Do Brazilians feel left out of Latin America?

[Tannhauser]

Many things in the country are national, its easier to have a bubble effect in Brazil than in Ecuador, Uruguay, Chile, DR, Peru...

Most Brazilians live on the Atlantic coast. Apart from some states that border on Hispanic countries or even Suriname, Guyanas...

I realize that we are not so influenced by Hispanic culture. At least in my state. But I have friends in Peru, Argentina ... who consume Brazilian things. Language is a barrier issue, people can say no, because of the proximity of the two languages. But it still exists. It is cliche, but what unites us to the Hispanics is without a doubt football. And at some point in history we were all fucked up by Murica. hahaha

I always had the impression that you are like a subcontinent but if you have any kind of interest or knowledge from outside the central countries, it is Argentina.

And it is reciprocous. Recently I ve seen the serie Jesus, it s the best depiction of Jesus´s life on screen.

You are out, you are in the United States.

Here we have more relation with Brasil than the countries that most of you named in Fincher's thread. And we are talking about aprox 260 millions ppl.

You guys feel more connection to Brazil ? How you guys view Chile? Is It mostly a positive Influenced?

When I was at Santiago Airport, I noticed most of the international flights were to Argentina and Brazil, with far fewer going anywhere else.

At least that is what I see with the average brazilian citizen in my state, but I consume Peruvian, Argentine things and so on. Things like books, food and some movies.

And Mafalda is very famous here, because she's omnipresent in portuguese tests. haha Before the pandemic I wanted to take a trip through South America

People dont think about it

But yes, brazilians rarely describe themselves as "latino", Im not sure if other nations do that. People think countries like France, Portugal, Spain and Italy are as latino as Brazil, Argentina or Bolivia.

france? not

[bandeirante]

Because they are the only ones who's speak Portuguese all their neighbors speak Spanish. Growing up In Mexico I remembered watching some novelas/shows specially from Colombia & Venezuela and even popular novelas from Argentina In the 90s.


Probably some Mexican Television channels/shows are being broadcast to the Southern cone such as El Chavo del 8 and RBD etc

A los brasileños no les importa lo que les pase a sus vecinos y su cultura en Sudamérica, ¡mucho menos en México y Centroamérica y el Caribe!

[bandeirante]

Probably.

el término américa latina no se usa mucho en brasil, hablamos mucho de américa del sur.

Their only claim to fame is language, which, thank God, is not Spanish.

Well you know where to take the picture then.

BTW: Quino, the cartoonist, passed away 3 weeks ago.

Nahh.. Brazil shouldn't be forced to feel the need to be "accepted" by us . They are incredibly well off and proud of themselves and country just the way they are now.
