communism, environmentalism and anti-austerity fighting is cool and good and jeronimo de sousa is super cool and so is every member of PCP which is the name of a drug but it's actually the best fuckin party in europe because it throws this massive communist music and arts festival every summer and they're really good at helping kids go to school and defending democratic access to water, public transportation and work contracts which are things that are increasingly rare in Portugal so you should probably vote for them because there's like 300 million Americans and we're only 10 million starving portuguese and 70% of them don't vote so if 1% of USers voted for PCP they'd have the biggest majority in the history of portugal and that would be cool because it's very not cool to see portugal lose half a million people in four years of suicidal goverment.

so day four beocme a portuguese national and vote for CDU, also become an associate of Benfica and Belenenses and hell why not treat yourself to a pastel de nata or two since aftera ll that effort you deserve it.



Here's world renowned Toy supporting CDU, what are you awiting for camaradinha?

Yes, because life was just dandy under salazar, i mean sure there was a secret police, war in the colonies, brutal levels of illiteracy and child death, and the true power in the hands of half a dozen families, but at least those them immigrants and gypsies knew their place.

Although a vote in PCP is of course, all well and good and proper for Full Comunism now, may i interest you in a vote for Bloco De Esquerda (BE), a coalition of small parties on the left which are like communist lite, only with a focus on social and economic issues, and less on supporting North Korea (which is good, because gently caress North Korea) and the plight of the proletariat (they're good, just not hardcore good as PCP)

They are led by Catarina Martins, which hilariously destroyed our current PM in a TV Debate, and also clowned all over PS leader Antonio Costa in another debate.

They also have in their ranks a Parliamentary Deputy which is arguably the fastest rising young politician in European Leftist politics today, Mariana Mortįgua:



Mariana Mortįgua rise to fame came about in the parliamentary inquiries into the BES case. BES was a private bank that hilariously imploded, dragging with them basically every major Portuguese corporation, while simultaneously exposing every CEO of said corporations as incompetent pieces of poo poo, it was pretty great apart from the bailout we had to do to the bank, which cost like 10% GDP.

Seriously, here is a goddamned Bloomberg piece about her:

Its pretty great, especially the end


She also has a twin sister in BE, which is as bad rear end as her.




And here is Jeremy "The Marx, only not really" Corbyn himself at a Bloco de Esquerda simphosium thingy:

So come this Sunday, do the right thing, and go watch some Benfica .

you're forgetting the most important "f"s my friend: fado and



his policy of drafting young portuguese men to go fight in hopeless colonial wars on behalf of entitled colonials also helped create vibrant Portuguese expatriate communities in places like Toronto, where to this day, Portuguese immigrant children have the lowest graduation rates by ethnicity: http://www.thestar.com/news/world/2011/03/08/fight_portuguese_dropout_rate_school_trustees_say.html

Or maybe that Salazar was a huge rear end in a top hat that didn't give a poo poo to the country and only cared about a few plutocratic families.
