He, again, confess and says he was there invited by the U.S, to update on U.S measures against Brazil. He says he asked for MORE sanctions against Brazil, including Russia-Like sanctions, like removing Brazil from Swift system.

>>2392066
well it's not played straight, it's played for satire. basically tony's son AJ reads Howard Zinn in high school and says columbus is a war criminal and Tony gets pissed at the libtard indoctrination, then in the same episode a bunch of native americans protest at a columbus statue and the mob gets butthurt about it and shows up as counterprotesters to bust heads, but they chimp out so hard they get arrested. it's satire of dumb italian mobster meatheads.

full transcript:
>William Bonner (Jornal Nacional Anchor): This afternoon, correspondent Raquel Krahenbühl found the congressman-on-leave from the PL party, Eduardo Bolsonaro, near the White House in Washington. Eduardo said he was there at the invitation of American authorities for an update on the reactions in Brazil to the tariffs. The congressman-on-leave once again defended the 50% taxation of Brazilian products. He linked Trump's surcharge to decisions made by Justice Alexandre de Moraes of the Supreme Court, and expressed a personal opinion about a possible application of other sanctions by Donald Trump against Brazil. He called these measures "levers."

<Eduardo Bolsonaro: I don't speak on behalf of any authority. But, this way, it's very likely that Trump will also use, will pull other levers to respond to Brazil.


>Raquel Krahenbühl (Reporter): What other levers would those be? What… what are you hearing around here?


<Eduardo Bolsonaro: Well, that's entirely at his disposal, right? You have the Magnitsky Act, you have IAPA, you have the freezing of assets, you have visa cancellations. If you look, for example, at what Brazil did with… what the United States, right, ends up doing in relation to Russia, there are several other measures, but always in the sense of restricting access to the banking market, to the North American consumer market, to the global financial system. Anyway, nobody knows what will happen, because now everything depends, everything is in Trump's hands, right? He took this problem upon himself.

>>2392157
America might leave NATO, but they would never join BRICS under a Republican administration because of the C in the name. "Can't be associating with a group with them no good commies in China in it!!"

Finished reading that article about Prighozhin and Russia that gay anon posted in the last thread and Jesus Christ. I’m more convinced than ever that if you ask Europeans what they think of Russians, they start to sound like their SS-Obersturmgrupenfuhrer grandpa. Like, American racism is bad, but like a lot of our culture it’s vulgar, superficial, and simplistic. It’s shit like calling someone slurs based on their appearance or claiming they’re born stupid or whatever. Full on Euro-racism is like
>”Because they kept submitting to the mongols, the Russians’ frontal lobes failed to fully develop due to kowtowing before the Khan. They cannot understand the idea of honesty, and when they sleep they all drool imagining women they can rape.”

Like holy fuck if we didn’t make the EU our bitch, they’d be saying some fucked up stuff about us.

>”The American is really the spawn of some admixture of European criminals with African barbarians. As such he’s quick to anger and prone to gaudy displays of wealth to attract mates.”

How do I stop myself from totally fucking blackpilling? Everything looks so completely fucked right now.

>>2392140
The Epstein thing pretty much ended my hope for any change within the system.

>No way that part of The Sopranos was legit? Lmaoooo Americans
Yeah younger gens of Americans might now know, but Italians used to be like the Jews with the ADL. They used to make a huge stink about the Italian mobster movies like Godfather and etc. for pushing negative Italian American stereotypes.

i took a vow when I was young to never take a loan and I still don't regret it. not that everyone can do that but I sometimes put off shit I needed for months or years so I could buy it all at once and not be indebted with exorbitant interest.

i am seriously on the edge of just trying to teach english abroad. not good jobs but none are worse than the best ive had so why the fuck not. i havent before bc family & organizing but at this point i am so poor & miserable idk if i have it in me to keep this up so much longer. at the very least if i could get a gig that pays for an apartment & has a monthly food allowance i'd be solid

yeah getting a job is fucked. i got laid off and have been unemployed for 2 years. i can only do that because i'm in a cheap housing situation and i saved every penny i could from the previous job. i'm honestly thinking i'm never getting another white collar job ever again. which means i'll become a retail wagie i guess. which means i'm never getting out of amerikkka. awesome.

>>2392176
They actually talk about that in the show lol, the mobsters and their wives end up being their biggest contributors too it's funny


>>2392163
yeah europeans are by default more racist than the average white american, and i mean that seriously. in the US average whites are more likely to be overtly violently racist but the average euroid is much more likely to be seething through their teethe about how their colonialism wasnt actually that bad & how "you dont ACTUALLY understand how bad the gypsies are!!!" seriously a great rule of thumb speaking to a euroid is figuring out their opinion on roma people. in some countries the majority think they should be ethnically cleansed. theyll tell you they knew a guy who knew a guy that got swindled. then theyll condescend to white americans about racism, sorry man ive been robbed multiple times by black americans & im not a sheltered sperg racialist

>>2392200
The funniest thing about white European racism is that they complain more about white nationals from other countries than about brown people

>>2392163
Soviets and Americans really did humanity a favor by gigacucking Europe at the end of WW2. If they didn't get partitioned between the American and Soviet spheres of influence and allowing the old colonial empires to wither away the Euroids would still be putting people in zoos.

>>2392200
The gypsy shit is what fully convinced me that Euros are worse with this shit plus the fact that the overtly racist anti immigrant sentiment is much more supported in Central Europe than it is in the anglosphere. Once the ICE raids started kicking off and suburbanites saw it with their own eyes the support for deportations started freefalling. Whereas in Europe I wouldn't be surprised if the next Brevik style attack happens and white people overtly support it

>>2392205
In public yes but they despise muslims

>>2392205
Annibale from the Italian and WWII episodes of Radio War Nerd put it best, if your family is from Milan it would be easier to bring a girl from Mali home to your parents than a Sicilian girl

>>2392200
I think when Matt Christman was talking about The Turner Diaries vs Camp of The Saints, he said something like while the Turner Diaries are ugly and explicit in their racism (there’s literally a scene where they talk about the exact demographics that end up hanged from lamp posts and what for) Camp of The Saints somehow came across as more racist. Like not even using human terms to talk about refugee boats, more like they’re some living plague.

This isn’t to totally defame the Europeans mind you, but Jesus it’s just a whole other level to this shit. Only thing that comes close, I think, is I had this ethics class once with a Korean exchange student, for some reason the professor was talking about the ethics of natural conscription and decided to ask the Korean dude about it. The guy was soft spoken and quiet, but then he said it was because of the Japanese invading and went into this extremely disconcerting diatribe where he’d intermittently say shit like:
>”And I hate the Japanese. I hate the Japanese. I want to kill the Japanese. They’re scum. I hate Japan.”

Not saying Koreans ain’t right to be angry over what Japan did to their country, but this guy was just ready for the Asian race war.

>>2392205
which isnt even surprising, like Oh? you hate your neighbor thats different from you? Wow! yes in The Colonies we have neighbors of many colors and languages and despite the many longstanding, viciously genocidal conflicts, some of which relate to literal chatteral slavery barely a few generations removed, most of us get along fine more often than not.

to be clear, i am not apologizing for americans, i am insulting europeans. i have endless gripes & resentments about amerikkka, but i also grew up hearing from libs talking about how progressive and tolerant euroids are and from conservatives about how communist and gay they are. and im a little bitter that my experience of meeting fucking dutch and french and germans has been them acting like they can talk about how backwards the US is rigjt before (some of them) going into how the colonies actually werent That Bad and also its ok to sterilize roma women. its despicable, its like they see black americans in a music video and think "youd have to be so uncivilized to do jim crowe to such a talented people…." guess what you pampered snowmonkey, a ton of blacks are criminals & addicts & vagrants, and so are my white family, and those are all my people so stop jacking off to your kendrick lyrical analysis and look in the mirror when you say poles are just arrogant and roma are just sneaky you fucking kraut

>>2392214
>>2392215
apologize im drunk and if you cant tell was just recently in conversation with european liberals lol

>>2392211
annibale is a fucking god i love that guy. radio war nerd would be the perfect /usapol/ podcast if a few spammers in here didnt derail the thread anytime someome talks about something that isnt 100% ideologically pure by the standards they got from instagram reels

don't worry guys, Zohran is totally a real revolutionary and not a dog of the democratic party.

Western women haven't been oppressed for decades now but that's inconvenient for their personal story of overcoming adversity.

>>2392259
No, they refuse to acknowledge the obvious. They will find billions of excuses for why everything will end up fine. When they are being put into mass graves they will mindlessly hope the soldiers will suddenly decide to let them go at the last second.

>>2392265
>Western women haven't been oppressed for decades
lol. oppression is more of a dial than a toggle. sometimes the lights dim without going off entirely. western women are still oppressed, they just aren't as oppressed as they were before, and they're not oppressed in the same way they were before. So there's less quantity, but also a different quality. Men are oppressed also in ways that women aren't. For example being expected to do the combat and the more dangerous forms of physical labor. I don't like when men and women try to deny each others' burdens exist. I think it's a sign of alienation. It makes me sad.

The Sopranos is like one of those fatalistic but satirical Russian novels except for Americans which is why it's hilarious. They kill more people than the actual mob did though.

David Chase had a big problem with the Italian-American anti-defamation stuff, seeing it as a reflection of low self-esteem. Also the Italian mob thing has become a national myth so picking it apart and being like "this is a shame on the Italians" neglects that the whole country has taken on the story as being about themselves. For whatever reason.

I think an aspect of (violent) white American racism is the self-conception of these guys as Conan the Barbarian / Snake Plissken-tier individualists armed with Smith & Wessons to defend themselves from Black Crime. The ultimate libertarians on steroids. There's a barbarian character to that, and it's also a fantasy and an archetype that they pick up. Civilization is essentially wicked, so load up on the guns and ammo.

I wonder to the extent that race discourse in Europe is shaped more by a belief (whether unconscious or conscious) that white European civilization is flat-out SUPERIOR. A European fascist youth group will have a wall adorned with names, written in gold, of giants of western art, philosophy, etc. Okay that exists among white supremacists in the U.S. too but I don't know how many of them really believe it deep down inside in some civilizational sense. I'd have to think about this more. The way Europeans talk about Russians as being subhuman is not how Americans talk about them. An American who wants to get tough with the Russians is more of a naked pragmatist who sees utility in threatening them with a big stick.

>Early in Ronald Reagan’s second term, he asked his Soviet counterpart a seemingly off-the-wall question. Ostensibly, he and Mikhail Gorbachev had come to Lake Geneva for an arms control summit. But on a private walk around the lake, Reagan turned to his Cold War enemy and said:

>‘What would you do if the United States were suddenly attacked by someone from outer space? Would you help us?’” Gorbachev later recounted. “I said, ‘No doubt about it.’ He said, ‘We too.’ So that’s interesting.”
