Giulia potrei essere io o qualsiasi altra ragazza che commette lo "sbaglio" di fidarsi

e adesso ci sono genitori che non riusciranno MAl ad accettare la scomparsa della figlia, che qualcuno di cui si fidavano gliel'ha portata via. e genitori che dovranno convivere con il peso di un ragazzo che non pensavano potesse commettere un gesto del genere.

smettiamola di pensare che le donne siano esagerate e che abbiano paura di tutto, perché dobbiamo averne, per forza. è l'unica cosa che ci avete lasciato.

Preview: the author of the post I reblogged was talking about something that happened in Italy, on November 12th. A 22yo woman named Giulia Cecchetin disappeared alongside her ex, Filippo Turetta. At some point, a video of him beating her and then dragging her to his car appeared. Giulia's body was found on the 18th of November, and her ex was arrested in Germany some days later. He killed her, he admitted it. He committed a feminicide. Giulia's sister spoke up against patriarchal culture, which she blamed for the death of her sister, and Italian politicians and their followers didn't like that. They started accusing her of being a satanist because of a hoodie she wore in an interview ( it was a band shirt that displayed a satanic symbol, not something REALLY satanic), and because she is goth. They also accused her of being a "Nazi-fem" and of "not suffering enough for the death of her sister", since she didn't cry in an interview and other bullshits.

Translation of the sexist comments reported in the image upwards, to which the OG poster was complaining about:

1) "But, the left-winged sister with a septum, she who gives the blame to Salvini (a politician) and to the government, she who knew everything and understood everything... What the heck did she do to save her? We have another Ilaria Cucchi (a girl who protested for her brother's death by the hand of police brutality), we will see her at Schlein's (another politician) side too."

2) "Sadly, the inappropriate words of Giulia's sister made a circus of 2.0 feminists arise, together with a bunch of brainless left-winged nut-heads!the cringe."

3) "I don't know if you're following the crazy rants of the sister of poor Giulia..."

4) "I feel embarrassed for Elena! I would be destroyed if I had lost my mom a year ago, imagine losing also a sister because someone killed her! Instead, she goes all chill on tv, acting like she's some kind of teacher..."

5) "she talks about patriarchy when her father economically supports her. Feminism created OF, you're free and independent, start from there and and fuck off"

Translation of the post who reported these comments:

"I found these comments on Twitter, but there are millions like these ones.

It's phrases like this that support violence against women and feminicides, but also, and especially, a mentality that to define absurd would be reductive. Words are powerful. They are weapons.

After 105 women that were KILLED by, saying that the activists are a "circus of feminists" is nauseous.

Talking about politics, about the left, the right, do you hear yourself? Women are getting KILLED and you're looking at the fact that Giulia's sister found the time to do her eyeliner and so "she's not feeling enough sadness".

This is the sick society in which we live in.

Her sister had the strength to talk, to react, to do something to help other women. And instead of praising her, people are writing this shit.

PS. Why the fuck does the nose piercing matter in this? All "sisters", and then you stereotype a person for a fucking piercing."

Ho trovato questi commenti su Twitter ma ce ne sono a milioni così.

Sono proprio frasi del genere che alimentano la violenza sulle donne ed i femminicidi, ma soprattutto una mentalità che definire assurda sarebbe riduttivo. Le parole sono potenti. Sono armi.

Dopo 105 donne UCCISE venire a dire che questo è un circo di femministe, fa venire la nausea.

Parlare di politica, di sinistra, di destra ma vi sentite? Le donne vengono UCCISE e voi state a guardare che la sorella ha avuto tempo di mettersi l'eye liner e quindi non sta provando abbastanza dolore.

Questa è la società malata in cui viviamo.

Sua sorella ha avuto la forza di parlare, di reagire, di fare qualcosa per aiutare altre donne. E invece la gente scrive cose del genere.

Ps. Che cazzo c'entra l'anello al naso, tutte sorelle e poi stereotipate una persona per un cazzo di piercing.

Everyone needs to know.

Between the 11th and 12th of this month, Giulia Cecchettin, a 22-year-old Italian girl, disappeared alongside her ex boyfriend, Filippo Turetta. Today, 18th November, her body was found in a lake 140km from where I live.

For six days, we were told that they ran away together, despite the fact Giulia was supposed to graduate from university on the 16th. That we shouldn't jump to conclusions, that there wasn't any proof he had killed her, that we were crazy for even thinking it. When a video of him beating Giulia up until she was bleeding came out, newspapers were filled with declarations from his family saying he loved her, he would never do anything to hurt her, he was just a little possessive and jealous.

We all knew. We all fucking knew since we read the words "ex boyfriend".

Giulia is the 103rd woman victim of feminicide in Italy in 2023. 103.

Meanwhile, Giulia's sister Elena, who has had to spend the last week making as much noise as possible because that was her only hope of finding her sister, was asked if the family was ready to forgive him. Newspapers talk about how good of a guy he was, they carefully avoid saying he murdered her, they refer to them as a couple. I've lost track of how many men have taken time to comment "not all men" under posts about Giulia.

Not all men, but all women.

If you live outside of Italy, you probably won't hear of this news. You probably don't know how pervasive victim blaming is in Italian news stations, how bad the statistics of feminicide are. So, please, reblog this post. Demand justice. Say Giulia Cecchettin's name.

Se domani non torno, distruggi tutto.
