“ The Thiel lectures are being organized jointly by the Vincenzo Gioberti Cultural Association — which aims to renew Italian political culture and make “the restoration of Catholicism as the cornerstone of national identity” — and the Cluny Institute, which is based at the Catholic University of America in Washington.“

Oh hey, end world capitalism is trying Catholic Christian nationalism in Italy. I don’t know enough history, but did Mussolini try this?
