Is Portugal the most based country? I had no idea that it has been run by socialists/communists. Not a single right-wing party is popular there. Can anyone redpill me on Portugal?

Reading the wikipedia article it doesn't seem so different from Germany or France, in terms of the political content of the ruling two parties.

All I know about Portugal is from Mircea Eliade's Portugal Diary, in which the former Iron Guard fascist writes candidly that he would be fine with a socialist Europe, rather than the barbaric Europe devoid of culture that the Nazis proposed.

Most probably they're just socdems and many of those "independents" might be right-wing.

I know Antonio Guerres, the current Secretary General of the United Nations, and a socialist, is from Portugal.

speaking of weird things on wikipedia:

Bangladesh's National Socialst Party en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jatiya_Samajtantrik_Dal

Really not that weird. India has Maoist militias, and a marxist government in Kerala.

The Mainstream Meteor just doesn't inform us of this stuff, so you can imagine my surprise when I learned it.

Actual Portugese here, ever since the Carnation Revolution we have been pretty Left leaning, especially compared to other European countries, but only by NeoLiberal standards, it's just run-of-the-mill Social Democracy, definitely not actual Socialism, and certainly not Communism.

Let me clue you in for a moment.
The Social Democratic Party here, is pretty much the right wing. They call themselves social democrats but they've always been some flavour of center-right neoliberals.
LIVRE is champagne socialists at best. Same with Left Bloc, with maybe some more closet Trots.
The Portuguese "Communist" Party are just a collection of russophiles and tankies. They've been in decline year after year.
The most right-wing a party is here is the CDS-PP, which are just center-right "christian" democrats. They've been in fast decline and if the trends keep up they might even lose parliament presence within the decade.

The left is in dire need of a Temujin who can unite the tribes and overrun the world.

Can a third world amerifat move there? Asking for a friend.

How did the drug thing work out?

They all got less than one percent of the vote. The top three are socdems, commies and altsocs.

Actually really well, you'd be surprised.


Sure, I don't see why not, it isn't like Scandanavia where they put you through some insane vetting process to let you in, also it doesn't cost you an arm and a leg to live here.

How many people speak English?

Pretty much everyone.

Well then? Give me details, nigga, or at least a good source, please. I want this drug war madness to end as soon as possible, and the eyes of the world are on Portugal. I'd google this, but you know how the vast majority of media is shit.

People use drugs in their homes and it's not the bad kind of anarchy with a bunch of heroin addict degenerates living on the streets. Society didn't collapse. I'm surprised this isn't common knowledge.

Also the 4th strongest political force in the country, the strongest in the south. Worth mentioning.

any different would be unexpected.

Do you have outspoked lolbergs? Those are really strong here in Brazil ( and most of Latin America; Chile, Argentina, Peru, …) and Spain now has Ciudadanos.
Right-Wing "social democrats" are the worst.

Stupid question, because people are the same most everywhere, but what are the women like?

Yes. They're a part of the PSD. our "social democrat" party.

meant outspoken*

I didn't want to meme about flags, but if that's the level we're on I'm fine with it

Average in looks, in a good sense.

Not as slutty as most european women, but definitely more… cunning.

if you're not interested in sports then just give up.

I love French women. How do they compare?


It's not like I'm going to move to Portugal. I'm this guy
and I'm recalling a beautiful Portugese communist girl Eliade met who he had a brief affair with.

I'm not particularly interested in Football because I'm American, but I don't mind watching a game in a public bar.

Are they like Spanish women? I fucking love Spanish women.

and if you ever find yourself considering it. Don't, unless you like sports your social circle will be non-existant. If you don't mind being constantly alone then sure, why not. Just don't expect to live a relaxed life on a Portuguese wage.
90% of social gatherings in here revolve around it. it's disgusting.

I like sports, just not football because it's not big here. Never understood people who hate sports. I can understand not being into them but hating them reeks of posturing.

Don't worry, I would never move to Portugal unless it was for love, and even then only if it involved a beach. I have French and English citizenship, so if I ever moved to Europe it would be to France.

Sounds like where I live except it's all about American football here.

The problem is that it's constantly shoved in your face.

Don't know French women that well, but from what I can gather I'd say Portuguese women will be both nicer and bitchier, if that makes sense. They're never indefferent.


They're not as hot as the spanish, but they're less vain and more loyal.


Uma boa maneira de conhecer pessoas porreiras com interesses mais parecidos com os teus é juntares-te a uma organização política. Fica a dica, amiguinho leftcom.

Eu não tenho problemas nessa frente. Obrigada.
Convinha no entanto não projectares as inseguranças nos outros.

feet pls

kys

Que inseguranças te pareceram que projectei?

és má

Well yeah, I knew there wasn't some radical change in day to day life, but any numbers? Drug use went up or down? Drug-related crime? Deaths? Some drugs raised in popularity and others waned?

here, user. It's actually pretty cool.

PCP has generally maitained its votes in the past 10 years, but they are smaller when compared to 75-76.
They are very far from being a revolutionary party, it's basically just propaganda.
the socialists (PS) are socdems at best and more often than not are liberals; the communists (PCP) are socialists at best (I'd say hardly ever) and socdems generally. left bloc (BE) is the same but with more idpol (which is frustrating, as it often tarnishes their platform). PSD (socdem in name only) has dropped all pretences of being anything but liberal and CDS (centrists in name) is liberalism with social conservatism and some few idiot monarchists.

In name it sounds like socialist paradise, in reality it's the DUDE TURD WAYISM IS SOCIALISM LMAO XD of France and Italy>>1611585

However, note that drugs aren't legal, but decriminalized.
