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.
in Italian even. incredibly based.
Good on Italy. Everyone, not just school children, should be protected from… name-calling 🤦
Pretty much. Shame in the Italian government for this:
Italy’s criminal code punishes with a fine ranging from €1,000 to €5,000 (£858 to £4,290) anyone who “publicly defames the republic”, which includes the government, parliament, the courts and the army.
Common but disturbing behavior: investigating whether calling out fascism is a problem, but not invesgating whether fascism is a problem.
Punishing people for saying what they see.
