<div><div dir="ltr"><div><div>Between that centre right guy and the weird conspiracy theorists, I wish Italian Pirates the best of luck!<br><br></div>Italian politics really is bizarre. Tell us all how it goes.<br><br></div>
<div>
<div>We have a few conspiracy theorists and a dodgy ex-politician in our Party, thankfully they don't have any real influence. We have been warned about the ex-politician by his former comrades.<br><br></div><div>There is a tradition of Marxist groups and Social Democrats mass-joining, hi-jacking and destroying emerging movements here in Australia. Being aware of this we built some defences into our Constitution. People aren't allowed to be a member of another Party and the National Council has the right to refuse new members if they feel the member doesn't agree our platform or organisation. In part we had to exclude members of other Parties to make sure we were OK to register. We have had to refuse a few people who are members of other Parties, they just liked us, and weren't an organised attempt to take us over.<br>
<br></div><div>I have seen Fascists try to impersonate and hijack a range of different movements, including Green Fascists and National Anarchists. Seems to be a strategy to attach themselves like a parasite and inject their hate filled venom into growing movements, they also seem to universally fail. I hope the tradition of failure continues.<br>
</div><div><br></div><div>Of course, people can change and what they think now might have nothing to do with what they thought in the past. From the Google translations of those articles I assume that is not the case.<br>
<br></div><div>Other than Carlito's claims I don't see anything undemocratic in how Italian Pirates are running things. Maybe a few things could be done better, but who couldn't say that?<br><br></div><div>Cheers<br>
