The Ugliness of the Left

“The left has no taste, even when it comes to women”

Silvio Berlusconi, the Italian opposition leader and former Prime Minister, has provoked a cultural debate by pointing out the “http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=894" engendered by the far left, which is reflected in the poor appearance of leftists themselves, something noticed by anyone who has encountered them.

“The left has http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=4107 politicians.

The remark was immediately met with howls of “http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=3461" (from leftists who excuse the abuse of immigrant women by their Muslim husbands), but Berlusconi was putting his finger on an important element of traditional Italian culture. Italians consciously seek to cultivate a “presence” through how they dress, speak and move in public, meant to give an impression of who they are as people. This has given rise to Italy’s famous fashion world, and also has become a key national characteristic, commented on by many who visit Italy who are impressed with how well dressed Italians are.

With increased commercialization of Western culture there has been a drop in standards across the board. Leftists, who viscerally despise white culture, reflect this down at heel mentality even in how they dress, something that is particularly noticeable in sartorially keen Italy.Lack of traditional taste in dress is not a sign of inattention. In fact, far leftists often pay much more careful attention to their (expensive) slovenly appearance than normal people do to their own choice of clothes. The “anti-fascist” thugs who attack prowhite dissidents have often spent hours in front of a mirror to get the “street bum” look exact. The proper t-shirt, perfect buttons and fashionable patches are all part of a uniform.

Clothing and style is a major element of any cultural revolution. In the United States, loss of morale in the face of the “Civil Rights” changes, loss in Vietnam and Watergate was reflected in the clothing of the populace as a whole, whose ragged appearance shadowed their own psychological distress.

In Italy, the far left is consumed with hatred for tradition, culture and their own people. It is perfectly natural for such inward sickness to be reflected in appearance.
