How many revere Mussolini you ask...
Difficult to say. There has always been a small part of the population that is "nostalgic" about him. It is composed mainly by young and yougsters (and they do more damages than good to the Alleanza Nazionale the so called "right" party in Parliament), because of their "political uncorrectness". P.C. is, of course, a "must", as you may well gues, when getting good press/media is concerned. But this, I'd say, is true worldwide. What it is really changing is the different approach to the period. It is becoming politically acceptable to talk about the "ventennio" (the 20 years of Mussolini's ruling) in not completely negative terms. It has become at least acceptable to say that fascism did something good during its 20 years of rule, without being kicked out of the window as a consequence. Mind you: the self appointed kings of political correctness (the left and above all the "die hard" leftist) will never reach this point. Nonetheless a new approach to the period is being seen in the Country.
The calendars are not widespread at all. They are on the market, and this is not new. They have been marketed for years. For sure the calendars displaying the hot girl(s) of the moment are by fare more widespread
Best regards
