Interesting article from Sputnik that discusses the consternation evidence among members of the Social Democrats at the news that their youth wing has been turning towards radical Islam. Among other actions, the youth wing has:
- called Islam a "universal solution against human suffering, diseases and problems existing today"
- expressed homophobic and anti-Semitic sentiments
- substituted the traditional Internationale anthem played at a party conference with an Islamic song.
- dismissed atheism as an "amoral idea"
The news story interviewed one of the former leaders of this youth division:
According to Carolina Pettersson, former district secretary of SSU Skåne, the "fundamentalist phalanx" has roots in Rosengård, Malmö's immigrant-heavy district. According to her, they came to power using aggressive methods and intimidation. Petterson blamed the rise of groups that don't share the party's ideology on a weakened labor movement with a higher tolerance for clans and ideological digressions.
Perhaps it is the translation, but this is a word salad. What do the following mean?
- 'weakened labor movement'
- 'higher tolerance for clans'
- 'ideological digressions'
So the traditional labor base of the left-leaning Sweden Democrats is being diminished in favor of Islamic activism.
What about 'clans'? This seems to imply that large extended family/tribal units are collaborating to lock down political power.
If you have followed my posts about Germany, you'll know that Arab clans control the organized crime in German cities. Their power is so great that they openly mock German police.
So we have clans growing in power and influence, taking over mainstream political parties.
Sounds like quite a recipe for a stable, progressive society.
