It was invented by an Italian fascist who was deeply deeply angered at baguettes, a symbol of the French, being so popular. Ciabatta was designed to be rustic and traditional feeling for that reason

What’s your source that Arnaldo Cavallari is a fascist?

All I’ve heard is rally car driver turned baker who wanted to compete with baguettes for the local sandwich market.

Yeah, I went looking for any source of information outlining Arnaldo Cavallari's political views, and couldn't find anything at all. The closest I got were a couple sources saying he invented ciabatta specifically because he hated the French, but the only reasoning they gave for that assumption was that he said he disliked the rising popularity of baguettes. Hardly seems like enough information to nonchalantly call him a fascist. We've got enough extremists running around - we don't need to be vilifying regular people when major world leaders are displaying fascistic tendencies right now.
