I do not post texts very often any longer. But don’t think that everything in the Swedish garden is lovely. On the contrary, Sweden is becoming more and more insane as time passes. This time, I cannot help publishing a text that has already been written and published, because I do not want my international readers to miss this one. You can say that the text shows what is the first step towards a Swedish dictatorship. You won’t believe your eyes!

Swedish minister for Culture, Lena Adelsohn-Liljeroth (Liberal), is critical of a Parliamentary committee and its decision to uphold the rules stating that press subsidies may not depend on newspapers’ political content. According to the responsible minister, a “democracy clause” should be included in the new legislation, barring “immigrant-critical” news outlets from receiving the statutory subsidies.
”One example is the debate that occurred while the pronounced immigrant-critical newspaper Nationell Idag received press subsidy” Adelsohn-Liljenroth writes in an article published on SVT Debatt [the offcial site of Swedish television, where I, by the way, have been banned from commenting].
She notes that it was against this background [that Nationell Idag was granted press subsidy] that she gave the Parliamentary Committee on Press Subsidies the directive to determine whether rules should call for ”respect for the ideals of democracy” or otherwise ensure that subsidies are justified from a ”democratic perspective”. The wordings denote the sharing of views on migration policy proposed by the Swedish government, most political parties and mainstream media. However, the ministerial directive to the committee resulted in an unwelcome conclusion. Mrs. Adelsohn-Liljeroth: ”The Committee concluded that such a requirement could be seen as a way to hinder the printed word. I disagree with that assessment”.
Now the government threatens to introduce a political section in the subsidy rules nevertheless – even though all members of the relevant parliamentary committee oppose it. ”I am now awaiting the respondents’ views on the proposal of the Press Subsidies Committee. I hope the responses provide a basis for imposing a democracy clause in the new press subsidy regulation,” Adelsohn-Liljeroth concludes.
The “first step towards a Swedish dictatorship” was, in my opinion, taken some time ago and we are now just observing a pick up in pace to get the job done.
The “election” 2014 will be like something out of the third world and then M and S (the two largest parties) will form a government of “national unity”, or something similar. Their first and main priority will be to “stop the racists” and all means will be employed.
It may be unpleasant to be a dissident in Sweden today but I am almost certain that it will get much worse in the coming years.
I sorry to say that you are right. What we see today is just a breeze. And the storm will come. Terrifying times are ahead of us.
“the storm will come”
Looks like it is coming now……It will get VERY ugly next year………
Yes, this is just the beginning. It will only turn when the Swedes stand up together and say NO. But at the moment, they are to coward.
I do not think that any government should be subsidizing newspapers or media of any kind or political persuasion. It is a waste of taxpayer funds. Newspapers and the rest of the media need to stand on their own. All companies need to stand on their own. No government subsidies period. But I understand how socialist Sweden is and how desperately Obama and his congressional democrat buddies want the United States to be a socialist country!!
To rule the press is an essential power practiced among those who have a hidden agenda and also allready implimented in Sweden to such a great extent that facts related to immigration is not allowed to be published
Yes, and this is why “dissidents” are not allowed to publish any letters to the editor here in Sweden. Not even people who are accused are often admitted to publish a reply. An example of this is when an alleged historian, Arnstad, published an attack on Norway for being a racist country after the latest general election. A reply from prominent debaters were not admitted.
Adelsohn-Liljeroth says ”respect for the ideals of democracy.” Speaking of democracy, was replacing the ethnic Swedish population with Muslims and Africans was ever put to the vote?
Well. At least the media that get press subsidies should not be lying, but base its articles on facts and objectivity and not have an extreme one-sided political agenda, and have a quite open comment-field like Cavatus, so that the people who pays for the press subsidies at least can speak up against what the lying presstitue media produce.
I agree!
