Berlusconi and the bus of tr ***, rain of criticism. Him: «Sad, mean and humorless»
«A crap», «women as objects». Numerous attacks, the Cav: "Normal locker room joke"" What rubbish. And how sad », commented the leader of Action Carlo Calenda. "How disgusting", echoed Teresa Bellanova of Italia Viva, " a sexist sentence in which once again the woman is not a subject with full dignity, but an object for the use and consumption of men, a prize for the brave " .
Rain of criticism on Silvio Berlusconi for what he said last night when speaking to the Monza players during the team's Christmas dinner.
«We found a new coach who was the coach of our Primavera team: he's good, nice, kind and able to stimulate our boys. I added extra stimulation, because I said to the guys who have come here now: 'Juventus, Milan and the other big teams are coming now, if you win with one of these I'll get a bus of tr*** to the locker room ' ".
The joke, immortalized in a video, went around the web, provoking the indignant reactions of various political exponents.
«Miserable and dangerous concepts», thunders the M5s deputy Chiara Appendino. « What does Giorgia Meloni think? Do we keep quiet and pass this message on to our daughters? Is it permissible that women are considered sexual objects, prizes to be delivered as if they were goods purchased at the market?».
« Unworthy words, vulgar sexism used as student spirit », the lunge of Laura Boldrini.
Marco Grimaldi (Verdi-Italian Left): «Senator, former Prime Minister and for months candidate for President of the Republic of Meloni, Salvini and associates. A shame for all Italians , we cannot get used to this misogyny and this vulgarity".
"There's nothing to laugh about," Monica Cirinnà tweets, " confirms the patriarchal culture that reduces women to objects, the antechamber of violence ."
The leader of Forza Italia and president of Monza responded to the criticisms with a post on Instagram: «Frankly I didn't think, and no one could have imagined, that a simple joking and clearly paradoxical locker room joke , which I addressed to the players of my Monza could arouse comments as malicious as they are trivial and unrealistic. I pity these critics. Maybe it's just their utter lack of humor that makes them so sad and yet so gratuitously mean to attack those they consider enemies . But we are at Christmas. So best wishes to them too."
