”In the street , it’s happened a few times that I hear a couple of people chatting:
- “THIS EVENING there’s Beppe GRILLO in the square…”
and more than once, the response was
- “Who? Ah Beppe Grillo, the comic? It’s such a long time that he’s not been seen…”
And inevitably I wondered: “How many people are there that don’t know about the battles that Beppe and the Movement have been carrying out for a number of years?
It’s really true. The PARTIES occupy all the spaces. And IT’S FOR THIS REASON THAT THEY HAVE FOUGHT TO GET THIS FILTH OF BIPOLARISM and still more THE ELIMINIATION OF THE PREFERENCE VOTE. And ever with the logic of the party THERE’S ONE PERSON WHO DECIDES FOR THE OTHERS. The same person that places the director of the RAI. The same person that manages the appointment of various presidents, positions that are overpaid and so coveted. They have the control of the media. And in a country that has famously “got older” the INTERNET is something that doesn’t compete with the TV. This is why the commitment has to be TWICE AS MUCH. It’s not right to leave people in the hands of the TRADITIONAL means of communication.” Mario Amabile


In Italy there are two worlds. Two parallel universes. In the first, people who get their information from the TV and the newspapers. In the second, those that get their information on the Internet. The first are full of certainty; the second have doubts, and for this reason are always checking up with different sources of information. The inhabitants of the two worlds live in the same physical reality, but they perceive it in a different way. The world of the traditional media is openly at war with the other world. Instead of missiles, it uses silences, omissions, falsities, public financing, laws, money from the lobbies. The first world is strong and seems indestructible. It’s an “across the board” world from RAI to Mediaset, from the Gruppo Editoriale L'Espresso to the RCS MediaGroup and it has the same objective. To protect the System, to maintain the status quo, to prevent the inhabitants of the first world from transferring into the second. The soldiers of the first world, (but the right word for them is "mercenaries”), make some incursions into the second world, but they are jeered at with hundreds of comments and emails and they have to retreat. Some of them never get over this experience. The two worlds, even though they seem to be impermeable to each other, and with no communication between them, are seeing an ever increasing number of inhabitants who are moving to the second world. Like grains of sand in an egg timer. Slowly but constantly. The “tripods” of the first world are reacting with impatience in a disorganised way. Their lies are more frequent, irascible and boorish, but even less plausible. Between the first world and the second world, the distance is getting bigger. The “tripods” will end up in the crevice that they have constructed In fact; it’s not possible to go against reality for very long.
