Since I'm getting so many comments about it I'll say here that I never once in the video called Giorgia Meloni or her government fascist, I called her populist. I'm saying in the future I wouldn't be surprised if Italy elected a fascist or much more anti-global government
"They just elected a new government a little reminiscent of their past" is what you said before showing Mussolini. Either you knew exactly what you were doing or you're an idiot
What do you know about Italy?? You are from Canada. If they want to elect a more antiglobal government as you call it to improve their economy and stop illegal immigration good for them
@H0ser your video is filled with propaganda on Italy and the Autnomous region of Sicily do some better research you Canadian bozo before posting videos on Italy and the regions from The Former Kingdom of the Two Sicilies,lets not Forget the Island of Sardinia which is also part of the current Republic of Italy. Before you start criticizing Italy and the Autonomous region of Sicily why don''t you look at your own Backyard Canada which doesnt even have Quebec signed into the confederacy of Canada. How dysfunctional is that? and thats only the beginning. Talk about Hypocrisy comming from a clown who lives in an igloo and hunts seals making videos about the Republic of Italy.
Italy, especially the Southern part, is an example of a low-trust society. The distrust between governments, regions, and even neighbors is what leads to political dysfunction, corruption, and a large organized crime racket. Faith in institutions and a believe in national unity are extremely important to the success of a nation. I think you talked about this a bit in your Somalia video.
Southern Europe, specially Italy, is an example of a country ruined by the EU, as its industry lost the protection it had previously against foreign competitors, leading to Germany and France dominating it economically
@The Philosoraptor Naah.. The House of Aragon and Anjou did the place in. Even when the German Hohenstaufens inherited the kingdom from the Hautevilles it was rich. Why Frederi k the Great was King of Sicily and the HRE. He was also nicknamed Stupor Mundi and started the Sicilian school of literature. After the Hohemstaufens died out just like the Hautevilles before them, a fight broke out between Charles D'Anjou and the House of Aragon for the kingdom. Both were not good for the region
@The Philosoraptor it probably had something to do with the loss of importance of the Mediterranean as well. If you look closely, Sicily is the center of the Mediterranean. No wonder so many fought over the island
As an italian, regionalism is kind of shoehorned as a reason for political instability (at least in modern times), since tv became widely available italy became culturally quite homogenous. Still, small supply chains and local corruption exisr and are a problem but voters broadly don't actively care about regionalism anymore.
>omogenea Ma che cazzo dici che quando ho visitato Napoli (dal Carso) parlavo in Italiano e mi rispondevano in Inglese perché mi scambiavano per un turista tedesco
I’d like to visit Italy one day, I couldn’t imagine just casually seeing architecture from the Roman times when the oldest thing in my city here in the US is probably a tree.
i'm a southern italian and a good 75-80% of what you said in the video is correct, but for exemple nowdays italians already exist, we have a lot of cultural differences and sub-languages going from sicily,heavily influenced by the arabic domination,to the northern regions that talks in a fair bit in languages like austrian or german, we are really a cultural mix but at the same we all feel italians, every part of italy has or had something in common at some point and our history is not really that different,starting from the roman empire

As a Tuscanian, i’m deeply offended that you put Florence as part of Northern Italy. The center is the third piece of the country just like the three colors of the flag
As an Italian this video is interesting, and correct on some aspects, but I find it hasty and superficial. It is true that our governments expire faster than yoghurts, but you forget that all the governments of Italy from 1948 until 1992 came from the same party, the centre-right party Democrazia Cristiana. This granted a certain level of stability. Tangentopoli is not a generalized term for political corruption, but a specific event: a huge corruption scandal in the 1990s that destroyed both the Democrazia Cristiana and their main rival, the Italian Communist Party. The end of these two political giants marked the end of the First Republic and the start of the Second, the age of Silvio Berlusconi. Now we are currently in the Third Republic. You make it look like all the Italian culture came from the North, while for the South you mention only food and mafia. This isn't true. It is true that the mafias, because there are many of them, came first from Southern Italy, but now they are spread to all the nation. About the culture, you forget the Sicilian School, the start of the first Italian poetry, great writers like Luigi Pirandello, painters like Antonello da Messina, musicians like Domenico Cimarosa. All from the South. Don't worry too much about Italy. After two thousand years of invasions, foreign dominations, plagues, wars and endless disgraces both human and natural we have become specialists of survival. Our country is a mess, but we are used to it and we know how to move through it. P. S. Italy was unified in 1861, not 1871.
As a foreigner living in Italy for almost five years (and loving your country), I totally agree with you. Sono completamente d'accordo e grazie del tuo commento. Speriamo l'Italia vada per bene (anzi, meglio) a futuro...
Io che in terza liceo ho appena fatto la scuola siciliana e Federico II (e preso nove in quella verifica) confermo. Il volgare italiano "del sì" nasce nel sud, la prima università non è a bologna ma probabilmente a Palermo (medicina). Giacomo da lentini inventa il Sonetto Ed è il primo importante poeta della penisola.
I'm at the point now where I don't even know what fascism is. Every time I hear the accusation, it means nothing, and it just makes me take things less seriously.
to be fair the current government is technically the successor of Mussolini's party, but really the party went through lots of splits, merges and rebrandings, so it got a LOT more moderate, calling it fascist is pretty much delusional
@@lememz That actually makes it a pretty good litmus test of sorts. Anyone you hear calling Italy's current government 'fascist' cannot possibly have come to that conclusion on their own through any actual analysis or even through realistic ignorance, and therefore can only be referring to it that way as either a deliberate attempt at misinformation or as a thoughtless victim of the same.
As an Italian, I have faith in my generation (namely the one of younger people). I know it sounds naïve, but the Italian younger generation is more aware of Italy's structural issues thanks to information channels like UA-cam. Thus, new political parties that propose structural reforms may rise in the future and improve the state. Italy has an incredible potential: it just has to get its administration working properly
@@diegoyuiop Sadly it is often the case that it takes multiple generations for anything to change. One has to wait for the previous failures to die off and liches to let go of power, then wait out the generation left picking up the pieces and suffering with the consequences before finally a new one can make a substantial difference. And that's assuming there isn't a regression in that middle generation's kids and they all become degenerates or fucked up themselves. And assuming the middle generation is able to mitigate and avoid a total collapse.
I'm an italian young man who knows the many problems of this country. Although I live among young people, they don't know any of these issues. Perhaps it's just because I live in a small town 1h away from Milan, or maybe it's because they just follow football channels and stuff.
it doesn't sounds naive, here a few real numbers!

Just so you know ladies and gentlemen, calling the Italian people racist for not wanting mass immigration and cheap unskilled labour imported into Italy from third world counties is racist itself. The usual comments “ Italians are lazy for not wanting to do the jobs themselves” is wrong simply because people aren’t going to work long hours for dirt cheap wages. Unlike immigrants, free housing and welfare aren’t rewarded to those who’re native to the host country. And no, before any says it because at this point it’s Cliché, they’re not fleeing from wars and famine.

I was in Sicily this summer and got to know a lot of the locals whilst traveling the island. Corruption (mostly funded by the mafia), lack of jobs, and political instability were the points they brought up as the major issues facing them. On a separate note: I HIGHLY advise visiting Sicily. It's a melting pot of Spanish, Norman, Arab and Italian cultures. An amazing place with great people.
@The Philosoraptor Oh dude, I forgot to mention them! I actually went to The valley of the temples in Agrigento and saw some of the first greek colonies. Astonishing place :)
As an 18 year old italian that will move to Germany this august I'm gonna say that I'm sad that I have to leave, Italy is such a beautiful country, both aestethically and curturally, but I don't want to live in a scared state of mind all my life because the job that i work 12h/7d doesn't pay me enough or the economy might collapse any second because of how much debt we accumulated. My decision to move has been finalized because my sister and my brother (wich are both older than me) moved too for the same reasons and are now living happy, full and economically worrieless lifes, but when me and my parents visited I remember asking them if they were happy that they left, and they said that they were kinda sad because, like me, they too love italy and miss it.
It’s not right to move just because things are bad, if people do that, things won’t get better and they will be responsible for the suffering of those left who can’t go, that’s cowardice
Is there really anything wrong with closing your borders to immigrants? Different people wirh different cultures will always have some clash, is it wrong to want to keep outsiders on the outside?
Any Italians that I've met have always said that they were Italian before whatever region they were from so I don't think Italy would break up because the people seem to be too similar to one another. If Italy did break up I think there would be a huge drive to reunite the peninsula under one banner.
Italians would say that they're Italian when talking to foreigners, that they're from a specific region when talking to someone from another region and that they're from a different city when speaking to someone from their own region. It's hard to explain, I feel like it's both a united and disconnected country at the same time.
@@J.o.s.h.u.a. you realize that's the same for literally every country in the world? If you're American what's the use in telling other Americans that you're American?
As a southern Italian I can say that (having always lived here) I can give a less apocalyptic description maybe: The mafia has weakened throughout the country in recent years and is much more hidden, this has the consequence that we are slowly becoming less corrupt as a country, then with regard to politics regionalism does not interest politicians and there is no trace of fascism, even the new government openly says that it is against it, and finally I can say that the distribution of wealth and unemployment are very relative , in fact, it is possible to find areas of the south that are more developed than others of the north
In fact Italy has increased from 42 to 56 in the Corruption Perceptions Index (higher the score, lesser the corruption), it is the only country that has only increased its score and never decreased once since 2012 (the complete opposite happened with Australia).
I love how he mentions how "fascist" the current government is yet completely ignores the Green Pass which is part of the reason this government got elected. Can't get a job or even leave your house because you didn't get a vaccine that doesn't stop transmission? Now THAT is fascism

It's not racist for Italians to not want more immigrants or want the ones that are there out. Racism is if they gave them citizenship and then down the line want them expelled or discriminated against.
I agree however, racism is definitely more than that. There’s groups of people that want a green light to physically attack “others” regardless of age. Nothing wrong with defending borders but if people resort to assaults then that point dies

I must completely disagree with one major point: regionalism is not a problem. The real issue is that money is given to poorer regions without giving expectations as such they have created "braindead" regions that are only kept alive due to subsidies but that is NOT regionalism if anything it is more resembling a centralist system. If it were regionalism, Southern Italy should be incentivized to grow its economy and deal with its problems with way more autonomy which should lead, in the long run, to Southern Italy becoming economically self-sustainable. Together with Northern Italy, it should create a number of buffers which by strengthening the region ultimately strengthens Italy.

And also, America always looks politically unstable from the outside, but its pretty stable. both parties are basically the same and the federal government actually doesnt do too much.

Meloni's political slogan shows ideals that are awfully similar to those held by Mussolini (Dio,patria e famiglia - God,country and family). Meloni also has participated in a coalition with another right party that uses fascist imagery and she has declared in an interview her support for Mussolini (although this interview is quite old,considering other factors we should take this into consideration.) One of fascism's core ideals is the common enemy; in a way to install fear and violence in a fascist government,the blame for the countries socio-economical problems is shifted upon a group of outsiders. We can recognize this tactic in nazi germany where Jews and other people who didn't fit the Aryan ideal where persecuted. While there isn't any persecution similar to that of the Nazis in Italy, meloni's policies does promote an anti-immigrant sentiment and putting Italians first before everyone else. Some of Meloni's policies do aim to reintegrate policies that are fueled by fascist ideals,like the correction of deviances in young people through exercise or the opposition to gay people's rights to adopt in a way to preserve the nuclear family. While Meloni's government is not outright a fascist one,(we Italians do have our fascist party btw.)it is the most far right government we have ever had in history and considering all of the things I've listed i don't blame anyone that's speculating it. So don't blame Italians for fearing for the future of our country Hope this helped,here's the sources: (i apologize that they're in Italian) ua-cam.com/video/6YV0tPE8r58/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/quG6eVKq22g/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/KmaIuGJWbEA/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/aIkZ6RZY2UQ/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/V5S4U6NT99s/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/qkWeT5V9-8s/v-deo.html
Considering that Switzerland has a similar regionalist phenomenon called "Kantönligeist" and still functions well as a republic, maybe Italy should reform its gov system and become federalised. I'm sure this will cool down some of the chaos and bickering among its national government.
LOL That would start riots down South. A federalist system would mean a lot less money for them. You have no idea how many billions Lire and now Euros have been funnelled down there over the decades. Federalism is a long-cherished dream for many Northern Italians. But it will never happen.
@@angelat7957 Yes and that would also mean they'd have to pull themselves up and get local GDP growing. There are many underlying but beneficial incentive structures within a federal system, although off its not always beneficial when it comes to harmful competition. But throwing money at underdeveloped regions doesn't do much unless there is a reason for these regions to grow and reform their administration.
The northern regions would like a federal system and have been asking for it for years (it also seems to be possible according to the Constitution), but the southern regions are strongly opposed to this reform. Without money transfers from north to south (an estimated 1,000 billion euros in the last 20 years alone) the southern regions would be in a big crisis.
Well, let’s just say that despite the fact that more money has been poured into the southern regions recently, historically northern Italy has been preferred by the central government, and has received more investments, in the form of infrastructure, industrial facilities and so on, especially during the 50’s-60’s as the “triangolo industriale” (Genoa, Milan and Turin) was developing. Things as simple as taking a look at our highway system and how much more developed it is in the north, or our railway system for that matter too, despite both being centrally mandated, should be enough to make anyone realize which side has historically been more “liked”. Switching to a system like the Swiss one, on the basis of all these differences, that again, were not the southerners fault, but crafted by the central government, would just be unfair to the locals.
What’s more is Miloni is a Freemason, she’s not even a genuine right winger, just a controlled opposition proxy installed to ensure the people on the right don’t actually have their way, which would entail the ‘current thing’ permanently ending. Controlled opposition is happening everywhere, from Bukele in El Salvador, to Mellie in Argentina to Wilders in Netherlands.
If you're an immigrant, you're best off not choosing Italy as a destination. Not only are your chances of prosperity low, but you're eventually gonna become a scapegoat for their economic failures.
In italy regionalism is really not a thing. I myself can't speak friulian or veneto, nor anyone I've met, excluding the all-mighty "cio" we add at the end just as an emphasis. We also only care about which region someone is from to get an idea of the lifestyle they grew up in, but besides that we all speak the same language, with just a bit of an accent.
Invoking the term "Fascism" as it relates to Italy's current government is a bit hyperbolic to say the least. Honestly, at this point, I've come to the conclusion 99/100 when someone says something is "fascist"..... they mean it’s anti-"progressive"/ conservative.
FdI, the party of the prime minister, has the flame of the MSI, the neo fascist party. Plus, they are the party with the most members affiliated with mafia and with links to fascist movements/persons But it is wrong to say they are fascist: they are populist, they like to tell they are not ONLY anti fascism, they are antifascism and anticomunism
nah man Giorgia Meloni is still inspired by fascist ideals (expecially by the M.S.I a literal neofascist party founded by Giorgio Almirante and her party still bear that symbol) and if you dig in her younger years ohhh boy
@@motozappa225 She may be inspired but as long as She doesn't slip on too much suspicious stuff she May be ok. Few people know that the italian costitution, which Is considered one of the best in the world, was written by democrats, communist but also ex fascist groups of people.

One Clarification: Meloni's government hasn't changed almost anything. The Economy is still spiraling down the gutter, the cities are still dirty and messy,corruption is still rampant and inflation is the same. No,our government isn't making us walk around in black suits and march in the streets,neither making italy more authoritarian than it already was under so called "pro-liberty" governments. They are just like all the other governments. No matter if left or right,the one thing they all have in common is that they can't and don't care about fixing italy.

There is nothing wrong or racist with native, ethnic Italians wanting to vote for a government that prioritizes their own wellbeing and interests over the wellbeing and interests of foreigners and illegal immigrants. It is their natural birthright as said native, ethnic Italians to unilaterally declare that all illegal and/or legal immigrants must leave their sovereign territory, just as any other nation has that right. There is no acceptable moral presumption for any nation or people to feel guilty or embarrassed for making laws restricting or halting immigration all-together, on the contrary I would argue that all governments have a responsibility to do exactly so as to protect the rights and privileges of their native citizens from foreign violence and competition.
I know this is an old video so you might not see this comment, do you have a source where you say the mafia makes up about a suspected 10% of Italian GDP? "The mafia makes up probably about 10% of all Italian GDP, mostly in YUP the south." at 5:00 is the quote I'm referring to. I'd be interested in learning more.
Nice video man, i lulled so bard as an Italian. You got a lot of stuff right, nice work! Obv it's hard to describe an entire country and it's whole different realities in a video on youtube. I wanted do add some peculiar stuff! In Italy especially in the north, you have super advanced robotics / ai / cars / autonomous cars / agricultural machines companies. In the city I live in, Parma for reference, there's the big data center for all autonomous cars. Plus it's here that they discovered the neurons that act as a 'mirror' (those that basically let you understand better people, like: you yawning when your friend yawned helped us in the past get alike and form tribes/similar cultures). And then you have the recents quantum physics experiments (like the super recent one on entanglement that I think led to the Nobel prize for physics that demonstrated the non local realness of the universe). To conclude mafia and criminals have been at the government since the re-unification. Italy after the conquer/de -nazification by USA have basically been run by them. For example back in the first republic, the CIA was running the operation called gladio (historical fact check it up!): basically if in italy the left had won the elections, lots of silent cell military guys had to fake a rebellion from the people to make the government fail. After that, under the Renzi leadership, we got bought by Blackrock (biggest investment company in the USA, hold around 10% of the whole stockmarket, the CEO is the cause of the 2008 crisis) so we're always fine with getting in debt! Ps: curiously enough a lot of the heads of the Central Europe Bank are italians.

Before you start criticizing Italy and the Autonomous region of Sicily why don''t you look at your own Backyard Canada which doesnt even have Quebec signed into the confederacy of Canada. How dysfunctional is that? and thats only the beginning.
Talk about Hypocrisy comming from a clown who lives in an igloo and hunts seals making videos about the Republic of Italy.
Italy, especially the Southern part, is an example of a low-trust society. The distrust between governments, regions, and even neighbors is what leads to political dysfunction, corruption, and a large organized crime racket. Faith in institutions and a believe in national unity are extremely important to the success of a nation. I think you talked about this a bit in your Somalia video.
Southern Europe, specially Italy, is an example of a country ruined by the EU, as its industry lost the protection it had previously against foreign competitors, leading to Germany and France dominating it economically
@The Philosoraptor which is ironic as it was the opposite in the times of the Hautevilles
@The Philosoraptor Naah.. The House of Aragon and Anjou did the place in.
Even when the German Hohenstaufens inherited the kingdom from the Hautevilles it was rich. Why Frederi k the Great was King of Sicily and the HRE. He was also nicknamed Stupor Mundi and started the Sicilian school of literature.
After the Hohemstaufens died out just like the Hautevilles before them, a fight broke out between Charles D'Anjou and the House of Aragon for the kingdom.
Both were not good for the region
As an Italian I can confirm that it's true, here in the north of Italy we even make fun of southern Italians.. . Sadly 😕
@The Philosoraptor it probably had something to do with the loss of importance of the Mediterranean as well.
If you look closely, Sicily is the center of the Mediterranean. No wonder so many fought over the island
As an italian, regionalism is kind of shoehorned as a reason for political instability (at least in modern times), since tv became widely available italy became culturally quite homogenous. Still, small supply chains and local corruption exisr and are a problem but voters broadly don't actively care about regionalism anymore.

i'm a southern italian and a good 75-80% of what you said in the video is correct, but for exemple nowdays italians already exist, we have a lot of cultural differences and sub-languages going from sicily,heavily influenced by the arabic domination,to the northern regions that talks in a fair bit in languages like austrian or german, we are really a cultural mix but at the same we all feel italians, every part of italy has or had something in common at some point and our history is not really that different,starting from the roman empire

As an Italian this video is interesting, and correct on some aspects, but I find it hasty and superficial. It is true that our governments expire faster than yoghurts, but you forget that all the governments of Italy from 1948 until 1992 came from the same party, the centre-right party Democrazia Cristiana. This granted a certain level of stability. Tangentopoli is not a generalized term for political corruption, but a specific event: a huge corruption scandal in the 1990s that destroyed both the Democrazia Cristiana and their main rival, the Italian Communist Party. The end of these two political giants marked the end of the First Republic and the start of the Second, the age of Silvio Berlusconi. Now we are currently in the Third Republic.
You make it look like all the Italian culture came from the North, while for the South you mention only food and mafia. This isn't true. It is true that the mafias, because there are many of them, came first from Southern Italy, but now they are spread to all the nation. About the culture, you forget the Sicilian School, the start of the first Italian poetry, great writers like Luigi Pirandello, painters like Antonello da Messina, musicians like Domenico Cimarosa. All from the South.
Don't worry too much about Italy. After two thousand years of invasions, foreign dominations, plagues, wars and endless disgraces both human and natural we have become specialists of survival. Our country is a mess, but we are used to it and we know how to move through it.
P. S. Italy was unified in 1861, not 1871.

Welcome to the club
Basically , it's anything that dosn't align with radical woke leftism.
to be fair the current government is technically the successor of Mussolini's party, but really the party went through lots of splits, merges and rebrandings, so it got a LOT more moderate, calling it fascist is pretty much delusional

@@lememz That actually makes it a pretty good litmus test of sorts. Anyone you hear calling Italy's current government 'fascist' cannot possibly have come to that conclusion on their own through any actual analysis or even through realistic ignorance, and therefore can only be referring to it that way as either a deliberate attempt at misinformation or as a thoughtless victim of the same.
As an Italian, I have faith in my generation (namely the one of younger people). I know it sounds naïve, but the Italian younger generation is more aware of Italy's structural issues thanks to information channels like UA-cam. Thus, new political parties that propose structural reforms may rise in the future and improve the state. Italy has an incredible potential: it just has to get its administration working properly

And that's assuming there isn't a regression in that middle generation's kids and they all become degenerates or fucked up themselves. And assuming the middle generation is able to mitigate and avoid a total collapse.

The usual comments “ Italians are lazy for not wanting to do the jobs themselves” is wrong simply because people aren’t going to work long hours for dirt cheap wages.
Unlike immigrants, free housing and welfare aren’t rewarded to those who’re native to the host country.
And no, before any says it because at this point it’s Cliché, they’re not fleeing from wars and famine.
You can’t be racist against Italians. It’s called being xenophobic, they’re different things. Being Italian isn’t a race it’s an ethnicity

I was in Sicily this summer and got to know a lot of the locals whilst traveling the island. Corruption (mostly funded by the mafia), lack of jobs, and political instability were the points they brought up as the major issues facing them.
On a separate note: I HIGHLY advise visiting Sicily. It's a melting pot of Spanish, Norman, Arab and Italian cultures. An amazing place with great people.
Sicily culture is already italian culture... also, every place got influences from sorrounding areas. Sicily is no different

As an 18 year old italian that will move to Germany this august I'm gonna say that I'm sad that I have to leave, Italy is such a beautiful country, both aestethically and curturally, but I don't want to live in a scared state of mind all my life because the job that i work 12h/7d doesn't pay me enough or the economy might collapse any second because of how much debt we accumulated. My decision to move has been finalized because my sister and my brother (wich are both older than me) moved too for the same reasons and are now living happy, full and economically worrieless lifes, but when me and my parents visited I remember asking them if they were happy that they left, and they said that they were kinda sad because, like me, they too love italy and miss it.
It’s not right to move just because things are bad, if people do that, things won’t get better and they will be responsible for the suffering of those left who can’t go, that’s cowardice

For libtards yes
Any Italians that I've met have always said that they were Italian before whatever region they were from so I don't think Italy would break up because the people seem to be too similar to one another. If Italy did break up I think there would be a huge drive to reunite the peninsula under one banner.
I think that we do not say from which region we're from because nobody would understand, not because we identify as italian as a whole.
that's coming from me and my friends, some middle class northenerns, so take it with a pinch of salt
Italians would say that they're Italian when talking to foreigners, that they're from a specific region when talking to someone from another region and that they're from a different city when speaking to someone from their own region.

Italy pays more money to the EU than it receives, we are not lazy, we are exploited.
As a person that lives in northern Italy, I see so many southern Italians over here , but I am not complaining
As a southern Italian I can say that (having always lived here) I can give a less apocalyptic description maybe: The mafia has weakened throughout the country in recent years and is much more hidden, this has the consequence that we are slowly becoming less corrupt as a country, then with regard to politics regionalism does not interest politicians and there is no trace of fascism, even the new government openly says that it is against it, and finally I can say that the distribution of wealth and unemployment are very relative , in fact, it is possible to find areas of the south that are more developed than others of the north
In fact Italy has increased from 42 to 56 in the Corruption Perceptions Index (higher the score, lesser the corruption), it is the only country that has only increased its score and never decreased once since 2012 (the complete opposite happened with Australia).
He seems biased against southern Italy... he basically put some stereotypes in a video, I have to say
I love how he mentions how "fascist" the current government is yet completely ignores the Green Pass which is part of the reason this government got elected. Can't get a job or even leave your house because you didn't get a vaccine that doesn't stop transmission? Now THAT is fascism

It's not racist for Italians to not want more immigrants or want the ones that are there out.
Racism is if they gave them citizenship and then down the line want them expelled or discriminated against.
I agree however, racism is definitely more than that. There’s groups of people that want a green light to physically attack “others” regardless of age. Nothing wrong with defending borders but if people resort to assaults then that point dies

I must completely disagree with one major point: regionalism is not a problem.
The real issue is that money is given to poorer regions without giving expectations as such they have created "braindead" regions that are only kept alive due to subsidies but that is NOT regionalism if anything it is more resembling a centralist system.
If it were regionalism, Southern Italy should be incentivized to grow its economy and deal with its problems with way more autonomy which should lead, in the long run, to Southern Italy becoming economically self-sustainable. Together with Northern Italy, it should create a number of buffers which by strengthening the region ultimately strengthens Italy.

Meloni's political slogan shows ideals that are awfully similar to those held by Mussolini (Dio,patria e famiglia - God,country and family).
Meloni also has participated in a coalition with another right party that uses fascist imagery and she has declared in an interview her support for Mussolini (although this interview is quite old,considering other factors we should take this into consideration.)
One of fascism's core ideals is the common enemy; in a way to install fear and violence in a fascist government,the blame for the countries socio-economical problems is shifted upon a group of outsiders.
We can recognize this tactic in nazi germany where Jews and other people who didn't fit the Aryan ideal where persecuted.
While there isn't any persecution similar to that of the Nazis in Italy, meloni's policies does promote an anti-immigrant sentiment and putting Italians first before everyone else.
Some of Meloni's policies do aim to reintegrate policies that are fueled by fascist ideals,like the correction of deviances in young people through exercise or the opposition to gay people's rights to adopt in a way to preserve the nuclear family.
While Meloni's government is not outright a fascist one,(we Italians do have our fascist party btw.)it is the most far right government we have ever had in history and considering all of the things I've listed i don't blame anyone that's speculating it. So don't blame Italians for fearing for the future of our country

Italy: Slide to the left, slide to the right.
Italy in wars: Crisscross
Slide to the Right🇮🇹🇮🇹
@@concalvinator i love this one lol
I feel so honoured but also so preoccupied you decided to do a video on my country
As an Italian i can say that the war really is ruining us
He is a deracinated Leftist American consumer to whom nationalist politics is blasphemy.
Considering that Switzerland has a similar regionalist phenomenon called "Kantönligeist" and still functions well as a republic, maybe Italy should reform its gov system and become federalised. I'm sure this will cool down some of the chaos and bickering among its national government.
LOL That would start riots down South. A federalist system would mean a lot less money for them. You have no idea how many billions Lire and now Euros have been funnelled down there over the decades. Federalism is a long-cherished dream for many Northern Italians. But it will never happen.
@@angelat7957 Yes and that would also mean they'd have to pull themselves up and get local GDP growing. There are many underlying but beneficial incentive structures within a federal system, although off its not always beneficial when it comes to harmful competition. But throwing money at underdeveloped regions doesn't do much unless there is a reason for these regions to grow and reform their administration.
The northern regions would like a federal system and have been asking for it for years (it also seems to be possible according to the Constitution), but the southern regions are strongly opposed to this reform.
Without money transfers from north to south (an estimated 1,000 billion euros in the last 20 years alone) the southern regions would be in a big crisis.
Well, let’s just say that despite the fact that more money has been poured into the southern regions recently, historically northern Italy has been preferred by the central government, and has received more investments, in the form of infrastructure, industrial facilities and so on, especially during the 50’s-60’s as the “triangolo industriale” (Genoa, Milan and Turin) was developing.
Things as simple as taking a look at our highway system and how much more developed it is in the north, or our railway system for that matter too, despite both being centrally mandated, should be enough to make anyone realize which side has historically been more “liked”.
Switching to a system like the Swiss one, on the basis of all these differences, that again, were not the southerners fault, but crafted by the central government, would just be unfair to the locals.
>Rightwing bad
>Leftwing good
This is all so tiresome.
What’s more is Miloni is a Freemason, she’s not even a genuine right winger, just a controlled opposition proxy installed to ensure the people on the right don’t actually have their way, which would entail the ‘current thing’ permanently ending. Controlled opposition is happening everywhere, from Bukele in El Salvador, to Mellie in Argentina to Wilders in Netherlands.
If you're an immigrant, you're best off not choosing Italy as a destination. Not only are your chances of prosperity low, but you're eventually gonna become a scapegoat for their economic failures.
I bet its the best option for them compared to where they came from
In italy regionalism is really not a thing. I myself can't speak friulian or veneto, nor anyone I've met, excluding the all-mighty "cio" we add at the end just as an emphasis. We also only care about which region someone is from to get an idea of the lifestyle they grew up in, but besides that we all speak the same language, with just a bit of an accent.
Aaaand what italian dialect is predominant in Italy?
Invoking the term "Fascism" as it relates to Italy's current government is a bit hyperbolic to say the least. Honestly, at this point, I've come to the conclusion 99/100 when someone says something is "fascist"..... they mean it’s anti-"progressive"/ conservative.
Yeah people still believe what the Guardian or media outlet like that says.
I see nothing wrong with trying to stop illegal immigration you're not facists, you're protecting your nation.
FdI, the party of the prime minister, has the flame of the MSI, the neo fascist party. Plus, they are the party with the most members affiliated with mafia and with links to fascist movements/persons
But it is wrong to say they are fascist: they are populist, they like to tell they are not ONLY anti fascism, they are antifascism and anticomunism
nah man Giorgia Meloni is still inspired by fascist ideals (expecially by the M.S.I a literal neofascist party founded by Giorgio Almirante and her party still bear that symbol) and if you dig in her younger years ohhh boy
@@motozappa225 She may be inspired but as long as She doesn't slip on too much suspicious stuff she May be ok. Few people know that the italian costitution, which Is considered one of the best in the world, was written by democrats, communist but also ex fascist groups of people.
In the 80s, my dad worked on Arriane's rocket engines in Milan, while the south was being run by the mob as much as ever, I think that says it all really
What it says lmao
In the 1920s, my grandpa worked in a construction company in america while the government was banning alcohol. I think that says it all really
@@sl4tra you're making out like my comment was a non-sequiter, but no, it's about the video's point about the long standing north/south divide in italy
The sponsorship delivery was actually well executed!!
I`m actually eating spaghetti while an american youtuber reminds me how my country is failing, and how i`m going to get executed if i don`t praise my cute supreme leader Giorgia.
My favourite European country by far. So much culture history food is amazing and so is the beer. And the weather's perfect
and here a few real numbers about the economy, google itself! Data from Bloomberg 2024 With more than 105,000 high-tech companies, Italy has the fastest-growing life sciences sector in Europe and is a leader in machinery, renewable energy, pharmaceuticals and robotics. This is from International Trade Administration report 01.2024= In 2022, robot installations in Italy reached a new record, a 6.5% increase over 2021, with 12,432 new installations. Imports made up 90% of purchases and increased by 7.3%. 81% of the new installations were of articulated robots (the most versatile), an 8.7% increase. Installations of SCARA robots (versatile range of motion but with a fixed vertical axis) grew by 2.5%, while those of cartesian robots (linear motion) fell 6.9%. The main applications are for manipulation, assembly, welding, soldering, and cutting. International Trade agency 2024= Italy is the 2 largest manufacturer in EU and 7 worldwide!
Very interesting video! i always enjoy these, but i would really like to see a video about spain's future
He doesn't realise this is a good thing
Little Enzo watched your video, now he's joining Lega Nord.
Aha to be more poorer than southern and central Italy with Greece combined.
10:15 Why the fuck is Algeria's animal so damn adorable.
I like the part where he explained how Meloni is fascist.
(He didn't)
Maybe she isnt fascist
@@slayride136 The real fascists were the friends we made along the way.
@@alby1529 maybe she isn't into the most classic way but there is a old video were she praise Mussolini with "He did good things" bs.
@@ANDREALEONE95 Are you getting paid per silly comment ?
@@ANDREALEONE95 He unironically did. His biggest mistake was allying with Hitler. Had he not, Italy probably took the same approach Spain did. i.e. Axis (though it would be called something else in this scenario) sympathizer, but ultimately siding with the Allies in an anti-communist alliance, with the rightoid regime uneventfully fizzling out after a few decades when it fixed the problems with the nation and was no longer needed.
Make a video about Poland, it's gonna be very interesting imo.
Bruh how the hell Firenze is in the Po Valley ahaha
No freakin way Florentia is in Po Valley.
Was recently in Italy beautiful country very historical loves it❤
I love how Europe's definition of a fascist is right of Stalin
What's your definition? Does it include a Mussolini fan who leads a party descended from fascism?
Bro what the fuck you on about 💀💀💀
@@isaac3140 whats your definition of racism? and also, do you literally have nothing better to do than pointlessly spout shitty opinions on half of the comment section?
We Face many of the same problems i hope we work closer together in the near future to promote our common interests. Btw Rome is beautiful and a model on how Athens should move forward. Μία φάτσα μία ράτσα
🇬🇷❤🇮🇹
Athens is beautiful, I don’t want to see it becoming like our dirty Rome. Stay strong Greeks!

nope, Greece is not near Italy's economic power. here a few real numbers about the economy, google itself!

The papal state was the main problem for the division in noth and south
The Papal State was the cause that prevented the unification of Italy for centuries!
One Clarification:
Meloni's government hasn't changed almost anything.
The Economy is still spiraling down the gutter, the cities are still dirty and messy,corruption is still rampant and inflation is the same.
No,our government isn't making us walk around in black suits and march in the streets,neither making italy more authoritarian than it already was under so called "pro-liberty" governments.
They are just like all the other governments.
No matter if left or right,the one thing they all have in common is that they can't and don't care about fixing italy.
How about italians themselfs? The care to fix their country or just they collecting money to escape from Italy to Germany or US?
spiraling down??? here a few real numbers!

AVE CESARE!
There is nothing wrong or racist with native, ethnic Italians wanting to vote for a government that prioritizes their own wellbeing and interests over the wellbeing and interests of foreigners and illegal immigrants. It is their natural birthright as said native, ethnic Italians to unilaterally declare that all illegal and/or legal immigrants must leave their sovereign territory, just as any other nation has that right. There is no acceptable moral presumption for any nation or people to feel guilty or embarrassed for making laws restricting or halting immigration all-together, on the contrary I would argue that all governments have a responsibility to do exactly so as to protect the rights and privileges of their native citizens from foreign violence and competition.
I know this is an old video so you might not see this comment, do you have a source where you say the mafia makes up about a suspected 10% of Italian GDP? "The mafia makes up probably about 10% of all Italian GDP, mostly in YUP the south." at 5:00 is the quote I'm referring to. I'd be interested in learning more.
Nice video man, i lulled so bard as an Italian. You got a lot of stuff right, nice work! Obv it's hard to describe an entire country and it's whole different realities in a video on youtube. I wanted do add some peculiar stuff! In Italy especially in the north, you have super advanced robotics / ai / cars / autonomous cars / agricultural machines companies. In the city I live in, Parma for reference, there's the big data center for all autonomous cars. Plus it's here that they discovered the neurons that act as a 'mirror' (those that basically let you understand better people, like: you yawning when your friend yawned helped us in the past get alike and form tribes/similar cultures).
And then you have the recents quantum physics experiments (like the super recent one on entanglement that I think led to the Nobel prize for physics that demonstrated the non local realness of the universe).
To conclude mafia and criminals have been at the government since the re-unification. Italy after the conquer/de -nazification by USA have basically been run by them. For example back in the first republic, the CIA was running the operation called gladio (historical fact check it up!): basically if in italy the left had won the elections, lots of silent cell military guys had to fake a rebellion from the people to make the government fail. After that, under the Renzi leadership, we got bought by Blackrock (biggest investment company in the USA, hold around 10% of the whole stockmarket, the CEO is the cause of the 2008 crisis) so we're always fine with getting in debt!
Ps: curiously enough a lot of the heads of the Central Europe Bank are italians.

Of course, one turn to the right and word "fascism" appears immediately.
Well, post-WW2 right was made by recycled fascists and nowadays still winks at it.
It's a admittance of guilt really. They think any slide to the right is gonna lead to facism. Which only really shows their full intentions as they slide to the left more and more. And anyone trying to return to the center of what everyone considered normal national behavior is now their enemy.
@@xShadowChrisx In Italy right and fascism is a far more complex issue.
@@ANDREALEONE95 but geez, do we really have to immediately compare them to Mussolini when they show dedication towards the nation that raised them?
@@polishscribe674 in a way or another yes, because we can't pretend that they did not descend from Fascists party or have sympathies. Post WW2 explain it well.
I’m watching this on vacation in Italy
9:19 brooo too true 🤣
They WHAT?!
