re: #434 Obdicut

It’s never the wrong time to end the oppression of a people. It doesn’t cost anything to tell Italy to stop being assholes to the Roma, for example.

I get your point, and I actually think the people of Europe will remember the past and beat back the rising tide of fascist sentiment.

I hope so, anyway. They’ve shed enough blood in the past hundred years.

I think “a rising tide of fascist sentiment” in Europe is an exaggeration. Nobody stands Berlusconi, but the Charter of Fundamental rights hasn’t been violated yet to my knowledge in Italy. And the EU doesn’t exactly have the authority to just tell its member nations what to do in these cases…
