Are we sure that the insurmountable limit has been crossed by the video in which Vannacci, as emperor, orders the death of his political opponents in the Colosseum arena, as Schlein stated? A video (generated by AI) that is certainly horrible but that fits into a well-nourished thread of provocations and violent criticisms that have affected Prime Minister Meloni and the other members of her government for four years and that have undermined the essential precondition for a civil confrontation between opposing factions: respect. If the Prime Minister complained about it, the accusation of victimhood was repeated from anti-government newspapers to the living rooms of La7. Did they burn a dummy in her likeness?
It was legitimate dissent. Did they put the Prime Minister upside down? They were harmless students with Heidi’s backpack beaten by the police. And woe to criticize the ProPal marches that carried, alongside the Palestinian flag, a photo of Meloni with bloody hands. And what do you want it to be if some of those good guys wrote on the wall “Meloni hanged”, “Meloni like Kirk” and other such niceties. The Prime Minister invited to lower the tones? It was aggressive victimhood, Massimo Giannini immediately explained to us. At Carnival in Reggio Emilia, social centers had fun with a fake guillotine to decapitate a sign with her face.
Vannacci-emperor, Carofiglio’s arrogance: “Sludge, I only talk about it with my gastroenterologist”
“I only talk about these things in the presence of my gastroenterologist”: Gianrico Carofiglio said it in the stu…
But woe to protest. Carofiglio arrived to explain that Giorgia Meloni’s victimhood was “manipulative” because it allowed her to shirk her responsibilities. In short: on the left and from the left, hate speeches against Meloni and other right-wing exponents have been censored, minimized, underestimated, hidden, depowered in every way, and even shamelessly denied, observing that the term “courtesan” was not an insult but even a half-compliment. Kids’ stuff, bravado, at most they entrenched themselves behind the “two squares” thesis now also wielded by Mayor Lepore after the clashes in Bologna: we are peaceful, who knows the bad guys, they are from the “other” square, not ours. And now, how does this ridiculous whining about the Vannacci video fit in with the chorus of those who spoke of victimhood?
The left is preparing to run an election campaign that is a photocopy of 2022, when they did not hesitate to attribute to Meloni the will to shoot at migrant ships and to want to hunt down Roma, flushing them out one by one. Phrases never said, intentions never expressed. It was and is pure monstrous fabrication, those poetic licenses that are only granted to the bards of the left because they are on the “right side” of history. And now they want us to believe that Vannacci crossed the line with his video? And those of the Five Stars want to convince us that Conte’s indignation at incitement to hatred is truthful? Someone who has in his ranks a deputy who talks about kneepads directed at the Prime Minister and who forgets that hate speeches have been the characteristic of Grillino populism since the first “vaffa day”?
The case of Di Battista is sensational; he invited pro-Gaza protesters to go to Meloni’s house, accusing her of complicity in the slaughter of Palestinian children. She reported it and they called her a liar because she didn’t want to name names. But Di Battista was even surpassed by Alessandro Orsini, who asserted that Khamenei is morally superior to the Prime Minister. The left, after years of talking about aggressive victimhood on the part of the leader of the Italian right, now, to top it all off, wants to imitate her for a video of dark irony. Which we certainly don’t like, but which is a sign of a trend of degeneration in political communication where the oppositions feel at ease. To be clear: everyone has their own Beast, so indignant complaints are fleeting.
Giorgia Meloni, torpedo to the left: “Vannacci’s video? That’s not my politics”
