Italian children eat fascists

We don't need real children, but sometimes Italian students seem a bit "children" in the broadest sense of the term. In the words of Treccani: "a grown-up person who remained naive and simple like a child (with or without the intention of blaming)". Here, Italian students seem a bit "children" to us for how – not now, but especially lately – they select their battles.

From the press reports, it seems to understand that student Italy has finally felt the urgent need to concentrate on: fascism. Everywhere, there is a swarm of anti-fascist marches, anti-fascist garrisons (and garrisons), anti-fascist occupations. And throwing fuel on the fire we think strong headmasters all in one piece intent on brandishing their "pennants" (young men) anti-fascists. In this, revealing themselves to be teachers no less "children" than their child students.

But in what, our valiant returning partisans are "naive and simple", by the dictionary? At least in the fact of having confused the twenties of the twenty-first century with the twenties of the twentieth century. So, rather than dictionary naive, calendar naive. They focus their spring energies against an emergency that doesn't exist and against an enemy defeated by history. And, simpletons as they are, they don't even wonder why they do it. Indeed, for "who" they do it.

Who has an interest in our students arming themselves, and getting excited, against the very bad and very ugly and, above all, very rare fascists? If they were less "children", our puppets would realize that perhaps some puppeteer wants to distract them, like the bullfighter with the bull destined for slaughter. Instead of a red cloth, he waves a black cloth in their faces. So that the children do not see the real "democratic" urgencies of the present millennium, busy as they are in avoiding those of the past millennium.

For example, our children did not realize that they had just come out of a real health "regime" in which they were confined at home against all scientific evidence, in which many of their peers were discriminated against at school, on public transport, in camps sportsmen for refusing an injection that was at best useless and at worst seriously harmful. They have not even noticed that they live in a so-called European "democracy" where the "parliament" has no legislative initiative, where the once sovereign states are reduced to bedside rugs for bankers, investors and bureaucrats, where a super commissioner not elected by anyone stipulates multimillion-dollar agreements for the purchase of a vaccine in our name (therefore, also for "children") via text messages and with contracts that are literally illegible because they are classified.

Children don't even realize how society is built on the dogmas of a hyper-competitive neoliberalism that condemns them to a perpetual precarious adolescence and steals their future (assuming they know what neoliberalism is and if they care about their future). Nor have they ever noticed the inordinate influence of self-styled multi-billionaire philanthropists who leash public organizations like the WHO or stage color "revolutions" to topple unwelcome governments.

At least once, the grandparents of those children took to the streets for social justice and for the freedom to change "class". Today, grandchildren are demanding “climate” justice (whatever that means) and the freedom to change sex. And yet, the propaganda machine is so strong, and so pervasive and extensive, that it has convinced them that either you beat fascism or you die. The truth is that – in the eyes of the puppeteers – the puppets "eat" whatever is offered to them, including crickets and grasshoppers. In addition, it is understood, also the passing fascists.
