The pillars of Italian society on full display: misogyny, homophobia, and xenophobia!
Italy's version of the reality show Big Brother
The prolonged confinement of mentally ill Italians in a poorly constructed house on a studio backlot somewhere in Rome for 197 grueling days. Here you will experience the epic highs and lows of humanity. You will laugh, you will cry, you will achieve levels of serotonin you would not believe possible, but the crash is as inevitable as it is merciless. Italy is arguably the most socially regressive of the Western nations, and this program spends its entire duration proving that to the audience. If you are of any minority (a woman, a PoC, LGBTQ+, etc.) and you tune in, you are entitled to financial compensation. At just 23 years old, Miss Italia, Zeudi Di Palma, managed to capture a global audience with her unwavering compassion and steadfast authenticity. The value in the queer representation she brought to screens across 138 countries can not be understated. If there is anything to be taken away from this edition, it is her. The histories had no record of an ethical Italian before now.
