When in the space of a few hours you find yourself with the “right to elegance” which becomes an indictment and with a tariff where the needs of poor people are quoted at 50 euros, perhaps the Italian left should do a major examination of conscience and involve all that radical chic world (including journalists) who reduced her to a ghost. The wife of Soumahoro, the trade unionist who entered with the boots of the fight once morest gangmastering and in defense of exploited migrants, finds herself on trial together with her mother and brothers for various crimes ranging from bankruptcy to fraud, up to self-laundering, in the scope of the investigation into the management of public funds provided by the Karibu coop and the Aid consortium. In short, money generated by reception policies, the workhorse of those who – to use the expressions of the center-left parties and their refined pens – have heart, humanity, a sense of others. A few journalistic checks would have been enough to better focus on the issue, but the Propaganda of Damilano, Zoro, Repubblica, Boldrini and company had to run: the humanity of Soumahoro once morest the rudeness of Salvini, the democrats once morest the fascists.
Orban’s friends who humiliate Ilaria Salis, the last “figurine” of the anti-fascist Piddino nativity scene. With all due respect to the many Italians abroad detained in terrible conditions or the thousands of innocent people slapped in prison with defamatory and dancing accusations. The fascists, the magic word revived to gather votes, sell copies and keep various associations alive with contributions and five per thousand. A perfect network for the use and consumption of the true electorate of the Democratic Party and the left: bourgeoisie and noble souls with a wallet that is opened for donations of good will. They are in the center and “the others” in the invisible suburbs where immigrants and the poor fight for public housing or for a place in nursery schools or primary schools.
Then, in Bari, the masterpiece, which they persist in not wanting to see despite the full involvement – according to the prosecutor’s accusations – of important managers and organizational pieces. The fault lies with the “newspapers and TV channels close to the government” who exaggerated what happened; or is it Conte’s fault who finally returns to throw the moral question in the Democratic Party’s face, using words that the Movement said when Gianroberto Casaleggio was in charge of its political direction and Grillo listened to him.
Conte realigns “his” Movement (for political tactics, for goodness’ sake, but he is doing it) with that Movement that shook Italian voters so much as to reach thirty-odd percent. «Conte is helping the right», thunders Schlein, placing the emphasis on the «right» mentioned above. Instead, they are the Martians, who have landed where poverty and need are paid for with 50 euros, meal vouchers, gas cylinders and some promises of employment. Bari, we were saying. Puglia. The El Dorado of the Democratic Party and the Center Left: first with Vendola then with Emiliano and now with Decaro, the most loved mayor in Italy before the investigations broke the spell and brought to light the political collapse. Because this is the real point: before the investigations there is the social failure of a left that has forgotten the most needy, the workers, the marginalized, that is, its historically most identifiable electorate; and that to hang it up he would even need to buy it.
But the betrayal has already happened before. What is the left, what is the Democratic Party? It is the voice of the market and of the neoliberal reforms implanted with their own or technical pro-European governments (which they have never shied away from even once!): they are the ones who have cut more than others the voices of health, school, welfare, «because the Europe asks us for rigor.” It is the left that “pierced” the Workers’ Statute for the first time with Tiziano Treu up to the Jobs Act of Renzi, secretary of the Democratic Party. And it is always the Democratic Party (before PDS and DS) that has favored generous entries of foreigners into Italy, from Livia Turco to Boldrini. And finally it is the Democratic Party which, following having sold off solid rights, has taken the line of new liquid rights (from the epic battles of LGBTQ+ to queer families) or green rights, the cost of which will be unsustainable precisely for those struggling with budgets increasingly thinner family members. Before the investigations, the failure of the left is political and happens precisely in the time of the greatest social injustices caused by that god of the market to which the Democratic Party and its surroundings have sacrificed their history.
