Sins of the father are not sins of the (grand)son.

- graemep 7mo agoEspecially as multiple people in his family have had fascist sympathies. Given his ancestry wearing a black shirt for a TV interview was pretty bad judgement.

- graemep 7mo agoTo an extent, but with caution and charity. A lot of exceptionally good people have come from bad families - one of the Borgias was a saint, for example. A lot of exceptionally nasty people seem to have perfectly nice families. Of course sometimes people who are, for example, brought up to be racist, are racist.
- nisegami 7mo agoOf course not, the grandson is hard at work on his own sins.
- GaryBluto 7mo agoMy point exactly.
- coldtea 7mo agoYou'd be surprised how often the beliefs of the father/grandfather are those of the son/grandson, not to mention how often they feel the need to avenge for the perceived injustices or slights done to their parents

- e2le 7mo agoGiven the history of his family, one would expect them to avoid risqué associations and activities. I think it deserves some scrutiny.
