Can I ask what's the base for your reasoning? Fascism in Italy produced a strong cultural counter-reaction.
I assume you're familiar with the song "Bella Ciao".
That's the most popular example. According to certain sources even pasta carbonara became a dish during the Resistance.
Also, while Mussolini tried to forbid all the music genres coming from abroad, he wasn't truly successful and in Italy the swing genre had flourishing decades.
