Meloni heads Italy’s most rightwing government since the second world war. Italy’s criminal code punishes with a fine ranging from €1,000 to €5,000 anyone who “publicly defames the republic”, which includes the government, parliament, the courts and the army.

    XD I’m having a lot of fun reading the clueless comments of people that know nothing about Italy.

      It’s understandable that they wouldn’t know much about other countries’ history. Sad… but I get it. Public education is slipping worldwide.

      What’s bothered me about discussion online for the last 10-15ish years (and it gets worse every year) is that people feel the urgent need to opine strongly on shit they don’t understand - and that bluntly pointing that out is somehow frowned upon.

      I long for the days when it was kosher for everyone to just tell them to shut the fuck up until they were ashamed enough to delete or recant.

      Anyway… Buongiorno!
