    So apparently Europe is fucked because Swedish MEP's hit the wrong button when voting on articles 11&13

    This would be kinda hilarious and fitting that Swede's are the one that did it but I think they either did want it to pass or were bribed to pass it and now they're using this as an excuse.

    So after the election I sure am happy that it turned out that a majority of the Swedish population are too educated to fall for the far-right and their blatant fear propaganda! :D

And even if the immigration was as much of a problem as they claim, the literal zero immigration policy that they support would only harm the country.

      Editing … Well European politics are so heavily skewed to the left that i consider most right groups in Europe to be soft. I read about six months ago that Sweden is in a housing shortage especially in the bigger cities. Don't know if that's true but if it is im not surprised some people are so heavily against immigration.

    A branch of the Swedish Liberal People's Party has argued for the legalization of incest and necrophilia http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/incest-and-necrophilia-should-be-legal-youth-swedish-liberal-peoples-party-a6891476.html
    Not sure what to make of this.

      Editing … The necrophilia thing I get, but with incest there are too many problems. You can never know if the other part of the relationship has manipulated the other into doing it over the years. There is also a much bigger chance for the relationship to stem from abuse than there is in an average relationship.

      Editing … I feel like even more of a loony than I already am when I can't think of any reason not to legalize these. Are there health hazards? You propose a great point, but if it's completely consensual, then is the only thing "wrong" with the relationship based on society's moral standards?

      Editing … The problem is inherent in the fact that when you grow up with someone, you can manipulate them, harass them and abuse them for such a long time, that they don't even realize it. It's too big of a risk. And obviously there are gigantic health hazards, if you two get a baby, that baby is fucked up. Like completely fucked up.
