The Trouble with Giorgia’s Melonis: UK Guardian Seethes over Next Italy PM ‘Sexualising’ Herself, Opposing Gender Quotas
breitbart.com ^ | 9/30/2022 | Jack Montgomery

The Guardian is upset that Giorgia Meloni, very likely set to become Italy’s first woman prime minister, is opposed to gender quotas and “sexualised” herself during the election.

In an article harping on the fact that the national conservative leader “posted [a] sexualised clip of herself during [the] election campaign, favours curbs on abortion and is against ‘pink quotas’” by Rome correspondent Angela Giuffrida, the British newspaper appeared irate that she believed “roles should be achieved through merit, not gender”.

The “sexualised” video — a joke social media post uploaded after electioneering was officially closed of a fully-clothed Meloni holding two melons in front of her chest and saying “September 25th [election day], I’ve said everything” — was “a further indication that Meloni would not be carrying the torch for feminists as prime minister” for “those who found the clip distasteful”, the leftist news outlet suggested.

Giuffrida appears to have gone so far as to contact Meloni’s team for a statement on the video, and was “told [that] the melons were simply a play on the surname Meloni” — which means melons — and dismissed any suggestion that she was “a woman against women” as “distasteful” and “outside of reality”.

And, AND, she has a sense of humor. For libs, humor is not allowed. How did we miss this? Search didn't reveal it.

Chop kids body parts off but don’t joke around with melons...the left has that Stalinist sense of morality we’ve all come to know and love.

This is the sort of visual double entendre that was common place and enjoyable up until the woke crowd started using “being offended” as a form of currency. Now we live in a humorless age where everyone walks on eggshells for fear of offending someone.

At least she didn’t “generize herself.”

And she has a sense of humor, making a play on her name.

Momma mia Meloni has more than a touch of Trump’s senses of humor. Refreshing.

i saw the speech that she made her mark with ...wow!

A conservative firebrand, with the fire of John Adams.

She is the for real old school.

Too bad for the Guardian that this woman inhabits free space in the editor’s mind.

The far left Guardian has gone and totally lost their minds since Meloni won.
They'd be better off going to Afghanistan for treatment from the Taliban.

Normal people are not allowed to be humorous.

And she may be the first national leader to be photographed in a string bikini. Which is a plus in my book.

Having carefully studied those, I can say, judiciously, that she doesnt really merit memes about meloni, as such, since here figure does not suit them.

And yes, like Trump she has a fine sense of humor and an animated, vivacious character. She has a real personality, unlike these journalistic hacks.

Everything, I mean absolutely 100% EVERYTHING liberals do, say or think is about “sexualizing” things, especially children. They are absolutely obsessed with sex.

So why in the world should they be upset?

Yep, she’s really stroked the elites’ fur backward. It’s funny to watch.
