As usual very boring 25 April the institutions do everything to affirm what was not (Mattarella even took pains to talk about “second Risorgimento”), a small minority tries in vain to remember the fallen of those who were defeated in the hope of not being criminalized, and in the middle there is a large portion of the Italian people of which, I don't give a damn about the so-called "liberation".. Obviously the small minority arouses indignation for a very banal ode to Mussolini, while if someone vandalizes a political party headquarters wishing death to its leader everything can be passed over in silence. And oh well, this is also the 25 April. Everything already written, since the existence of social media even more evident. Although my experience may not apply in general, I feel compelled to tell it. Years ago, when Facebook was still in its “embryonic” phase, there were countless posts and states exalted about "liberation" and the 25 April. Of people attacking me (sometimes even violently), even though I have zero social feedback compared to what I have now (which are not many but still sensitive). Public states, readable by everyone. During subsequent events, some of these states were copied from those of previous years, in some cases even on the message boards of some journalists moderately famous who I also met personally. For two or three seasons, however, the posts have disappeared completely: maybe someone will reappear as a polemical reaction to this provocative reflection of mine (admitted and not granted they will never read it), someone else will continue to remain in the sudden indifference in which the social demonstrations on the "partisan war" found themselves. Ora, I don't believe that expressing oneself on social media perfectly corresponds to the feelings of an individual, for goodness sake: but a series of individuals is already a completely different matter and is a decidedly more circumstantial element, which at least leads to reflection. Al 25 April, not even those who say they believe it believe it: some do, but this is a very small minority. To them I say what I have always said over the years: you can't force nature. This anniversary will die because it lacks spontaneous bases of support. It remains to be seen when it will happen, but he will die. So enjoy this little theater while you can. Obviously this doesn't change anything about the state of affairs, that is, on the untouchability of the "party" itself. A useless date that does not allow us to overcome fascism and anti-fascism and start again from the most important thing: Italy.
