===Aftermath (1968–1972)=== By 1972, [[Gianfranco Sanguinetti]] and [[Guy Debord]] were the only two remaining members of the SI. Working with Debord, in August 1975, Sanguinetti wrote a pamphlet titled ''Rapporto veridico sulle ultime opportunità di salvare il capitalismo in Italia'' (''The Real Report on the Last Chance to Save Capitalism in Italy''),<ref>{{cite web |author=u2r2h |url=http://tangibleinfo.blogspot.com/2010/08/gianfranco-sanguinetti-full-text-of.html |title=Complete (translated) texts |publisher=Tangibleinfo.blogspot.com |date=13 August 2010 |access-date=11 October 2013 |archive-date=13 October 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131013162433/http://tangibleinfo.blogspot.com/2010/08/gianfranco-sanguinetti-full-text-of.html |url-status=live }}</ref> which (inspired by [[Bruno Bauer]]) purported to be the cynical writing of "Censor", a powerful industrialist. The pamphlet argued that the ruling class of Italy supported the [[Piazza Fontana bombing]] and other covert, [[false flag]] mass slaughter for the higher goal of defending the capitalist status quo from communist influence. The pamphlet was mailed to 520 of Italy's most powerful individuals. It was received as genuine and powerful politicians, industrialists and journalists praised its content. After reprinting the tract as a small book, Sanguinetti revealed himself to be the true author.
