I liked your analysis and I think that seeing the Italian situation by a foreign point of view is very important, but I don't think his movement can be compared to anarchysm. His success is due to the big corruption of Italian politicians ( All of the big parties had big scandals such as personal use of pubblic funding, sex with minors, the biggest salaries in europe even if they have the biggest abseenteism percent) which tired Italian population in a crysis moment like this. I think his movement remebers the first fascism, infact he never declared himself against the fascism and he did strange declaration pro casapound( a neofascism movement)and he did some things such as crossing by swimming the Strait of Messina, like Mussolini did, in order to have the simpathy of old fascists. It is a very dangerous situation and the fact that population loves him, as in the episode, is only because he had no direct confrontation to the others candidates by his wanting and for his inactuable campaign ( he claimed that Italy should not pay for his public debt). He is roumored to be pupped as Waldo in the tv show by other important men.<br />Sorry for my English<br />grazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05967979790216018248noreply@blogger.com
