*I'm bored, let's see what my super leftie friends in the scandi thread is up to* *Literally 3 pages of crazies piling on Split for saying common inoffensive poo poo*  Well, you solved the scarcity of self satire problem - I'm impressed. MiddleOne posted:
Am I reading the subtext right on this and the polling was done just before the svt report on rapes by foreign born males in sweden (https://www.svt.se/nyheter/granskning/ug/ny-kartlaggning-av-valdtaktsdomar-58-procent-av-de-domda-fodda-utomlands) was broadcast? If so, are there any similar data after that programme, or is it too early to say? Gut feeling would be that it could move the needle significantly, being the bloody lump of meat laid at the altar, right at a crucial point of the election, that it is.

With two weeks to the election, polls are not that important anymore. We will have the correct answers to the polls then. The drop for major parties and increase for smaller parties is actually expected. The interesting parts remaining are where the undecided go, turnout among different voting groups, Bradley factor of SD and anti-SD factor of MP/C. Also lol at the amassed dirt released the last week. Right on schedule and for some reason the least important (a vice prime minister should travel business) gets the most headlines, while our defense minister sitting in the lap of the defense industry gets a lot less.

If it wasn't on SVT i woulf have taken it for a hackjob from the swedish equivalent to infowars

NMR (DNM in Norway) were not allowed a stand at a recent Free Speech event thing in Arendal. They said they'd show up anyway, but bailed on that to go to Finland to protest nazi parties being made illegal. The second reason I guess is that Alliansen was present in Arendal anyway, and that party has really tight connections with NMR (Lysglimt Johansen stated in an interview that there is a significant overlap of members of Alliansen and NMR) so they already had representatives for their hosed up views.

The Foreign Minister used the excuse that "trade will draw them to the west", but somehow that hasn't happened at any point since 1932, and they've traded and cooperated militarily during literally all that time. That was his argument when he and the Crown Prince visited Saudi Arabia, barely a month after they had publicly beheaded 47 people at once. (They beheaded five people during their visit.)

I'm having a lot of 'fun' as a first time voter trying to work out wtf is going on. Moved to near karlskrona last year from England but am a Swedish citizen and all I know at this point is that I 10000% don't want to vote Sweden democrats and want to vote as non useless left as I can. SVT's electoral quiz thing said for riksdag I was mostly social democrats and vänster but I could go for slightly more specific advice, especially for the local poo poo I don't have the first idea about since I'm here so recently

https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/politik/hjaelp-i-naeromraderne-regeringen-vil-bruge-historisk-mange-penge-pa-humanitaer Danish government is planning to up humanitarian aid to largest amount in the country's history, 2.6 billion. There is some weasel speak in this, as some of the increase is simply due to the DK economy being strong. However, some of it is redistribution of funds that would have been used on immigrants in previous years, but since this number has dropped low due to restrictions, can be used on foreign aid instead. Personally, I'm all for this, it is pure common sense to apply funds locally where they can alleviate that much more suffering, and hopefully strengthening the local community, rather than using them on trying to integrate members of that community in Denmark. SplitSoul posted:The Foreign Minister used the excuse that "trade will draw them to the west", but somehow that hasn't happened at any point since 1932, and they've traded and cooperated militarily during literally all that time.

Yeah, I mean, it's not that that excuse is totally devoid of reason. Nations are influenced by trade and the association that comes with it all the time, at least to be more amiable to their trade partners perspectives, I'd argue. I just wish our politicians would show some balls and call out tyrants for doing deplorable poo poo. The trade could continue or it could be cancelled because of that, but at least we would keep our integrity. Rnr fucked around with this message at 01:13 on Aug 26, 2018 |

I've been a resident of Malmö since the beginning of this year, and I came to Sweden in 2016, yet somehow I got a röstkort in the mail. Was this in error? Isn't it that you have to be a resident for 3 years before you can vote? Or is there an exception for EU citizens?

And how much of is actual humanitarian aid? Probably only a fraction. About a third of it never leaves Denmark, IIRC, and they illegally used it to cover costs of asylum rejections.
