That is an interesting coincidence, because from 1933–1974 Portugal was a parafascist régime: people have claimed that the head of state was no fan of Adolf Schicklgruber, and the régime did indeed arrest some fascists for basically being too radical, yet it also offered the arrestees jobs, and it was one of the Third Reich’s biggest traders. That a ‘moderate’ right‐wing party would take power in Portugal once again is odd, yet fitting.
Portugal’s dictatorship was incredibly weird with regard to its relationship with other fascists at the time. The Carnation Revolution was almost a turning point but that got hijacked real quick, plus it’s legacy has been whitewashed (at least from what I could gather on the news coverage of the April 25th celebrations).
Portugal really lives up to “saudade.”
