Part of the reason why I mentioned the brazillians earlier: its one of those groups nobody fucking sees and few people can even identify on sight (they're even actively leaving the country as shortsighted legislation and urban migration fuck over whatever societal cohesion they previously enjoyed), yet just keeps cropping up when you drink the koolaid just to see colour of stick is really up their ass. Completely anecdotal conclusion I know, but its the best I can figure atm.
