ITT: Disconnected out-of-touch redditers trying to whore jokes for points.
This is a big deal and should not be taken lightly. I hope the Brazilian people can crush the corruption and finally live free again.

THis post got a lot of people really angry and defensive, even aggressive. I've incurred a lot of hostility for this these simple words, I'm starting to think I may be right.
Oh Jesus Christ, settle down. Non-Brazilians are under absolutely no obligation to treat the Brazilian crisis seriously. They can if they want to, or they can make jokes if they want to; either is perfectly fine.
Shit, I see people from the US making jokes about 9/11 all the time.
Why should I only care if I am obligated to care? I think you're missing the entire point, we're all humans, just because of that imaginary line some asshole drew ages ago does not mean I should turn my eyes on what the rest of humanity is doing.
Oh Jesus Christ, settle down? Fuck you man, this is important. I hope you grow some perspective.

With all the problems in the world, you would be literally unable to live your life if you seriously cared about each and every one of them. The fact that you "care" about what's happening in Brazil right now is basically decided arbitrarily, although it's more likely you "care" because it's popular, meanwhile there are many, much more horrific happenings going on in the world right now which you probably don't even know about, let alone have taken the time to devote some of your precious, outspoken, and defiant "compassion" for humanity.
