  • It’s not that much of a surprise from the Swedish government. They collaborate and implement the politics of a party which considers you basically a foreign invader if you have two foreign born parents, a la the Replacement theory, and you are making the Swedish ethnicity impure. And yeah, I know replacement theory is commonly used to target non-whites and/or non-christians, but they produce replacement theory content where anyone with two foreign born parents are considered to replace Swedes (second generations are considered too, and they signal that they are worried about third generation impurities too). This is just Sweden now. Cruelty for anyone they consider impure.


  • I think this has existed as an intentional goal for a long time, albeit from another point of view. I’m thinking of like the piracy days of early 2000, then there was talk about how to lock down devices to prevent any sort of copying of media. The discussion sort of died when Spotify came. But I’m worrying that this development will trigger a reemergence of such a goal. As your self built computer will be more and more expensive, a new possibilty may open up to sell prebuilts that are more locked down. Similarly to how Android is moving from a more open device to a locked down one. HDMI forum locking down their protocols. This may become reality for your general purpose computer. Companies controlling compute and media streaming have a similar motive here, if they do set their mind to it to have this as a fully intentional goal… sigh





  • The “Marxist” bit for ÖrP is like “Marx said that under capitalism wokers are alienatied cogs in a machine therefore we should have full control over the reproduction of none pure swedes, through mandatory birth control, so thay we can churn out cogs to the swedish industrial machine, just like Marx said”. That is the type of “Marxism” they talk about in their pod.











  • While they are good for all the reasons stated in the article, “included in the rent” means electricity prices is a driving force for rent increases. Rent in Sweden is increasing very fast, much faster than salaries or economic growth. The government and their lobby organizations also want to move away from the current system where rents are negotiated with a renter organization, to “free” rents. Today landlords demand 9.4% increase, but are granted “only” 4.8%, and this protection will probably be gone soon.
