evil_bunnY posted:My dude have you talked to a swedish hunter at all, ever? They're loving obsessed with the things. Odd, because that's not my experience at all. Though admittedly I have not talked to people who identify themselves as hunters and who live for the hobby, only people who occasionally hunt as recreation once or twice a year (and then mainly deer size and below), nor have I hunted myself. So I'm open for wolf hating being more common among other, more hardcore, hunters.

Yeah that’ll do it. Most of my bougie colleagues who hunt once or twice a year DGAF but the one guy who’s all about that life better not hear about them or his entire day is ruined.

Our local hunters told the cops to get hosed when it came to tracking and killing wounded animals after traffic accidents, as a way to demonstrate against wolf policy. And now that their licences are being renewed at a glacial pace they're all surprised  You had one job guys. This one thing that guns were good for.

To be fair licensing is glacially slow for everyone, they're not specifically making GBS threads on those guys. It's about 4-5 months wait for a gun license in Stockholm right now. I'm told this is because they are literally three people working on permits in the entire Stockholm region, and they handle ALL permits, not just gun licenses.

Hell World 2018 is happeningquote:The speaker of Sweden's parliament said on Tuesday that he had given the leader of the conservative Moderate party, Ulf Kristersson, a mandate to explore whether he can form a new government within the next fortnight. M+KD all the way. What I find absolutely astounding is that the leader of the biggest party and the biggest bloc wasn't asked to try and form a government. Are L+C voters paying attention to this?

Also it would be a pretty huge gently caress you to a Riksdag who just voted Lövfen out to nominate him. They just voted that they didn't want him, so it makes the most sense to let some other people fail before giving him the chance.

So, Uffe is not going to be statsminister. What's next, Löfven? I guess L or C could deal with him if Uffes brinkmanship pisses them of, but I doubt it. 4 more years like the ones we just had with DÖ-2? Since no one is going to cave it's either that or nyval, both of which is going to make Alliansen pretty foolish. Holy poo poo is S going to hammer ansvar

It's pretty funny that he thinks he can do a Reinfeldt, wasn't that SDs first term in the Riksdag? Also alliansen was still the largest block. To be honest I don't understand why they deposed Löfven if they're not going to actively collaborate with SD. And I really don't think SD is going to settle for anything less than actual influence.

Disposing Stefan was a matter of principle: Twitterchuds hate him and he's just so ugly and non-handsome, can't have that in politics now can we?! SD with influence is a double-edged sword...on the one hand, it'd be a absolute disaster for everything I consider important in a wellfunctioning state; on the other, SD would no longer be able to claim innocence when their policies gobble the country from the inside out. "Jag vet faktiskt inte" can only take you so far, Jimmie.

part of the Thing with modern populism is that you don't really need to deliver much substantive change to the lives of the people who voted for you so long as you're seen to aggressively promote the discourse in which they're interested so you get stuff like FrP effectively abandoning their whole economic policy where it doesn't overlap with H while getting no major change in the asylum system and continually making GBS threads themselves on law and order... and remaining quite level

what these parties actually do doesn't matter much, so long as they're still the only party willing to represent certain segments of the population and don't 'betray the principles' by e.g. making conciliatory noises towards the darkies this is why defunding an actual hate group is controversial to them

"I don't think integration benefits* are too low. On the contrary. If I were to adjust them it would be downward." - Inger Støjberg commenting on study by the Institute for Human Rights showing that tens of thousands of people forego medicine, medical and psychiatric treatment, new clothes and even food to be able to feed their children *That's the official name for the literally halved unemployment benefits for immigrants, refugees and Danes who have lived abroad for an extended period, that contrary to regular benefits does not take into account the recipient's number of children (also, no child benefits for the first six years).

It takes a lot of psychological redecorating to convince yourself voting SD is a reasonable thing to do, and once done it'll take at least as much work to get you to stop voting for them. The party itself can do no wrong to the people in this state. They could even talk well of muslims; all that would show is how humanitarian they are, or something, or maybe they would rationalize it as a camouflage tactic. The only thing they could do to break the spell, so to say, is to fracture. That would force people to reconsider what they actually believe and give them an easy way out. People so deep in that they can be found singing the party's official song "Jimmie Åkesson shalalalalala" would still stick around though. It also doesn't matter if the other parties adopted SD's current policies, all that does is lower the threshold to jump ship, while SD itself will just go to the next level of terrible. Because they don't really have policies. They have slogans. All they want is "SD 20XX". Of course, none of this matters, because politicians are idiots that'll repeat "rasistisk parti med nazistiska rötter" like a goddamn robot instead of maybe bringing up the small detail that SD today intends to abolish the free press and put party loyalists in all public sectors, especially the courts and schools. This is their first priority and they're not exactly coy about it, constantly gushing over Hungary and Poland.

It was totally DF's achievement that they gutted DR by 25%, but they also wanted them to shorten their articles and have exerted influence through the board for something like a decade. They don't need to control the press when it rarely criticises them and their line, though. And sometimes you'll see suspect stuff like this:  (The article itself had a whole paragraph about the Germans "critical of immigration" removed.) I think having nazi roots pretty much covers the free press aspect, but you still hear the "It's National Socialism" argument from party leaders, so maybe we should assume that a sizable chunk of the population are barely able to tie their own shoelaces, I dunno. evil_bunnY posted:The rest of it is pure racism but this part is outright criminal.
