Just the fact that Sweden make their own fighter jets is insane IMO. So maybe those work ethics are paying off?
And yes it is absolutely great that Sweden has joined NATO, even if we need to reinvent NATO without USA, or maybe rather ESPECIALLY if we have to make a new NATO without USA.
Absolutely as a Dane and brotherly rivalry among us aside, Sweden is an industrial/technological powerhouse way beyond what its size would indicate.
Yes I checked my own country (Denmark) and that is green, and for Denmark it is decidedly illegal to vote for death penalty.
So the vote was probably about making death penalty illegal.
PS:
AFAIK it would be against the Eu treaty to vote for death penalty for ALL EU countries.
From what I’ve seen on other “advanced” humanoid robots, it probably could, using 4-10 times as much time as you would yourself, and breaking a few pieces in the process.
As a result, these families received thousands death threats.

There should be absolutely no playing nice with these people.
Well put, that’s exactly what I mean.
For some people sex is a minor thing, what matters is emotional closeness. You can have closeness without sex.
I think you can find someone without too much sex easily, I hear all over the place that men are actually tiring of sex just as much as many women are.
The main difference being that women often think it’s their fault when men don’t want to have sex.
Hey relax, take it easy now, don’t make crazy demands on Microsoft.
They’ve just recently released Windows 11, and I’m sure they will have it completed soon,
and have all core features broken.
Authoritarian means it is NOT a democracy, which was the point.
That’s completely irrelevant, the argument was democracy vs authoritarianism.
You seem to have some sort of attention problem.
If you are referring to South Africa you are a moron.
Because South Africa was very much an authoritarian leadership, and ruled by a white minority by force.
WTF is that reference supposed to show that does anything but support democracy?
No that all the problem you mention are worse in totalitarian countries.
Why do you first support my point, and then call me a moron?
Again with USA as the example, no other democracy had slaves like USA did.
On the other hand comparable stories to Stalin can be found in multiple autocratic systems.
Where USA is the exception as in exceptionally bad among democracies, what Stain did is commonplace among autocracies.
Please read my edited post.
And no I’m not anything remotely like a tankie, I am one who favor ACTAUL democracy, where among the best models we have running currently is the Scandinavian model.
A 2 party system can never be accepted as a functional democracy, also the level of corruption in elections is undemocratic. preventing people from voting and gerrymandering.
All those things detract from USA as a democracy.
You are delusional and create strawmen and then you think you have a superior view based on your delusions and false equivalences that have no basis in reality.
Compared to genocide by Stalin, ICE is peanuts.
But no it’s not justified, that still doesn’t make it an equal atrocity to what Stalin did.
Also USA is not a democracy, it is a deeply dysfunctional democracy. And In USA it can go 2 ways now, they either go full dictator, or if they go the other, these things will be softened.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_mortality_in_the_Soviet_Union_under_Joseph_Stalin
official records of 799,455 executions (1921–1953),[8][9][10][11][12] around 1.5 to 1.7 million deaths in the Gulag,[13][14][15] some 390,000[16] deaths during the dekulakization forced resettlement, and up to 400,000 deaths of persons deported during the 1940s,[17] with a total of about 3.3 million officially recorded victims in these categories.
So kindly piss off with your false equivalences.
My issue is the claim that such atrocities don’t happen in democratic institutions.
But that’s the point, they don’t. Atrocities can happen, but not as bad as such.
Just give one example of a democracy where an atrocity remotely close to that happened.
Welcome to the 1%. 😋
Yes there are some that switch, and also kudos to those who try, even when they find it’s not for them.
I’m just sad that the problems with Windows isn’t enough for more to abandon it? I simply don’t get “normal” people.
I have never heard of a western democracy that has a witch hunt against homeless people to near the degree that is common in USA.
So yes the evil against homeless people is mostly limited to America. USA has become the dystopia SciFi stories warned us against since a century ago. And most Americans don’t even know it.
