We all remember the famous song of that dangerous racist Edoardo Vianello: I Watussi, everlasting catchphrase that didn't end with the summer of 1963 and which has been making Italians dance under the umbrella for over sixty years, unaware of the crime they were committing. Finally justice is done.

To the racist in question, now eighty-eight years old and therefore a repeat offender for more than six decades, a seriously discriminatory text was censored, which makes repeated reference to the "dark continent", expression today considered stereotyped, Eurocentric and full of colonial connotations. But above all the song makes repeated reference to "n*gri", term today considered highly derogatory, offensive and racist.

Before proceeding further I owe you an explanation on why I use the star symbol in the text «*» and the «@». I do it in deference to today's hypocrisy and on the other hand because it reminds me of my adolescence, when in the morning, going to school, I necessarily passed in front of a building on which the large noticeboard was displayed with the posters of the film being shown in a red light cinema. The images of the naked actresses with their breasts in the wind had their nipples covered by two tiny stars. At the time,, the same ones who censor thoughts and words today, they shouted with scandal at the clerical-Christian hypocrisy.

And so, to avoid the outlawing ofhully gully, Italianized into «alligali», the text was promptly re-educated in this way:

On the African continent

at the foot of Kilimanjaro

there is a population of black men

who invented many dances

the most famous is the Hully Gully

We are the Watussi,

The very tall black men

Every three steps,

Let's do six metres

After all, it's well known: There are plenty of sites and blogs on the internet dedicated to blasphemy and vilification of Christianity, of Catholicism in particular, all obviously within the legitimate "right" of thought, of speech and expression. However, it is enough to write the word "n*gro" for more alarms to be triggered than would ever be triggered by walking out of the Vatican Perfumery with a package of perfume from which the shop assistant forgot to remove the anti-shoplifting device.. But let's gloss over it and proceed with other songs with a high and dangerous racist and discriminatory content.

The term «zing@ro» is today considered derogatory and offensive to a large part of the Roma and Sinti communities, as well as several human rights organizations. Which is why the ax of re-education did not spare even Iva Zanicchi and Umberto Tozzi. The famous one Zing@ra by Iva Zanicchi, with which he won the Sanremo Festival 1969, today it is called Rom:

Take this hand Roma

tell me what fate I will have

talk about my love, I won't be afraid

that's all I want from you

Same exact fate for the song Zing@ro by Umberto Tozzi, also renamed Rom:

Rom, I want to live like you

go wherever I want, not like me

and when you find an open space in the city

assemble the carousel and the disc from a year ago

Because Zanicchi's song and Tozzi's today they are called both Rom, to avoid creating confusion in the SIAE archives they were respectively cataloged as Rommiva e Romtozzi.

It's not clear how Marco Masini is, with his Nice bitch, was able to escape a life sentence in a hard prison regime (art. 41-bis, comma 2, of the penitentiary system). A punishment to which Jo Squillo, who sang Violent@mi on the subway, she escaped only because she was a woman. Try to imagine a male singer in Squillo's place who had praised sexual violence in a rock song.

Where do these reflections come from?? From my last article (see who), of which I had to quickly change the title a few minutes after publishing it, because I was telling you about the "New Orleans niggers" who sang When the Saints Go Marching In and who out of prudence have become "slaves", as the directives indicate woke. I therefore note that a century and a half after the abolition of slavery, culture woke she managed to put them back in chains in the name of political correctness.

Historical filmography fares no better. The “culture” woke, regardless of pornography, even violent, which overwhelms us and which any minor accesses from a simple mobile phone, he found nothing better to do than intervene Mary Poppins. In February 2024 the British Board of Film Classification, the British film classification body, he made it go from «U» (Universal), suitable for everyone, a «PG» (Parental Guidance), recommended viewing with the presence of an adult for minors. The reason: in the film Admiral Boom uses the term "Hottentot" twice (hottentots), a historical and derogatory word used by Dutch settlers to describe the indigenous peoples of southern Africa. In the context of the film, the character uses it to refer to chimney sweeps with soot-stained faces. Obviously no minor with a mobile phone is required to do so Parental Guidance to watch violent porn: the problem is Mary Poppins.

I conclude with a leap back twenty years, when I lived in an international priestly house in Castel di Guido, at the gates of Rome. We were all ready to leave for San Paolo Fuori le Mura, where we would have participated in some priestly ordinations. Only two Ivorian brothers were missing, late. At a certain point I said: «Maybe I should go and call the two n*gri brothers». The rector took me back immediately: «Don't use that term, it's called "colored"". He hadn't finished his sentence when the two Ivorians emerged from the corridor, laughing: they had heard everything. I addressed them with the utmost solemnity: "Dear brothers, I officially inform you that from today you are no longer black, but in colour". Father Mathias' unmistakable metallic laughter exploded. Unforgettable - I say this incidentally - when he sang the Hi Regina: with that voice he gave shivers. Father Mathias turned to the rector and clarified: "We, in Ivory Coast, when we talk about you we say "white people". Not "men without color"".

To those who want to delve deeper into the madness of political correctness and "culture" woke, Allow me to recommend my latest book, released a few months ago and titled, not by chance, Freedom denied. We fared much better in the times of the so-called clerical-Christian hypocrisy.
