Land Ownership.
Really, it all boils down to the land were people could grow their own food and build their own place to live, having been taken from the Commons and made property of just some people.
We aren’t born free unless we’re born from very wealthy parents, so we’re forced to do work for others merelly to have food on our plates and a roof over our heads: we can’t just grab a piece of land and do the work ourselves in there to raise said food and build said roof and must instead first, and at minimum, work for others within a system not of our design to get our hands on the required value tokens needed to acquire said land.
Credit Scores is just a modern artifact of the increasingly complex architecture that structurally forces most of us to be servants of others without the use of direct cohertion (so that we can be swindled into believing we have free choice), which was built up from that foundation in ages past when the land was taken away from most of our ancestors and which is kept going by all manner of laws, not only those codifying and enforcing land ownership but even those which make asset ownership yield far more income than work (thus making land owners and other owners have a vast advantage in acquiring value tokens over the servants who have to work for them).
That’s a wierd as hell take.
The first placed was the supposedly Center Left (Partido Socialista), the second was AD - a cohalition of the Center-Right “Partido Social Democrata” and the conservative party (to were the fascists migrated post Revolution) CDS - the third was the hard neoliberal party (Iniciativa Liberal) and the fourth was Chega.
The first 3 parties are neoliberals, curiously from softer to harder (if we ignore CDS, the junior party in AD, which is a traditional conservative party rather than neoliberal) and the 4th is towards the Fascist side of the rightwing.
The Iniciativa Liberal who got 3rd place is almost as far-right as the Chega, it’s just that they’re from the American-style ultra neoliberal side of the far-right whilst Chega is from the Fascist side, so they’re less into moralism, nationalism and statism and more into privatise everything including the National Health Service, remove all regulations and cut the top tax rates - i.e. basically replace the European style social net with the American model on steroids.
Curiously both Chega and Iniciativa Liberal grew from nothing roughly at the same time, both a few years after Steve Bannon came to Europe with money from several very wealthy Americans very openly to “expand the far-right in Europe”.
This was not at all a victory against the far right because the two far right parties, Iniciativa Liberal and Chega got more seats than ever before.
You would need to be seriously deluded to think that a party whose politics are those of the fat-cat rightwing of the American Democrat party (think Finance types and Tech Bros) in an European country like Portugal is to the left of anything but the new Fascists of Chega.
