“You have to do threesomes or foursomes with us … We f–k,” said Andrea Giambruno, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s now-ex-boyfriend of 10 years, to another woman.

Who else doesn't give a fuck about politicians relationships

This is the reason: “While not married to Giambruno, Meloni frequently promoted traditional family and conservative values on the campaign trail, according to Politico Europe.”

One of the conservatives mottos “do as I say not as I do”

This is about fascists who want to dictate our sex lives but are blatantly in violation of their supposed norms. It’s not some rando getting a blowie.

Yep. And also wtf is wrong with consensual group sex? Are we fucking puritans all of a sudden.

Those lines are taken from recordings of Giambruno's conversations with colleagues in between takes of the show he used to host.

The conversation was far from being what one would consider consensual and he is now been suspended and investigated for sexual harassment.

Well good I suppose. I was reacting to the headline which was designed to sound bad but didn’t actually indicate any bad behaviour

[–] SheeEttin@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, but this wasn't that. He said that the woman would have to join the group sex to get the job.

[–] townfox@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Gotcha.

I was more reacting to the headline which didn’t include any of that information but still somehow was meant to sound bad. You know?

Only if it has a chance to compromise national security.

Its the NY post. Can as ban them from this comm?

[–] SheeEttin@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I move to ban them from everything but those wire racks of free papers in gas stations. Sometimes you just need some newspaper, for cleaning windows or as kindling. This is perfect for that.
