What you just posted contradicts what you said. The concept of "whiteness" does exist in Brazil and there is even a small percentage of Brazilians with Germanic appearance.

Roughly 3% of Brazil, about 6 million or so are German

This is anecdotal, but the Brazilians I've talked to literally want nothing to do with the U.S definitions of "white". This is partly because race relations in Brazil are far more peaceful rather than the politically driven tensions that currently exist in the West. Ironically, it's actually Communists in Brazil who have been trying to force the topic of "race" in their country, and they've been importing Black Lives Matter to try and change their culture.

Yes, that is true, there is a leftist and media campaign to racialize Brazil, ironically it is the upper class and "LGBTQ"-type people, who are alienated from mainstream brazilian culture that are buying into it, while it is largely ignored and laughed at by the mixed-race population.

Aggressive, virulent blacks are being shoved down people's throats, and I can already sense a backlash, this is going to be a monumental failure. Even the leftists themselves are acknowledging that their efforts are making brazilians' opinion of blacks more negative.
