Attempted murder or subhuman levels of negligence?
Of these facts there cannot be any shadow of doubt: for instance, that civil society was renovated in every part by Christian institutions; that in the strength of that renewal the human race was lifted up to better things-nay, that it was brought back from death to life, and to so excellent a life that nothing more perfect had been known before, or will come to be known in the ages that have yet to be. - Pope Leo XIII
Well that's government for you.

"We're nice mainly because we're rich and comfortable."
Indeed. Democracy is the worst.

It's not sensible to equate or akin democracy to demagoguery but each to its own I guess...

It's an interesting speech, though I wonder how much of it she actually believes. She appeals to traditional family values, even though she's living with a man she's not married to and her child was born out of wedlock. She promises to fight for the dignity of every human being, even while her party platform largely revolves around taking a hard-line stance against non-European immigrants. There's a disconnect here between her rhetorical embrace of traditionalism and Christianity and her rejection of what these things actually entail.
I'm also confused by her repeated references to "financial speculators" and their plot to enslave Italians. Maybe I'm ignorant of the Italian context, but I hope that's not a coded reference to some kind of anti-Semitic conspiracy theory.
Overall, her speech had some good lines but it was a tad too heavy on identity politics and anti-capitalist sentiment. I think she might do some good on the social policy front, but her stance on immigration and the economy leaves much to be desired.

I believe she commented on that exact criticism in the video.Originally Posted by Prodromos
Who knows. Not much to deduce from her speech on that particular point. It appears she’s since denied such associations and insisted FDI is a center right party.I'm also confused by her repeated references to "financial speculators" and their plot to enslave Italians.

Meh. It’s Europe. Fat chance of seeing a Reagan Republican lead a coalition, outside the UK. I’m mostly surprised to see someone on the right leading a European coalition government at all, given US Democrats tend to idolize the European system as a utopian ideal. It’s good to see at least some European countries begin to address terminal demographic decline as a serious issue. We’ll see if social interventions can make any difference.Overall, her speech had some good lines but it was a tad too heavy on identity politics and anti-capitalist sentiment.

Ah yes, who could forget that famous Bible quote "thou shalt import as many economic migrants as possible to keep value of labor down for our great corporate overlords"
If the first association with "financial speculators" in your head is "da joos", then I don't think its her who is anti-Semitic...I'm also confused by her repeated references to "financial speculators" and their plot to enslave Italians.

alhoon is not a member of the infamous Hoons: a (fictional) nazi-sympathizer KKK clan. Of course, no Hoon would openly admit affiliation to the uninitiated.
"Angry Uncle Gordon" describes me well.
