A-Infos (en) Italy, UCADI, #209 - Trump and Meloni are fighting over each other (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Trump accused Meloni over the phone of begging for a photo with him at 
the G7 summit in Évian-les-Bains, but Meloni denied it. Although Trump 
is a serial liar, this time we have to believe him, mindful of Giorgia 
Meloni's habit of acting like an unrepentant vain woman, desperate to 
appear at every international meeting she attends . The blond, pig-eyed 
beauty, usually dressed in white (or even baby-pink), wandered around 
the room hosting the event, hunting for a sofa on which to curl up next 
to her beloved President, her boss, as footage of the event shows. This 
was to demonstrate the persistence of so-called privileged relations 
with Him.
Except that the man is bizarre and undiplomatic, resentful, and at the 
first opportunity he took advantage of it to declare that he had taken 
pity, that the penitent had made him feel sorry for her with her nagging 
insistence, and that he had therefore benevolently given in, but that 
this did not mean he had forgiven her, because the boss does not forgive 
traitors. A true boss demands total obedience from his servants and 
tolerates no hesitation, accepts no refusals.
When the vaporous blonde's piqued response, who flatly denied 
everything, was met with a stern reply, the octogenarian golfer with the 
ginger hair doubled the heat, promising fire and brimstone and 
denouncing the attempt to manipulate him into gaining public support by 
the petulant, unwanted fan, who in turn advised him to worry more about 
his downhill popularity.
It seems the ultimate outcome of all this must be retaliation from 
Trump, resulting in the withdrawal, in whole or in part, of the United 
States from its bases in our country. Needless to say, if this were to 
happen, it would be the most significant achievement of the Meloni 
government in its entire term, and would alone represent the 
government's greatest success in the past four years, far greater than 
anything any other government has done for the country. We should even 
conclude that it was worth seeing pension cuts, keeping wages low, 
witnessing the systematic destruction of the national health service, 
helplessly enduring the country's deindustrialization, succumbing to the 
parceling out of public office, enduring the resurgence of fascist 
tendencies, accepting the vile and despicable treatment of migrants, 
swallowing the security decrees, and everything else the Meloni 
government has dished out to us in its four years of office. After all, 
there is a price for everything, and the importance of the result is 
proportional to the sacrifice required to achieve the goal. This, and 
not stability, would be the most important objective achieved by the 
Meloni government.

In praise of instability

Yes, the stability Meloni boasts about is absolutely not to be 
considered a positive value, given that it generally does not correspond 
to the country's growth. Only thanks to lively political debate, the 
country shows its ability to grow economically and socially. Proof of 
this is that the greatest achievements in the protection of labor, 
social rights, and freedoms, and even the greatest economic development, 
occurred during periods of great instability, but characterized by 
strong political and moral tension between the various political and 
social forces that sought to address society's most pressing problems 
and sought to resolve them through political debate and institutional 
action. This was the case with the introduction of divorce and abortion, 
the adoption of the Workers' Statute, the reform of family law, and the 
establishment of the national healthcare system. The debate on 
euthanasia, which, precisely because of the collapse of social debate 
and political debate and the resulting stability, failed to find a 
positive outcome,
could also be said for the introduction of the minimum wage and many 
other necessary reforms. In other words, stability does not benefit the 
Republic, because it annihilates political debate and social 
interaction, stifles popular participation, hinders mobilization and the 
fight to defend one's rights, and stifles the country's aspirations for 
growth and improvement. Democracy thrives on participation, and Meloni, 
being profoundly antidemocratic by nature, does not want popular 
participation, but seeks only applause, consensus, and the cheers of the 
crowd, so much so that she seeks easy applause at Alpine rallies, 
saluting one another with love of country.

The problems of the real country

The gravity of the economic and social situation is clear for all to 
see. The country's deindustrialization is proceeding at a rapid pace, as 
is the sale of production assets to international operators and 
delocalization. This is without the current government being able to 
implement even a minimal plan to address the challenges the country will 
face in the future. We are referring to the increasingly widespread 
introduction of artificial intelligence, which will profoundly alter the 
labor market and remove millions of jobs from the workforce. The labor 
market will be profoundly disrupted, and a reduction in employment at 
technical and skilled levels will likely correspond to an increased 
demand for low-skilled, low-wage labor, typical of the industrial 
reserve army, which includes migrants, especially those who are kept as 
such and not integrated by the structural legislative framework 
regarding the granting of residence permits and job stability in our 
country. This facilitates recourse to the informal, precarious, and 
unemployed labor market.
This transformation of the labor market is occurring under even more 
serious conditions, given that our legal system lacks a minimum wage 
that would provide a threshold for the exploitation of labor from any 
source. The impoverishment of the labor market leads to a decline in 
wages and thus to the decline of pension provisions, with the likely 
crisis of public and reliable pension provision. This push for the use 
of private insurance leads to the destruction of savings and their 
channeling into investment funds, especially speculative ones.
The demographic crisis is exacerbated by the decline in social 
protections, reflected in low birth rates, especially given the impact 
on living standards and well-being of increasingly dilapidated 
transportation systems, the shortage of affordable housing, and a 
declining public social and healthcare system, which is increasingly in 
favor of private care. The transformation process of our society is 
proceeding uncontrolled and undirected due to the lack of a governance 
structure capable not only of managing the change but also of directing 
and planning investments in a direction consistent with a framework of 
objectives to be pursued over time.

A vision for the future

What the left, aspiring to govern and preparing for the next election, 
lacks is a vision of the future, a project capable of uniting social 
classes and groups around a goal based on a plan that leaves no one 
behind and reduces wealth disparities, bringing social classes closer 
together and rebuilding a middle class large enough to serve as a point 
of reference and alliance for an increasingly disunited and scattered 
army of workers, lacking direction, rights, and common goals to guide 
and govern society. Without this foundation, left-wing parties, or 
so-called progressive parties, have little hope of rebuilding an 
electorate that will direct support toward them, given their interest in 
seeing themselves protected and governed in the name of a shared goal of 
collective well-being.
A particular obstacle is the warmongering approach of progressive and 
left-wing parties, which have accepted and internalized the choice of 
war and the inevitable confrontation toward which to direct productive 
development: the rearmament of Europe, with the expectation that only by 
fighting Russia can it destroy its unity and drain its resources, 
negotiating individually with the myriad of small states that would 
replace it and rise on its ruins. For these parties, the colonial 
draining of their economic resources represents the salvation of the 
West, which would thus appropriate the resources of others to finance 
their well-being. This is a criminal, short-sighted choice that ignores 
the fact that the adversary they have chosen to fight possesses an 
arsenal of 6,500 nuclear warheads with which it can annihilate the 
European populations at any time, and that on the ethical, moral, and 
value levels, it possesses a set of strong guiding principles that 
afford it a resilience far greater than any aggressive force, perfectly 
capable of repelling any attack until the adversary's total annihilation.
Western Europe's wallowing in hedonism has not been a good choice in the 
face of an increasingly competitive world, given the disappearance of 
the historically dominant rents that Europe could once have leveraged to 
sustain its prosperity. The end of colonialism, the growth of the world 
outside the G7 and G8, the very birth of the BRICS, the return of China, 
India, and numerous other imperial groups to their role as major 
economic, social, and military powers, constitute factors that must be 
taken into account in building a future for Europe and, within it, for 
Italy.
Meloni-style (fake) nationalisms, populisms and national egoisms, the 
appeal to the glories of the past and the dreams of great power that 
belonged to fascism and beyond, no longer have any place or meaning in 
the current economic and political balance of the world and require the 
international right, beyond its regurgitations of impossible returns, to 
reflect deeply on when the world changed, just as they require the 
forces of the left to carefully reflect on the return of class interests 
at the global level.
