Listen. According to the rules of debate, it is necessary for the party making a positive claim to assert evidence. So far I have seen zero evidence that in any way shape or form "proves" that a mythical place called Portugal exists.

whoever photoshopped this made a couple of rookie mistakes- the sky is made of umbrellas instead of sky, for example, NAND the car is on the wrong side of the street.

Every time some new landmass is discovered people are just like "Oh, that's Portugal then" until it gets proven that it's not Portugal and then every time there's a convoy to East Nigeria or the Belgian Americas the whole process gets repeated again.

I went to Lisbon once and at nighttime the city was completely pitch black except for the streetlights. No lights in any of the windows. I think it's because the actors pretending to be Portuguese go back home to Spain once the workday is over.

'Being Portuguese' is just like 'having autism'. Lots of people say they have it, but there's no evidence they aren't just morons looking for an excuse.

I have never seen any convincing evidence that the so called country of "Portugal" exists. It is a myth that no one wants to falsify because it is imperative to the powers that be as a form of social control. Wake up and realize that there is zero evidence for this place's existence.

Remember that Spain had a dictator until 1975?

That's some crazy poo poo, I bet he just invented the idea of Portugal so that his subjects had a common "enemy" to hate. Like he had a whole Ministry of Propaganda and they invented this really silly-sounding language and had actors pretend to be bumbling Portuguese on sitcoms they ran on state television.

I spent 6 months in the Azores, allegedly a possession of Portugal, but have never been in Portugal proper.

Having no direct evidence to the contrary, I will entertain OP's hypothesis. But, if there is no Portugal, who do the Azores belong to?

You don't know who's at the top of this, and that's good. Get out now. For God's sake man, I'm here on borrowed time. I'm going to get disappeared any moment now just for the little I've shared.

If I get probated by Spanish Manlove, then you know that Portugal doesn't exist.
