I know there's a database for the victims and survivors of the Holocaust, but is there any such database for the victims and survivors of Italian fascism itself?

The Uses of History, 41 – Mussolini and Fascism, 13 – The Fate of the Duce

On September 12, 1943, a squad of 16 elite SS Commandos, with a couple of platoons of crack German parachute troops, performed a very risky mission by gliding onto the mountain side of the remote resort Hotel Imperatore, north-east of Rome. German troops had just occupied Rome, and Hitler wanted to legitimize his seizure of his former mentor’s country as a German vassal state by creating a…

"Lucien Greaves" talks about his favorite(?) Italian fascist

Via The.Satanic.Wiki

On Sept. 11, 2003, future co-owner of The Satanic Temple Doug “Lucien Greaves” Misicko, his friend and collaborator Shane Bugbee, and Shane Bugbee’s wife Amy Stocky hosted a 24-hour Internet radio stream with guests and callers to mark the release of their new edition of the proto-fascist manifesto Might Is Right. The following year, Doug Misicko continued to appear on Internet radio streams with Shane and Amy. “The ABCs of the Alphabet” was one such program. This is an excerpt from one of those recordings.

CW: praise of fascists

Full transcript:

26:46 Shane Bugbee 

Tune in for the last five minutes- or 10 minutes of the F show, and you'll hear more talk about this. This is the I show. Doug? We have three minutes. Talk about Italy in the start of fascism and where you visited. That was a very interesting story. And you have three minutes to do it.

27:01 Doug Misicko 

Okay. Yeah. So I went to Italy. I got back about a couple months ago, and I was there for a couple of months. And I went to a place in Northern Italy called Gardone Riviera. And that's where Gabriele D'Annunzio's house was. Most people don't know who Gabriele D'Annunzio was, but he's like this Italian World War One war hero. He was a playwright and a poet- (Shane Bugbee: Italian, "I".) Yeah, Italy... So, we went over there- I went over there. And it was a beautiful place. He was he's a poet and a playwright. And he talked- but he basically talked Italy into going into World War One because he thought Italy deserved more of the Balkan territory that they didn't have and everything else. And the Allies told them that if they came into the war, that they would get those territories. Well, D'Annunzio was considered a war hero because not only did he talk everybody into going to war, but he actually participated in the war, much unlike our Rumsfelds, Colons, Dicks, and Bushes, but anyways, he lost an eye in World War One. But after World War One, they didn't give Italy these territories. So he took his volunteers, the Blackshirts, they went unoccupied the territories for a while. And that was the original Blackshirts. Those were the original fascists, and Mussolini aligned themselves with him and them. And he was writing for a newspaper at the time and claiming that he was all about them. D'Annunzio didn't like Mussolini, he was saying, "You say you're going to support us but you haven't sent provisions? You haven't sent men. You're just a you're just a fucking idiot" — for "I". And so when Mussolini came to power, right, D'Annunzio was basically confined to his house because he was he was a liability to the fascists. He could make them look bad. So he spent fascist money like it was going out of style, basically on the agreement that he was exiled to his home. So anyways, I went to this home, being that he spent their money like it was going out of style, It was beautiful. It was a palace. He's a very eccentric man, too. He had a room that- his rooms all had themes. One was like a funeral room, it was like it had like a coffin-

29:12 Shane Bugbee 

Oh I love that- I've always wanted. And it's funny, you say that: I've always wanted to have themed rooms.

29:16 Doug Misicko 

He had one where the+ the theme was severed hand. There was hands all painted on the walls and everything is just he was into it. He was- he was great.

25 April - Anniversary of Italy's Liberation

25 April also known as the Anniversary of Italy's Liberation is a national holiday in Italy that commemorates the victory of the Italian resistance movement against Nazi Germany and the Italian Social Republic, puppet state of the Nazis and rump state of the fascists, culmination of the liberation of Italy from German occupation and of the Italian civil war in the latter phase of World War II. That is distinct from Republic Day (Festa della Repubblica), which takes place on 2 June and commemorates the 1946 Italian institutional referendum.

Every year on 25 April Italy celebrates Liberation Day, known in Italian as Festa della Liberazione, with a national public holiday.

In addition to the closure of schools, public offices and most shops, the day is marked with parades across the country, organised by ANPI, Italy's partisan association which preserves the memory of the Resistance movement against Fascism.

The occasion is held in commemoration of the end of the Fascist regime and of the Nazi occupation during world war two, as well as the victory of Italy's Resistance movement of partisans who opposed the regime.

Formed in 1943, the partigiani comprised a network of anti-Fascist activists, from diverse backgrounds including workers, farmers, students and intellectuals, across Italy.

Resistance

Together they united in armed resistance against the Nazi occupation and the Fascist regime, making their struggle both a war of liberation and a civil war.

The annual event marks the day in 1945 when a nationwide radio broadcast calling for a popular uprising and general strike against the Nazi occupation and Fascist regime was announced by the National Liberation Committee of Upper Italy (CLNAI), a political umbrella organisation representing the Italian Resistance movement.

This announcement - made by partisan and future president of Italy Sandro Pertini - resulted in the capture and death of Fascist leader Benito Mussolini, who was shot three days later.

The Festa della Liberazione represents a significant turning point in Italy's history, paving the way for the referendum of 2 June 1946 when Italians voted in favour of a republic and against the monarchy which had been discredited during the war and whose members went into exile.

Scurati controversy

This year's event takes place against the backdrop of a political controversy after the state broadcaster RAI stopped a well-known Italian writer from delivering an anti-fascist monologue on television a few days before the Festa della Liberazione.

Antonio Scurati accused RAI of censorship after his monologue was dropped abruptly from the Saturday night talkshow Chesarà for "editorial reasons".

The writer claimed that the move highlighted the alleged attempts by premier Giorgia Meloni's right-wing government to exert its influence over the state broadcaster which has seen several veteran presenters leave over the last year including Fabio Fazio, Bianca Berlinguer and Amadeus.

 In his speech Scurati criticised the "ruling post-Fascist party" for wanting to "re-write history" rather than "repudiate its neo-fascist past".

RAI director Paolo Corsini rejected any talk of censorship, as did Meloni who responded to the controversy by posting Scurati's text on her Facebook page, stating that the broadcaster had "simply refused to pay 1800 euro (the monthly salary of many employees) for a minute of monologue".

Meloni added that the Italian people "can freely judge" the contents of the text which was later read live on air by Chesarà presenter Serena Bortone in an act of solidarity with Scurati.

"REVIEWS ARMY BUT IS ALL FOR PEACE," Kingston Whig-Standard. June 14, 1933. Page 1. ---- Mussolini looks like a stern soldier here, as he reviews troops in Rome. In regulation uniform, he takes seriously the job of responding to salutes of passing regiments. But in diplomatic negotiations, he's all for peace.

that one post I rb'd earlier about France and laicité and Macron celebrating Chanukah is still making me made just thinking about it. That came in the same week as Masha Gessen being almost stripped of the Hannah Arendt prize because they wrote an essay about Gaza (incidentally, Gessen is Jewish). I'm just really, massively tired of the current climate in Western Europe where political and civil authorities pay lip service to diversity and pluralism but actually actively suppress diverse voices. Case in point, lots of framing Judaism = Israel while actively making life harder for their Jewish communities.

I'm not eloquent enough to word this properly, but it's infuriating to witness. It's not a new attitude by any means, but it's rooted in racism and xenophobia and I hate that it's getting so much fresh mileage lately. I wish more people (& local press) called it out for what it is.

#As an Italian: I can't even begin to explain how shitty our current right-wing government is #They love to push on the `cultural wars` and `great replacement` angle #they rely on catholicism for electoral purposes + give no shits about the rampant antisemitism + the blatant fascism within their ranks #& are openly racist and Islamophobic #But they looove Netanyahu — as a fellow right-winger #& as a fellow racist fearmonger about scary Arabs #and they're the kind of conservative western christians #who love the idea of a Jewish state just so they can send all Jews there and keep Italy catholic #also thinking about Biden who just last week said #`Without Israel there wouldn’t be a Jew in the world who is safe` like he isn't the leader of a country with a significant Jewish populatio #whose saftey should maye be HIS concern? also like. Dual loyalty? In 2023? More likely than you think #I don't really have A point here I'm just blathering but that post made my fucking blood boil #it just shows how much western european gvts like to weaponise 'religious freedom' #picking and choosing what is the unremarkable default #and they're nearly always fucking racist about it #sorry if im not making sense lmao. i'm tired #current events #european blogging

Zerocalcare is what the world needs

I’m relatively new to Zerocalcare’s works. I watched Tear Along The Dotted Line and I was in love with that. Frankly, he’s an inspiration as an artist and activist, so I’ll be extra careful to not meet my hero.

This World Can’t Tear Me Down is even more ambitious than it’s predecessor, juggling social responsibilities with the simple fact that loved ones can disappoint us. With fascism lingering at every corner and immigrant rights still being infringed, this was a breath of fresh air, while being witty and soulful. And not only does it counter the aggressive rise in populism, it is also one of Netflix’s last hurrahs in the animation department.

Seriously, Netflix, get your shit together.

Both of his animated series touch upon a human element foremostly, that intimacy threatened by the world at large, which is also refreshing given moralistic cartoon critics that equally infest the internet. It truly shows the greyness of a situation while affirming that fascism has no excuse, and that balance is beyond savoury.

I recommend you inject yourself with these two series. You won’t be disappointed.
