Antonio Gramsci met a pretty tragic end. Jailed by the Mussolini regime in Italy for 11 years and eventually just withered away from illness. Died too young just like so many victims of fascism.

Western media still hate him because his theory (if they remember him that is), one Italian fucker even wrote a book that Gramsci turned marxism into fascism and thus every modern marxist is a fascist. Funnily enough they seem to recognise importance of Gramsci theory more than ultras and dogmatists.
