i'm just going to say a few words about what happened because i see some misunderstanding and while i don't agree with people sending hate to anyone ever, i think there are some points that explain why things took such a turn yesterday after the debate
first of all, all the hate towards baghera is unjustified. nothing can explain that, she's a candidate and she was on the debate to argue with the other candidates. period.
now, about why some brazilians are really upset with aypierre and i think this is justified is because he made some comments like:
compared q!mike to h1tler and joked about it.
made jokes about forever being arrested on his flight to france for drug trafficking.
complained (jokingly) about the brazilians being too loud.
he already apologized and everything is fine now, but i hope this makes you understand why brazilians are (rightfully) upset at the stereotypes that were being shared by him (and antoine, if i'm not wrong). i don't want to bring any negativity because i do believe everything is fine now, but i don't like how people are just pointing fingers at the brazilian fandom when they do have some reason to be upset.
especially after the conversation quackity had a few weeks ago on the qsmp, about how he felt like his culture was constantly mocked and underappreciated under the disguise of jokes by other people.
i don't think aything can explain making jokes about h1tler at any circumstance, but maybe it's a cultural difference.
the second point is that latinos + drug trafficking... okay, what's next, asking if we have internet? it's just blatantly disgusting (and something that happened a lot to quackity on the dsmp). both forever and cellbit have talked about how, although they can join in on the fun and the jokes about drugs, they think this is a sensitive topic.
and the last one, once again, another stereotype. yesterday when cellbit was talking to aypierre or antoine (idr which one of them) at the favela, they made a comment about cellbit being loud and he immediately rushed to check his mic settings and when he asked if his mic was scuffed like forever's, they were like "ah, it's just a brazilian thing."
although there may not be a intent to upset, a cultural difference, a "different type of humor" or reinforce stereotypes, i just wanted to make sure everyone understood why brazilians were acting the way they were yesterday.
