On this day in 1945, Italian fascist Benito Mussolini was summarily executed, likely by communist partisan Walter Audisio, and then his corpse was hung upside down in the Piazzale Loreto, where it was beaten and shot by angry crowds.
Benito Mussolini (1883 - 1945) was the founder and leader of the National Fascist Party who inspired numerous fascist leaders, such as Adolf Hitler, Francisco Franco, and António de Oliveira Salazar, ruling Italy as "Il Duce" since 1925.
Mussolini's grip on power had begun slipping as the Allies pressed into Italian territory during World War II. On April 25th, 1945, Mussolini attempted to flee Milan for Switzerland after the Comitato di Liberazione Nazionale Alta Italia (Committee of National Liberation for Northern Italy) seized control of the city. Two days later, Mussolini, along with other fascist leaders, were arrested traveling in a German convoy near the village of Dongo.
Accounts vary on how exactly Mussolini was killed, but the most commonly accepted version of the events suggest communist partisan Walter Audisio was the person who pulled the trigger. Following World War II, Audisio would be elected to serve in the Italian Chamber of Deputies.
In any case, the evening of April 28th, 1945, the bodies of Mussolini, his mistress, and other executed fascists were loaded onto a van and dumped in Piazzale Loreto, a town square where fifteen partisans had previously been executed by fascists and their bodies left on public display.
When I'm down, the fact that Mussolini had a horrible death always manages to make me feel better. If only he survived for the torture though

I've been lurking for two years, thinking no one wants to hear what I have to say anyway, but now I'm here! Can't be worse than what you all are posting :cope:
I just can’t get over how everything costs so much and sucks so fucking hard nowadays. I just spent a sizable chunk of my monthly wages on a new piece of furniture and it fucking broke before I could even finish assembling it. The main support beam fucking snapped in half under barely any weight. It might as well have been made from balsa wood and it was so fucking expensive god damn it. And everything’s like this now. Absolute garbage costs so much money wtf

lmao, just got the most dirty look on the bus for my communist lock screen. stay mad lmao
the reaction to the whole Ukraine-Russia conflict has me convinced that most Americans do not realize that the Soviet Union was dissolved in the early 90s
My mom thinks communism just means authoritarianism and therefore Russia is still communist. I explain to her that it's a mode of production and she just forgets. I think it's safe to assume that's the case with most americans.

My favorite thing about Mussolini is that his death is a national holiday in Italy. Italians literally celebrate murdering the stupid fash bastard.

every time I see some shit on youtube about how the DPRK is deeply involved in money laundering and cyber crime, it just makes me think they're based. uncritical support for the DPRK cyber crime division every time they steal 100 million in crypto from some pedo yankees
Supposedly part of why Hitler killed himself was because he was terrified that the Red army would do to him what was done to Mussolini, which is also metal af.
That's the second-best thing to ever come out of Hitler's head.
