Italian cops are fucking BRUTAL when they get a chance to beat up lefties, so yeah.

I've met people who were there, and the screams of people getting beaten and tortured still haunts them.
Italians are fascists.
They're violently oppressive authoritarians.
Little overly general there.
Yeah, should have said "the Italian government and cops are a bunch of fascists". That would have been accurate.
Guess what? The electorate allows it. Encourages it, even.
Yeah, lots of gaslighting and demagoguery went into it, just like with Mussolini a hundred ears ago and Trump in 16. People didn't just decide in a vacuum that fascism is the way to go.
The government is fascist, the electorate is just dumb. Doesn’t help that we have nearly 40% abstention rate, last election the people who didn’t vote were more than the votes for the winning coalition.
Genova g8 summit will probably make it to history books in the future as a key event.

There are many shady behind the scenes
Edit: english wikipedia page doesn't give it much justice, italian pages have way more informations
I can't believe that two people got fucking murdered because of this summit
Violence against fascism is always justified tho. And not only justified, it's necessary and demanded for a good society.
Not sure if these fellas were left enough to be fascists but most likely yes.
Not sure if you're a troll or just uninformed, but fascists are right-wing. Don't let the "socialist" in Nazi fool you. It is a trick to get leftists to vote for them.
You're the perfect example of what American political education does to a MF. Get lost fascist.
