How bad is it in Italy these days? Those who hope for democracy, including those on the left, now largely support a post-fascist who was an ally of Berlusconi's until very recently.

Yikes. Yascha Mounk does a number on Gianfranco Fini here, and goes after the rest of the European right (and much of the left) here.
