Italy’s government has profoundly undermined the rule of law with changes to the judiciary and showed “heavy intolerance to media criticism”, in an emblematic example of Europe’s deepening “democratic recession”, a coalition of civil liberties groups has said.
A report by the Civil Liberties Union for Europe (Liberties) said Italy was one of five “dismantlers” – along with Bulgaria, Croatia, Romania and Slovakia – that “intentionally undermine the rule of law in nearly all aspects”.
In Hungary, long classified as an “electoral autocracy”, researchers detected “significant regression” in the rule of law in 2024. Pressure on non-governmental groups and media intensified after the launch of Hungary’s sovereignty protection office, which has broad powers to investigate Hungarians active in public life.
The Italian government’s undemocratic decisions have effect only in Italy, fortunately, and nobody in Europe has ever cared about what happens to Italian citizens (since they are not even consider properly civilized people). So the rest of EU is safe, this is just a click bait title.
Because when have internal italian politics ever had repercussions for the rest of Europe. Please, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, even if he is loudly blasting Wagner while capering maniacally…
…who doesn’t consider Italians properly civilized people?
It’s not like they’ll start a world war if they are isolated🤣🤣🤣
May I ask which time period are you speaking about ? Is it current ongoing , or some 20 30 back or a around 100 years back ?
You must ❤️❤️ the downvotes
Who cares about downvotes. You can downvote me too. Go ahead. :)
Whats important is to say your opinion, even when others dont agree. They dont give rewards for disagreeing though.
Disagreeing/questioning/skepticism != spewing absolute, manifest nonsense.
The dividing line is whether it appears to be done in good faith, given the context. This does not pass that test.
