My favorite part was how it had some browns being embarassed by the hipster's tolerance at the end. It's not racist if we show a brown agreeing with us, right? It's like how the KKK has a public statement that there's niggers and there's cool black people and they only hate the former. You drat leftie loons can't argue with that.

E: Also, isn't NRK supposed to be better than this? I dunno how it works there but it feels like something over which a public broadcasting channel should get poo poo.

NRK isn't as politicized and left wing as our dear SVT, it's hilarious that they did a documentary Hjernevask about what bullshit gender science is that SVT has refused to show. It would be nice to have some balance in the public service like they have in Norway, but seeing what poo poo the entire "public service" is in Sweden it should just be sold out.

It certainly is but the bullshit that we call " gender science" here in Sweden goes against other hard sciences like biology and evolutionary psychology. You should really watch Hjernevask and see what kind of bullshit it is, but I guess you don't like things that go against your politics!

Sure, it can be seen as a "hey look, left-wingers are silly" piece just as Kringkastingsrådet asked for, but it's not necessarily a "left-wingers are silly because all brown people are evil" piece. It touches on how male voices might throw women under the bus to suit their political worldview for sure, but only immature idiots with their context from 4chan would see that as "cucking" as if women were objects to be stolen. It also points out how some left-wing hipsters might very well have no clue, as evidenced by the hipster in question interacting with the Sikh sitting next to him.

As a left-wing hipster myself I don't find the piece funny, but there seems to be enough ambiguity that I believe they're trying for a kind of Charlie Hebdo anti-conformist thing rather than making outright right-wing racist jokes.

Or the documantary in question could be bunk and SVT made a good call in maintaining some journalistic standards. Since the only evidence we have WRT its quality is your say-so, this seems at least as likely as some vast, leftwing conspiracy.

Besides that it's pretty funny how you immediately fall back on preemptive accusations of dogmatic bias in others while ranting about how SVT is a den of reds.

I would not in a million years expect that joke from the kind of person who would produce that video, but I even saw a couple of YouTube comments come to the same conclusion. I'll grant that that is indeed the joke and that I genuinely underestimated the nuance present in this lovely racist video.
Well, I imagine the people behind it might be slightly more aware than your regular racist, enough to be aware of the relatively common problem of Sikhs being targets of anti-Muslim violence. Like they have to occasionally have to say "hey, don't be a dick, that dude isn't Muslim, so don't blame him for terrorism!" to their dumber brethren, to convince themselves they're not racist, just realistic about the dangers of Islam. The "tolerant hipster" making the same mistake as "real racists" is of course evidence of him being a kind of racist himself, just seeing every ethnic minority as part of the same unified culture which he has to tolerate, whereas they see things clearly, showing contempt for the primitive followers of the Islamic death cult while respecting* the cultures of peaceful peoples like Sikhs and the like.

How is that relevant? The original source is a state-owned newspaper that is often accused of being too left-wing. Mostly these cartoons have made fun of the right, so it's no surprise that a more ambiguous (or lovely) piece is being re-blogged by assholes. We see a lot of that kind of thing because the state owned outlets are expected to provide a "balanced" range of views (give a voice to everyone), even if those views are pretty lovely. I really do think they're trying to do the Charlie Hebdo thing and being irreverent and edgy leftists, but I'm not denying that the end result is unfunny crap.

If you're referring to this:



"Boko Harams sex slaves are pissed"
"Don't touch our welfare!"

It's them poking fun at the rantings from parties like Front Nationale in France. But then again, thats pretty easy to see. And for you, Tywin, it means that a sex-slavery induced pregnancy is not a voulantary condition with any woman and that these people are not "in it" for the welfare cheque.

That clip on the other hand might as well have been made as a 4chan gif. I don't see alot of leftists defending the sexual harssment in Cologne as "cultural exchanges", it's not even offensive, it's just lame.

Most people cannot afford to have stocks, bonds, trust funds AND loans on a house. if they do have a sizeable chunk of change they plonk it down as a downpayment on their hous to reduce the size of the massive loving loan they need to take from the bank (at admittadly low interest...for now).

Flashback posted:

Jag vänder mig mot den onyanserade bilden av vänstern i tråden. Anti-globalismen och protektionismen finns kvar inom rörelsen, vilket jag exemplifierade ovan med en ledare i Proletären om behovet av förstärkta gränskontroller. Greider har knappast hittat en väg ur paradigmet utan börjar snarare återgå till den ursprungliga ideologin inom den vänsterfalang han själv representanter.
Redan för flera år sedan beskrev Rasmus Fleischer i Arena-krönikan "Nationalvänstern - så funkar den" schismen som nu intensifieras inom vänstern mellan protektionisterna och det Ung Vänster då kallade "den verklighetsfrånvända chicvänstern". Texten är skriven före SDs inträde i riksdagen och anledningen till att nationalvänstern legat lågt sedan dess är förstås risken för brunstämpel då dess retorik faktiskt är snarlik SDs.
"Övertygelsen stärktes av nejsegern i EMU-omröstningen som försatte förbundsledningen i en märklig völkisch-eufori; pressmeddelanden skickades ut där ordet »folk« förekom i nästan varje mening och motsättningen mellan arbete och kapital var som bortblåst till förmån för en retorik där »svenska folket« sagt ett »medborgerligt Nej – en folklig skrevspark« mot »etablissemanget« och »den verklighetsfrånvända chicvänstern«.
Vänsterpartiets ungdomsförbund gav även en förklaring till varför man anser att demokrati är omöjlig utanför nationalstatens ram: »Det finns inget europeiskt folk, ingen gemensam europeisk debatt, ingen gemensam folklig kultur«."
http://www.magasinetarena.se/2004/02...s-_funkar_den/
Fleischer, som själv är (uppenbart) kritisk till "nationalvänstern" tar även upp Per Albins hårdföra nationalism i den klassiska valskriften "Sverige åt svenskarna – svenskarna åt Sverige!"
Nationalvänstern lever men hålls tillbaka av det bisarra politiska debattklimatet i Sverige där allt utgår ifrån SD och Björns Söders senaste tweets. Umgås man med "chicvänstern" som även dominerar MSM blir det dålig stämning om man för samma ursprungliga vänsterresonemang som ledarskribenterna i Proletären.
Den motsättningen är inte ny utan fanns redan mellan SAPs arbetarpionjärer och dåtidens medelklass som insåg de politiska karriärmöjligheterna när socialdemokratin etablerades och expanderade.
På samma sätt som MSMs chicvänster idag utmålar nationalvänstern, inte minst inom fackföreningsrörelsen, som bakåtsträvande, normativa, vita kränkta män försökte vänstermedelklassen fostra de burdusa grovhuggna arbetarna av August Palm-modell till en mer klädsam retorik.
Motsättningen fanns också inom 68-rörelsen när den gräsrökande medelklassvänstern i plyschoveraller hamnade i konflikt med arbetare i blåställ som inte uppskattade skådespelet av experimentella kollektivbohemer sponsrade av pappas pengar.
Nationalvänstern befinner sig nu i den märkliga situationen att delar av deras retorik har kapats av sverigedemokrater som t.o.m. hyllar folkhemmet men vars socialkonservatism och suspekta rötter gör dem omöjliga som alternativ. Här någonstans sitter Greider och halsar pilsner och undrar vad fan som hände när en ung rasifierad kvinna i en annan ledare hånar vita gubbar och samtidigt kräver ett tack för besväret.
Den bästa beskrivningen av denna vänsterns vånda just nu är Forssbergs ovannämnda ledare "Migrationsdebatten blir svår för vänstern".

Expelling failed asylum seekers is hardly a new policy.

We have a massive influx of opportunity seekers along with asylum seekers. The former are not sent back to their deaths but rather to a poor shithole where they will not reach their full potential. This might be bad in and of itself, but it is not quite as barbaric as you would paint it.

Sending people to their death would be a breech of immigration law. We only send certain people to their death when the CIA asks us nicely or when they are gay or activists or we feel like it

genetic sex is actually not that difficult to fit into a binary system here. it is a perfectly legitimate term to use, though it's obviously tiresome to take the side of someone who considers evolutionary psychology a "hard science"

the genetic definition is that if one has a Y chromosome, one is male. this does not change in the case of XYYs, or Klinefelter's syndrome. a better example is the viability of apparently female silent-Y individuals as shown in an episdoe of hit show house, MD. regardless, research is done on the basis of genetic sex, and this is both productive and purposeful - though it obviously is not necessarily directly applicable to social gender roles and norms, it is by no means entirely disconnected either
