The LGBT nativity, the one with black Jesus and the one with Mary as a single mother: controversy over the +Europa post
Anita Likmeta, militant and candidate in the last elections, has left the party. Criticisms from Brothers of ItalyFour nativities: one with two Madonnas, one with two Josephs, another with a black Baby Jesus and finally the last with a single Mary mother and two children.
With all representations of the nativity scene accompanied by the message: «The beauty of traditions is that they can change».
The Christmas card published on social media by +Europa is causing discussion, so much so that the militant Anita Likmeta, an Italian-Albanian entrepreneur, has decided to leave the party: «If +Europa thinks of defending diversity with hypocritical nods to tradition, I for the role of the lesbian Madonna I am not available. Goodbye to +Europa and happy (unassisted) political suicide!”, he wrote.
Several FdI exponents lashed out against the post: "Pathetic", cut short Carlo Fidanza, MEP. «The demonstration – the comment of the deputy group leader in the Chamber Alfredo Antoniozzi – that Riccardo Magi's party is a thousand miles away from Marco Pannella's Radical Party which, despite being profoundly secular and atheist, respected popular feelings. This ethical relativism of a minority of dogmatists who make fun of traditions and religious identity is certainly censored by the majority of Italians."
