Benetton Maletton

FIFTH COLUMN
Of Marcello Veneziani
The Benettons not only produced sweaters and managed highways but were the first local factory of global ideology. They were not only sponsors but also precursors of the ideological alphabet, symbolic and sentimental of the left. They were the bridge, it's worth saying, between the multinational interests of global capitalism and the Americanization of the planet, with their profits and their marketing and anti-racism messages, against sexism, in favor of society without borders, lgbt, transgressive and progressive. Their campaigns, entrusted to Oliviero Toscani, they tried to unite the shock side, which often bordered on bad taste and a punch in the stomach, with the progressive humanitarian message: multiracial society, without borders, without distinctions of sex, of religions, of ethnic groups and peoples, with special attention to minors. Remove barriers everywhere, except at toll booths, where it comes to taking tolls. Benetton recently also carried out humanitarian campaigns on immigrant boats and launched a video "against all resurgent racism". The connection between sermons on the skin of the desperate and selling sweaters or charging cars tolls is mysterious. Read More

Multicultural society is against the common good

Immigration subverts nations (and the Social Doctrine of the Church)
Of Stefano Fontana

(AUTOMATIC READING)

We have long observed a clear support from the ecclesiastical hierarchy and from a large part of the Catholic world (conciliate, n.d.r.) to the idea of ​​encouraging a reception of immigrants that is almost free of filters and rather broad and generalized. It should be noted, however, that this new attitude differs from what is traditionally proposed by the Social Doctrine of the Church, that is, a government of migration guided by the criterion of the common good. Consequence, Indeed, of this new attitude seems to be the replacement of the common good with the multi-religious society, seen as the goal of society. A welcome without filters and without the governance of the common good means that the resulting multi-religious society is good in itself., to the point that even Catholics should work for it rather than for the common good or for it as it coincides with the common good.
The question owes its interest to the fact that a new approach of this kind would entail a substantial revision of the Social Doctrine of the Church, its structure and foundations. I don't process intentions, and therefore I cannot say whether the purpose of this “opening” to the immigration phenomenon is precisely to change the Social Doctrine of the Church in some fundamental points, However, I cannot avoid an objective verification of this important question.
