Brian Molko criticised Giorgia Meloni during a concert at the Sonic Park festival

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.

    This user’s entire post history is hating artists and actively praising fascism.

    Specifically artists, even. Very odd.

      There’s anti-art hate spewed by the right, it surprised me too but its there. A lot of them usually start their rants with “art isn’t political” or “art has no value except monetary” and go from there

      That gorilla account got banned btw

            Lol. You managed to abandon your supposed disdain for ad hominem after (checks notes) one comment…

              I don’t have a disdain for ad homs if they actually come attached with something. Whether it’s an argument, explanation, rebuttal, literally anything. But if the ad hom is used as a replacement for substance then is it meaningless and fallacious, but also shows a great deal of intellectual laziness.

                  You probably think this is a galaxy brain gotcha, when in reality it just shows you’re incapable of comprehend the concept of context. I gave an opinion. You can either agree or disagree. If you disagree then either state that you disagree and leave or explain your disagreement. Leaving ad hom and pretending it’s an explanation is literally the textbook example of why this fallacy is a fallacy. It doesn’t make you any less wrong or me any less right. It just showcases your inability to actually rebuttal what was said. With that being said, if some moron is clearly engaging in bad faith, then there’s nothing for me to explain. There’s literally no argument for me to counter, therfore, these morons just get a reflection of their engagement
