I still crack up at Bloco da Esquerda being like the sole voice defending him while nearly every paper and party was wondering how much to punish him since football leaks lead to Cristiano Ronaldo's case getting public to the point they cheered on Piers Morgan's exclusive interview with him.

I’m a Benfica supporter but gently caress those morons who insist he’s Hannibal Lecter for exposing the rot of the soccer world.
Just hope that he divulges all he has access to, out of spite for the way he’s been treated by the portuguese justice

Newspapers were actually cheering on Kevin Spacey's accusers getting murdered and writing pieces on the Real People to Worry about, as they tried to wipe clean Prince Andrew's reputation and trying to make Epstein's ordeal as blasé as possible to make Cristiano Ronaldo look good. I am loving amazed that there wasn't a reaction to this other than a sassy cartoon about it.

Got some sources so I can see the rot? I know spanish so I can make out written portuguese if I squint

By the Ronaldo case you're referring to the rape case, right? That poo poo was real crazy, I saw even english speaking people trip over themselves to defend him and to 'withhold judgement' while facts of the case were just so in favor of the girl's story it's crazy (the whole bit with asking to write a letter to him does not sound like someone trying to extort money).

One of the breaking hard right parties's leaders decided to threaten to deport the representative of the breaking hard left party over a proposed law confronting Portugal's colonialism practices and is now trying to cover that up with "Well, I was doing an irony", despite the fact that his party's own manifesto does endorse that to be an idea and CDS did stuck to the manifesto precisely stuff like that.

Are we about to hear a cavalcade of Portuguese comedians and commentators get the bait and earnestly try to pin this as an ironic joke and trying to explain how big brained you have to be to properly enjoy that bit?

portugueses update, yesterday there was a anti racism march and joacine made a speech which had members of her (ex) party condemn her for hate speech
The speech in question was terse but mostly ammounted to "no anti fascists w/o anti racism" on a strict and aggressive black voice. Funny if this one gets admonished by the parliament unlike the actual cop lib

I would argue being anti-fascist is a little bit being anti-racism, you know, as a treat.i don't particularly like joacine but she's such a lightning rod for the worst people that I thank her for her service.

Lol ask him what does he think of the labour theory of value.then ask him if he thinks the labour theory of value was invented by marx.then ask him if he agrees with Adam smith.then ask him if he agrees with Adam Smith criticism of capitalism.then tell him to read volume 3 of capital and get gud.them tell him to stop reading stuff from the 18th and 19th century without analysis and read piketty capital.if he doesn't call him a uneducated schlub.
Joacine is great to make all the proto chuds come out of the woodwork, although I do think draping everything in idpol is a loosing proposition.there is a reason why the lady that came up with the term intersectionality is a Bernie supporter.

Given Publico tried today to sneak in a news item about "people saying math is racist on American schools" when one could easily Google the actual news item where it came from ( Surprise, it was just the Seattle School curriculum having a thing on people using math to do fake news and framed fighting that in social justice ), I'd say the press is a bit shook about anything left getting some power.

The Portuguese correspondent trying to bring up Bernie Bros is kind of amazing given , well, everything.

Also the Sic commentary on Sunday wanted to string Rui Pinto up again. I totally knew that as soon as they managed to drain the LuandaLeaks stuff, Luis Marques Mendes would be totally there to argue for him to get arrested again. "So why are people asking for whistleblower status... for a criminal??". After weeks of them suddenly remember who Cheslea Manning is and sort of remember what happened to the reporter that covered the Panama Leaks. That person is legit one of the worst people on the portuguese commentariat, and I'm including all of the Tucker wannabes, the paper full of Shapinos and the lady they hired specifically to be nice about Bolsonaro poo poo that lost her job once for asking the classmates of kids that died on a schooltrip to go see blossoming almond trees if they wanted to go with them.

Picture, if you may, an article talking about the US Healthcare system, and describing the cases on why people are pushing for reform, including singular cases, going thru the absurd means testing, the constant fundraising, etc etc.

Now picture if you finished that piece with "And because of that, we're for Bidencare". In late 2019.

Now consider that to be a general improvement compared to the person that is actually paid to talk about foreign matters, which just covers the subject of healthcare in the US (And the UK) in the most horrifyingly blasé way possible, relaying the concerns in an almost mocking fashion.

That's the state of reporting on these matters. You'll regret ever knowing what an american person is if you open a single newspaper here.

Full context, part translated for US-centric people: The media network that runs the largest Daily Mail ish tabloid is seeking to purchase the second largest private tv/news Network in Portugal. Said network is somewhat Fox News ish, down to also having the sole major pundit that bothers to criticize Bolsonaro and most US state department interventions to the point he humiliated the former leader of CDS on this, and the merger is straight up being done to clear that one guy out.

That vote was to get mechanisms to prevent said media conglomerates to get created.
