I was doing a wellness check on MoG and there were the usual hyperbolic thread titles with no basis in reality, however the brand new account that posted them is called 'Rodolfo Graziani'
at least some of the people there are actually going 'wtf there's nothing in these screenshots'
The main charge against the late marshal’s name and character rests on the infamous massacre on Yekatit 12, the date on the Ethiopian calendar equivalent to February 19, 1937, in Addis Ababa of an estimated 19,200 black Ethiopians over a three-day period. The massacre began immediately following Graziani’s near miraculous survival of an assassination attempt.
It is alleged that the Italians executed an additional 1,469 captives the following month. Graziani was forever branded afterward as the Butcher of Ethiopia.
By 1955 Graziani had emerged as the patron saint of the postwar neo-Fascism movement that eventually elected to the Italian Parliament Alessandra Mussolini, Il Duce’s granddaughter. At the time of his death, the unrepentant Fascist marshal was the most prominent and most reviled Italian officer of World War II.
they even check /c/slop and get along with the 'history major', who doesn't seem to mind 'the butcher of ethiopia' fan accounts. clearly we're the ones with 'low literacy':
bonus post about 'cultural marxism' and pissreal's 'right' to self determination:
Or PJ is just lying about being a history major, because they never seem to know even basic facts about history, they've shown similar ignorance towards the Roman empire in the past too, and seem to just use "I'm a history major" as shorthand for "I'm right, you're wrong, reality is wrong, shut up." While I hate bringing up logical fallacies like this, they're just using it as an "appeal to authority", they're the "authority" on the topic which means people aren't allowed to question what they say.
