Oh boy, I look forward to seeing which candidate Our Portuguese Centre-Right apparatus chooses as the Sane, Responsible choice so they drag like whatever 5 brazilian reporters/pundits they have on staff to berate them harder for not having a Third Way and harder until by the end of September I can't open a paper here without seeing the last page some weirdo just screaming about Brazilian people being the descendants of African Slaves and thus "barely sentient apes".

Well, now that Lula has put his chips on Haddad, surely there will be no Portugal: Silly Brazucas your substitute is also corrupt! Why can't you go third way sweaties. Hewwo... HEWWO??? Bolsenaro is a non entity you goofballs???

Globo has also cancelled releasing popularity polls since they would give Lula and PT a way larger margin of success, so yeah they're kind of freaking out and the Haddad corruption accusations seem to be bullshit. The strategy seems to be they hope to stall enough the PT vote so they can slam Haddad with said charges, and hope Bolsenaro can get the share. At least the comments on that piece are telling them to gently caress off, and Publico doesn't usually have a readership that leans that way. Maybe we'll get another piece on how its illogical to support Haddad by some hosed up monster again! Kunster has issued a correction as of 14:15 on Sep 5, 2018 |

Huh, Michael Temer finally got indicted for corruption. Looks like he finally outlived his usefulness.

That's bc at the moment several media outlets are also doing the same thing of treating Bolso fans the same way Trump fans do. God knows how many times I've seen a worried ex police commander rambling about not being able to murder more, chuddy people on the border cities moaning on how vz refugees are uppity or Norman Rockwell esque figures rambling on just how women and minorities have gone too far on portuguese telly and papers, including a segment where "ele nao" is viewed as slacktivism by bored women that should be on tupperware parties instead. Marielle Franco is treated here in the same way Heather Meyer or JO COX that got murdered are viewed: "someone has died, for political reasons, i guess, should we even wonder what lead to it, nope let's just tie that to tone and populism instead and say that Haddad, Democrats (I know!! I KNOW BUT ACTUALLY GETTING PORTUGUESE TV TO SAY "DSA" IS IMPOSSIBLE, hell Jeff Flake and Mccain were seen as the main opposition to Trump) and Corbyn are just as fearmongering as their opponents." Hell I've seen that pic of Bolso wearing that Ceara hat a whole lot this week onoutlets without even a single "hi here's why he's wearing that hat".

I'm honestly stumped at this point. Diario de Noticias maybe??

I'm amazed that there's not a single "Oh yeah Bolsa Familia exists and PT is why that's a thing" piece. Only "Vote Haddad to stop Bolso" and the end of that CDS interview where the head is hoesntly trying to juggle "must stop socialist march" but also "We're the reasonable right even if we want the US ideal of police enforcement, drug policy and healthcare". Hell, i honestly hope a brazilian person gives her an earful on one of her comitees to "meet real people". Kunster has issued a correction as of 11:55 on Oct 25, 2018 |

Most of the Portuguese Press has either done the "Actually, it's the Left that did this" or "Bolsenaro is the candidate for normal people, why are you close minded about this", the entirety of the Right Wing consensus has been doing the portuguese equivalent of Never Trump and the only thing that could stop Portugal from straight up inviting him and giving him a hero's parade of concerned but understanding solemn admiration is if you get one of the Bolso kids to spit on a fountain or call Cristano Ronaldo a dreaded homosexual.

I think if there's a silver lining to this, it's to see the portuguese government in the future honestly try to make up for having a major meltdown and for constantly sending collective rape threats over spitting on a fountain to the future environment minister to not sell off more of the Amazon Forest. I wish our Procuradora actually reserved her middle finger to the portuguese for thisand not over people being worried about... everyting else about Bolso, really.
