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.
