Valen runt om i USA igår kväll var ett tydligt budskap från väljarna mot presidenten och republikanerna, men alla SVT-rubriker handlar om Mamdani. Ingenting om en viktig omröstning i Kalifornien som skulle kunna ge demokraterna kontroll över kongressen 2026.

Att SVT framställer Mamdani på det här sättet är oansvarig journalistik som faktiskt skadar den offentliga debatten. Det är motsatsen till public service-uppdraget.

Crazy 2022 poll where people in US asked to estimate % of population in different groups. My favorite result? According to these guesses, 85% of the US are either Muslim, Jewish or Native American. The TOTAL for all three is actually 4%. Oh, and a third of the country is gay/lesbian.

UK: "House and rent prices are going up in the UK because of immigration."
Hungary and Poland: "We don't take immigrants!"
UK: "Then your housing must have remained really low and affordable!"
Hungary and Poland: "Well..."

Now THIS is digital innovation we can use. Two Swedish 20-year-olds went to 317 bars across Stockholm checking beer prices & Happy Hours prices. They then created an interactive map of Stockholm showing where you can find the cheapest beers at the exact moment you search.

It’s a testament to the power of disinformation and toxic politics that Britain is recognising the national train wreck that is Brexit…yet, at the same time, Farage — the man who drove that train — is flying high in the polls.

The whole “Sweden is a Collapsing Multicultural Marxist Hellhole™️” bullshit has been pushed by the far-right for a decade. In the meantime, Sweden continues to rank in the global top 5 or 10 of virtually every major quality of life indicator. That drives authoritarian bigots like Orban crazy.

Three Days of the Condor was a film that set a high bar for all spy thrillers that followed. A masterpiece.

To summarise: We’re not racists…we just don’t want to see people who aren’t white, think Muslims breed like rabbits and want mass deportations.

Over 280 underage girls arrested for murder? Uh, no. The last 3 years, 2022-2024, there were a TOTAL of 329 murders in Sweden. So, Orban is saying almost all of them had underage girls as suspects or killers? Bullshit. Overwhelming majority of murders committed by males.

Eurostat numbers show that, without immigration, population in Europe would collapse. Italy's would drop by 50%, Germany 40%, Hungary & Poland 33%. Older population with no new working taxpayers and no immigration = economic suicide. Even WITH current immigration, Europe will be 6% smaller in 2100.
