You would have to move to Italy and live there for a certain number of years. For you it is probably 10 years continuous residency although as your ancestor was Italian it might be much shorter. To go and live there you would need a visa - a work visa or maybe something like an elective visa (private income so you’re not a burden on the sate), or an investor visa (buying residency).

If you were to have a child while there I don’t know what that would mean. It probably means they would be eligible and you would have the right to stay and look after them. But you would need to carefully assess what that would mean for the child’s statehood and identity.

Depends on how committed you are to the change.

Here’s the Reddit sub on the issue of citizenship by ancestry: https://www.reddit.com/r/juresanguinis/

Italy has just changed it’s rules on citizenship. You now need to prove you had an Italian parent or grandparent in order to be eligible. Before, there was no generational cut off.

Trump isn’t fascism, it’s authoritarian sure but he’s in it for his own criminal financial gain. For his self enrichment he mobilises the fascist tools of nationalism and division but it isn’t the rigorous ideology of state and society of fascism that he promotes: It’s more of a kleptocratic autocracy. Trump will destabilize the U.S. economy for his own profit, likely shifting reserves into $Trump crypto while China and Russia pick up the pieces. So moving to Italy is an excellent idea. It’s beautiful, the weather’s good, you might well have problems finding well paid work but you’ll eat well - what more could you want!

If I understand this correctly this is not about not giving Ukraine munitions it is about not giving the EU money to buy munitions to give to Ukraine. Each country in NATO is sovereign and pays for its own military. Each nation gives equipment and ordinance to Ukraine. There’s no change here (apart from the US saying they’re no longer supporting Ukraine). For the EU the future pooling resources will be developed within a sovereign framework so giving money to the EU for equipment now is like removing military sovereignty. Given that military procurement is rife with corruption and inflated costs, and the EU have no framework, or military strategy, or mandate for a EU army, you can understand why countries are reluctant to give money to the EU rather than giving to Ukraine directly.

In US English Ground is used to signify Earth. But if you said Ground in England people would understand what you meant.

Each country developed its own plug system in Europe. This looks like a French CEE 7 type plug - its asymmetrical fixed earth point creates wiring compatibility problems where the poles are wired differently in different countries. A lot of domestic appliances now use the German Schuko plug type as an answer to this problem (the earth is on the circumference edge pins)

Proton works well, I’m not sure why it took them a couple of weeks to move from google to Proton, I think it took me an hour to setup mail, calendar and Drive on Proton’s free tier.
