    It is, but to be fair Italy was very advanced when it comes to labour rights and such, but TBF it was also victim of great external pressures to regress. CIA spent a lot of money, even sponsoring terrorists attacks and failed fascist coups, to move Italy back to fascist, because at some point it had the biggest communist party in Europe and extremely strong social democratic parties.

      I really don’t get the direction of the country tbh. Italy was known world wide for quality engineering in almost every area but for some reason they just ignore digital market. It’s almost like the country has stopped for whatever reason.

        Berlusconi happened… Berlusconi is the tip of a reactionary cultural iceberg that completely ruined the country, but he is the perfect summary of everything that went wrong
