During the Italian fascist period, it was used as the political headquarters of Benito Mussolini, and was adorned with a giant sculpture of the dictator's face surrounded by the word "SI" (Italian for "YES”). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palazzo_Braschi

They are obsessed with superiority and supremacy. More than anything they believe in hierarchy. Hierarchies of the inherently "superior" (ie, themselves) over the inherently "inferior." It's everything to them. Literally everything.

    I'm always trying to think of a suitably offensive term for people who believe heirarchies are natural and desirable. 'Rarchs, supremacists, boot-brained, the cruelty-inclined - nothing good so far.

    Faith in heirarchy - the conviction that others deserve to suffer for your benefit - is the poison seed from which springs the objectively worst behaviour of humanity: war, genocide, slavery, empire, fascism, capitalism, colonialism, monarchy, institutionalized religion, etc.

    Wait, so prez posted this mussolini pic? He's always quoting him, or was. Kind of funny because Mussolini was an untalented bitch of a leader that failed. So, sure, just like you prez, except you are more of a piece of fucking shit, more stupid, and more of an asshole even.

    Mussoline shielded a bunch of others from the nazis, the prez wants to kill them all just because.

    No, one of his staffers did this. I had to do a triple check and I still can't believe my eyes. This visual statement that this administration is fascist is bizarre, like Twilight Zone shit.

    Bruh, nobody posted this from Trump. The old photograph from Mussolini's special building is merged with the screenshot.

    I bet whatever techbro he's been talking to isn't very happy about this. Ai is a chosen marketing term, deliberately invoking scifi that it won't live up to.

    Also tacky and cringe, like all of Trump's stupid ideas. I'll never get why he feels the need to mark literally everything himself.

    I was just wondering how would it look like if all the "AI" advertising would be replaced with "SI" and it reminded me of this.

    It's like that old Colbert Show gag where he'd ask a guest, "George W. Bush: great president or greatest president?"
