Timostene addressed the secretary of the Democratic Party, Elly Schlein, and those managing the party's accounts, arguing that in 2026, politics primarily took place on social media. In his view, news originated and circulated online before making it to television, while the party's gatherings attracted the same people. He criticized the Democratic Party's poor presence on social media and claimed that market visits and television appearances lacked sufficient visibility. He also argued that the party was at a disadvantage on television: according to him, Rai had been taken over by the right, and Mediaset had always sided with them. He proposed filming market visits and posting television appearances online as well. Timostene noted that twenty-year-olds spent a lot of time on their phones and stated that in March they contributed to the victory of the No vote in the referendum on justice through Instagram stories and TikTok videos shared among friends. He added that that vote was against the government and that the Democratic Party needed to win their support individually. He urged Schlein and the party to seek out young people on the platforms they frequented, respond to comments, and show themselves in person. He accused them of appearing detached and argued that the Democratic Party was mainly present in others' news broadcasts, often in relation to controversies with Giuseppe Conte. He wrote that this also concerned the accounts of the Democratic Party's deputies and senators. #politica #socialmedia #elezioni (translated)
