I had a small assignment regarding the founding of Stockholm in my History-class, the city Stockholm was first mentioned in some letter from 1252 or something, but it was founded before that. As to when, I'm not sure we know.
I've also heard of the "stock" theory for what it's worth.

Seeing posts on Facebook asking people to vote in a poll to ask the government to take responsibility for the attack a few days back. Which left me scratching my head. Responsibility for what? Security policy? The Swedish policy is about the same as the rest of Europe's​. Immigration policy? Up until a month or so before the attack he wasn't being sought for any kind of crime anywhere, though his deportation to Sweden is kind of weird. Like are people imagining S planned all this or do they not understand what responsibility means?

They've broken their own brains.

What is going on in Sweden?


131 dead, 520 wounded. 1500 shootings (over 7 years). Bad aim for sure but still, what is rotten in Sweden? Why does this happen?
Is this a result of beautiful multi culture or is there another reason? We don't have this in Norway or Denmark so I find it kinda strange.

ofc, also gently caress sweden :-D

Okay I exaggerated a bit with one million.

As a sidenote, in the Swedish youth school we have two forms of the subject
”Swedish”, Swedish (svenska, sve) and Swedish as a second language (svenska som andraspråk, sva).

The content of the courses are/should be the same, with the latter one having a more comparative style of teaching. For example when you’re teaching grammar a typical sva-assignment would be like ”In what ways are Swedish grammar and your mother tongues grammar similar and in what ways are they different?”

Is it the same way in i.e. Denmark?

Edit: I tried to do some research, is ”Dansk som andetsprog” similar?

It wasn't really weird as a kid, we understood it. My parents were home cooking my own dinner and I'd just have to run back home to eat dinner, I didn't want to eat two dinners, my parents didn't wanna cook food for a kid that had already eaten and I didn't wanna eat my friends parents weird looking food anway. Why would I eat here when I gotta go soon anyway to eat dinner at home? If it was a sleepover or something, it's different.

This is another thing most of the world probably don't get, that kids could (stil can) and would, where this is a thing, basically run to other peoples houses on their own all the drat time and there's not been any formal invitations and the kids live close enough that they will hear their parents bellowing that it's dinner time. We also had dinner times to be back home for.

Yes, this is exactly how it was for me. Why the hell would anyone want to sit down with their friends family and eat their weird food. I mean this was Sweden in the 90's. Yeah I loved eating clumped up makaroner and ketchup while being forced to make small talk with my friends dad Lars / Bosse / Göran... We truly are monsters for denying people that experience...

As far as people supporting putin/russia; outside this thread, I have only met one person who is mostly on the putin side since the war started, and he is a sad, conspiracy believing, nye borgerlige voting, mega dumbo. I think it’s probably different at different work places though.

The only person I’ve met IRL with a pro-Russian bias is the hyper edgelord at my work, neatly adding ”Putin is good” to his repertoir alongside ”feminism has gone too far”, ”the muslims are bleeding the Swedish tax payer dry”, and ”if you’re getting handouts from the government you should be forced to work outside picking trash”.

He’s like every bad opinion from 15 years ago rolled into one and I think he has trouble keeping up with the newer ones. Right now he’s on a crusade against the ”hen”-pronoun.

I’m glad he’s also a teacher 👍
