Fascism and pensions for Italians. The historical truth is stronger than Aldo Grasso's hoaxes
Source: century of Italy
On the front page of Corriere della Sera of 7/11/2018 Aldo Grasso refutes the "hoax" (according to him) of the pensions introduced by fascism in Italy, explaining to readers that INPS is not among the "positive things" that the Mussolini regime introduced, as some repeat without properly documenting themselves. And he writes that INPS was born in 1898, while the social pension only arrives in 1969, when fascism had long since fallen. An incorrect reconstruction, points out the journalist and writer Gianni Scipione Rossi: “Aldo Grasso – writes Rossi in a note on Facebook – forgets the substantial difference between voluntary pension insurance for workers and employees, born in Italy in 1898, and the mandatory one, born in 1919, therefore before the Mussolini government".

The ultimate destruction of a culture and its results
by

Of Maurizio Blondet

THE ULTIMATE DESTRUCTION OF A CULTURE, AND HIS RESULTS.

While on Rai 3 they say that "in Italy there is fascism" as in '22, “The Purge” has begun in France. Hordes of masked young people, on Halloween night, they staged huge riots in half a dozen cities, destructions: looted shops, burned the garbage bins, smashed windows, destroyed city buses. In Paris, two individuals, one of whom wore a pig's head as a mask, they beat up a passerby and robbed him of his Rolex. Dozens of vehicles set on fire. They attacked the police at

Non-existent fascism will bury you
by

Non-existent fascism will bury you
Source: Bye Bye Uncle Sam
Let's start from the belief that the truth is in everything, as Hegel teaches, therefore also in its necessary internal contradictions.
Anti-fascism, as well as neo-fascism, ignores all of this, transforming fascism into an archetype that is what others have decided for him. A single evaluation is necessary, certainly not for a rehabilitation intention, but only to have an extra weapon for a correct interpretation, not from the past, but of the present that, this being the case, he weighs much more because he is drugged.
For this reason, the meaning of the term fascism as evoked by anti-fascists is particularly illuminating.
Its use is independent of historical evaluation, as well as from a political or philosophical one, its use is not even that of a simple denigrating adjective, but it is an investment to always guarantee the right to existence and reason. It even ignores space-time, even from a Manichean perspective, as if fascism, as Absolute Evil, had always existed. A cesspool in any case to be contrasted with one's own self-referentiality. In his presence, everything seems to vanish, from colonialism, to the slave trade, to the extermination of the American Indians, to the genocide of Tasmanians, even exploitation seems so bearable in the face of fascism, Ricardo's "bronze law of wages" ends up coinciding with a platform for contractual renewal.
Anti-fascism becomes the good dress that gives super powers, a means to become a champion. Already out of class, anti-fascism is so powerful that not only Giovanni Gentile is disappearing, but also Karl Marx and Antonio Gramsci.
The gravity of such a liturgical investiture lies entirely in the inauthenticity of anti-fascism. Read More

Catholics between Europeanism and Populism

And then, Which side are the Catholics on??
by

REVIEW OF THE BOOK BY MATTEO CASTAGNA
Of Mattia Rossi per The newspaper OFF of The newspaper
It caused a sensation, some time ago, the cover of Christian family against the Minister of the Interior Matteo Salvini («Go behind Salvini», it stood out on the cover under the photograph of the Northern League leader). Shortly after, but, the newspaper poll Libero: 85% of Catholics would be in favor of the Minister's policies
And then, which side are they on? (or they have to stay) the Catholics? With what, commonly, is defined as populism or with the pro-European globalism? And southern fascism? Where to position yourself for those who profess to be Catholic? But then, as Catholics? Those of the modernist official hierarchies or those "integral" and faithful to the Catholic Magisterium of all time?
He tries to give the answers Matthew Castagna, journalist and militant Catholic (responsible for the Sedevacantist-oriented “Christus Rex – Traditio” club) in his Catholics between Europeanism and populism. The challenge to nihilism (Solfanelli, pages. 248, euro 17) recently in the bookstore.
Ascertained immediately, from Castagna, that «a “progressive Catholicism” cannot exist» and that «the only possible Catholicism is the “integral” one», There are numerous doctrines that the Veronese journalist reviews (Savonarolism, counter-reformism, the second Francoism, the neo-Lutheranism of Nazism) and then move to the Catholic side in the chapter Integral Catholics, Jesuits, modernist, clerical-fascists.
Catholic integralism, explains Castagna, «perceives in white-Jesuit internationalism, Christian Democrat-Modernist is the political and theological instrument through which the greatest attack is manifesting itself, never conceived, to Christianity". It follows that, according to the author, «the fundamental danger of the Jesuit-modernist union would be represented, per mons. Benign, from the end of the social disintegration of the Western Constantinian and Gregorian Tradition; from absolute and dogmatic anti-fascism; from left-wing Christian Democrats; from fanatical and relativistic technical-pragmatic and politicistic anthropocentrism; from the rejection of the XXIV theses of Thomism; all of this, if achieved with the victory of international anti-fascism, it would have led to neo-modernist nihilism and secularization”.

If even the left realizes it: “The people turn against the elites”

If even the left realizes it: “The people turn against the elites”
Source: The eyes of war
It is easy to say that populism is absolute evil. A sort of fascism of the new millennium to be eradicated. Right, in today's populist movements there are hints of extremism, sometimes even racism. But you cannot understand how these movements are succeeding around the world without understanding their causes. The deepest ones and those that have created discontent among the people who then go to the polls and decide who to reward (to punish).
In an interview with Il Manifesto, the well-known activist Noam Chomsky had his say, sparing no one, especially the American left: “In the USA many workers voted for Obama, believing in its message of hope and change, and when they were quickly disillusioned, they looked for something else. This is fertile ground for demagogues like Trump, what an end to being the voice of workers while undermining them time after time through his administration's anti-union policies, who represents the wildest wing of the Republican Party”. Here Chomsky is right about the first part, but wrong on the second, given that under Trump the lowest unemployment rate has been recorded since 2000. Read More

Anti-fascism and eco-monsters: who was Riccardo Morandi, the designer of the Genoa bridge
by

Image results for richard morandiOf Nicola Mattei
Genova, 15 ago – What unites the Corviale snake in Rome, an attempt that started badly and ended worse to build a public housing "barracks" in Soviet style bridge over the Polcevera collapsed yesterday? A name, that of engineer Riccardo Morandi.
Born in Rome in 1902, he began his activity in the 1930s by experimenting - among the first in Italy - with the use of reinforced concrete and pre-stressed reinforced concrete. At the beginning of his career he designed churches and cinemas, and then specialized in the construction of bridges.
The skills in the field of reinforced concrete they are worth the call to the team that will design and build the Corviale, where Morandi will work alongside the architect Mario Fiorentino. The result is dramatic: almost a kilometre (e 11 floors in height) of a real city dormitory on the outskirts of the capital where the building boom of those years created eco-monsters destined to last and produce devastating effects. Applied social engineering will result in failure, managing to replicate for the worse all the distortions imported from the total and totalitarian planning that was experimented in the same period in the Soviet Union.
An ideological aspect, the latter, which cannot be overlooked. We are in the Italy of the conflict (also armed), in which remaining helpless in the face of political opposition is almost impossible. E Morandi had made his choice: “His family – writes Repubblica on the occasion of his death, er he 25 December of 1989 – they remember him as a man who always made a point of defending his independence from all powers, starting with the fascist one of which he was an opponent".

The anti-corporal law? Fascism did it in 1926. And Badoglio abolished it

The anti-corporal law? Fascism did it in 1926. And Badoglio abolished itOf Antonio Pannullo

Il "corporal" he is the figure of an illegal intermediary between landowners and unskilled labor. It is a plague that has always been present, and in Italy it has joined forces with organized crime, especially in the centre-south. The word "caporalato" has returned to the spotlight in recent days due to the incidents involving foreign seasonal workers in Puglia, ma è un male antico, a “liberal” evil. In the 2016 the Chamber approved the so-called anti-corporal law, which however evidently had no effect on the phenomenon, probably due to poor controls by the authorities. The magazine and blog Colonial Italy but, directed by Alberto Alpozzi, reminds us that the gangmaster was fought and defeated, like the rest of the mafia, from fascism, that in 1926 I passed the law 563, called "union law", perfected and modified until 1938 with other rules aimed at “balance the interests of employers with those of workers in an equitable manner by protecting, in any case, the superior interests of production". Colonial Italy, in the piece by Maria Giovanna Depalma, also remember that these revolutionary regulations, included in the fascist corporate and labor code, they were valid not only in Italy but also in the colonies, which contributed to abolishing slavery and serfdom in Italian Africa, flourishing until the conquest of East Africa by Italy.

Chico, where there is an idiot (who sees “bundles” everywhere)

Chico, where there is an idiot (who sees “bundles” everywhere)Calling the pro-child advert of the baby products company "fascist" shows that the sense of limits has been lost. And about being parents
Proof of how much advertising is the true Collective Intellectual of the consumer society, lo Chicco television commercial which invites us to do so by taking advantage of the absence of the Azzurri at the World Cup, returning to give birth with gusto in an Italy that procreates little, has sparked outrage on the perpetually menstruating web, as if it were an institutional message promoted by the new populist and sovereignist government. "Alarms, they are fascists": even the copywriters of the pram and baby articles company? Yes, according to those who spilled the beans on social networks, which then are i beam-all-seeing, those who he sees people bandage everywhere – next time, what do we know, it could happen to Nutella (too dark, almost black), or to agricultural trade associations that invite you to buy Italian (autarky, autarky!) or to anyone who should ever recall in non-defamatory terms works such as the reclamation of the Agro Pontino (oh no, Antonio Pennacchi has already done it, hard and pure communist, with its – beautiful – “Mussolini Canal”).
