    Gods, I wish this was the case here in Sweden. Our nazi government is happy to bring us closer.

        Alright, what would you call SD if not Nazis? If one is willing to work with Nazis, then you’re accepting of and approving their ideology.

        Ergo, you’re a Nazi.

        Edit: it’s worth noting that this “you” is a general you, not meaning you specifically.

          10 years ago SD was called nazis too due to their politics, now S, M, KD, L even C, conduct more strict immigration politics than SD did 10 years ago. So that would make 78% of Swedens population Nazis.

          Do you seriously believe that’s the case? I don’t. Every party you dont like isn’t nazis.

            If there’s something you can admire SD for, it’s that they’ve always stuck to their roots. Unfortunately, their roots is literal nazism so it’s not something admirable.

            I’m not arguing that S, M, KD, L, and C aren’t.

            S is losing support because they’re abandoning their core values and moving further right.

            C was lead for years by that Ayn Rand fangirl.

            M, KD, and L are all super happy to partner up with SD, so yeah.


            There are no good parties among the main parliamentary ones. V and MP are the most humane, and at the very least work against nazism, but they have their own fucked up quirks.

        Sweden has long been the most right-wing of the Nordic countries  – at least when it comes to economics

        We’re alright in a lot of ways, and incredibly conservative in others.

        We have a war on drugs; it’s the one thing all our politicians agree on. We also have some of the highest death from overdoses in Europe. Meanwhile, they’re all in parliament coking it up. See, drugs were measured in the wastewater from parliament, and none of them want to be tested.

        Chat Control? It was spawned by the Social Democrats, a lady called Ylva Johansson. You have Sweden to thank for that.

        Our current goverment is vowing to double the amount of surveillance cameras by 2030, and our police is expanding their use of Palantir.

        Nazis? The Norwegians still are a bit sore about the fact that we let nazi Germany use our railroads to invade them. Fair, I feel.

        Speaking of the nazis! We were super into eugenics until around the time Germany lost WWII. Back in 2013 we got rid of the eugenics law that required trans people to be sterilised. Oh yeah, the second largest party in parliament right now, Sverigedemokraterna, were against that.

        Sweden was nice because we had a solid welfare bought by the blood shed when the military shot demonstrating workers during the great depression, and the ensuing decades of pro-worker social democratic politics. The modern social democrats are abandoning their roots in favour of sucking up to the bourgeoisie, and as such the entire left block is losing out.

        That or a vast portion of Swedes are actual nazis because they keep fucking backing the nazi party.

            The other month, when me and my dog went home from the vet, we took a path we haven’t done in a while. Passed through an area where we used to live some years back, after I fled an abusive family member.

            It’s a miljonprojekt, not a massive one though. It is one of the larger ones of the area, and because it’s historically been cheap, that’s where a lot of immigrants have ended up. It’s a nice area though, and some money has been put into improving both the buildings and the surrounding area past few years. It’s also where a fairly large elderly care home is located.

            When passing by the nearby church, there was a large fuckoff mobile surveillance tower right on the opposite street. I froze in my tracks, seeing it was incredibly uncomfortable. I’ve lived in the area for well over a decade, and never felt as unsafe as when I saw that.
