the video gives chills...

however, as usual, let's make an effort to have discussions :-) and therefore to introduce them, to direct them... to start them!

But I did it just for a laugh, knowing however that if the hopes of some of these people are placed in nothingness—because for me promises (no matter who makes them, especially

in a political context) only last as long as they are useful—we are facing (for decades, or rather I would even say for almost a century since there are still people who long for Mussolini)
a flattening

of their own critical potential, becoming almost a commodity in certain cases, because the reverence expressed by many people logically (according to their way of “reasoning”)

derives into vote-buying, especially indirect, and this way of acting expands to every daily gesture.

There is something I didn't specify in the video description (which I didn't actually write): the lady who appears in the presentation frame of it is the only one (in the videos I used)

who speaks clearly without using incomprehensible dialects for which translation is necessary; and I don't want to say that these people lack brains, no, but (for me) they don't

use them in the right way; they believe in fairy tales, live in another dimension, they don't realize at all that everything offered to them is a scam, because we know that if there is one person who

tries to truly act in everyone's interest, for another 1000 it is not so.

I don't want to necessarily think of evil, but how can I not?

Obviously these are "their" ideas, "convictions," terms I put in quotes because I doubt they have the necessary critical sense to establish what is and what is not a power game,

an illusion, a mockery.

In another video, a young woman (and these are the most serious cases for me) at first glance answered a journalist asking her why she had presented herself there, that the main reason (she immediately corrected herself specifying it was "one of the reasons")

for which she would vote for whom we know is for the "promise regarding the IMU refund," a promise for which it seems that

diverse people have gone to CAF offices in Genoa to ask for the refund.

So if this is not vote-buying, but even worse (on the part of the people who consent to this), a "selling oneself" for one's own gain, there is no way out.

On Facebook I posted this question: "how many of the people who voted for the Five Star Movement did not do so because they truly feel (even from before the movement

started its political 'career') that there is a need for a clean, regular, respectful attitude, and instead 'chose' this option because they were 'disappointed' by the municipal,

provincial, or regional representative of the other party who didn't get their children into 'that company,' or the entrepreneur didn't win a contract?" I am certain that

of that approximately 25%, at least 7/8% is composed of "disappointed" people, who at the first creak of the movement automatically switch to whoever they like at that moment.

That being said, seeing people nullify themselves in this way for (anyone specific, it could be anyone; I want to specify this because I have no sympathies or real belief

in anyone, I would just like things to be done right for everyone; once someone even told me "ah you are precise, then you are a real fascist," obviously taken aback,

i replied "what are you talking about?" One cannot have ideas (not necessarily innovative ones) and not necessarily be reducible or linkable to a certain party, movement,

or ideology, can one?

Hi, I don't know if this forum is the right place to talk about politics. We shouldn't complain that Italy is collapsing when these kinds of heads go to vote. These are mentally deranged people who succumb to the mass of false information they receive from television media. I know a friend who worked for years in a television station and he told me that there are psychological studies that deal with finding media methods to provide information that our brain recognizes as more important than others. A kind of subliminal messaging. Things cannot continue this way. "San Silvio," come on!! There are things so obvious that even a blind person could see them. Read about ad personam laws, his lawyer becoming his Member of Parliament: surely at least now from the inside it is easier to understand which law to have made to continue not being prosecuted! He has accumulated embarrassing blunders in the European Parliament like a collection of stickers in old Panini albums. But what kind of image is this for this country? Yet he continues to get votes. Italy perhaps deserves the end it is facing, with "Silviuccio."

This is the section for free thoughts and words. Without slaughtering each other, everything would be allowed, within legal limits obviously. It seems to me that I am reading opinions, and in Italy everyone has the right to express their own thoughts. Therefore, I don't see the problem...

when I saw the crowd running in a hall like an internal revenue agency, I thought it was a riot for the refund of the Imu with Berlusconi's letter in hand... then I understood... the scene of the avalanche of boxes was shocking... hallucinogenic...

p.s. oh, but you put Bach everywhere...

Bach reigns uncontested, then one needed a piece that (for those who don't know it) would make one think of something ironic but secretly serious.

Very beautiful editing, Piccinesco!

Thanks, I could have done better (by the way, moviemaker literally abandoned me, I am preparing another video, but I will try to use another software,

provided these others don't cause problems either).

Damn it, I hadn't thought about this software again, yet I had used it a few years ago; let's see, I prepared another video and moviemaker has

started up again, and above all, more precise interventions cannot be made.
