Scale of controversy by video by Ítalo Omegna: PS, PDG and Senator Bianchi demand responsibilities

The article discusses a controversy sparked by a video featuring Ítalo Omegna, a member of the National Libertarian Party (PNL) and parliamentary advisor, who made inappropriate comments about children and those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The video led to Omegna's removal from the Mises Cono Sur Institute and his resignation as legislative advisor to Congressman Hans Marowski. His own party distanced itself from his remarks through a statement. The Socialist Party (PS) and other groups condemned the video, calling it repulsive and morally unacceptable, and accused the PNL of hypocrisy regarding issues like abortion rights. They demanded accountability from the PNL leadership, including President Johannes Kaiser, for their silence. The People's Party (PDG) criticized the delayed action by Marowski, who publicly praised Omegna despite the controversy.
