      Despite being a fish of African origin, it has been absorbed by the native Amazonian riverine cultures. It is a fish widely used in the struggle for food sovereignty by indigenous peoples and also one of the Fish used in rituals and celebrations.

      Brazilian indigenous culture remains alive, And tilapia became a symbol of their struggle and resistance…

        None of that means this has anything to do with them, animal skin grafting was first done in Egypt, the Fish comes from Egypt, and the research of being able to convert Tilapia skin into something usable for grafting was done by modern Brazilians who realistically have basically nothing to do with the indigenous people

          The tilapia come from indigenous communities…

          Indigenous communities are not something old or ancient. They are modern brazilians, they still exist; many Brazilian scientists are indigenous, many still live in villages… I’m not saying they invented this.

            “They are modern Brazilians” they are less than 1% of Modern Brazilians, there wasn’t a lot of them to begin with, and the Columbian Exchange bringing diseases and the Portuguese doing their thing certainly didn’t help, the average Brazilian is overwhelmingly European genetically, with chunks of African DNA being common, but actually indigenous to Brazil is basically nothing, to say this is “many” is genuinely absurd, there is more Brazilians in the USA than there is Indigenous Brazilians, and most of these indigenous Brazilians are Portuguese speaking Catholics who don’t care that much for their culture.

              I literally live next to a tribe… And I have friends who live in tribes. I took uarani classes at university because we offer classes in the native language of the tribes of Rio de Janeiro…

              My country is vast; nothing is so absolute.

                1. This is a logical fallacy and you have not disproven any of my claims. They have nothing to do with the original post, literally nothing.

                2. The Guarani aren’t of Rio de Janeiro, it’s pretty widely accepted that they never really settled that far east, like sure there was a few of them probably but there was nothing major going on there, which is why their hold on that land was destroyed so quickly, because it was literally outskirts they hadn’t settled much of.

                  Please… Research the Guarani Mbyá, who live in Tekoa Ara Hovy, Espraiado, Maricá, Rio de Janeiro, my hometown… I literally gave these people a history lesson as part of my university’s training program…

                  Can I ask why the fuck you decided to antagonize a joke? Wtf girl… Do you want to write an article about how aristocracy and nobility aren’t truly biological concepts? Because, damn it, you’re being ridiculously annoying for nothing.
