No, we are not France. That’s why Italy doesn’t burn too

A country in decline for decades, in a demographic crisis and with young people without prospects. But here, apart from the lesser immigration, the idea of ​​”assimilating” anyone has never existed. What is in force, in the suburbs and beyond, is anarchism and familism. Between territories that get by, wealth in black and a cynicism that prevents revolutions

Needless to say there is Conte who shoots it big, “we have a government that is consciously planning a social fire”. And between the minimum wage and cities that really burn, between “social Darwinism” and gendarmes who really shoot, seventeen is seventeen, in a demagogic version of the retaliation, everything is broth to cook the idea that Italy doesn’t have too many reasons not to be France. Luckily we can’t afford Mélenchon, he really hopes in the fire, we have to keep Conte. But the question is: why not here?
