What about you, Sweden?
Sometime around 2000, we were in Sweden, where we visited our old friends, Aunt Juli and Uncle Jóska, who had previously emigrated from Cluj, during the last years of the Ceausescu era. They chose their new country not only because they were fed up with Romania at the time, but also because they envisioned a better life for their son who graduated from university. The gym teacher-agricultural engineer couple initially lived as cleaners in a small town near Malmö, where they met some of their fellow Hungarians. They primarily made friends with them because, as they told me, the "real Swedes" are very reserved. As guests, we noticed how calm and balanced their lives are. We saw that everything was true as we thought about the country in advance. Moreover, when they explained to us that the Swedish flag was flying on some houses because there were guests there, we even envied "the Swedes" for their supposed national feelings.
This idyllic state lasted until about 2014-2015. The Swedish government at the time opened the gates wide to the first big wave of immigrants, and 190,000 unskilled and unemployed immigrants arrived in Sweden. Barely a few months passed and the Swedish and Danish newspapers wrote about the fact that the Swedish population - for lack of a better word - organized themselves for self-defense.
"There is a huge demand for alarm and self-defense weapons"
said the salesman of an arms trading company. A quarter of customers are women. The truck drivers said that if they saw a thief sucking the gas out of the tank, they didn't even call the police, but tried to drive him away themselves. And many citizens went to bed with a baseball bat under their bed.
In Sweden, countless self-defense groups have been formed on Facebook.
"When it turns out that a refugee accommodation is opening in a locality, the number of gun sales in the nearby gun shops increases dramatically."
said the manager of a security company. The problem is that six years ago the police closed the smaller police stations, so now they are very slow to reach a scene. "It often happened that the police said: let's record the details of the criminal and let him go..." he added.
A very interesting article appeared in Svenska Dagbladet about a family who had already been robbed three times . First a van, then a car, and finally a quad were stolen from them. When they called the police, they were told that they couldn't help them, because all the police are busy maintaining order in the immigrants' accommodation... The Swedish journalist concluded his article by saying:
it's the first time I'm afraid to live in Sweden.
And the madness continued to intensify, at all levels of politics.
You may still remember that also in 2015 Eva Brunne, the bishop of Stockholm - who is a lesbian - suggested that to appease the Muslims, the cross should be removed from the Sailors' Church in Stockholm, in which Muslim prayer rooms should also be created. The irony of the matter is that because of his attraction to women, the bishop would be executed in several extreme Islamic states, Infowars wrote at the time.
In 2017, the Swedish police received reports of 211 explosions. There were 40 explosions in the city of Malmö alone.
And the fight against the cross continued with the launch of a campaign on the Internet in 2017. Its initiators wanted the current national flag with a cross to be replaced by a Turkish-style flag, more in line with the rapidly spreading Islam in the country.
The petition's signatories warned the Swedish prime minister that the Swedish flag is offensive because it reminds of the country's "dark and oppressive past". Refugees and migrants must live under the shadow of a cross, which was a symbol of the millions of Muslims who were slaughtered during the Crusades and who feel that they are not safe in Sweden.
Of the 5,000 signatures set by the campaign, slightly more than 3,000 were collected in two days.
In 2018, in one of the most famous high schools in Stockholm, where an increasing number of immigrant children were admitted, the management - afraid that they were not polite enough - made the decision overnight to remove all Swedish flags, ornaments and medallions from the institution, which refers to Sweden. The fact that Nacka Gymnasium is in Sweden is no longer interesting - Savemysweden .
The "official" press came under increasing pressure from the government. And the life of the "partisans" became more and more difficult. Freelance investigative reporter Joakim Magnus Lamotte, who has published a series of cases that were not reported by the partisan press, wrote in 2018 about the suicide of Angelica Wiktor, a 30-year-old Swedish woman who was brutally raped by a Syrian migrant, but the woman could not bear the psychological burden , and ended his life. Moreover, the rapist was acquitted for "lack of evidence".
Lamotte's name quickly became known, partly because more and more people watched his video blog and more and more people attended his lectures. Meanwhile, his life slowly turned into hell because of the constant threats. There was a time when he received 40 calls in a single weekend, and unknown callers threatened to cut him to pieces if he did not stop what he was doing.
He would have tolerated this, except that there were also calls that "we will rape and kill your children too". In fact, they threatened him with bombs and explosions. Lamotte turned to the police to no avail. Your report was "processed" and rejected in less than an hour.
He had nothing to do, he surrounded his apartment with motion detectors and video cameras, so he tries to protect his loved ones and his own life. In a video message, he said:
"if you're just going to insult my family, you want the police to catch you first, not me."
a Voiceofeurope article at the time, he said that "I am currently the most endangered journalist in Sweden, but not a single official journalist has expressed solidarity with me."
In 2018, the situation was so bad that Unser-Mitteleuropa put it this way:
“Sweden is over. Rape, murder, Islamization, feminist liberalism: this rules Sweden, irreversible and absolute. But now a new party has been founded in Sweden, which with its radical solution proposals and demands can bring exactly what the country needs".
"Within 20 years, we will be a minority in our own country if we don't do something about population exchange."
This was already said by Gustav Kasselstrand, the leader of the Alternative for Sweden (Alternativ för Sverige) party. Kasselstrand was "too national" and was therefore previously expelled from the Swedish "Democrat" party, which ruled for 28 years and is largely responsible for the state of the country today. Although Kasselstrand earned a degree in economics from the University of Gothenburg and an MBA from Aalto University in Helsinki, he also studied in Germany and Singapore.
There is a low-intensity civil war in Sweden
he said in the interview. "Political correctness" contributed to the development of the situation, which led to the point that today it is not possible to talk about anything that does not fit in with the views of the leading politicians. Everything the alternative media writes about is true, he continued. "This year's elections can be the beginning and not the past. The fight for Sweden and Europe begins in autumn! No country is lost if there are people in that country who are ready to resist…”
They did not succeed in this in 2018. Moreover, YouTube censored and removed the party's posts that same year; the election was won by the coalition of the Sweden Democrats and the Greens. And they continued exactly where they started. Immigrant criminals were not allowed to be mentioned in the press, but in the increasingly overburdened health care, migrants had an advantage over Swedes, because they were treated first if they had any problems.
Big question, what will happen to Sweden now? Because it is true that the four-party coalition led by the Moderate Party won 176 seats, but this is little more than the 173 seats of the center-left. The clash of two nearly equal forces projects a typical nightmare of ungovernability in front of Swedish citizens, while the number of migrants has already reached 2 million people, i.e. a fifth of the population has an immigrant background. Oh, and only one out of every eight migrants works…
