No it is not. What is happening is that moderate people are being pushed to the right. This is a minority which, albeit being somewhat a threat, does not represent the real threats: rising organised crime infiltrating society and islamism, which are undoubtedly correlated with uncontrolled immigration from ME and North Africa. A recent report in Sweden has shown that Iran is founding organised crime and indoctrination of the 2nd and 3rd generation immigrants from ME. We are under attack and the left seems oblivious to the real threat of our societies. Today EU election voting results will show you. Mark my words.
As the 'Far Right' is gaining in popularity all over the Western world one has to ask Why? Why are people dissatisfied with the current state of their lives, then one needs to ask Who is gaining from this situation. Those are the real perpetrators of our current lives of austerity. Most people the world over simply want the same things, freedom to live in peace and enough to raise their families.
Its the elitist way this reporter speaks that let's me know who is to blame. He is literally saying the Italian government shouldn't tolerate this. What does not tolerating it look like? Fascists wouldn't tolerate it. If you want to censor or arrest people for this you are only going to make them stronger. In America it's the people that claim to be anti-facist that are the most fascist. If you cheer on the government to censor them today; tomorrow they will do the same to you and your ideals. Just calling people "fascist" doesn't mean anything anymore bc it's so overused and used incorrectly. I guarantee who prospers from this are the same people that prosper from everything else. They love it. Any division is good for them. The actual Italians are the indigenous population of Italy so they aren't crazy to feel like foreigners are coming to take their country. I used to say I wish the Native Americans were not accepting at all when the first Europeans came to their land but I realize now that the reason they didn't understand the threat was because it didn't happen overnight. It started very small and the natives had no idea what all would come, and if they had understood this threat sooner, they would have killed all the first ones to arrive. Colonialism never stops. In America, I have come to realize that what really makes a white supremacist is being so arrogant that it can't happen to you. That what you have can't ever be taken. The arrogance involved in people thinking it can't happen to them are the real supremacists of any race or people.
I'd say dissatisfaction in the country is a fuel for criminal grifters and stupid ideologies to rise. the country has problems? yes. turning towards mussolini? these people are clearly out of their mind.
Would an Islamophobe, or anti-Muslim racist, like you condemn Hindutva for similar reasons? Wait... you wouldn't, because you and other neofascists are friendly toward Hindutva and because pro-Mussolini and pro-Hitler fan boys like you, other neofascists, and the Hindutva types (fascists in their own right) all want to see Muslims in concentration camps and mass graves.
Lol what? BBC is British pro Government TV that even make people pay for the TV license to be properly BSited for their very own money. Britain is a Monarchy, means they are far right.
People in the comment section know the difference between patriotism and fascism? Because fascism is not only corporativism, patriotism or nationalism as someone said. Fascism is a totalitarian ideology that came to power between 20s and 40s of the last century instilling fear through the society, eliminating political opposition (read about fascist squadrism, Matteotti murder etc.), prohibitng free and multiparty elections (national fascist party was the only legal party in italy) and subjugating and discriminating minorities. Fascism is violence, this is the true definition, because is a violent ideology, came to power with violence and led Italy to violence, dictatorship and the absence of rights and freedom and ultimately to war. National socialism was inspired by fascism and that should says it all. The historical revisionism we are witnessing in this period is unacceptable and is based on fear, confusion and poorness of the people. These are hard and uncertain times and today as then far-right blows on the general discontent with the risk of starting a fire that will not be easy to put out if it becomes too large as history teaches. Don't look for easy answers to complex problems, try to use your head and not your gut, we must all try to find an alternative to all of this together and united. And the far-right parties that don’t condemn these so called nostalgic tributes are complicit and irresponsible because they do it for electoral gain or worse out of real conviction in certain cases for these ideas. Or worse for pure ignorance because you can be nationalist and right-wing without being illiberal and fascist, because it is too easy to condemn the drifts of an ideology if the ideology itself is incompatible with our liberal democracies. This is why they always taught us to watch over democracy because this is not just an Italian phenomenon but a European if not global one. Think about it, people. And get informed well about what surrounds you and about history. And the great grandson of a fascist secret agent tells you this so i know what i’m talking about and the risks involved in this dangerous twist.
@@brandonreid7528 So what? Do you justify the establishment of a dictatorship to achieve these ideals? I don't get the point, i'm reporting facts, not opinions. I remind you that this is exactly what they did last century with this excuse. Fascism isn't an opinion, is unconstitutional. If you would like a fascist government you have to change the constitution first
Everything you stated is what Marxism/Comunism did back then. The Holodomor. Is a jewish ideology back in 1890s. Fascism is complete oposite of that. Wonder why people are brainwashed to not talk about fascism but allowed to talk about comunism, which is still alive till this day in Asia.
At least under this government a woman has the right to choose. In a Muslim majority you either wear a burka or get executed No way a woman should ever support that

While it’s great to cover this topic it’s terrible journalism from the part of BBC to gloss over the reason why Fascism is problematic. Conflating the horrors of Nazism with the Fascist of Italy is NOT the same and by not addressing the flaws of the Italian Fascist you leave it open to ‘interpretation’. There is a much deeper issues re Nationalism and the corruption under Capitalist oligarchs as well as the ‘Mafia’ style politicians that are the root cause of why so many Italians are leaning into Fascism. Why did Fascism begin in the 1st place? These BBC docs end up not asking bigger questions and certainly not answering them which ends up creating a vacuum that can be filled by disinformation.
I agree with you, they don't even try to go to the root, which would be helpful to at least propose some alternatives who don't look that pitiful and who are likely to be better. As a very average Italian I'd like to have an idea on how to tackle the problems we're facing in a fruitful way, but I honestly have no idea where to start and I'm very sad that most of the time I understand Italian news better when I watch some foreign journalist. Unfortunately this is not one of those times...

At what point are you considered Italian? three or four gens back? Curious why Italy invaded Africa 100 years ago. Maybe Italians should have said Africa for Africans too!

"The State still ALLOWS these demonstrations to take place!" I believe that Italy is a Democracy, and with Democracy comes Freedom of Speech, and Freedom to assemble, non-violently of course. And, I see no violence in these Fascist demonstrations. So, is BBC suggesting that the present Italian government stomp on peoples Rights to speak, or gather? Well then, THAT sounds Fascistic to me. So, what Are you saying, BBC?
What kind of journalism this? 1. In all of this, where were the attempts to ask self-proclaimed supporters of Mussolini to explain what in him they actually support in the present day? (It would give you an opportunity to test the general knowledge as well as political ideology in actual words: a mere salute at a contemporary really does naught to explain one’s political stances; for all you know many may have attended those out of peer encouragement or ignorance of history) 2. Where were the statistics for the abundance-in percent terms-of what is regarded as deplorable political support from people? Surely, nothing is more important than a statistical picture of the reality, of the truth.

I’ve seen this coming a long way off, and why? Because of what the EU has done to all of its constituent nations. It’s not justification but rather simply cause and effect. So predictable.
Totally the E.U. has behaved so terribly especially regarding immigration. People feel bullied by an E.U. government that they feel doesn't represent their interests. I wish people would learn from history though. I wish the far right and far left that both realize that fascism and communism lead to the deaths of millions.
Far right is blooming all over Europe because other parties do not address poulation worries regarding immigration. The interesting question would have been: why don't other parties address this topic seriously? (therefore enabling this dangerous far right blooming)
Those same governments have participated in fossil fuel dependency and colonialism which have had devastating impacts on the countries people flee from. Now it’s a problem for you because they didn’t stay put and die quietly. Now you’re blaming centrists and the left for enabling fascists by not adopting fascist policy.
@@fchicod calling leftists anarchists is quite... retardo. the soviets were also quite colonial, as well as the Chinese(even up till today FREE TIBET, FREE Turkestan). left and right is a stupid arbiter. it was meant to define the monarchists and republicans(revolutionaries). but it doesnt define actual policy, especially not economic policy. the only line that arguably is true, is on immigration. for which again, using a different spectrum nationalist vs internationalist would be better. the worst bit about the left-right wing bullshit is that hitler and mussolini saw themselves as removed from it. they didn't consider themselves far anything. they saw themselves as third positionists.

Not to forget Ken Kirby's 1989 BBC documentary "Fascist Legacy", on Italian fascist war crimes in Africa and the Balkans, bought by Italian Rai TV and never broadcast by it and the book by Michael Palumbo "L'olocausto rimosso" on which it was based, censored in Italy in 1992 by the publisher Rizzoli. This is also to talk about the fact that Italy "has never dealt with fascism".
Yes, in fact they are censuring many debates, interviews and monologues all over the national tv and journalists who used to direct in these channels are mass-fleeing to private television
As a Slovenian I am very concerned about Italian fashism growing. Suddenly they are presenting themselves as VICTIMS of WW2, how they suffered by Yugoslav partisans etc. etc. They don't ever tell how they occupied Slovenian territories and that they were given some of these territories after WW2 because the allies wanted a port in N Adriatic, but did not trust Yugoslavia. Italians were invaders who gor out of the war unscathed and yet they present themselves as victims. Insanity on the rise.

What place is not in chaos? In US, the border crisis, big cities overrun by migrants, crime is through the roof and only keeps on going up (we don't have anything remotely ressembling mass shoppiftings, car thefts, robberies, people ever increasingly use hard drugs (the most dangerous there is, we don't have things like fentanyl on wideapread level, a couple of small EU nations in the East have that problem but it is something you don't even see on the streets, homeless are camping in cities and parks and wherever - some cities in EU has problems with homlesness, like every place, but not even close how common it is in the States. It would be not possible to even do most of these things here, camping on the streets, selling and using hard drugs openly, for theft and robberies law slams people into place. We have our own problems, and Europe is all very very different, it's impossible to generalise it. Countries in the South historically has weaker government institutions, and places like France, Italy and Greece are very polarised by politics, as many people are passionate about these things. It's just how they are there.
Italy is the only case when assuming that people on the far-right are fascists, would make sense, although there's still a gap between those people and the party of Mussolini.
Every country has this 1-5% of radical right AND left. They are easy to manipulate with. Do your own conclusions about who is benefiting with these destabilisations inside ANY country's society.
True, most of the time.The problem is we are seeing around 30% on the radical authoritarian Right in a few of countries right now. Up to 50% among voters in some, like the US. It is a bit out of balance. Unfortunately nobody is dealing with the causes of it, like income inequality and its direct consequences like living costs crises.
@@CarewolfYou could say it's an overreaction to an overreaction. There are few actual Fascists & few actual Communists, but polarization is increasing. Right radicalims has spiked in recent years, so it's more noticeable then Left radicalism, which has had more of a slow and steady creep. That and a lot of formerly Center-Right stances being now categorized as Radical has done a lot for this perception of a right-radical surge. If you keep pushing the discourse to one extreme the center will soon end up on the fringe. Ironically or even tragically there has been little to no significant Leftist progress in recent years to show for this apparent riling-up of right-radicalism.
@@diocletian607 Agree. Those movements should always be on the light. 1-5% is the core of the movements. The others are voters for such parties/candidates or people supporting established totalitarian/authoritarian regimes in their countries.

No! I do not think Fascism is coming back to Italy. By chance I heard Meloni for the first time in 2015 having set UA-cam to continue when a presentation had finished. The words were so different from those normally heard, that I restarted from the beginning, and she certainly was different from the continuous criticism being spewed out by some other parties, without alternative proposals being made. I grew up devoid of any ideologies in Tanzania, and had never voted until I returned to Italy after 41 years. I would consider myself a "centrist" since I listen to ALL proposals, evaluate them for long term effects, and choose what I consider the better one. Most Italian politicians are not up to a standard of governing "anything", and many proposals are disastrous. So Meloni really stood out above the rest.
This is such an unfaithful representation of the political situation in Italy, as it is ideologically based on the propaganda of left wing parties, newspapers and intellectuals. Meloni's government (which I do not support, to be clear) has many faults, but it has not limited freedom of speech nor any other constitutional right, contrary to what the deputy mayor of Bologna said. The fascist party Forza Nuova has never won any seat in the Parliament so far; its leaders and others have been condanned for the 2021 assault to CGIL. Fratelli d'Italia is the leading party in Italy and the present government is the expression of a legitimately elected parliament in 2022. These are the facts, the rest is just bullshit. I have great respect for BBC and I still consider it one of the most reliable news agency in the world, but this report is clearly ideologically based.
You have freedom to buy all kinds of symbols and hold events that don't break your laws. If government starts interfering in legal way of life then you will get truly a fascist government.
A system only works when every component is working in balance. Keeping balance is hard and requires effort, just like walking on a rope. The problem with the far left and the likes of BBC is that they are not happy with the line of moderation (which is the best place to be), now that they are in power, they want to push everyone and everything as far left as possible to increase their margin of safety and that is causing the imbalance and the gravitation towards far right.
Fascism as a philosophy started in Milan at the university(Giovanni Gentile). It was a theory of materialism and reality and its place in the "ideal" .. it facilitated in a backhanded way any esoteric or traditionally humanitarian approach to politics... was called "active idealism". Transcendence or esotericism was to be found in action, the will and was placed firmly in the "material". It was a remedy offered to governmental paralysis arising from the party systems and regulation, and antidemocratic. (sort of like today) Rationalized all sorts of damaging, oppressive policies. BBC should do a piece on the academic origins of this philosophy.
nazis are socialist too. its called national socialism. so you correct. thats why I dont like both of them nazis and commies. but fascists are no way a "bigger threat" then jihadd. we actually need some harder counteraction on jihadd amongst people :D

You are baking at the wrong and right tree at the same time. Orban´s government is a supporter of the Likud Party which is zionist, so how Hungay can have fascism. At the same time zionism is nationalism just like fascism and nazism, so from that respect Hungary "enrolled into fascism. As for the concept of democracy does not "one fit for all" system. In Hungary the government, full with ex- commies and their descendants are rubbing the country to dry, making a Western-style living almost impossible for most of the citizens and that contributed an intellectual and working class migration to the West, mainly to EU. On an other hand the speech of freedom is not suppressed like in Germany, Austria or in UK, just to mention a few, where for speaking up for facts and touching tabu subjects, a protestor can be wrongfully incarcerated.

Several years ago, I enquired about obtaining Italian citizenship via Juris Sanguis (blood descent). My grandparents emigrated in early 1920s after Mussolini was elected. The economy was in a nose dive. After telling consulate rep that my grandfather was in Italian Alpini during World War One, he questioned me about his political beliefs and also mine. Straight out he asked if I believed in fascism and if I admired Mussolini. I was floored. In my father’s family, Mussolini was always referred as that no good bastarde. He was why they left Italy. Then they would go into Hitler.

If Mussolini, like Franco, had refrained from entering into an alliance with Nazi Germany, history would have remembered him completely differently. Of course it wasn't an angel. What the Italians did in Africa is indefensible (Ethiopia, for example...) but at the same time Mussolini effectively attacked the mafia, reached an agreement with the Vatican, things improved in Italy, etc. but unfortunately Mussolini was a megalomaniac. And everything that was good on the side of fascism (and it was!) destroyed and brought Italy to the brink of collapse. I have respect, for example, for Count Ciano, for his anti-German attitude and attitude towards Poland in 1939. We should also not forget that Mussolini was dismissed by the Great Fascist Council, which means that something like a disabled, but still, democracy was at work.

Fascists wouldn't tolerate it. If you want to censor or arrest people for this you are only going to make them stronger. In America it's the people that claim to be anti-facist that are the most fascist. If you cheer on the government to censor them today; tomorrow they will do the same to you and your ideals. Just calling people "fascist" doesn't mean anything anymore bc it's so overused and used incorrectly. I guarantee who prospers from this are the same people that prosper from everything else. They love it. Any division is good for them. The actual Italians are the indigenous population of Italy so they aren't crazy to feel like foreigners are coming to take their country. I used to say I wish the Native Americans were not accepting at all when the first Europeans came to their land but I realize now that the reason they didn't understand the threat was because it didn't happen overnight. It started very small and the natives had no idea what all would come, and if they had understood this threat sooner, they would have killed all the first ones to arrive. Colonialism never stops. In America, I have come to realize that what really makes a white supremacist is being so arrogant that it can't happen to you. That what you have can't ever be taken. The arrogance involved in people thinking it can't happen to them are the real supremacists of any race or people.
I'd say dissatisfaction in the country is a fuel for criminal grifters and stupid ideologies to rise. the country has problems? yes. turning towards mussolini? these people are clearly out of their mind.

People in the comment section know the difference between patriotism and fascism? Because fascism is not only corporativism, patriotism or nationalism as someone said. Fascism is a totalitarian ideology that came to power between 20s and 40s of the last century instilling fear through the society, eliminating political opposition (read about fascist squadrism, Matteotti murder etc.), prohibitng free and multiparty elections (national fascist party was the only legal party in italy) and subjugating and discriminating minorities. Fascism is violence, this is the true definition, because is a violent ideology, came to power with violence and led Italy to violence, dictatorship and the absence of rights and freedom and ultimately to war. National socialism was inspired by fascism and that should says it all. The historical revisionism we are witnessing in this period is unacceptable and is based on fear, confusion and poorness of the people. These are hard and uncertain times and today as then far-right blows on the general discontent with the risk of starting a fire that will not be easy to put out if it becomes too large as history teaches. Don't look for easy answers to complex problems, try to use your head and not your gut, we must all try to find an alternative to all of this together and united. And the far-right parties that don’t condemn these so called nostalgic tributes are complicit and irresponsible because they do it for electoral gain or worse out of real conviction in certain cases for these ideas. Or worse for pure ignorance because you can be nationalist and right-wing without being illiberal and fascist, because it is too easy to condemn the drifts of an ideology if the ideology itself is incompatible with our liberal democracies. This is why they always taught us to watch over democracy because this is not just an Italian phenomenon but a European if not global one. Think about it, people. And get informed well about what surrounds you and about history. And the great grandson of a fascist secret agent tells you this so i know what i’m talking about and the risks involved in this dangerous twist.

While it’s great to cover this topic it’s terrible journalism from the part of BBC to gloss over the reason why Fascism is problematic. Conflating the horrors of Nazism with the Fascist of Italy is NOT the same and by not addressing the flaws of the Italian Fascist you leave it open to ‘interpretation’.
There is a much deeper issues re Nationalism and the corruption under Capitalist oligarchs as well as the ‘Mafia’ style politicians that are the root cause of why so many Italians are leaning into Fascism. Why did Fascism begin in the 1st place?
These BBC docs end up not asking bigger questions and certainly not answering them which ends up creating a vacuum that can be filled by disinformation.
I agree with you, they don't even try to go to the root, which would be helpful to at least propose some alternatives who don't look that pitiful and who are likely to be better.

1. In all of this, where were the attempts to ask self-proclaimed supporters of Mussolini to explain what in him they actually support in the present day? (It would give you an opportunity to test the general knowledge as well as political ideology in actual words: a mere salute at a contemporary really does naught to explain one’s political stances; for all you know many may have attended those out of peer encouragement or ignorance of history)
2. Where were the statistics for the abundance-in percent terms-of what is regarded as deplorable political support from people? Surely, nothing is more important than a statistical picture of the reality, of the truth.

We have our own problems, and Europe is all very very different, it's impossible to generalise it. Countries in the South historically has weaker government institutions, and places like France, Italy and Greece are very polarised by politics, as many people are passionate about these things. It's just how they are there.
Italy is the only case when assuming that people on the far-right are fascists, would make sense, although there's still a gap between those people and the party of Mussolini.
Although he wasn't interested in race, he was just a straight forward national socialist. So a leftwing authoritarian.
Every country has this 1-5% of radical right AND left. They are easy to manipulate with. Do your own conclusions about who is benefiting with these destabilisations inside ANY country's society.
True, most of the time.The problem is we are seeing around 30% on the radical authoritarian Right in a few of countries right now. Up to 50% among voters in some, like the US. It is a bit out of balance. Unfortunately nobody is dealing with the causes of it, like income inequality and its direct consequences like living costs crises.
@@CarewolfYou could say it's an overreaction to an overreaction. There are few actual Fascists & few actual Communists, but polarization is increasing. Right radicalims has spiked in recent years, so it's more noticeable then Left radicalism, which has had more of a slow and steady creep. That and a lot of formerly Center-Right stances being now categorized as Radical has done a lot for this perception of a right-radical surge. If you keep pushing the discourse to one extreme the center will soon end up on the fringe. Ironically or even tragically there has been little to no significant Leftist progress in recent years to show for this apparent riling-up of right-radicalism.
Its not 5%. Those numbers are used to feign weakness and keep those movements safe. The numbers are much much higher

No! I do not think Fascism is coming back to Italy. By chance I heard Meloni for the first time in 2015 having set UA-cam to continue when a presentation had finished. The words were so different from those normally heard, that I restarted from the beginning, and she certainly was different from the continuous criticism being spewed out by some other parties, without alternative proposals being made. I grew up devoid of any ideologies in Tanzania, and had never voted until I returned to Italy after 41 years. I would consider myself a "centrist" since I listen to ALL proposals, evaluate them for long term effects, and choose what I consider the better one. Most Italian politicians are not up to a standard of governing "anything", and many proposals are disastrous. So Meloni really stood out above the rest.
This is such an unfaithful representation of the political situation in Italy, as it is ideologically based on the propaganda of left wing parties, newspapers and intellectuals.
Meloni's government (which I do not support, to be clear) has many faults, but it has not limited freedom of speech nor any other constitutional right, contrary to what the deputy mayor of Bologna said.
The fascist party Forza Nuova has never won any seat in the Parliament so far; its leaders and others have been condanned for the 2021 assault to CGIL.
Fratelli d'Italia is the leading party in Italy and the present government is the expression of a legitimately elected parliament in 2022. These are the facts, the rest is just bullshit.
I have great respect for BBC and I still consider it one of the most reliable news agency in the world, but this report is clearly ideologically based.

A system only works when every component is working in balance. Keeping balance is hard and requires effort, just like walking on a rope. The problem with the far left and the likes of BBC is that they are not happy with the line of moderation (which is the best place to be), now that they are in power, they want to push everyone and everything as far left as possible to increase their margin of safety and that is causing the imbalance and the gravitation towards far right.
Fascism as a philosophy started in Milan at the university(Giovanni Gentile). It was a theory of materialism and reality and its place in the "ideal" .. it facilitated in a backhanded way any esoteric or traditionally humanitarian approach to politics... was called "active idealism". Transcendence or esotericism was to be found in action, the will and was placed firmly in the "material". It was a remedy offered to governmental paralysis arising from the party systems and regulation, and antidemocratic. (sort of like today) Rationalized all sorts of damaging, oppressive policies. BBC should do a piece on the academic origins of this philosophy.

You are baking at the wrong and right tree at the same time. Orban´s government is a supporter of the Likud Party which is zionist, so how Hungay can have fascism. At the same time zionism is nationalism just like fascism and nazism, so from that respect Hungary "enrolled into fascism. As for the concept of democracy does not "one fit for all" system. In Hungary the government, full with ex- commies and their descendants are rubbing the country to dry, making a Western-style living almost impossible for most of the citizens and that contributed an intellectual and working class migration to the West, mainly to EU. On an other hand the speech of freedom is not suppressed like in Germany, Austria or in UK, just to mention a few, where for speaking up for facts and touching tabu subjects, a protestor can be wrongfully incarcerated.

Have you been to Mexico? They do it daily as part of their national anthem. From Grammer school to soccer games.

BEFORE "SOME ONE "WAS INTERSTED IN TOLERANCE AND WAS A BIG PROMOTION OF THAT, NOW "THAT SOMEONE" INTERSTED IN FASCISM AND IT IS PROPMOTED TODAY
Several years ago, I enquired about obtaining Italian citizenship via Juris Sanguis (blood descent). My grandparents emigrated in early 1920s after Mussolini was elected. The economy was in a nose dive. After telling consulate rep that my grandfather was in Italian Alpini during World War One, he questioned me about his political beliefs and also mine. Straight out he asked if I believed in fascism and if I admired Mussolini. I was floored. In my father’s family, Mussolini was always referred as that no good bastarde. He was why they left Italy. Then they would go into Hitler.

If Mussolini, like Franco, had refrained from entering into an alliance with Nazi Germany, history would have remembered him completely differently. Of course it wasn't an angel. What the Italians did in Africa is indefensible (Ethiopia, for example...) but at the same time Mussolini effectively attacked the mafia, reached an agreement with the Vatican, things improved in Italy, etc. but unfortunately Mussolini was a megalomaniac. And everything that was good on the side of fascism (and it was!) destroyed and brought Italy to the brink of collapse. I have respect, for example, for Count Ciano, for his anti-German attitude and attitude towards Poland in 1939. We should also not forget that Mussolini was dismissed by the Great Fascist Council, which means that something like a disabled, but still, democracy was at work.
Sounds like you have much more knowledge, insight than the rest of us & BBC ! This is nice....leaves opening for actually understanding history, instead of being left with just 'knee jerk reactions' on both sides! THANK YOU !
@@BCSTS “Whoever does not remember history is doomed to relive it” [George Santayana]. Besides, history is my hobby.
"Why are fascists allowed to protest? Why are they tolerated?" I thought free speech and tolerance were good things. Or is it only for those you agree with?
have you honestly never heard of the paradox of intolerance?
The same reason jihadists are allowed to protest
@@LynximusThe paradox of intolerance is just a justification for liberals to engage in tribalism. Which is fine, but quit with the mental gymnastics and be honest
@@roshansundar6618 uhhhhhhhh what?
No, it's how a degree of intolerance is required in a society to avoid the intolerant. It's a paradox. Intolerance is required to have tolerance. If we are tolerant of the intolerant (fascists, racists and bigots) we end up with their BS in our society.
@@Lynximus tolerance is an action, not a value. You tolerate or are intolerant of something based on some judgment. I.e. I dislike degeneracy, so I am intolerant to most communists/liberals/leftists because their values lead to degeneration.
Your metric for in-group out-group classification is liberalism vs illiberalism.
Absurd, how can people NEVER learn from the past ? (as an italian descendent this really upseats me, and the problem is that it is happening not only in Itally but in so many countries in Europe and America )
"The state allows them to take place". Listen to yourselves! Every heard of free speech? Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable - JFK.
Keep referring to nationalists as fascists and you will continue to stoke nationalism flames.
Remember this guys. This is the roaring 20's. Make memories now for the tough times later.
BBC - we are NOT far right - you are FAR Left - & expecting us all to follow suit - we want our culture, our borders, & our nations protected
What are you afraid of??? Europe is waking up! Go on Europe!!! 💪💪💪🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋
these guys marching need to learn a bit of history from their grandparents and parents!
You sounds just like someone who doesn't know a single thing about my country
You sound like someone who needs to be deported from the west.
Germany and Japan: we are very sorry of our past 😢
Italy:
Its interesting that the italians are dealing with the past. Very far of the english who never question themselves about all the horrible shit they did around the world
And you know this how?
Many of us are quite aware of the shameful past of the UK and most European countries.
The only White European country still practicing imperialism is Russia.
Why are you there? Are there no news in England.
The fascist salute is forbidden... in Italy, in Germany... Apparently it's tolerated during the mentioned marches...Although in AUSTRIA some laws concerning the Nazi past are less restrictive.
What a pointless comment 😂
diffinitly then it should be forbidden to deny aplying to art school in austria
For people to know why this feeling is coming back isn't just because of knuckle-dragging, but because of the systems made post WW2 are failing without truly addressing it. It's leading to people starting to get angry at some politicians/business leaders/media/ and activists who won't stop being whimsical and making real endeavors such as think of one's country before the entire world.
Europe for Europeans.
That’s terrifying! I’m an Italian abroad.. that is one of the reasons because I’m not going back there !
Anche io...
Ahahahahahahahah
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bravi, non tornate !
would it not be facist to shut these people down, saying that you cant hold these demonstrations, becouse of your views?
Tolerance is a social contract; when fascists break the contract, they are no longer tolerated in turn.
If they don’t like finding out, maybe they shouldn’t fuck around?
@@acheybones588 would it be fascist to shut them down because of their views?
@@isax0213 no, shutting down fascists is not fascist.
@@acheybones588 Yet pro Hamas people and communists don't believe in tolerance either, yet you guys have no problem with them for some reason.. be consistent.
@@Lynximus well, are they violent? if they are they should be shut down, but if they aren’t violent why should they. is antifa fascist, I know their name stand for anti-fascist, but they do meet up to counter protest and a handful of them are violent should antifa be banned because of the actions of a few individuals. I know that they did the roman salute in the video however the roman salute existed way before the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei used it, should you be shut down for trying to shut them down, they stated that they aren’t fascist, and you have stated that it isn’t fascist to shut people down because they are "fascist". what stopping me from screaming that you are a fascist and should be thrown in prison for your statements.
Do you see the problem they aren’t fascist for doing the roman salute and they like to paint Hindu sw@st1k@, however you are shutting these people down for their religious practices. Whice makes you the fascist. We can keep going, screaming into an abyss about how you are fascist, or I am fascist, or they are fascist. But if you want to ban people for expressing their believes nonviolent it makes you a fascist. Thanks for coming to my ted talk.
