Timostene asked gay people, women, and immigrants who voted for the right how they could support representatives who, in his opinion, promoted positions contrary to their interests. He stated that Roberto Vannacci had used offensive expressions about homosexuality, also referring to journalist Tommaso Cerno, director of the Giornale. Regarding women, Timostene asserted that Vannacci wanted to abolish the crime of femicide and had written in his program that the Mediterranean patriarchy should be protected. He described the model as one in which women stayed at home, had children, and obeyed their husbands. He also criticized the new electoral law desired by the majority: according to him, with blocked leaders and no obligation for parity among them, women in the Chamber would be half of what they are today, according to predictions shared by several parties. He added that Vannacci would also want to abolish the mandatory alternation of men and women on the lists. As for immigrants, Timostene reported that Vannacci proposed assimilation or return to their countries of origin, a line indicated with the term "remigration." He concluded by stating that those positions did not spare even right-wing voters and asked how one could vote for Giorgia Meloni, Vannacci, or Matteo Salvini. #DirittiUmani #Politica #Inclusione (translated)
