Meloni heads Italy’s most rightwing government since the second world war. Italy’s criminal code punishes with a fine ranging from €1,000 to €5,000 anyone who “publicly defames the republic”, which includes the government, parliament, the courts and the army.

You gotta understand them, it would be tedious to run a fascist racist government if you had to compose with such frivolous things as freedom of speech.
