Fascist imbeciles.
It's funny what's happening, because I just changed jobs and since I'm in the onboarding phase I have time to read the newspapers. And I must say that 2024 happens at a level of imbecility never seen before. I am referring to the gathering of infiltrators who cheered the Duce by raising their hands: in practice, more than a fascist gathering it was the after-work club of the police.
Certain movements now have so many infiltrators that we shouldn't be surprised that they know how to carry out the seclusion and attention: where else should they have learned, if not in a barracks?
But it's not this trip by the Ministry of the Interior that makes me laugh. The ridiculousness of the reactions makes me laugh. First there are those who do investigative journalism and have the penetrating question, and come up with the uncomfortable question:
“Why is the Meloni government letting the fascists do their thing?”. Meh. You see. It will be the zodiac sign. A real mystery. Have you heard Sherlock Holmes yet? Maybe it's global warming. Or inflation. Why on earth could the Meloni government let the fascists do their thing? Are there any connections by any chance? Come on, let's not be a conspiracy theorist. It's an impenetrable mystery, really.
Come on, let's find an answer to this “very intelligent” question.
Others discover lukewarm water. Like “The fascists feel safe with the Meloni government”. I wonder how many hours of highly refined investigative work it cost to establish this. Even suspecting something like that wasn't easy. I mean, it's not immediate, right?
In what sense, “If”? What is the “If” doing in the sentence? That “If” leaves the impression, almost, that it could be otherwise. According to De Luna, exactly what other government would make them feel protected? No, I'm asking for a friend.
Then La Russa arrives (a name, a guarantee, an Indian chief) and tells us this:
Now, if you want to distance yourself from something you say “My party has nothing to do with it”, and therefore you have distanced yourself. But then he adds "we have nothing to do with it, but let's be clear that if we had anything to do with it, then you'd be annoyed". It's a bit like saying "I didn't steal the apples, but just in case I remind you that Eva also snagged one for free, eh".
Who knows what relationship there is between Larussa and the neo-fascists. Meh. A mystery. Call Derrick, really.
Then in the Democratic Party and beyond the intelligent ones wake up.
Elly Schlein wonders “if melons have nothing to say”. A truly insightful question. I wonder how a person with clear anti-fascism like Meloni can sleep there at night. The little dragon will be there tossing and turning in bed, wondering "but do I have something to say?". Meh. I wonder if he has something to say.
Apparently, the reaction of the left to what they define as a "democratic emergency" is to ask themselves questions. Which says a lot about their aptitude for command and decisions. Does a region flood? “Matteo Renzi wonders if Momoa doesn't feel involved”. Do you see a guy stealing a car? Schlein wonders if the police have nothing to say.
Speaking of questions.
Apparently, Sherlock Magi of +Europa wants to understand why the same thing that happened to the staircase didn't happen.
Come on, Sherlock, try it. You'll see that if you try hard you'll get some suspicion. It's not difficult, you just need to wake up in the morning and get out of bed.
Why do I say it's ridiculous and funny? Because ultimately what is happening is what the German satirical group "browser ballet" immortalized in a beautiful video:
Well, perhaps the thing that is not well understood is that the arena of Italian political journalism could appear not grotesque and imbecile, not stupid and bitchy, but simply ridiculous.
Giorgia, make us Tarzan.
