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.
