Professor Orsini’s face is a bit like that
In autumn 2024, many former critics had to realize that Professor Orsini’s analyzes on the war in Ukraine had always been very spot-on. Orsini’s conflictual relationship with the mammasantissima of mainstream information recalls a funny scene (here) Of Three Men and a Legby Aldo Giovanni and Giacomo.
«Does it hurt if I touch here?», asked the doctor, feeling the abdomen of Giacomo, admitted to the emergency room due to an illness. The patient yelped in pain. Aldo, Giacomo’s brother-in-law and colleague in the “Brugola paradise” hardware store, intervened with unlikely unscrupulousness: “Doctor, why don’t we give him an intravenous sedative, like 4 cc of Placibio”.
The luminary froze him and scolded him, but then gave the nurse the same instructions: «Miss, prepare me a sedative. So, let’s see… mm, yes: four cc of Placibio intravenously.”
Aldo/Orsini mimed the extemporaneous interpretation of an exasperated and pained Cassandra, but by now she had gotten used to it, and also suggested a diagnosis: «In my opinion it’s renal colic».
The doctor threatened to give up his coat to the reckless Aldo and leave, but then issued the exact same verdict: «Dear Mr. Giacomo. Here we have a nice renal colic.”
Aldo remained silent, but his irresistible mimicry already said it all. Someone tweeted “game, set, match”. Others, not even under torture, would have given Orsini the credit for having always been right.
Alessandro Orsini is an esteemed professor and writer, graduated in Sociology. His method, which he obsessively defines as “scientific”, seems more banally to include the entire gray scale, rather than just the black & white of those who, in this fratricidal war, believed they saw a clear separation of good from evil.
