Dj Aniceto: “Brawl in discos also caused by TV series seen during lockdown”

“When similar misfortunes happen, but especially when young people risk their lives perhaps for too much alcohol or for an extra look, we all have our faults, from parents to the state”. He says this to the Adnkronos Dj Aniceto, commenting on the three disputes that took place on Saturday evening: one in a disco in Bisceglie (Bari), another outside a discopub in Aulla (Massa-Carrara), which saw the stab wound of two young people , and a third in Brescia where, after an accident, a 32-year-old was attacked. “Fun is no longer what it used to be – says the DJ, one of the most committed to social issues, a new generation expert and former member of the ‘National Council of Experts and Operators’ for the department for anti-drug policies at Palazzo Chigi – Many young people think that you no longer have fun if you don’t get drunk, if you don’t get high, if you don’t turn around armed. Today’s kids are sick of protagonism, they are influenced by TV, and the status symbol to proudly show off to their girlfriend or the pack can be a line of cocaine, a knife, a gun, a brass knuckles. “” It’s a generation that likes to touch danger every day and the pandemic has exacerbated all this, creating confusion and feeding the kids in lockdown of violent TV series. It would take greater control by the publishers of the various streaming platforms and adequate laws but in this period of coronavirus and major crisis, asking for greater attention to the world and the places that the very young go to is like asking for a tax reduction. The discos have just been reopened and even if the owner wanted to select the clientele (the green pass is not enough to divide the good from the bad) – he concludes – he would see himself loaded with many of those complaints for discrimination that between the two surely would prefer to be closed by the commissioner. Then there is no point in closing a nightclub if you don’t change people’s heads ”.
