Take note, Portugal
European political scientists are blue in the face from constantly pointing out that accommodating the far right does not help centre-left parties win, and contributes to the rise of far-right parties. There's a mountain of data to support that.
But no, the galaxy-brained strategists must be right.

If we don’t signal our virtue every now and again - then so many believe they are utterly alone - “virtue signalling” is not there to say “aren’t I good” but “there are more of us than you might imagine” and “fuck you for demanding that only the brutal and the bullies may speak”

The irony of the Guardian investigation findings of the criminal records of those arrested protesting about the “sexual predators” holed up in the hotels. 2/5 of those arrested had criminal convictions for domestic violence or sexual violence.
It was never about “protecting women”. Simply racism

Nunca vi alguém mobilizar “liberdade de expressão” para algum grupo subjugado ou oprimido terem direito à fala. Toda vez que “liberdade de expressão” é evocada podem ter certeza que é a busca por carta branca para pessoas continuarem destilando preconceito sem quererem ser responsabilizados.

For all the blanket coverage it's getting today you wouldn't know that fishing contributes a grand total of 0.03% to the UK's economy, or that it is absolutely dwarfed by many other sectors, like the live music industry, which have been badly hit by Brexit but are rarely even mentioned
