This whole thing happened while a young woman is in power. This has to do with submission to economic power, not with gender and age.
I think from her part it was more about planting the seeds of a censorship tool than pleasing economic powers. Right-wing scum always attack freedom of speech first.
I don't think this is needed to implement censorship. It's Italy, I know better than thinking something is done out of malice, when it can be the result of incompetence. I completely believe this is some idiotic implementation of what football an TV economic powers wanted. Either way, this idea that everything bad is because "old white men" is bs. We don't even need meloni, we can use the dear iron lady as an example...class and economic positions count way more than age and gender, ultimately.
