I’m also heavily surprised the inside of the museum was not better designed to handle a fire (suppression, construction, compartmentalization etc...).

Seems to be an old building that was also never designed to be a museum. From what I read here in news in my country they were just moving the most delicate objects to a newer, safer location. Terrible luck.

It was the home of the king of Portugal and 2 emperors. Was made a museum in 1892. So they had all the time to make any and all modifications as needed for museum over more than 100 years.

But they were too busy with more petty desires.

Ignorance is what hurts history the most, and we need history so that we can learn from it and better the future.

Can't disagree.

We had several millions of culture budget being given to millionaires artists of left wing to do their shows to no audience, but insufficient money (which was also improperly used) gave to this and several other museums. To make things worse the museum itself didn't generate enough revenue to pay itself. This is just another example of how bad government involvement in anything in Brazil usually leads to disgrace.

As a brazilian, I'm deeply ashamed of how much our government doesn't give a sh*t about protecting its own culture and public buildings... What a mess

Last I heard they don't seem to give a shit about their rain forests or indigenous tribes either.

You're not wrong. Brazilian politicians are some of the most corrupt in the world, so I feel like it's totally fair to say they don't give much of a shit about anything really

They give a shit about how much money they can rob.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

True, they had plenty of time.

More reason I wish the Punisher was real.

Same.
I think it's a common issue regardless of what nation you reside in or your political alignment... Where politicians more or less work and look after themselves rather than the people they are meant to be serving, the public.
