And finally the Palestine solidarity - the first one depicts Billy, Husky, and Ruphus bringing the 🇵🇸 flag to a local sanctuary in the middle of the night (ar: Free Palestine)
- the second is a quote by Darwish on a pic of our hometown's prison

Arguably one of the funniest, mocking Berlusconi's famous quote (Love always wins over hate and envy) and turning it into: "Beer always wins over salad and oil"
Very culture bound and hard to translate, but I still remember it very fondly.

This was the second most beloved and frequent slogan: "Since 1812 on the table of Italians"
Simple and surrealist, the idea is to reference typical food ads proudly boasting their foundation date. The year was randomly chosen and predates the existence of Italy by 48 years

This was the first - and one of the most recurring slogans: "When in doubt, get drunk and talk about revolution"
There's a cultural reason behind the insistence on alcohol consumption, but we'll get there another time...

My dad had first mentioned he read it in the eighties while recovering from hernia surgery - since he had to lay down for days on end. As for me, I saw the Bakshi adaptation as a child, and Fellowship in the theatre when it came out (at 10 y.o. in Italy)

I mean, what best way to gain their trust than to say "regardless of what your opinions are, I believe in these principles and I will fight so that they apply to you" (justice, safety, freedom, you name it)?
But then again even MLK warned against moderates...

So close, yet so far - if you're enabling fascists maybe you are *part of the problem* and not *the solution*. Just a thought, eh.

Maybe they could ask themselves where they went wrong. But that would imply they were fallible to begin with. Perish the thought, it must be everybody else that's stupid (though I do believe there's no shortage of them either)

And you know, liberals never held back the right - at best they allowed it. I would know, I come from the country that created fascism (unfortunately) and we're still taught history. Liberals didn't stop Mussolini then, haven't stopped Meloni now. I wonder why...

So your solidarity stops the moment someone makes a different choice than yours? I hope nobody ever needs your help - you'd probably wiggle your finger at them and say "I told you so"
If your solidarity is conditional, it was never solidarity to begin with

Yeah, a lot of liberals are saying stuff like "enjoy being deported" after wondering why minorities didn't vote for Harris - and they're the good guys eh. The day that liberalism disappears can't come fast enough, imo

Silly us who believed the woman who promised there would be no change in their foreign policy over Gaza - meanwhile the 13th November deadline has come and gone and no actions anywhere to be seen. I wonder why someone wouldn't believe them, really. Must be crazy trumpers!

But you can't make a government you are financing and sending weapons to lay the arms down. Interesting...if only they had some kind of leverage over Israel...
