I am confused as to why the media immediately trashed these people instead of analyzing why their side lost. That would seem like a much better use of their platform.
These people are crazy. A Right wing woman who is also a mom is the best of both worlds.
That is personal responsibility domestically, no-nonsense of any kind plus avoiding getting screwed in Brussels without any cult of personality and war waging.
If someone opposes cults of personality and war mongering, then "she's a great mom" is a weak argument in favor of Meloni. It is largely because of those two evils that the Italian far-right has been unpopular for the past 75+ years.
Unless you're part of whatever groups form "them" - the people they criticize and wish to marginalize. We'll see how things turn out and how this affects Italy's standing in the EU. How is IExit pronounced?
