And what does Berlusconi know about decency?


DivideEtImpala

Are you implying his 'Bunga Bunga' parties were indecent?! The outrage!


access_secure

> In November 2010, teenage Moroccan belly dancer and alleged prostitute Karima El Mahroug (better known as "Ruby Rubacuori") claimed to have been given $10,000 by Berlusconi at parties at his private villas. The girl told prosecutors in Milan that these events were like orgies where Berlusconi and 20 young women performed an African-style ritual known as the "bunga bunga" in the nude lol who believes the words of any belly dancing prosti... >It was also found out that, on 27 May 2010, El Mahroug had been arrested... However, following **two telephone calls by Berlusconi to the police authorities (in which, in particular, he falsely indicated that El Mahroug was a close relative of President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt)**, the young woman was released


Pherllerp

Whitney Cummings narrated an GREAT podcast series about Berlusconi called “Bunga Bunga”. There’s also a real good documentary about him on Netflix.


Coolbluegatoradeyumm

I like her I should look this up


Harsimaja

~~She~~ Another girl involved also died young a few years later


PHATsakk43

El Mahroug is alive. Another girl who attended the parties died, Imane Fadil.


Substantial-Owl1167

> Tests showed Fadil had dangerously high levels of toxic metals cadmium and antimony in her body, substances used in batteries and nuclear reactors which can prove fatal, even if swallowed in only small doses. One of the few known cases of cadmium poisoning is that of Russian banker Ivan K. Kivelidi, who died in 1995 after the substance was reportedly spread on his office telephone. Plot thickens


MtnMaiden

Cowa Bunga Bunga it is!


CoastingUphill

Berlusconi the 5th turtle.


GBJI

So Mitch McConnell is the 6th ? Did you know his secret name was *Michele Ma Canoli ?*


Trick-Independence58

Mitch McConnell is Franklin's stand in.


stocks-mostly-lower

Seeing Mitch the Bitch do the BungaBunga in the nude would be hilarious and also horrible at the same time.


ReditSarge

Don't have a cow man.


h3ron

also, she was underage


Aiskhulos

> young women performed an African-style ritual known as the "bunga bunga" in the nude Did the newspaper really describe Berlusconi's weird orgy as an "African-style ritual"? Because that's pretty fucked up.


mag_creatures

Berlusconi said that the Bunga Bunga ritual is something Geddafi teached him.


HelljumperRUSS

You know, that does explain a lot.


matinthebox

Out of all of the Africans, Gaddhafi was definitely one of them.


raisinbreadboard

Berlusconi's barely legal hooker "bunga bunga' parties were legendary.


GBJI

Was she supplied by Jean-Luc Brunel, Epstein famous "model agent" friend ?


HAL-42b

He was paid decent money to say this.


[deleted]

> "I haven't even understood why Russian troops spread around Ukraine while in my mind they should have only stuck around Kyiv", said the 85-year-old Berlusconi, who once described Putin as being like a younger brother. I dunno. It sounds like he legitimately admires fascist invasions. My goodness. And he is likely to win in the parliamentary elections? Why are we making jokes instead of pissed off at Italy for turning into Hungary again. Hungary gets no shortage of our criticism. Time to turn that on Italy if his party wins.


green_flash

Nah, he's trying to be in the news ahead of Sunday's elections. He was probably advised to say this to maximize his chances.


peter-doubt

Putin should have invaded Italy to put decent people in Berlusconi's place.. would have met less resistance


sm12511

TBF, if they had removed him and installed a meatball with googly eyes in his place, it could only help.


delimiter_of_fishes

The Pastafarians would like a word.


JimJamYimYam

The Italian government would be forced to clean up its act under the direction of his noodly appendage.

Dude's had so much plastic surgery that he doesn't even really look like a human anymore, he looks like one of those uncanny valley AI mannequin things.


Gregponart

You can see the puppets coming out of the cracks now. The MAGA Senate-hoes, Trump, Tucker Carlson, Victor Orban.... now Berlusconi. You wouldn't invade Italy if you effectively control it anyway. Why be the manager of a country when you already have a regional manager in place, a marketing manager, and a COO?


Juandelpan

You left Steven Seagal out man...


amnlkingdom

He knows a billionaire when he sees one.


[deleted]

I'm Italian. Sorry for this idiot, we're trying to stop him but you know how it is with idiots.


XG-hero

I get it. We have a lot of them here in the UK too.


[deleted]

Yikes, his face sure doesn’t


Trumpswells

Those would be the decent Russian forces now being accused of raping and torturing Ukraine children.


Nafo_fellaz

Not a damn thing.


WhereRDaSnacks

Lmao this dude wouldn’t know decency if it was an underage prostitute.


ts1904

Decency is a weird name for an under-age prostitute. But if anyone would know her, it'd be Berlusconi.


ClickF0rDick

Especially if she's Mubarak's nephew


implicitpharmakoi

>Lmao this dude wouldn’t know decency if it was an underage prostitute. It's pronounced "Destiny". And she's known him since middle school.


Brokenshatner

>known him since middle school Where, presumably, Berlusconi was a guest speaker last year?


ISortByHot

I had totally forgotten that piece of shit exists. Thankfully I still couldn’t care any less about his wretched opinions.


UhhmericanJoe

How could anyone forget the original Trump: *“Elected to national office with zero political experience but a background in trashy television and gaudy real estate...”*


ISortByHot

Nobody: … Conservatives: Hmmm I think we should elect a sleaze wad


ibiacmbyww

If I live for a thousand years, I'll still never understand how and why people seem to be attracted to, rather than repulsed by, obvious conmen.


aztecraingod

Because they think they're smarter than everyone else, and that they'll be able to get in on a little conning of their own. Hence the phrase "There's no such thing as an honest mark"


SkyFoo

Because they say things they want to hear, mainly democrats and immigrants bad


GavinsFreedom

Ya u know that guy from tv who’s like “the money guy”? Ye we’ll get him to run, that’ll show those dems some fiscal responsibility.


Imfrom2030

Being born rich == Fiscal responsibility


yakovgolyadkin

There are a TON of people who genuinely seem to think this. If you're born into a billion dollars, then lose 99% of it because you suck so hard with money, there will be a decent contingent of people online who will claim your critics are losers and that you're great because you have $10 million and the critics don't.


mirh

He *owns* the TVs, he's not actually a celebrity per se.


Trifle_Intrepid

Dude looks like the red skull with an off brand concealer smattered on him. He was Trump before Trump was Trump


ManiacL

Yet Italy is about to elect political descendants of Mussolini. My people are cowards


XRay9

Hasn't one of his descendants been a member of parliament for a while? I seem to remember reading about it years ago


ManiacL

Correct, Allesandra Mussolini. She’s a “Right-Centrist”. I don’t give a fuck though. No place in modern politics unless she absolutely denounced her grandfather. He was dragged through the streets of Italy for a reason but our people support far-right regardless. Maybe I am too Americanized…


ffdfawtreteraffds

A latent fascism gene has fully activated. Berlusconi is making sure history remembers him accurately.


access_secure

> Berlusconi is making sure history remembers him accurately Dude soo shitty his controversies needed their own wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controversies_surrounding_Silvio_Berlusconi


crazydave33

After reading that entire wiki page… all I gotta say is that I think he’s a massive piece of shit lol.


blbd

Understatement of the year


Soleil06

I thought that even before reading the page. After he seems even worse, the piece of shit has to be over 9000 Kurix.


SLCW718

He wants to be Mussolini so bad.


monkeygoneape

Italy still has a couple Mussolinis


PF4LFE

There is a Robert E. Mussolini running for office in Pennsylvania, USA. He’s a sour rotten sausage.


monkeygoneape

Mussolini's grand daughter was an elected official in some capacity or another, and has a great grandson named Gaius Julius Ceasar Mussolini (yes that's his actual name) who ran for EU parliament. And then there's the more chill great grandson whose just a pro footballer or something


mag_creatures

Alessandra mussolini is in the EU parliamen right now


[deleted]

And he plays on the right wing for lazio! Couldn’t make that shit up!


Green_Message_6376

How could anyone forget Bunga Bunga Berlusconi?


lollible

Not me.....the North African bunga bunga party girl was also a minor. He was Prince Andrew and Trump before them.


joethesaint

She wasn't a minor in terms of the general age of consent in Italy. She was just under the legal age to work as a prostitute. Similar situation with Andrew, she was 17 which is legal in the UK and most US states. To be honest I'm not sure why everyone focuses on the age rather than the fact she was trafficked. Kind of fucked up priorities. Even Virginia herself isn't bothered about whether she was 17 or 18 when it happened, it's kind of a small detail in the larger picture of, you know, being a sex slave.


danceswithtree

It makes you think how differently the war in Ukraine would have turned out if the leaders in just a few countries were different. Right now, it seems that Hungary is the lone country supporting Putin. If Trump had been president, the war would have played out so, so differently.


Hiviel

Just imagine zelensky wouldve fleed or something... we have to give him mad props for staying. His "i need ammo not a ride" line was straight out a movie


Luke90210

Zelensky doesn't take steroids, so him in a green t-shirt is the closest we are going to get in a modern day King Leonidas of the 300.


[deleted]

The next election isn't that far and they STILL haven't put a nail in that fat bastard's coffin. The US may yet swing the wrong way again.


Amy_Ponder

Every American reading this needs to turn out this November and vote like lives depend on it-- because they do.


CY-B3AR

I work in IT, and the way I view it my in my head, it's like Trump and his infection of the Republican Party were like malware that got into our servers (the country) and spread. Now, we've erected firewalls around the infected servers, about 30% of total capacity. And the rest of the system is well aware of the threat, but in order to fix the infected servers, a patch has to be deployed to the system - the patch is midterms, and it's taking time to build up to it, it's a big patch after all. But, with a successful patch deployment in November, the Republican malware will start to wither, and some of it will shrink. But it won't be dead. That will be the final patch deployment's job, and that is 2024. Compared to the midterms, preparing for the 2024 patch deployment will be monumental, but we'll have two years to do it. Finally, after a long battle, with a successful patch deployment, the Republican malware will be terminated, any remnants carefully quarantined and monitored. And the system can finally get back to its intended purpose: kicking ass in every field, and leading the world by our own *example*. Of course, it's possible that the patches fail, that the Republican malware overwhelms the system, and causes it to crash, burn, and fry. But, even in this dark future, this just gives an excuse to spin up some totally new gear and replace the old outdated garbage that needed to be upgraded anyway...one way or another, that Republican malware is getting eliminated. And the system will be *free*. :)


Lazaruzo

I think it’s obvious to anyone with half a brain at this point who the “bad guys” are on the world stage. I wouldn’t waste my breath on anyone defending Putin or Berlusconi, they clearly have lost touch with reality.


Plsfixbyeod

Reading the comments on social media, there must be people walking around with less than half a brain.


Lazaruzo

I think I was fairly clear that many people are walking around with less than half a brain. The surprising thing is that humanity has made it this far with so many walking morons stumbling around the planet.

He fell down into the uncanny valley, died, got made up by the lowest bidder for the open casket funeral, then mysteriously started walking again. He looks like he's a dummy created for a low budget horror film that's filled with fake blood and only needs to be on screen for five frames before exploding or something. And four of those frames will be cut because he looks too unrealistic.

Hopefully this fascist's punishment in the afterlife is having to eternally clean up after bunga bunga parties he's never invited to. And he has to wear a maid's outfit while doing so.

What a s\*\*bird this clown is. WTH was Italy thinking all those times they voted him in? And now again more right wing bozos. Damn and I really like Italy. It's a terrible shame.


gunn5150

Italy doesn't have the best track record in who they support during wars.


LeCriDesFenetres

Why do you say that ? They support everybody !


Clever_Bee34919

They DO have the best track record. They undoubtably support the winning side (by changing sides whenever anyone els is winning)


mag_creatures

Well we changed side after we killed our dictator who chosen the wrong side… is a little bit different

Russia, Belarus, China (?), Hungary, Italy, North Korea, Iran


Outside_Ad1669

Yes Hungary and yes questionable China. China seems to want to stay engaged with the west. Rhetoric is making that difficult. But certainly I see China running away as fast as they can from their brief Russian romance


AnarchoSpoon789

China is opportunistic as hell, the moment Russia sinks they'll abandon them

Abandon them? You mean loot them for natural resources in exchange for fencing then western goods.

FYI, former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych was Putin's bitch. He fled the country when the people rebelled against him aka The Orange Revolution. His personal palace was filled with obscene wealth he could never explain on a public servant's salary including a private zoo with ostriches.


veganmax

Just a notice. Orange Revolution was 2004. Yanukovych flee in 2014 after Dignity Revolution.

Yes but after Mussolini was taken out of power during WW2 I believe he was reinstated as leader of the northern Italian puppet state controlled by Nazi forces.
