Do not name the politically correct in vain

The pathetic haggling on the Zan Ddl which would violate “freedom of expression” brings the question of politically correctness and cancel culture, real democratic emergencies in the country where, as is well known, the CP never arrived (and it would do us so much good, if anything). Instead, his reaction arrived on time, the “politically incorrect”, in a nation historically ferocious in its oppositions and in the public debate, in which in the newspapers and on TV and on the radio you can really hear any, other than cancel culture. Those who argue that “nothing more can be said” generally hasn’t had something to say for years, if they ever had it, and now it’s all boiled up. The Italic “out of the chorus” are then out of the chorus only when it costs nothing, therefore generally engaged in victim blaming, defense of the powerful even when unpresentable, a very Italian “making the originals” in a country that does not erase anything, indeed, forgets and removes every time, so you always have to start from scratch, and therefore even any unlikely erased can be re-presented under new signs and company names and no one will check or remember. But in the meantime the most successful comedians are gearing up to say on TV the words with an “n” to indicate people of color and the one with an “f” to indicate gays, reaping great ratings and proving to be truly “out of the box »(But then, suggestion: why not also try a good blasphemy, in the broadcasts? So yes they would be truly transgressive and out of the chorus, then let’s see what happens).
