The rudeness in politics
When politics becomes rude and finally even violent. Damato's Scratches
That Ignazio La Russa , president of the Senate, seen in the photos and in some newscasts next to the President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella, in the hall of Palazzo Madama which was hosting the Christmas concert, with his face turned up to his right, was not looking for a namesake of the logistician identified at La Scala who a few days earlier had practically shouted at him his hurray for anti-fascist Italy. Which La Russa, guest of the royal park, later declared to journalists that he had not heard and which today in the Corriere della Sera he commented by saying in an interview: "A phrase shouted by a horse racing enthusiast was enough for him to turn to the left in a kind of national hero, like Scurati, who lives on fascism thanks to his books. Think about it, something isn't working."
I believe that the president of the Senate had looked up to ascertain whether the former left-wing parliamentarian Paola Concia, who he personally invited to the concert also out of solidarity after the controversy over her controversial and failed nomination as president of a commission for affectivity in schools, had reconsidered. And, instead of remaining in Germany with his life partner, he had reached Palazzo Madama. No, he hadn't. He continued to prefer to oppose a polemical absence to what Giuliano Ferrara on the Foglio rightly defined as "stupid" and "painful", writing about the "leave" imposed on Concia thus: "I have been against unigender marriage since the right-wing governments had short trousers, but what does that have to do with relationship education, which is an oddity full of good intentions? Nothing".
CIVILIZATION IN POLITICS
These are words in which, believing I know him, I believe the President of the Senate also fully recognized himself this morning after having recounted this episode of his long parliamentary experience which began in the Chamber in 1992 in the aforementioned interview with the Corriere : "Another friend of mine is was Vladimir Luxuria. I remember that when she was elected she was intimidated, she didn't know how she would be received. I, who was the leader of the AN, gave a rose to all those elected as a welcome. A clerk asked me: “But also in Luxuria?”. And I said: “And why not, sorry?”. She really liked it, especially because it broke the ice and a beautiful relationship was born."
Here you are. This is a civilized way of conceiving interpersonal and political relationships, even frequenting the galleries in the theater rather than the stalls and boxes of various degrees and denominations. Everything else, before even becoming violence, is simply rudeness and rudeness. To which politics has been reduced by too many who practice and frequent it, even in the Chambers uselessly reduced by grillini in the seats, with the effect of making those who don't know how to sit there and remain in the right way see better. Any allusion to Giuseppe Conte who calls ministers cowards and tears up documents out of contempt or protest is not accidental but deliberate.
