- After years of promising to clean up Italy and restore its former glory, Giorgia Meloni has been reincarnated as DUSTY MELONI, a vintage straw broom with rigid bristles that sweep in only one direction: far right.
Now residing in a Roman trattoria, Dusty spends her days aggressively pushing dirt into corners where it becomes someone else’s problem. She’s excellent at surface-level cleaning while the building’s structural issues slowly crumble. The floorboards are rotting, but they’re dust free.
Her signature move? Sweeping immigrant crumbs off the doorstep while ignoring the native mess piling up in the kitchen. She’s particularly vigorous about removing anything that doesn’t fit her vision of “traditional Italian floor debris”—only local dust allowed, preferably from the Mussolini era when brooms had proper family values.
Dusty has strong opinions about which corners deserve attention. Progressive corners? Swept vigorously. Corporate corners where the real filth accumulates? Mysteriously untouched. She once spent an afternoon polishing a nationalist slogan carved into the floorboards.
The irony? She promised to sweep away the old guard and corruption. Instead, she became another tool sweeping real problems under the rug while performing theatrical cleaning for the cameras. Same dirt, different broom.
Late at night, Dusty leans in her corner, bristles worn from performative sweeping, dreaming of when brooms knew their place and floors knew who was boss.
