Rise of neo-fascist groups in Italy, Mussolini legacy still resonates with some • FRANCE 24
In Italy the government of Giorgia Meloni, the leader of the post-fascist party Brothers of Italy, has been criticised for being complacent about the rise of neo-fascism. Since the arrival of Meloni as the head of state, Italian neo-fascist groups are gaining members and becoming more and more visible. An unapologetic fascism is growing in the peninsula. Our correspondent in Italy, Natalia Mendoza, went to meet some of these nostalgic followers of Benito Mussolini to understand who they are, and what threat they are to Italian society.

Mussolini was not brought down by left wing type people; he was brought down by former Italian Army members who were very angry that most of their friends were killed in Russia while fighting with their German allies.

Mussolini was brought down by Italian Partisans and workers who gave him and his mistress a well-deserved end. No members of the military were present. On the contrary, most Italian Army members were proud to have fought in Russia against "Judeo-Bolshevism." The more royalist faction that abandoned Mussolini were nowhere near him when he was toppled, but way behind the Allies. Please read some history.

What's shameful about this?
It's been said that, historically, fascism arose in response to socialism and communism. So if if you don't want fascism, don't make such a strong effort to inject socialism and communism into a society. As The Bard said, "self-love is not so vile a sin ans self-neglect," so stand tall and firm, Italy. Your people, their lands, culture and history are not for others to give away.
Those groups have existed for many decades. They are the physiological safety valve of the right, exactly as the ultra-left groups have been for the left (as long as it has existed). You have reinvented the wheel. This alarm is now being raised by that part of the italian right that claims to be a left. The problem is certainly not this, but rather that in Italy, as in the rest of Europe, there is a lack of true democratic competition between sides with a different economic approach. The parties, economically speaking, are all right-wing and are divided only on accessory problems, which concern particular sections of society, but never the people as a whole. In fact, they defend the interests of investors and not ordinary people. In the next elections there will be a collapse in turnout. The Americans are in charge anyway, so what's the point of voting? Good life to you. If you are not directly involved in politics, think about eating, dressing and heating the house when needed.
Gee, do you think the rise of popularity of this group might have to do with recent migration? The connection is obvious.
