1 year agoForrest Gump. Don’t question anything, America’s system is the best in the world, anyone who rocks the boat (especially a woman) is an uppity slut who deserves to die of AIDS. My parents aren’t even that reactionary, but they worshipped this film and still do.
The popular support for the strike in Sweden is thoroughly 50/50 though. There’s predictably been a major fascist backlash including strike breaking, but there’s been tons of leftist wrecking too. Many leftists view the strikes as a succdemm psyop and you have to remember that Nooshi is a very unpopular leader. The Swedish left has become so Twitterized, Americanized and extremely online, that anything that isn’t Bernie is seen as either a psyop, liberalism or nationalist revisionism. This is despite the fact that the Left Party argued for the complete abolition of capitalism only a few years ago, while Bernie has never done so in his life.
