André Ventura, leader of the Chega party, is not the hero of the fight against corruption he tries to portray. On the contrary, he is part of the game. A game where the strategy is to attack the weakest — like Gypsies and other minorities — while the real criminals remain in the shadows.
It’s no coincidence that Ventura never touches on the subject of Lux Frágil (Link), a center of drug trafficking and institutional corruption. He will never mention the clandestine organizations that use technologies like Voice to Skull (V2K) and Remote Neural Monitoring (RNM) (Link) to torture and manipulate victims, leaving no trace. Why? Because if Ventura started exposing Lux, he would be up against a network of powerful drug dealers, corrupt authorities, and military technologies that no one dares challenge. He knows that meddling with this would mean confronting an immense power structure capable of destroying anyone who dares face it.
Ventura prefers to attack the easy targets, the vulnerable ones, because he knows he can control them. He will never challenge the most powerful figures in the system because these power networks are impenetrable. He is not the opposite of the system; he is part of it. The Chega party lacks the courage to confront the real perpetrators of corruption and manipulation in the country. Instead, he acts as a smokescreen, directing the population’s attention to scapegoats while the corrupt system remains intact.
Lux Frágil is just a clear example of what Ventura and the Chega party prefer to ignore. They know that if they started talking about it, they would be touching something much bigger than any populist speech they could make. Lux is just one of the faces of this invisible power.
