Yeah this. Also FKP Scorpio can just start a new festival somewhere else under a different name, with new people and still look like the good guys.
It's cynical as gently caress but at the same time it's still a strong statement.
it's mostly teens at bråvalla so who cares if it stays or goes.

Regarding "utsatta områden". In my opinion it's a loving joke, I live and have worked in a couple of these neighboorhoods and sure they have problems, but they share a lot of the problems with the kids from where i grew up(bumfuck nowhere).
And yes ofc being part of a minority adds it's certain flavour to it all and its own set of struggles.
But when it comes to the media, they make our homes look like some favela or bullshit, while they never specify what the problem really is, or how to deal with it(in terms of legislations etc) Regardless if they are right or liberal.
Dont get me wrong the police specify what statistics/symptoms they look at, but the media seems to lack a critical view and/or lacking the resources/interest to dig deeper.
Like sure there is drug dealing etc(same as in swedish majority areas), but what else is there? protection schemes? brothels?
Where I live now(it's on the stupid list) is probably the calmest and safest area I have lived in, im like the only one out late doing drugs and being drunk.

Legalizing cannabis would be a huge step in the right direction. I’ll bet the vast majority of these killings are gangs trying to control that market.

Yeah no the vietnamese thing is probably wrong, there was a bust a few years ago when some gang bought houses in småland or something.
I can almost guarantee you that Vietnamese criminal networks sure aint the main suppliers. It would be a stupid move if you look at how much attention a couple of vietnamese/asian boys would garner in the swedish countryside.

Also lol never trust anyone in customs when it comes to drugs. :doh:

Annie Lööf now wants to take a page from the NY police, and start using broken window theory...a theory that led to violent cops having their violence sanctioned, and teens getting harassed. Only this time! it will work! since we are swedes, and absolutely best at everything! always! forever! :eng101:

Well people should drive less anyway. :) (Just kidding)

The thing i find most annoying about the latest burnings is that the cops talks so much poo poo, someone should tell them to shut the gently caress up.

They say it aint political when expressen got a video, from someone in contact with the gently caress ups that clearly states that it is. Like what the gently caress do the cops know, I live in one of these areas and it's very hard to feel like the cops got mine and my neighbors best interest at heart.
like its a No-go zone, they are just criminals, they just want to destroy etc etc. Cops dont know anything about us and our struggles and frustration.
Not trying to apologize for burning cars but we are really treated like poo poo by em.

In regards to socialism discussion. The social democrats in sweden was one of the founders of the socialist international...they were part of the socialist conference in Copenhagen 1915, etc. I get that meanings of words change, but I dont understand why people look towards communist nations/parties when they want to define socialism, since the communists is a whole other thing.

Nah thats not it, I dont argue that sweden is like "the one" socialist state, or that welfare is unique to socialism or whatever, my argument is that socialism is defined by socialist parties as the socialdemocrats in contrast to people trying to define it based on communist nations.

Also socialist ideology and practice are 2 different things in reality. Just my 2 cents. I guess it's meaningful if you want a more nuanced discussion about what socialism can be.(not communism)



I might have misread you, im a bit tired. gently caress now I have edited this even more, and im stupid, dont even get what in my text you are replying to.

Yeah and there will be a reform of the negotiation part between tenants and landlords allowing more freedom. What the hell that means is anybodys guess, but I think it's more than just higher rent on the new apartments.

You'll have to remember that V in Gothenburg basically had this choice (voting through an S budget with no influence) and opted for telling them to gently caress off instead. For reference, I didn't like that decision but it stemmed from the same feeling of being taken for granted.

To draw similar parallels, V Malmö stormed out of its municipal block with S+MP last term due to aggressive cut-downs to public services which S refused to compromise on.
