Television, The War On Drugs, The Swedish System: Sofia Modigh makes a fool of herself on the idiot box
If you use heroin you have probably tried cannabis. That does not mean that cannabis leads to heroin use. It’s not even logical to reason that way. If there were no cannabis, people would still die from heroin. And there would be school massacres even without Marilyn Manson. Poverty, social alienation, unemployment and the following boredom and hopelessness lead to hard substance abuse in a much higher degree than weed. Politicians would never think of banning poverty though, especially if they’re Christian Democrats. It’s easier to point the finger at marijuana smokers (and muslims, both being traditional scapegoats of modern society. Much more than islamist ideology, poverty leads to antisocial behavior such as throwing rocks on fire trucks. It’s no coincidence that this always happens in the poorest areas – as noted by Skumrask). It’s the worst kind of political correctness, more concerned with maintaining a shiny social façade than with human lives. This comedy is not even funny. What’s funny is that we’re pulling longer and longer shifts so we can pay Sofia Modigh’s salary. That’s black comedy.
(5) Swedes, especially politicians, tend to think that what is Swedish is superior. Sometimes it’s justified. Not with their moralist, contra-productive drug policies that they seek to export to the rest of the European Union, though. There is also the education system and job market that’s unable to suck up the competence of highly educated immigrants. The Swedish ideology of tolerance and openness is painted upon one of the most close minded peoples of the world, covering a reality hidden from the media but clearly felt by any foreigner trying to make her way into Swedish society. Another reason why The Swedish System is going straight down the toilet.
Prejudice and discrimination are not evil ideas that needs to be debated and “enlightened” away, they have their roots in a social situation, in economics. Integrating peoples from all parts of the world into the Swedish monoculture is not an easy job, especially in this climate of ever more aggressive capitalism, and all this uptight, liberal and left wing political correctness is definitely in the way of real improvements. If you are afraid to offend people, how can you then tell the truth? And if we can’t talk openly, how are we then going to make things better?
