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'he-admit-it no-fash

at least some of the people there are actually going 'wtf there's nothing in these screenshots'

Italian Marshal Rodolfo Graziani was the highest ranking Italian war criminal to escape postwar justice during World War II.

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:

Why would "tankies" want to deny the Holocaust when the fact that it happened is one of the most compelling arguments against fascism

It still baffles me that a history major would fail to recognize such an important Axis general. Falling for a prank caller is one thing (in fact, I am willing to bet that that has happened to about half of us at some point), but a history major being clueless about Rodolfo Graziani astounds me. I’ve never even visited a college and I still knew whom he was.

I can only guess that the history courses in Imperial America are less complex than I thought, because otherwise, I am at loss for words.

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.

Gotta love the history major's jab at literacy rates (itself a jab against disadvantaged people, perpetuating the myth of the "simple masses"), even though the first thing the communists do when taking power, other than land reform, is raise literacy rates and expand schooling. Plus, the idea that @AnarchoBolshevik@lemmygrad.ml is illiterate is laughably absurd, given the depth of research into fascism in particular and socialist states in general as well. Surely the history major can recognize a clear fascist, no?
