Disagree. Most Brazilians don't even see a benefit from the logging and ranching done in slashed Amazon rainforest. It's a subset of Brazilians, and that subset bares the blame here. Just labeling nationalities as deserving or undeserving blame is painting with too broad a brush, and ignoring the fact that it's mostly the ultra wealthy to blame here. A poor Brazilian in a favela is a victim. A regional governor ignoring illegal logging because they receive a kickback is not.
