Meloni heads Italy’s most rightwing government since the second world war. Italy’s criminal code punishes with a fine ranging from €1,000 to €5,000 anyone who “publicly defames the republic”, which includes the government, parliament, the courts and the army.

          “Nobody is harmed by rhetoric” is an incredibly shortsighted thing to say. And Meloni has already started passing anti-lgbtq+ laws…?

          Also the US very much has a massive fascist presence in its governmental system. And the Democrats are liberals, not anti-fascists.
