OT: Sweden: anarchy spreads outside Stockholm (2023 Update)

Those and the cowboy outfit don't seem irrelevant w.r.t. CD.

To me CD smells like a Walter Mitty character or a simple false-flag troll.

Of course he won't read this, since he has put on his Zaphod Beeblebrox sunglasses by. blocking me.

Not really: a dozen malcontents doing malicious mischief is not 'anarchy', it's just crime. The country isn't ruined, it isn't a good reason to marginalize foreigners, or evict tens of thousands of innocent refugees from yet another land. Prosecute the vandals and move on...

A fine country isn't so easily ruined. Arson is suspected in a few fires in California that have done more damage than these torched cars, and there's no 'anarchy' cry over that. . Heck, a few Russian agents could instigate such a disturbance, in order to create a destructive political dialogue: that's happened before (look at Ukraine, or Ossetia). Don't help them.

...deporting everyone not legally here.

Not so easily proven.

The difference is that these "malcontents" have the complete support of one of the two political parties and the major media.

Hah! You've been hired by the Russians, haven't you?

Or, do you really know that a malcontent in Sweden has a major Swedish political party behind him?

It's not the malcontents who have any political support, it's the huge mass of legitimate refugees (which happens to include the usual proportion of m entally disturbed and psychopathic characters, not that fleeing from a war zone helps anybody's peace of mind).

Krw is being his usual simple-minded and gullible right-wing self. Even Cur sitor Doom has more sense.

There should be some kind of newsgroup rule that before you can shitpost you have to actually post a circuit you designed yourself, given that this is s.e.d, after all. To my knowledge CD had never met this standard

Oh no!!!

It's truly amazing that the leftists are so afraid of the Rooskies, today, when yesterday they were best buds (and will be tomorrow).

No, but nothing the Europeons do is, in any way surprising.

It's truly amazing that krw has never learned that the Russian communists w ere deadly enemies of democratic socialists, and always had been - George O rwell's "Homage to Catalonia" and "Animal Farm" were all about that. It sta rted around 1871 when the international socialists chucked out Karl Marx an d his cronies because their ideas about the "leading role" of the party wer e undemocratic and likely to lead to tyranny.

Putin and his oligarch's couldn't give a stuff about anybody's politics - e xcept in as far as some political figure (like Trump) can be expected to sc rew up some of their rivals.

olitical party behind him?

Nothing surprises krw because he is convinced that he knows it all already, and is dumb enough to think that what he is being told that doesn't fit hi s bizarre misconceptions is mere fake news.

He wants you to learn from fiction so you agree with him.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Sorry, I was skimming the thread to fast and didn't realize what/who I was reading. Then when I started laughing I just couldn't resist.

Orwell was a bitter troll who wrote "1984" to scare old ladies. Nice to see at least someone knows it's a work of fiction. a BAD work of fiction.

2-dimensional stock characters, predictable plot, the "world" he describes is absurd nothing makes any logical sense at all, everyone in the book is evil, gullible, or retarded.

Oh, my bad. He was actually talking about Homage to Catalonia, which is a little better. I guess I just dislike "1984" so much I couldn't help myself.

Only two?

As far as I know in 50+ years I've not had one occur in a suburb I lived in, then again in Australia we have those oppressive gun laws. ;)

"Homage to Catalonia" wasn't fiction. "Animal Farm" was fiction, but of a particularly pointed and satirical sort. Even jurb might be able to learn from it.

The joke is on you.

You missed the point. Orwell was effectively re-writing Koestler's "Darkness at Noon", which he'd reviewed in 1941.

This is why people like you are in my killfile. I have never posted anything which could be interpreted as prejudicial towards "people who aren't white" as you put it. The colour of a person is of no importance nor even relevance to me. I only judge others (if I absolutely must) according to how educated and civilised they are and that is the sum total of it.

The absurdity is krw's ignorance. He's too convinced of his own infallibility to notice, or - to put it more accurately - he's incapable of imagining that he might be wrong.

You would like to think that, but while you aren't as incorrigibly ignorant as krw, you are still a long way short of unlearning what the US media has been trying to teach you for more than a century now.

Communists pretended to be socialist, but they didn't like real - as in dem ocratic - socialism, which not only sold their message about being helpful to the working classes, but also delivered on it.

There were communist party members in the US trade union movement, but that doesn't make the trade union movements intrinsically communist, and in fac t they got rooted out as their political subservience to the interests of U SSR became better understand and more clearly perceived, mostly in the deca de or so after WW2.

The US press has always tried to demonise socialism by emphasising what com munist influence they could find - and anarchist influence before that - bu t it's a nonsense.
