I thought Politiken was the only non-racist media that was legal in Denmark? The Danish Haaretz if you like

Yeah, I was thinking of Information. My dad subscribed to both when I was a kid, but I think he had Information a good while longer

The Norwegian government actually did something really good for once :psyduck:

Jeg leier hus ved snuplass. Russen har fest hver natt i fjor, fra midnatt til klokka fire. De får premie hvis de har fest der? Er det lovlig å finne på min egen premie til dem? En antipremie for høy støy hver natt?
Jeg vil være klar når de starter.

Don't expect anything from the cops. My house was shaking and my daughter crying at 2am on a school night. The bus were parked 50 meters away and it was louder inside my house than it was when I had parties myself. And this was in a neighborhood 1 km from the city center



I'd put caltrops there or shatter hundreds of glass bottles there - so they in the very least would have to pay tens of thousands to replace the wheels if it had been an issue for me year after year

Oh, and I'm pretty sure the chief of police were related to one of the russ

Don't take this guy's advice, don't do this. I will genuinely assume I don't have to explain why.

Oh, I agree it's a bad advice that might land you in debt. I never claimed to be a smart man - but I'd go crazy if I had to endure that single night for 17 days each year

There's not even any evidence the guy was Danish. Seems much more likely that he was painted as a Dane because Dirk Pitt has been convinced by Swedish propaganda that anyone saying racist stuff is actually a Dane.

Every racist isn't danish but ever dane is racist until proven otherwise. I don't make the rules unless I make them up

Speaking of which, DF's EP frontrunner Anders Vistisen is launching a true crime podcast called "Plague Over Europe". You can probably surmise what it's about.

Warthogs? Maybe that's just in Norway

Norway just have a few obscenely rich people because the rest moved to Switzerland to whine about having to pay taxes

If the taxes they want removed went away they wouldn't pay taxes at all

one of the very first things Solberg’s first government abolished, and Støre is such a loving coward for trying to chase those sweet sweet dollar-millionaire voters by promising not to reinstate it

Been the same issue since the 80s. Høyre actively makes things worse, Ap passively makes things worse

IMHO there are five parties that actually have some sort of ethical backbone/more ambitions than "stay in power":

KrF
Venstre
MdG
SV
Rødt

Pick your poison - myself I'll go for SV as I've seen it from the inside/have active family members, and what strikes me the most isn't their policies, but their culture. If you have a position and gently caress up, no one is gonna come to your rescue and the reaction from the party itself are usually more of a political death sentence than in the media where things blow over after a year

Not that it matters, people mostly choose between Ap and Høyre in elections so nothing will get substantially better in the foreseeable future

Hey, I had to include at least one party on the right

the present government actually did take a tack to the left and got nothing for it, so now they're back to trying to placate the opposition. it seems to be working, at least insofar as their base not deserting them and the broader centre-left remaining viable in at least some polls

the labour party is sort of objectively non-viable atm for several reasons, but it's imo kept from collapsing completely by the LO connection.

Eh, they got unpopular because high interest rates and inflation first and foremost, secondly all the scandals. Their whole political project stalled because of it and they never got it back on rails

All their left wing policies are mostly because they need to cooperate with SV on the budget and Sp is too unpopular to switch sides to the right two years in like they planned when going into this government (refusing to cooperate with SV, filling positions with conservatives etc)

My boss apparently did the calculation on one of those incidents in the 90s, although it was a shell. Turns out the WWII era gunpowder was not kept dry (or replaced).

The whole current thing stinks of management failure, where everything goes from the top down, but no information or notifications are allowed to go from people on the ground to top brass, because that would make the top brass look bad. Turns out that maybe listening to the guys who said the ship wasn't ready would have been a good idea. And this is not a defence issue, it's a general thing.

I'm just gonna assume people were drinking on the job :denmark:

I disagree a lot with Venstre - but they do actually have some intellectual honesty and is willing to stand up for unpopular policies like legalization of THC products and probably some more idk. They're too small for me to really pay attention to. Yeah, they joined the last government eventually, but SV joined Stoltenberg and that turned out to be a poo poo decision too. Kirsti Halvorsen was nice and all, but she was on the right side of the party along with that fuckhead Erik Solheim

If anyone is interested, around '98 there was a huge shift in Sosialistisk Ungdom/Socialist Youth, that took a sharp turn left when Karianne Moe won the leadership election against Inga Marthe Torkildsen. That gradually led to Audun Lysbakken getting elected (he was elected leader of Hordaland SU in '98 and vice-leader of SU in 2000)

I weren't active that many years, but I sat on the national board (? landsstyret) for a few years, and while I left over some disagreement on direction the people that eventually took over leadership roles are good people. It's a huge shame that Snorre Valen quit politics - he's probably the most intellectually honest person I know. He's currently the editor of Trønderdebatt.no that is one of the best opinion sites in Norway. Just posting an opinion piece he wrote that I think is good about how media handled Per-Willy Amundsen when he went mask off on Facebook

The alcoholics of Scandinavia are Sweden, Denmark and Norway are basically neck-and-neck.

That's because you don't think having a couple of beers each day is alcoholism while it most definitely is alcoholism

I've toyed with an idea for a political party based on Kristelig Folkeparti called Humanetisk Folkeparti whenever I get annoyed by Sosialistisk Venstreparti - usually over their opposition to nuclear energy and GMO instead of trying to nationalize it

But I think a party guided by humane ethics in its core would maybe get popular in Denmark when there is obviously a vacuum for a non-racist party
