As Stephanie Kirchgaessner wrote on the Guardian, Giorgetti\u2019s cake \u201cwas decorated with two SS bolts, as they are known, which are derived from Hitler\u2019s paramilitary Schutzstaffel (SS) and are considered neo-Nazi and white supremacist symbols.\u201d At the center, there was the fascist symbol, framed in chocolate. <\/p>\n<p>Not only was the idea of this cake decoration horrible, but the cake was barely criticized considering that as the vice-president of the Veneto legislature and a member of Forza Italia, Mr. Giorgetti is a public figure, not a private citizen. On his Facebook page, he said that it was simply a \u201cplayful gesture by old comrades and friends at a private party.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf the publication of the photo has hurt the sensitivity of someone &#8211; he wrote &#8211; I\u2019m sorry and I apologize. It wasn\u2019t my intention to do so,\u201d he declared. However, he has no intention either of resigning or feeling ashamed. Maybe because, as quoted by the Guardian, he thinks that Mussolini \u201chad modernized Italy and was \u2018fine\u2019, apart from his alliance with Adolf Hitler and the adoption of race laws during the country\u2019s fascist era.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Daniela Gross Would you like a birthday cake with Nazi and fascist symbols?
