To be legion
(… always yesterday, at the solemn mass for our patron saint, Giustino, first bishop of Teate, as I was about to leave the presbytery, a faithful – not of the blog that isn't there: of the Blogger that's there, the one from the first century – he approaches me and says: "Please, don't bring back the left!" I don't know what his motivations were, I don't know: here I've been talking about mine for twelve years. however, the reasons are interesting up to a certain point …)

“Ante lucem” referring to Er Palla, what laughs! I also think the journalist who interviewed you yesterday with Marattin is someone who doesn't exist. What a poor figure of your colleague. They begin to be tender. And this after only six months of centre/right government. As Loden liked to say, maybe there's a light at the end of the tunnel. I believe, I hope, one day we will be Legion.

Has television killed reality and therefore AFTER is built without television?

I take advantage of the privilege that ontological extraterritoriality confers on this blog to carry out some brief considerations with you that no one will read, in a blog that does not exist.
I believe you are familiar with Claudius' theory of the two defending legislatures and that of another on the Thirty Years' War, which lasts 30 years (and thus, typically starting in 18, inevitably ending in 18+30=48, which means which in 23 is still in full swing).
In the press review of the last two days I find headlines like this:
or, even better, this:
For example, let's start from here. The current president of the IPZS ( Istituto Poligrafico e Zecca dello Stato ) is Pier Paolo Cento , formerly Green, former undersecretary of the economy of the second tragic Fantozzi , coordinator for Lazio of SEL, then in the Italian Left, journalist, and naturally not trumpeted, but differently elected in 2008 in the Green lists (or similar stuff: if you like, check yourself). Wikipedia doesn't dwell on his technical skills in corporate law, but we can take them for granted: if you're on the left, you're good regardless, so I wouldn't investigate further. The current president of the AU ( Acquirente Unico ) is Filippo Bubbico , formerly PCI-PDS-DS-PD-Article 1, also undersecretary, but at the MISE, in the tragic second Fantozzi, and vice-minister of the interior with Letta (the minor Letta ) in 2013, with a much more articulated Wikipedia page than that of my colleague Cento, but also differently elected (not trumped: differently elected) with LeU at the 2018 policies (therefore I never had the great honor of being his colleague) .
Continuous?
Better not, I'd say this is enough.
So: I obviously don't contest the choice that the Giallorossi government made three years ago (in 2020) to enhance profiles of this thickness in roles of prominence in public investees. I also started this blog because grillism made me (and makes me) vomit: I certainly won't be the one to dispute the fact that a government takes its responsibilities and exercises power, because a government receives a mandate to exercise power, taking responsibility, and whoever insinuates the opposite is doing so only because they want power to be exercised elsewhere, shielded from any responsibility (in particular, shielded from the electoral process ). I also realize that if someone is on the left, it cannot be said that he is trumped, but only that he is "differently elected": a phrase that sounds bad in a seven-column headline: "DIFFERENTLY ELECTED, VERY FAITHFUL AND RAMPANT" is decidedly less incisive of "TRUMPED, FAITHFUL AND RAMPANT". There is an aesthetic of headlines: if the news cannot be given in a way that satisfies its standards, perhaps it is better not to give it, and so do the information operators.
So all right?
I'd say no, but it doesn't matter. It doesn't bother me that information operators make double standards: they are paid for it! It would be like picking on waste collectors for emptying the bins: it wouldn't make sense, they are paid for that (which is really useful work). It bothers me that you don't realize the fact that something is changing and that this change gives so much annoyance to information operators and above all to their principals, as these full-page mega-cracks testify, and therefore, conversely, it should cheer us up. Because how many times, in public or in private, in an acceptable or frankly unacceptable way, have you given me the little lesson (sic) on "we need to intervene on the ruling class, we need here, we need there…" (evoking proscription lists, Nuremberg, Piazzali Loreto, etc.: all things whose humanity can be discussed, but whose total ineffectiveness there is no doubt…)? Now that we finally have the majority and the stability to start a replacement of the ruling class, instead of showing a minimum of approval, the community expresses the likeable max who, while the information scum stigmatizes me as novax and noeuro scum (I'll save examples because suing is better than being sued, believe me…), stigmatizes me in turn as provax and proeuro.
It's all beautiful!
Finding myself under the crossfire of "opposite fecisms" comforts me in a single certainty: undoubtedly, I am disliked by the scum. That won't be reason enough for you to like me, but I hope we can agree that it's a good start, and that's enough for me to delude myself that I'm not in the wrong, since, according to everyone, I'm on the side of at least two wrongs!
Did you want us to do something? We are doing it, the newspapers tell you so. Are you accusing us of cheating on you? So why do the newspapers accuse us of the opposite? The newspapers also say that I deal with appointments, but as you know the newspapers lie, and as you have seen above, I speak from hearsay.
Is that okay?
The extreme synthesis is that we are consolidating the back lines for the four legislatures to play in attack (30 years divided by 5 equals 6 legislatures minus 2 in defense equals 4 in attack). Of course, some fear the risk of ending up with an equipped bastion, but without an army. The risk, however, I believe is more apparent than real. In this community, the casual ones, those who woke up too late, those for whom the discrimination began with the puncture (because before we were the ones discriminated against, and therefore, as the poet says, fuck me ), are few (but otherwise excellent ).
I think, like Luca, that one day we will be Legion: but we have to want it.
That's all.
(… two poems await us: a tragicomic one, the Marattineide, and a tragiridiculous one, the Marcheide. But now I have to leave you: I run to Florence to talk about tax reform …)
