  • IMO totalt jävla oansvarigt av både regering och försvar att använda det här språket.

    Lyssnar man bara på retoriken låter det som att de förväntar sig att bli invaderade imorgon, och bara med kontextet att det här sades på en årlig försvarsmässa och inte som nåt plötsligt tal till nationen eller som en reaktion på nån speciell händelse kan man ju räkna ut att det inte är sån panik som orden i sig själva ger sken av.

    Och om det nu mot förmodan ÄR nåt speciellt som får dom att reagera är dom idioter som framför budskapet på mässan.

    Du kan få svensken att öka beredskapen och köpa fler konserver utan det här hysteriska tonläget.

















  • A couple of things.

    • Our defence has historically been coordinated to a high degree with Finland, and with only one of us in NATO it makes this coordination more difficult. So, in some ways, we are worse off than before the process started.
    • As it is now, Sweden is generally not worried about a land invasion. The danger is how exposed we are from the baltic.
    • A large part of why we want in is for continued solidarity and support of Finland. It is much better for Finland if we are in than if we are not.

  • I agree with you.

    Instances can defederate from meta at any point they choose, should it become necessary in the future. Until then, it is a huge boon to the more decentralized parts of the fediverse to get content from where all the “normies” are, as well as giving more visibility to non-meta instances and giving said normies a road to the less data-hungry parts of the network.



  • Some people seem to frame the shooting as justifiable to prevent the potential danger the kids reckless driving would pose to others. While I personally think this was a completely undefensible escalation of violence on the police’s end, I think there can be some reasonable discussion on what the appropriate level of force to stop the kid from speeding off would be. Sure, why not. Would I argue a person who is speeding away from the cops while shot is likelier to cause an accident involving others than one who isn’t shot? Also yes.

    But having a crowdfunder for the individual that did the shooting, in practice rewarding someone for executing a kid for speeding without a license? What the actual fuck?
