    Fascist governments got to fascist.

    Targeting the LGBTQ+ population and eroding their rights and making it a focus during a time of an international cost of living crisis, is a tried and true practice of the right wing to hide their incompetence in governing and in matters of economy.

    I still can’t believe that Meloni got elected. Watching the far right rise all over Europe has been disturbing.

    It’s almost as if the stated goal of dividing the LGB and the TQ so that it’s easier to go after the LGBTQ is going off exactly like they planned… :/

    If they want the biological parents names, just do a DNA test on every baby. I am sure the upstanding straight citizens of Italy always know who the actual father is in every case and would be willing to submit that to public record.

    Here’s this thing that doesn’t affect me at all in any way but I kinda think is weird, so let me crush the spirit of a minority that already gets treated like shit?

    Man some people suck so much.

      It’s all political, for all their talk about the traditional family, Meloni had a child outside of marriage, and Salvini is divorced.

    As an Italian, it’s a cheap promise for politicians and it boosts consensus in a mainly conservative/catholic country. Removing minority rights doesn’t cost anything in terms of money expenditure, which (unfortunately) is the only thing Europe is concerned of about what our government does. They are now attacking “alias careers” in education, and more to come.

    I had such a raw disgust reading that headline. I wondered what fucking state would do that. Then I got to the end. So Italy is just speed running to open fascism. That sucks.

    Maybe I’m against the grain here but shouldn’t biological parents be on the birth certificate?

      Unfortunately, the places where you can go are an ever-decreasing list. Some Nordic countries, a few EU ones, that’s about it. Fascism is growing into a majority in literally the rest of the world.

        Fascism is not growing anywhere. But a lot of “lefties” behave like fascists for sure, so people turn away from anything that smells left.

        On the other hand, modern definition of left includes authorisation ideologies and regimes, so no wonder that happens.

          This comment is making it very hard to follow my personal lemmy rule which states that I should not just comment ‘you are a fucking idiot’.

          Edge of Europe bordering Africa and it’s aspiring immigrants. Italy is often the first stop for immigrant boats, and on-shoring desperate people. All a right wing government has to do is point to those people and say how they are going to destroy everything you know. Rinse repeat, voila fascism.

          You can deny it, but have you really thought about it.

          Think about American Politics. “Well conservatives are just fascists.” Sure, I mean there’s the party that wants to control what people say, Cancelling them if they ever said anything they don’t like. Want to remove all rights from people in specific parties, and mandate how others act at all times… and then there’s the republicans which are also clearly fascists.

          I’m not trying to say “Republicans are better than Democrats” they’re not, they’re clearly not. But Democrats aren’t that good either. It’s a problem with a desire to control others and when one party wins, they should feel they have a mandate to GOVERN but instead there’s a feeling they have a mandate to RULE or CONTROL. Luckily most politicians are somewhat sane about this, but god damn, some of the die hards on both sides have lost their mind.

          Power corrupts, and Absolute Power corrupts absolutely. That’s kind of a fact of being human.

    Sounds like it’s the law that’s wrong, and the office and court are doing their jobs. This is on the lawmakers, and these guys aren’t supposed to make their own laws.
