MUSSOLINI FORUM 2 (Skating Over History)

A Row of Fasces...

With their illusory message of Strength, Unity and ultimately, World Domination.

‍

Meanwhile, it's another sunny afternoon in the Eternal City.

‍

Benito Mussolini brought the Foro Italico into being. It is still the principal sports complex in Rome —and an awesome place to hang out.

‍

DUCE DUCE DUCE...

‍

"DUCE LA NOSTRA GIOVINEZZA A VOI DEDICHIAMO!"

(Duce, we dedicate our youth to you!)

‍

‍But DUCI come and go— just like the rest of us.

And in Rome , "Emperor", "Pope" or "Dictator for a Day" has  been the favorite sport for thousands of years.

‍

Still, the Duce himself had a good Roman answer to that.

Or anything else that got in his face.

‍

MENEFREGO!

Literally, "I rub it off" or "it doesn't rub me!"

I don't give a damn, in parole povere ("poor or "plain words").

‍

Also: A NOI! (To Us!)

‍

Also: VV MUSSOLINI! (Viva Mussolini!)

‍

‍

But meanwhile...amidst the detritus of history...

‍

...comes the cosmic pile-up of stuff and more stuff.

‍

Not to mention the wonders of Photoshop.

MENEFREGO in contemporary guise?

‍

So, choose your history and get in line.

But rest assured...

No one you know will be around to have the last laugh!
