quote:

Italy’s prime minister, Giorgia Meloni, urged leaders of her political party on Tuesday to reject antisemitism, racism and nostalgia for totalitarian regimes after an Italian news outlet caught on a hidden camera members of the youth section of her party glorifying fascism.


quote:

The news report, which came out in two episodes last month, was filmed by a journalist with the Italian news outlet Fanpage.it who pretended to be an activist with National Youth, the youth arm of Brothers of Italy.

The report said the hidden camera showed members of the movement doing fascist salutes, praising the Italian fascist dictator Benito Mussolini, instructing others to spread stickers with fascist slogans and defining themselves as fascists. People identified by the report as members of the youth group were filmed while shouting, “Sieg heil,” an expression adopted by the Nazis. Other people identified as members of the youth wing were filmed as they made racist and antisemitic comments.








quote:

Two members of the youth section, Elisa Segnini and Flaminia Pace, who were featured in the report, left their official roles after the report emerged but were not expelled from the movement, said Donatella Di Nitto, a spokeswoman for Brothers of Italy.

I'm cool with it. Muzzies aren't there to assimilate or fit in in any way.

Are you supporting or disavowing if true? Assuming the former based on your support for the weaponized DOJ that would make most totalitarian regimes of the past proud.

Then do the job you were elected to do. Native Italians want their nation protected and preserved. Take away that safety naturally forces people to find other means.

Time to kick non natives out that are destroying your nation.

It's a good learning lesson for MAGA/AF and reigning in the elements feigning support for the stated policies of Trump who think it's a wink to demand more.

Free lesson: don't do that.

And this isn't some political stunt like David Duke endorsing Trump. These are actual party members. If Project 2025 is successful in populating the ranks of various administrative agencies, the Trump admin is going to have to be very careful to weed out people like the 2 women from this story.

As an American, the salient question is what’s driving these youth movements.. youth are reactionary. What policies are they revolting against.. it seems odd that the far right groups would be ardent antisemites vs Islamic xenophobic.. maybe they’re both.

I’d like some other reporting to verify and bolster the narrative being driven here as well.. journalism has earned their reputation as willing to allow partisan feelings to create and foster a narrative..

Historically, Italian politics are a cross section of ideologies dating back thousands of years and it’s historically interesting how often they are a component in Euro centric movements, and not always good

Can you link to a post of yours where you have expressed the same concerns with the people Biden, Obama, etc have put in these agencies?

a. I have never said anything nice or positive about Biden, I don't think.

b. Stop with the obsession with Obama. He hasn't been President in almost 8 years.

c. They didn't engage in anything like Project 2025 to populate agencies in this manner. That's a new idea from MAGA.

While technically true, you know full well he’s a major component driving the Democratic Party and a major contributor in the White House..

How many other “former presidents “choose to essentially live In Washington and have continually inserted themselves into politics

I would suggest that leftist running the Dems are actually practicing fascism in real time (or at least attempting to).

Telling grocery stores to lower prices, partnering with social media, and political persecution of a political rival should ringing alarm bells here.

Ground breaking, hard hitting journalism. Young people are stupid. More at 11.
