No, the real funny part about M5S is that they promised a "citizenship income" (a glorified unemployment check, modelled after the German system) and immediately after their "victory" (technically, they didn't win - the Lega-Forza Italia coalition won - although they are the single biggest party), some of their voters turned up at tax assistance centers demanding the forms to request it. They didn't take a "no" for an answer either, as many said that they'd escalate to city hall. How do you even begin to reach people so utterly naive and ignorant? Promise them to build a wall around africa

Please tell me you're not really that naive        They must have hired a new PR firm a few years ago, because the more recent posters are mostly text and not as "innocently" racist Kurtofan posted:what, this election?

The candidates create a new reality with their promises, and to some it's not a vote for a new government, they're like, voting for a waveform collapse. They wouldn't have voted if they didn't already picture themselves beyond the veil, already living in the utopia. Some can see the trick (and still buy into it, because after months, years of campaigning, the climax is all the sweeter), and some don't hackbunny has issued a correction as of 15:16 on Mar 9, 2018 |

MrWilderheap posted:goddamn those posters They're (relatively) old. Back then, the League was a smaller party - 1.39 votes in the 2013 elections - and it was still controlled by the old guard (Bossi and Maroni). This year, after 5 years of Salvini leadership, they were up to 5.69 million votes, the biggest they've ever been. You can see that the messaging has changed under Salvini, it's more professional, less naive (Bossi was a brutish oaf with a gravelly voice and bad grammar shouting things like "Leaguers have a rock hard [cock]" - complete with obscene gesture - without a hint of irony). The party has also moved further to the right: like, while Bossi was insulted at being compared with Le Pen [he had also called Berlusconi drug-addled and thieving and swore he would never ally with him - months before doing so], Salvini is her Italian ally

It's a mystery. They were posted anonymously and the party distanced themselves from the campaign. I honestly can't tell if it's sincere (and possibly schizophrenic) or shitposting

get that OUT of my face posted:it doesn't make a single bit of sense. what is a poster of a german boy loving an albanian boy (with a horribly photoshopped face to boot) in front of a bunch of chinese children trying to say from an italian politics standpoint? the only thing i can think of is that it's a troll there is a fear among conservative people here (south/southeast europe) that kindergarten/elementary school children are being taught how to have gay sex or whatever so this is a reference to that plus racism (a class full of chinese kids!) and anti-EU feeling (germany and merkel are usually stand-ins for the whole thing) all mixed up into one
