There's no contradiction from the POV of these people: They don't need to learn Swedish, they need to go home.

This makes me furious. I am incandescent with rage. These are the people that need the libraries the most, and to deprive them of that is just evil. I lack the words to properly explain my disgust and loathing of these politicians.

When I did SFI, one of the first things they did was show us where the library in Eskilstuna was and everything the library could do for us.

Wouldn’t be shocked if SFI was next on the chopping block.

Well, considering SFI have a number of issues, something should have been done about it a long time ago.

The SD suggestion is stupid as hell and btw never going to happen.

It’s not without it’s flaws but a program that supports immigrants trying to learn the language is a good thing.

And since these questions won’t lead to action-packed headlines, no one will notice and suddenly “oops, Vänsterpartiet is now legally a terror organization.”

My girlfriend is two years from becoming a citizen; if that were to be arbitrarily prolonged because Ulf decided he wanted some of that racism I’m gonna be royally pissed. Anything else they’ll cook up will obviously be loving terrible as well.

Sweden doesn't do religion. But if they did, it would probably be the best religion in the world.

Maybe it is wishful thinking, but I'd like to think that most people above 50 have some kind of expectation of working social services as some sort of baseline. Since neoliberal economics is incapable of providing solutions, especially in rural areas, material conditions will keep on declining along with the cuts.

Or maybe finally getting to call chokladbollar by their proper name :bahgawd: in public will allow people to endure an ascetic life. It's all so loving bleak.
