There's a bit of a contradiction in your comment. You say Italians aren't like that, but Italians voted the "stupid government" into power and the government is doing these things to appeal to those Italians.

- antirez 4y agoThe fact is that the government reached power mostly because votes not happy with the populists (five starts) and the failure of the left in recent years. Only a small percentage of the voters really care about the other right-shit of the government. However, premier Meloni, to satisfy their allies during the elections, promoted many Lega Padana party crazy people into minister roles... and that's the result.
- hackerlight 4y agoIt's the same story everywhere. Every population has a sizeable minority that's far-right, and these people value culture/nation/race, and do not value individuals/freedom. Sometimes they win an election, and then these kind of policies get passed that try to force the people around them to conform to their aesthetic preferences.

- swasheck 4y agoit’s not just the far right, but that is a hallmark of the far right. conservatives want to conserve the idealized snapshot of the present or a gilded past.
