💥 Another Night, Another Bomb – Welcome to Multicultural Sweden Last night, a live bomb was found inside Sweden’s largest shopping mall, Mall of Scandinavia. The national bomb squad had to remove the explosive device, which was discovered by accident when police responded to an unrelated robbery. Meanwhile, on the other side of the city, a massive explosion ripped through an apartment building in Hammarby Sjöstad at 1:30 AM. A teenager was arrested nearby, but as usual, police remain tight-lipped about any details. Just another night in Sweden. Bombs in shopping malls, explosions outside homes—this is now completely normal. And what is the government doing? Fast-tracking a ban on AR-15 rifles for hunters. Because, of course, cracking down on law-abiding Swedes is easier than going after the actual criminals turning Sweden into a war zone. Enjoy the “vibrant” and “exciting” new Sweden—just don’t step on any explosives. #sweden #news
An intriguing theme at #MSC2025 is Euro-Patriotism, a concept that could potentially reshape the cultural and geopolitical landscape of European nations. This idea, fostering a collective European identity, might wield a profound metapolitical impact on European peoples over time, altering how they perceive themselves and their place in the world. While I wholeheartedly agree that Europe needs to be strong, united, and resilient in the face of global challenges, I remain unconvinced that the European Union, in its current form, is the optimal platform for realizing this vision of unity and strength. The EU, with its intricate bureaucracy and diverse member states, often struggles to present a cohesive front on the global stage. Currently, it is the structure we operate within, and for EU critics, this presents a delicate balance. We aspire for a Europe that is strong, independent, and prosperous, embodying the spirit of unity without losing the essence of its diverse cultures and histories. Yet, there is a strong desire to dismantle what I see as a modern Tower of Babel—a bureaucratic behemoth that often feels disconnected from the citizens it represents, and most of the time seems to have anything but the best interest of the European peoples in mind.
The Sweden Democrats have abandoned their base. Instead of standing firm on immigration, sovereignty, and crime, they’re folding to establishment pressure. - They promised to protect gun rights—now they support an AR-15 ban. - They vowed to halt mass immigration—yet citizenships are handed out like candy. - They opposed NATO & EU integration—now they embrace both. SD is morphing into another weak conservative party. Is there still hope for them, or is it time for something new? Read my full breakdown here: #sweden #politics #news
Swedish Government Pushes AR-15 Ban After Örebro Massacre – Chaos Ensues Following the mass shooting in Örebro, where 11 people were killed, the Swedish government and its coalition partner, the Sweden Democrats (SD), have now proposed a ban on AR-15 rifles for hunters. The problem? An AR-15 wasn’t even used in the attack. This is pure symbolic politics—a desperate attempt to be seen as “taking action” while completely ignoring the real issues behind Sweden’s violence crisis. Sweden has no problem with legally owned firearms being used in crime, and certainly not with AR-15s. Criminals don’t get their weapons from licensed hunters. 🔹 Sverigedemokraterna in Crisis Over Betrayal The decision has caused internal chaos, particularly within the Sweden Democrats, who explicitly promised last fall that they would never support an AR-15 ban. Now, they are doing the exact opposite. The backlash has been so severe that Richard Jomshof, chairman of the Justice Committee, has resigned from his position. Jomshof described the proposal as "rash and emotional" and claimed it was "not rooted in our respective parties." 🔹 Major Infighting Within the Sweden Democrats According to sources, Monday’s internal party leadership meeting was one of the most heated in SD’s history. -- Party leader Jimmie Åkesson reportedly threatened to resign unless the party backed the AR-15 ban. -- Critics within SD argue that Åkesson and his inner circle have lost touch with the party’s grassroots. -- Internal support for Henrik Vinge and Gustav Gellerbrant, two key figures pushing the ban, is said to be at an all-time low. 🔹 Rebellion Growing Against the Government’s Gun Ban The backlash isn’t limited to SD. Many within the Moderate Party are also furious at this betrayal of their voters. At a time when gangs are using military-grade weapons smuggled from the Balkans, Sweden’s government has chosen to punish law-abiding hunters instead. A classic example of Swedish politicians attacking the wrong target—because going after the real criminals would require actual courage. #sweden #news
🇸🇪 Theories Emerge About the Örebro Massacre Sweden is slowly trying to recover from the deadliest mass shooting in its history. Yesterday, a memorial ceremony was held, with speeches from Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson, King Carl XVI Gustaf, and Queen Silvia. Queen Silvia spoke to the press, directly linking this tragedy to the bombings and shootings that have plagued Sweden for over a decade. "Where has the Sweden we knew gone?" she asked—a question that resonated with many Swedes who no longer recognize their own country. While some may dismiss the royal family as out of touch, the Queen’s words reflect the deep sense of loss felt by ordinary Swedes as their once-safe nation is transformed into a war zone of gang violence and social unrest. — 💥 New Motive Suggestion: An Attack on Social Services? While police have not yet confirmed a clear motive, reports in Swedish media now suggest that the Örebro massacre may have been an attack against the social services. 🔹 What We Know So Far: - Rickard Andersson, 35, had been receiving welfare benefits but had them revoked because he failed to apply for jobs. - He had no income for over a decade and reportedly fought the decision to cut his welfare. - Multiple social service employees are still missing, raising suspicions that social workers may have been among his targets. - According to a source with insight into the case, Andersson was deeply frustrated with the system: 👉 "He had conflicts with social services. That’s the only theory we have right now." 🔹 Police remain tight-lipped about the investigation, only stating that Andersson left no manifesto or explanation for his actions. They continue to emphasize that there is no indication of ideological motives behind the attack. — 🇸🇪 A System That Fails on All Fronts If these reports hold true, this case once again exposes the deep cracks in Sweden’s welfare state. - The welfare system is failing—it hands out benefits freely, yet struggles to enforce basic accountability, leading to frustration and resentment. - Social services are overwhelmed—understaffed, struggling with increasing threats, and now potentially the target of violent retaliation. - Mental health issues are often ignored—while we don’t know whether Andersson sought help, his long history of social isolation raises questions about the system’s ability to detect high-risk individuals. The truth will come out soon. But regardless of the final motive, this massacre is yet another sign of a society in deep decline #sweden #news #crime
