Recently, Italian President Mattarella appointed Meloni, leader of the Italian Brotherhood Party, as the prime minister of the new government at the presidential palace. Unlike many European politicians who graduated from prestigious schools, Meloni did not go to university. How did Meloni go from being a low-level person who never went to college to sitting in the position of Italian prime minister?
One
Meloni was born in 1977 in the Galbatella region of Rome, the capital of Italy, which is known as a wealthy area. Her father is a senior accountant, her mother is an ordinary worker, and she has an older sister, and the family is not too rich, but they also have food and clothing.
But her father is a proper scumbag. When she was 2 years old, her father suddenly quit his job and boarded a cruise ship bound for Spain, and has not been heard from since, and the family of three has lost their financial resources.
Meloni and her sister lived with their mother, who had to work several jobs at the same time in order to make ends meet. To add insult to injury, a year after being abandoned by his father, Meloni's house caught fire and the family survived, but everything in the family was reduced to ashes. The mother took Meloni and her sister to a small apartment in the suburbs, where most of the poor lived in poverty.
The children of the poor are headed early. She went to school during the day and had to work at night. She wrote in her memoirs that she was often ridiculed by her classmates for "having no father", living in embarrassment, and often bullied by classmates, Meloni's childhood was quite depressing, resulting in her suffering from "bulimia" and obesity. Because she was overweight, she was nicknamed "Fat Girl with No Friends" by her classmates. Childhood experiences have left deep scars in her heart.
In his youth, at the age of 15, Meloni joined the youth organization of the "Italian Social Movement" "Youth Front", actively participated in political activities, and worked hard to lose weight and strive to change his destiny. After graduating from high school, she joined the Italian right-wing party National Front and became more politically active. In addition to politics, she had to work hard to earn a living, working as a nanny, waiter, bartender and other jobs.
In 1998, at the age of 21, Meloni won his first local elections and was elected to the Provincial Council of Rome. In the 2006 Italian general election, Meloni was elected to the Chamber of Deputies and became the youngest deputy speaker in Italian history. In 2008, Berlusconi, a right-wing politician and the legendary president of AC Milan, ran to become Prime Minister of Italy, and in his formation of a new government team, Meloni had established a certain appeal due to his active youth and was recommended as the government cabinet youth minister.
In 2008, the financial crisis broke out in the United States, and in response to the financial crisis, the United States began to collect a large amount of funds from all over the world, which gradually evolved into a world financial crisis, and the global economy fell into a trough.
In response to the financial crisis, countries around the world have thrown out huge economic stimulus packages, and global sovereign debt has continued to rise. At the end of 2009, after Greece's sovereign debt crisis broke out, the entire eurozone successively triggered a domino effect, and finally, formed a European sovereign debt crisis. In 2011, the Italian debt crisis broke out. The then Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi resigned amid internal and external difficulties, and Meloni followed suit.
At this time, Meloni, who had ministerial experience, and some right-wing politicians founded the Italian Brotherhood Party, which took its name from the first line of the Italian national anthem, "Italian brothers", and advocated the defense of the national interests of Italians.

In 2001, the United States began to invade Afghanistan in the name of counter-terrorism, and after the United States occupied Afghanistan, it began to infiltrate the Islamic world in the Middle East and North Africa from a base of consciousness and took the opportunity to launch a color revolution.
The United States has intervened extensively in the internal political, economic and military aspects of Middle Eastern countries, and many countries have lost their original stability, a large number of civilians have lost their jobs, and the government is corrupt. Since 2010, riots and wars have occurred in Tunisia, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Libya, Yemen and other North African and Middle East countries. Because these countries are predominantly inhabited by Arabs, these riots and wars have been dubbed the "Arab Spring" by Westerners, a catastrophe that left millions dead and tens of millions refugees.
As a result of the ongoing war and instability in these regions, large numbers of refugees have fled into the neighboring Europe. At the same time, these refugees are mainly Arabs and believe in Islam; Greece and Italy, on the other hand, are predominantly Greek and Italian, believing in Christianity. Differences in ethnic and religious beliefs bring great contradictions and conflicts to each other.

The mainstream politics of Europe is dominated by the "liberal" forces of international capital, and with the development of "liberalism", it has been manifested as a "white left", they do not care about the local bottom people, only care about immigrants, ethnic minorities, sexual minorities and environmental protection issues... On the surface, the "white left" stands on the moral high ground, but in essence, the international bourgeoisie overthrows its dominant position by dividing it into different political identities among the ordinary people, and by dividing the ordinary people so that the ordinary people cannot form a joint force.
In the face of a large influx of refugees into Europe, the mainstream political forces in Europe have opened their doors to refugees, and the government has arranged refugee camps for these refugees, with meals and supervision, no money for medical treatment, and no need to spend any money on basic life. These refugees are better off than the local underclass. However, there are a large number of young men among the refugees, and there are many terrorists mixed in, and rape and terror are common in many countries.
For example, Sweden, a Nordic country known for its peace and tranquility, saw a sharp increase in its rape rate after a large number of refugees entered, surpassing India to become the world's largest and becoming a "rape country."
However, under the rule of the "white left" political forces, although the people's opposition to refugees is endless, the government and the media deliberately conceal the crimes of refugees, and the police do not care about the crimes of refugees. Even in particularly serious crimes, the police and media do not disclose the names and identities of some refugees who commit crimes, and all photos are coded because "racial discrimination cannot be allowed."
Hypocritical politicians demand that the state accept refugees with a sense of moral superiority, and they do not want to take them into their homes at the expense of the public. Do unto others as you would have them do to you. Truly caring people should lead by example by first taking refugees into their own homes.

Greece and Italy are the southern gates of Europe, the starting point for refugees from the Middle East and North Africa to land in Europe, and Greece and Italy have long been overwhelmed by the influx of refugees.
Faced with this situation, Meloni led the "Italian Party of Brothers" to begin to practice her political philosophy, mainly advocating: attacking the indifference of the "white left" government to the Italians at the bottom; upholding Christian traditions and opposing the legalization of gay marriage; Oppose foreign immigrants and refugees, and promote illegal immigrants stealing jobs and income from Italians.
Because the mainstream media is under the control of the "white left" political forces, the "Italian Party of Brothers" has been a marginal party in Italy for many years, and in several elections in Italy, the party has not reached the 4% threshold of the vote to enter the parliament. In the 2018 election, the Italian Brothers Party barely won just over 4% of the vote.
In order to have a better image for election and publicity, Meloni desperately lost weight, set himself a small goal of losing weight, and did not eat a bite of pasta for 8 years.
With the hardships of the Italian middle and lower classes and the problem of refugees, the Italian fraternal party, which speaks for the Italian nation, has gradually won the favor of the Italian people.
At a right-wing rally in Verona, Italy, in 2019 to "defend the traditional family," Meloni chanted "I am Giorgia, a woman, a mother, an Italian, a Christian!" You don't want to take away these identities! In short, powerful phrases, she proclaimed her core political values.
In this year's Italian prime ministerial campaign, Meloni led the Italian Brotherhood Party, the United Alliance Party and the Italian Forces Party to form a center-right coalition of parties to run for election. Meloni, 45, campaigned under the slogan "Defend God, Country and Family," "Italy and the Italian people first," defend Christianity and traditional families, oppose same-sex marriage, and call for more benefits for Italian families, less European bureaucracy, lower taxes and crack down on illegal immigration. She also opposes LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people).
During the campaign, Meloni retweeted a video of a Ukrainian woman being raped by a refugee in Italy, with the caption "People cannot remain silent about the brutal sexual violence committed by an asylum refugee against a Ukrainian woman in the Italian city of Piacenza during the day." She also wrote: "Give this woman a hug. I will do everything in my power to restore the safety of the city. ”
Meloni's claims and actions were besieged by "white left" political forces, starting with criticism of Meloni's exposure of refugee rape videos. Meloni's previous slogan "My name is Georgia, I'm a woman, I'm a mother, I'm a Christian" was also spoofed by well-intentioned people and spread wildly on the Italian Internet and in dance halls.
Originally, the original purpose of the "white left" forces to produce this dance music was to oppose Meloni, and they disliked Meloni's rejection of gay marriage and refugees, so they edited Meloni's speech clips, accompanied by beats, and made dance music to satire. Unexpectedly, this resonated with the middle and lower classes of the Italian people, and this song unexpectedly became popular, not only did not achieve the original intention of smearing Meloni, but made her popular and unexpectedly popular.
Perhaps in the eyes of Italians, her experience is also very civilian, not a high elite, but a counterattacker who struggles step by step from the bottom. She fights for the interests and voices of the middle and lower classes, which can make everyone more trusted and resonate.
The results of the election were announced, and the center-right coalition of Italian brothers and other parties won the election, and the Italian brothers party became the largest party in parliament. Under the center-right coalition's election agreement, Meloni was nominated as prime minister of the Italian government.
Meloni has also successfully formed the cabinet of Italy's new government, can she get her wish in the face of powerful "white left" forces?
