The Attitude of Fascismo Towards the Popular Par
The text argues that Fascismo must be opposed to the Popular Party due to its socialist and democratic leanings. It views the Vatican as a potential threat to Fascist power and seeks to undermine its influence. Social Democracy is seen as incompatible with Fascist ideology, which emphasizes nationalism and authoritarianism. The author advocates for a strong centralized state and dismisses liberal democracy as weak and ineffective.

First lines
Same speech delivered in the Chamber, 21st June 1921.
Hon. Mussolini. I come now to the Popular Party; and I wish to remind it first that in the history of Fascismo there are no invasions of churches, and not even the assassination of the monk Angelico Galassi, who was killed by revolver shots at the foot of the altar. I confess to you that there have been some chastisements and the sacred burning of the offices of a newspaper which called the Fascisti a band of criminals. (Comments; interruptions from the Centre.)
