It’s been described as a bombshell moment. The upper echelons of Sweden’s government and defence forces last week shocked the nation by explicitly warning that war might come to Sweden, and that each and every Swede should prepare themselves. While some have taken the warning seriously and flocked to the stores to stock up on fuel and survival kits, others have accused the country’s leaders of fear-mongering
Lmfao what does Russia even has to do with Sweden?
Yes, if Sweden were to be populated only by people that associate the Russia-Ukraine situation with “we are gonna get invaded by russia because the donbass did”, I would say you are fucked, because it’s quite hard to run a proper democracy with a population lacking basic history and geopolitical knowledge.
Ah yes, private gun ownership, the true horseman of a country’s defense when getting invaded by another. Lol.
You have the luck to live in one of the countries with one of the most solid/corruption-free democracies and level of education in the world (even though it doesn’t appear to be true for all sweds) and you have the audacity to come here and complain that you cant carry a gun around and accusing your fellow sweds of voting for the same politics that allowed your country to reach such progress… As an italian, I would kill to have my country’s politics elevated to that level, from the corruption shit-show that they have basically been for all history.
Seriousy, educate yourself, especially on what war in Ukraine. Thanks. Do it for your country and for its democracy.
The socdems and left wing no longer espouse the politics that allowed us to develop to this point. Under their reign 2014-2022 the decline of electricity infrastructure, welfare, law & order as well as social cohesion has rapidly increased. I can go into details if you’d like, but the long and short of it is that they aren’t really a “workers party” with classic socdem values anymore. It’s getting to the point that many in our national union think it should disassociate from the socdems.
What the fuck did the Donbas had to do with anything. I said that our military spending and politics was a joke. And nordic country has the military capability to invade sweden successfully with the shitshow of military we got.
Yes, a sound relationship with firearms gains both the war movement in case of war and if all else fails a gurilla war. Like Finland or Switzerland.
Solid/ non-corrupt my ass, their as full with shit as at where you are. They just hide it better, explain the cocain partys that where uncovered this week at our parliment if you would like. Their bought and corupted as any filthy politician.
They WHERE progress, but for the last 40 years they broken down this beutiful and well oiled country to shit. Thanks to them every swede at night gets to worrie if we get to die in a bombing, getting our children shot in a gang shootout or having our wifes or daughters raped by the scum that your country let over the mediterranean sea.
Go fuck yourself, I am educated, I live here - dont lecture me about this shithole.
Ah yes, Norway and Finland, you better keep an eye on them, you never know when they might decide to invade another country…
It seems you missed that the war fearmongering the article is trying to spread is being justified by the russian invasion of ukraine (for some reason…?)
