A clear, peremptory condemnation that does not allow for replies. A sidereal distance from a group of people who, evidently, still live in the past. An invention created ad hoc by the worst left of all time that, lacking arguments, has attacked (for the umpteenth time) the danger of a hypothetical return of fascism. Giovanni Donzelli, head of organization for Fratelli d’Italia, has put an end to the controversy regarding the commemoration of Franco Bigonzetti, Francesco Ciavatta and Stefano Recchioni, murdered on January 7, 1978 in front of the headquarters of the Italian Social Movement. «The machine gun that shot Acca Larentia was found years later in a Red Brigade hideout and it was recognized that it shot three people, including the former mayor of Florence Lando Conti. If in those years, instead of blaming surreal internal disputes between fascists, an investigation had been carried out, perhaps we would have spared Italy the dramatic murders of the Red Brigades. Let’s reflect on this before thinking about two hundred idiots who do the Roman salute, useful only for the left. I have not heard Schlein condemn Degni, whom the Democratic Party took to the Court of Auditors and who praised Toni Negri. “I’m waiting for Schlein to condemn those who defend Toni Negri, then we’ll talk about it.”

The nostalgics who met three days ago are partly nonconformists, others close to far-right groups attributable to Forza Nuova and Casapound. We must not forget that, in addition to the institutional demonstration, there was also a meeting of National Youth activists. And, as the Fanpage portal (normally not at all accommodating to the right) demonstrates, no extended arms were seen in Villa Glori. Not even as a joke. A distance that was also strongly highlighted by the president of the Senate, Ignazio La Russa, interviewed yesterday by Il Corriere della Sera. «The FdI has no relationship with the episode of the Roman greetings. “We have always told our people not to participate in certain demonstrations, which are inevitably taken advantage of by those who want to attack us.”

Those who know far-right circles know how nostalgic people, and not only now, are very critical of Giorgia Meloni for her unconditional support for Atlanticism, Israel and the United States. The attendance record at Acca Larenzia dates back to the Gentiloni government, the commemoration that has been repeated for 46 years and was also celebrated during the Covid emergency. In 2018 it was estimated that around 3,000 people attended, 2,000 last year, double the attendance recorded this year, around a thousand. However, the left’s outstretched protests have never been louder. It doesn’t take a genius to understand the obvious exploitation of the matter, aimed at trying to delegitimize the center-right executive. The opposition groups in the Chamber have requested urgent information from the Minister of the Interior, Matteo Piantedosi, who yesterday nipped the controversy in the bud. «The police headquarters will inform the judicial authority, which will do its part regarding the evaluation of the commission of the crimes. Prohibiting, not observing and not drawing consequences, has proven to be operationally less profitable.” Late in the afternoon came confirmation of the words of the head of the Ministry of the Interior. In fact, a first report from Digos was sent to the Prosecutor’s Office of Rome and there were already five people reported and dozens more identified as present in the initiative.
