Ivar Arpi, on leave from the editorial board of one of Sweden's biggest newspapers to, according to his twitter bio, "continue his investigation into how gender ideology is taking over Swedish universities", takes a break from this pressing issue to defend SD in this time of need. https://twitter.com/Ivarpi/status/1125314342063366144 On the topic of Oscar Sjöstedt, SD's randian economics spokesperson, and his funny anecdotes about hanging out with Icelandic nazis who would kick dead animals and call them "die juden" https://twitter.com/Ivarpi/status/1125339829590462464

My man Arpi literally asked for money for "research" even though the book had his conclusion in the title.

KozmoNaut posted:He started taking pictures of cyclists breaking the traffic laws in minor ways, and shaming them on a public website in 2007, right? Interestingly his membership of R was before the head injury. I, for one, am thrilled that upwards of 5% of the population wants to vote for a literally brain-damaged racist.

I would have no problem voting for a brain- damaged politician if their politics were good. I get that it is funny, but you're all being pretty ableist so maybe stop harping on that and focus on the Nazi scum part.

See, that's the thing, his policies aren't good, they're horrific and include ethnic cleansing, and it's not a giant leap to assume his head injury had something to do with him turning into a rabid racist piece of poo poo. If it's ableist to not want mentally impaired, criminal racists practising law or indeed passing them, or tossing my friends out of an airplane, then that's fine, I guess I'm Dr. Mengele or whatever.

Let's review:quote:Under sagen kom det frem, at Rasmus Paludan i 2005 var udsat for en ulykke. Ved ulykken slog han hovedet, hvilket medførte en adfærdsændring, således han fik svært ved at klare konflikter. Ulykken efterlod Paludan med en méngrad på 25 procent og et erhvervsevnetab på ligeledes 25 procent. He literally hurt his head so bad it changed his personality for the worse and impaired his ability to work, leaving him unable to deal with even small conflicts. This is from court documents concerning a case where he harassed a police officer. The officer was involved with an investigation pertaining to a request for a restraining order against him, and Paludan surmised it must've involved a homosexual relationship. He belongs in a loving treatment ward, not political office.

Jesus. I just spotted one of the KD signs in the wild "make EU lagom again" How did "lets reference Trump" pass all the political checks and balances all the way to publication? Do they think young Flashbackers with Pepe shirts are going to vote for the Christian party with a whole range of straight racist parties to choose from?

Katt posted:Jesus. I just spotted one of the KD signs in the wild "make EU lagom again" Cause it is a meme by now and contrary to what media believes, the Swedish population basically only refer to Trump as that weird president in a long row of weird US presidents (see Bush, Clinton, Reagan). One could easily argue that Swedish media is more interested in US politics than Swedish, which is not to say that the same thing applies to the general Swedish population. KD is simply taking a page from SDs method book by doing an ad that specifically pisses off the media, since A: they know media is never going to be on their side and B: common people are going to see medias reaction as (justifiably so) silly.

Swedes are more curious and kiiiinda naive about Trump, but don’t support him unless they’re further right than KD/SD, and they’ll let you know. Most Swedes, however, will ask me how I feel about Trump as an American. I’m painfully brown.

I’ve met exactly one person who is pro trump, and that person is legitimately a complete and utter moron, and extremely concerned about Hillary Clintons emails still. The person is obviously very racist but doesn’t think they are racist, because “it’s just facts”, and is also pro Nye Borgerlige (possibly stram kurs as well, but I haven’t talked to the person since they became a thing). By the best guesstimates there are about 5% actual, literal, psychopaths and sociopaths in society, and that’s about the same % of people supporting trump in Denmark. Pretty sure that’s a Venn diagram which is more or less just a circle.

Sounds like a guy I know. He's all up in the libertarianism and free market capitalism stuff, but only when he personally agrees with the choices a business makes. He also hates big government, except when it strengthens border controls or makes life lovely for immigrants. I enjoy pointing out his hypocrisy.

When Bush was president, Swedes blamed me for America having voting for him. When Trump got elected, they just felt sorry for me.

Also the gender and IQ guy (women are stupider obviously). Considering how fundamentally terrible and laughable his research was, it's completely baffling how he was a professor for as long as he was. I cannot stress how bad, at both a methodological and theoretical level, his research was. Many a statistics student have been failed for less, and that's even discounting the copy/paste of early eugenics theory he used. Stram Kurs is like a honeypot for the absolutely worst people in Denmark.

When I was a kid my mom worked at a care center. She brought me with her to work a couple of times. A lot of them had no language beyond high-pitched screams or a few phrases they'd repeat endlessly while intermittently punching themselves in the head. Some would show dissatisfaction by grabbing poo poo from their diapers and smearing it on the walls. So, same.

I case you were wondering if Denmark is only bad on account of being irredeemably racist, then no, also quite misogynistic. https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2019/may/10/and-the-least-feminist-nation-in-the-world-is-denmark Meanwhile, DR have poll about how men and women would vote and, uhm. Twice as many men as women would vote danish peoples party. Three times as many men would vote nye borgerlige. Four times as many men would vote stram kurs. Twice as many women would vote enhedslisten. #Killallmen I guess.

V. Illych L. posted:why is this a better question? You don’t find it interesting why conservative nationalist parties attract a larger ratio of men to women? Looking at Swedish parties, SD is the only one with this ratio, while all others have higher ratio of women to men. And since SD is a relatively new party, these voters must have come from existing parties. Of course, if your explanation model is that men are inherently more racist and misogynistic, you don’t care. But such an explanation model is obviously stupid and simplistic.

Cardiac posted:You don’t find it interesting why conservative nationalist parties attract a larger ratio of men to women? the ratio is interesting, but the way you put it initially it sounds like what's interesting is specifically the movement of males from 'established' parties fwiw women are also overrepresented on the 'non-established' left in norway do this being an 'established' effect seems less likely than it being a protest effect or general rightward trend, probably predicated on some identity politic - typically these guys seem to care more about 'their' issues (like toll roads - totemic for a lot of periphery issues and for car culture as a primarily masculine identity marker) than institutions and general ideology, which indicates a tendency toward disillusionment etc not sure that the effect is so strong if you weigh for people's workplaces, though - women are more likely to be in the public sector by quite a lot, so who knows
