makes us believe= she is something. American pop culture is fully of whores and sluts in a great %. When i was watching snl i thought i was watching some porn movie. Hannah montana and Miley cyrus was both popular in Brazil, and thats not a good influence for our kids.

beyonce solds more albums than even our singers here
