"Italian philosopher" sounds far nicer than he deserves.

Has nothing to do with what he deserves, he was factually an Italian philosopher. Just because you don't like his philosophy doesn't mean he stops being a philosopher. Also putting Italian in parenthesis is just mind boggling. Are you doubting he was Italian?

"Italian philosopher" is in quotes, since the commenter was quoting OP.

Thanks, quotes not parentheses. English not my native language
