“Anti-voting activists”. How absurd
here in italy there was a referendum about increasing workers' rights but all the right wingers siad that voitng is for communists who eat babies and that if you vote you vote you want the shadow elite governmetn to eradicate all the italian culture to replace it with a muslim califfate and remove the existencve of christianity from the history of humanity, but now that we're about to vote for the government-supported judiciary reform that will give the governmetn direcet control over the election of the judges, all right wingers are rushing to vote
Weird, in Belgium a similar law was struck down by the constitutional court the other day. Hearing this from Italy, I can't help but think this is being orchestrated on a higher level.
It is part of project 2025. Fratelli d'Italia (the party of Giorgia Meloni, the Italian prime minister) and the republican party are very tight with each other. So much that Giorgia Meloni herself participates republican rallies and conventions sometimes so I wouldn't be surprised if they're following the diktats of the republican party or any foreign imposed authoritarian agenda
ahhh now my penny drops. They are in the ECR fraction in the European Parliament, same fraction as NVA, the party of Belgium's prime minister, and also the minister of defense who's a vocal Trump supporter, still. It makes sense now, thanks!
Yep, traitors the lot of em.
