The italian population also gouged Mussolini’s eyes beat him to death, and hung him and his lover naked in the town square.
There will always be socialists and fascists- don’t judge an entire people. Learn history and realize that Italy switched sides in WW2.
Also, context.. Mussolini duped the people into thinking they’d get food shelter and jobs. The illiterate gulped it up like we gulp high fructose corn syrup here in the states.
That action was an attempt for the Italian people to wash away their sins and transfer all of their guilt to Il Duce. Not an unusual response when your societal madness doesn't work out, and it never does.
Good points, but isn’t that also the thing? Even if it was temporary, they were duped by someone promising them comfort in exchange for their individual liberties.
Look, my viewpoints on World War II probably aren’t welcome around here. The things that I know about 1930s Germany, and what pushed people to make the decisions they made, and what types of books it were that they decided to burn weren’t about Clifford the big red dog. They burned filth, they burned pedophilia, and no I’m not defending what happened but they were pushed by the same type of people that are pushing our own society now into perversion, subversion, etc.
But I do think it might be instructive that the Italian people were once “duped” into giving away their freedom for protection. It might stand to reason that some of them would like to do it again.
Never forget;
Germany was Socialist
It was Italy that was Fascist.
