Meloni is a populist conservative on issues ranging from marriage to immigration; she is a nationalist by philosophy and combatively passionate by temperament. A clip of a speech she gave at the World Congress of Families in 2019 has now gone viral with American conservatives; she explained, “Why is the family an enemy? Why is the family so frightening? There is a single answer to all these questions. Because it defines us. Because it is our identity. Because everything that defines us is now an enemy for those who would like us to no longer have an identity and to simply be perfect consumer slaves. And so they attack national identity, they attack religious identity, they attack gender identity, they attack family identity… We will defend God, country and family.”… …To them, traditional roles are themselves fascist institutions; those who promote such roles suggest that human happiness can’t be found in atomistic individualism, supplemented by collective social welfare schemes. And so true freedom requires that those like Meloni be fought. Unfortunately for the Left, anti-traditionalism is the privilege of the frivolous — and after the failure of totalitarian COVID-19 policy, the collapse of green utopianism and the decay of societal solidarity, frivolity is no longer the order of the day…. https://www.gopusa.com/the-international-anti-woke-backlash/ The backlash against the woke, the cancel culture, and the secular progressive urban elites is not just happening in America. We are now a global movement in countries that are democracies or constitutional republics. The secular and the elites have gone too far and triggered an international backlash.
A great movement joined by Sweden and Italy along with other nations making a stand in their homeland for God, family, country.
Get ready for an onslaught of about 100 lefties coming in here to yell "Fascist" when they don't even know what the word means. God Bless Italy for waking the heck up!
Why don’t media outlets ask about the origins of Meloni’s opposition? “She established the Fratelli d’Italia in 2012, along with two other much older politicians. In the ensuing decade, her new party has come to dominate the Italian Right and to shunt the centre-Left Partito Democratico into second place—a party which itself evolved, via a series of name changes, from the Italian Communist Party in 1991.” So, that's why.
Thank God for Hungary and Poland for starting this in Europe and props to Sweden too for their change.
We know that our progressives here prefer communists to people who put God and their family above the government.
She only got 26% of the popular vote and won the Prime Minister's job. Her party still do not have a majority of the government lower house to do anything about it. Yes, she is against homosexuality, migrants and immigration, legal and illegal, and a few other things. But she won because she toned down her rhetoric in the election season. Let's wait and see what she has to do with Italy's economy in shambles, a referendum to allow gay and lesbian marriage is already on the books, and whether or not she actually goes back to her roots in political discourse.
“Now the elites are afraid.” “The elites present themselves as anti-fascist and anti-racist but this is merely a way of defending their class interests. It is the only argument they can muster to defend their status, but it is not working anymore.” We aren't fooled by the flailing of the privileged.
It is time to rip the privileged elites off of their pedestal and give the working and middle classes some relief from their oligarchical oppression
Perhaps a good start would be that no public worker makes more than the median wage for private workers. If they aren't interested in raising the living standards for the American Worker then maybe we don't find them to be a good fit for public employment.
There should be a backlash to hair-brained ideas being given rational consideration or respect, because they destabilize and corrupt common sense. Virgin Atlantic Airways just announced a policy regarding uniforms for it's flight attendants. Male flight attendants may now wear skirts and attendants can wear badges that state their preferred pronouns.... Many flight attendants have been entertaining, and passengers like this. I don't think a flight crew in drag will be received that way.
The International Anti-Woke Backlash Color me hopeful, but not optimistic. These are all hills the perverted wokesters are willing to die on. Meloni & Desantis are the exceptions, not the rule.
I'll give you a gratuitous thread bump....... She's a 2022 Neo Fascist, another Putin puppet AKA another useful idiot.
the Christians right sometimes goes too far as has the woke movement and Trumpism they will self correct with time
Sure if you choose Christo fascism and are will to sacrifice a representative democracy for short term autocratic populism.
Typical of the way the secular progressive left chooses to label people who dare to preserve culture, history, and tradition in our lives as we had or still have. We support our constitutional republic and the rule of law as one nation, under God that recognizes the source of our inalienable human rights
Non sequitur deflections mired in phycological projections are usually Russian style 'active measures". Today's RW zealots are also know to abuse these measures and are likely willfully blind to the consequences.
We will simply not ever allow your kind to remove all reference to religion or it’s values from the public square or from its impact on government and our laws. We will preserve what we have, regain what we had in our history and not let the pejorative name calling and character assassination comi g from the godless secular progressive left elites in any way deter us. Throw all the names at us that we all know are lies intended to dissuade/frighten some at us you want. We know that we aren’t dominionism or religious nationalism but are simply living by the best light that we have and will not be made to give it up in life here
"My kind", really??!! The hubris and zealotry this reference stems from is the issue with neo fascists. The drape themselves in the flag and Christo Nationalism and then blindly follow their "beliefs" and "leaders" off the radicalized zealotry cliff (just look to the M.E. to see your future). A deal with any "devil" nor any "despot" will save fools even from themselves. The problem stems when those very zealots feel that they must dictate and control other freedom loving citizens acts and beliefs. As per the norm, ignorance is blissful no matter where it originates from...culture, bigotry or both.
