‘What is going on here?’ Meloni celebrated at Italy’s far-right Atreju Christmas festival
AI Summary
The Atreju festival, an annual event organized by Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's far-right Brothers of Italy party, took place at Castel Sant'Angelo in Rome. The festival, initially appearing as a Christmas-themed event with ice skating and festive stalls, included political displays. One display, the "bullyometer," rated hateful comments directed at Meloni's government by left-wing opponents. Another display, "the pantheon," celebrated figures the party considers strong, including Charlie Kirk, a US far-right activist. The festival drew attention when an upside-down image of Kirk, referencing Mussolini's death, was displayed, sparking questions about the event's political nature. Some visitors, unaware of the festival's political affiliation, expressed discomfort and chose not to support the event.
