    Agreed, that’s a problem in Italy and it’s starting to be scary. But, if the political opposition wants to really convince people, they should oppose the right wing agenda/propaganda with logic counterarguments and factual information, not with insults. Insults and verbal/physical violence are no-brain strategies that f*scists use. They should prove to be different.

            Yes, democracy has spoken since the Italian government has been democratically elected and the opposers were a minority.

            I would like you to come to Italy and see before accusing anyone of crimes (because, you know, here fascism is a crime). Nobody was disarming criticism, I only objected that insults aren’t the best way to express criticism. And since with you people from hexbear it is impossible to talk peacefully, this is my last contribution to this thread.

              Your “correct approach” to politics is always conveniently just out-of-reach. Buh-bye!

        Ok sure go ahead. I’d like to see after you are convicted how you are going to change the world and convince others you are right. Do you feel like Nelson Mandela?
