Offtopic but gotta be said.
pls don't
I'm sorry. It's a bit awkward seing that pic paraded on a profile, of the dude that expelled half my family from italy and sent the other half to die on camps.
You see, there is no pic of Stalin on my profile, is there? And socialism didn't kill anyone in the country I live in right now, did it kill in yours? If it did, I would understand you demanding the romoval of the correlated totalitarian militaristic leader from the forums.
Go on, have this fine leader on your profile just to irritate the lefties. Doesn't really matter who he is, does it? Or what he did?
Respect. Simple as that.
Are you taking the mick?! So, are we supposed to appease the politically correct sissies, once again offended because someone else likes a god damn picture of Mussolini on a game forum?
Shall we ban any avatar portraying Caesar, Hannibal, Genghis Khan and Tamerlane as avatars? They could be considered as "mass murderers" as well. Actually should we forbid any mod including any of those leaders?
Funnily enough, Mussolini was heavily influenced by your beloved socialism. Heck, it's even on all his given names - BENITO(Juárez) ANDREA(Costa) AMILCARE(Cipriani), famous left-wings. Despite being a dictator, he proved to be a decent administrator, he improved Italy's industry with the help of De Stefani, built a lot of infrastructure and got the country out of the doldrums after WW I.
And what do you mean by "socialism didn't kill anyone" ? It was precisely the same ideology of the paramilitary organisation - Red Brigade - responsible for the kidnapping and killing of Aldo Moro, prime minister of the country you claim to descend from. And even in your country...what about those who died on the 1935 "Intentona Comunista" uprising?
Disclaimer: I'm 100% apolitical and I do not support or condone Mussolini.
Another conspirationist that claims fascism is a leftist political movement? Nice.
Oh, great. Mussolini made Italy's industry "great again". That's a fine argument. That is also the same defence you have for Hitler or King Leopold I guess. There is no such a thing as apolitical, the very argument you just made reveals your political beliefs. It's quite hipocritical to say you are, specailly in a political debate... if you took part on it, you have a view on the spectrum.
And I'm not Italian, i'm brazilian. Born here from italian holocaust survivers. No socialist kills here, quite the oposite. What about you?
On another note: I know I'm feeding trolls. Yes, you gotta be a c*** to put Mussolini's face on your profile just to irritate people, it's the very definition of being a troll. But it's quite hard to let this type of thing go.
