É gente assim que me faz sentir orgulho do país 💚💛
Interesting, so Google was all bullshit even back in 2007, "don't be evil" and "radical transparency" being façades that fooled everyone outside. I was finishing high school at the time and fully believed they were good guys, even if I didn't like their Chrome browser.
100% Casa Grande e Senzala feels.
As for the business-casual laugh at slashing the "cost" of the Brazilian workforce, well, that just feels like the same old song the country has seen since it became a colony for USA commercial interests back in the early 1900s. I also thought one-dimensional villains didn't exist and were stupidly unrealistic, until Bolsonaro was elected.
One thing that might interest you is reading The Dawn of Everything, if you haven't already. One of the first chapters explains how the native americans of the Great Lakes region had excellent arguments against the "civilized" society of the europeans, and it was their arguments that started the enlightenment in yurop.
