aaah italy is starting to smell like trump victory - empowered by brain-worm, antivaxxer kennedy poised to be the next secretary of health, the italian fascist government annulled the fines that antivaxxers had to pay for breaking the law during the pandemic, and those who payed them will be reimbursed 😤

giorgia meloni has got to keep her illiterate electorate well spoiled and happy.

a spit in the face to all of us who did our duty, to the doctors, and the victims of covid.

Italian mayor who used the Brazilian flag to protest against 'overload of citizenship requests is accused of outrage

Complaint was filed by the Italian-Brazilian lawyer Luiz Scarpelli; the symbol remained on the façade of the Val di Zoldo town hall building for months

The mayor of the Italian city of Val di Zoldo, Camillo De Pellegrin, has been accused of disrespect for flying a Brazilian flag on the facade of the city hall. This was part of a protest against what some local authorities describe as an "overload" of citizenship applications submitted by Brazilians in the Veneto region of Italy.

The complaint was filed by Italo-Brazilian lawyer Luiz Scarpelli. Although the flag was removed from the building just over a month ago, having been there since the start of the year, Scarpelli maintained his complaint, which he claims was submitted to the Presidency of Brazil, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Chamber of Deputies, and the Senate.

— I requested intervention for an act that is morally unacceptable. It disrespected Brazilians. For us, Brazilians, and also Italians, our symbols are sacred: if any Brazilian did this with the Italian flag, I would report it the same way — the lawyer told Il Gazzettino.

According to the Italian newspaper, the mayor decided to use the flag to express his protest after encountering hundreds of citizenship applications from Brazilian descendants who recently became Italian citizens, which he believes are "clogging" the civil registry office.

I know we are all focused on the US at the moment because of the election but I wanted to talk about something.

I wanted to talk about Italy, again.

When I was little I didn’t really want to stay here, I looks at other countries far far away with amazement. Here I had problems caused by my double ethnicity, italians used really silly insults to talk about me and they reeeeeaaaaally liked to remind me of when Croatia was part of Italy with a hint of nostalgia (I hated it).

I grew up online with mostly American pop culture. I was really disconnected from Italian pop culture because I was bullied and estranged. I still wanted to run away at the first chance that I could get my hands on. I was dreaming of Germany, maybe France perhaps. I always tried to make elaborate plans on how to escape.

I was always looking forward, at the future, about the possibilities of “going away”.

Then I turned around and I found friends, communities, collectives, a culture a I liked and that was fun. I started to reconnect with my own country, learning about other regions’ dialects thanks to my friends. Through the years I have taught myself the history of Italian politics and social movements, and I said “wow, there’s so much potential here” (I also acknowledge the bad parts of Italy as I have done also in another post). Now I would really like to stay here, my country it’s a mess and it looks like a house renovation project: there’s beautiful details everywhere but I need to redo completely the flooring because it’s rotten.

I have just graduated (masters degree) and the only jobs that I am finding have nothing to do with my degree and my rent halves my earnings (without counting the bills). I have a room in house that should be completely redone, that it’s not easy to heat up and that has a problem with mold.

While I am finding myself in this situation, I have to deal with the news talking about how my generation is a bunch of lazy fucks (I know that in every country they are doing the same). They are also slowly taking away our rights. I have come to the moment where I have to move, now that I really do not wish to do so, I have to.

I am going to be one of the many “fleeing brains”, a phenomenon that Italy has absolutely no explanation for.

Because why would young people run away, right?

The way some people talk about citizenships and nationalities in my country makes me think that they don’t understand that you don’t get to chose where you are born, that it’s based solely on luck and there is nothing to “acquire” based on “merits”. The fact that I or you are born in a democratic rich country is a privilege that we didn’t deserve or gain. It’s just luck. Fate. Whatever. Nothing more.

Southern Italians will vote the right to get rid of immigrants and gay people and then will be surprised to find out they’re trying to get rid of THEM.

First is immigrants

Then is queer people

Then is the other poor people

Who are the poor people? Oh, most of southern Italy, it seems

What do you think, once we install racism and kick away the immigrants you’re gonna be allowed more households at the north? Cause that’s not the case, darling ☺️
