Explain me why in Italy blasphemous profanity is so common and even seen as a funny thing by many people, especially youngsters

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_profanity#Blasphemous_profanity

>Nowadays, the most common kind of blasphemous profanity involves the name of God, Christ or the Virgin Mary combined with an insult, the most used being porco ('pig') as in Porco Dio ('God is a pig') or bestia ('beast') as in Dio bestia ('God is a beast') or porca Madonna ('the Virgin Mary is a pig').

>Common blasphemous profanity in Italian are: porco Dio, Dio cane (lit. God is a dog), Dio merda, Dio bestia, Madonna puttana, porco il Cristo, Dio stronzo, etc

It a dialectal thing really. But it's not a youngster thing, everyone says it

>>2846233
No explanation dude, it's just as it is.

The eternal venetians are to blame for this. In southern Italy no one says those things because almost everyone there is a real catholic.

>why is being edgy funny among youngsters
In your entire life did you ever leave the basement?

Not true

I'm surprised Anglos don't have it, you are all so edgy yet never came up with profanity?
>>
>>2848042
New generations say it, though I agree it's much more common in the north, I often even hear adults saying it here in Milan while in the South it's mostly young people and they don't say nearly as much

>especially youngsters

It's actually very popular with the elderly too, especially in the north-east. It's just a way to let off anger.

Tbh in the Littoral region of Slomemeia the blasphemous profanities are present only in the older generation, I've yet to see a youngster use it.

It's like how muslims say Allahu Akbar and Akhbar means mouse in Jewspeak. So to the Jews they are saying "God is a mouse"
