von Blåbär praised Pelle_Z's review and claimed that family immigrants to Sweden did not need to prove their identity. According to the post, Muhammed Ali had lived for ten years with an unknown identity, after which the Migration Agency deemed that the identity was automatically established. The author also wrote that the agency had low confidence in Somali passports and other Somali identity documents, but had nonetheless approved a document from Ali. What document it was and what it contained was classified, von Blåbär stated. The author claimed that this meant no one knew who a Left Party member of parliament was and questioned whether this was legally secure. https://t.co/nnCmz3DZez #migration #identitet #Sverige (translated)

"This is ridiculous! What are you doing? You know nothing" - It was boring of course, but I wouldn't have won this match anyway. He continued to play so well that he was just better at table tennis than I was today. All credit to him. But it really sucks for me, says a disappointed Möregårdh to SVT Sport afterwards. #TrulsMöregårdh #Bordtennis #EM2023 (translated)

Ida Gabrielsson criticized the editorial page of Dagens Nyheter, stating that it often exhibited the same contempt for people that it accused its opponents of. She argued that DN portrayed itself as a mediator of decent truth and responded to people who disagreed with condescension. According to Gabrielsson, the newspaper's view of decency lacked class and equality. She also criticized the Center Party (C) for not wanting to discuss substantive issues or collaborate within the majority that had reached an agreement in the parliament. She wrote that C did not want to participate in joint preliminary meetings before the committees and that C had not answered affirmatively to the question of whether the Left Party (V) was included in the same government support. Gabrielsson called it common sense for V to want to know which parties would govern together before a government agreement was negotiated. She questioned how this could be interpreted as S coddling V. Gabrielsson wrote that DN's view of decency did not seem to encompass issues such as unemployment benefits, health insurance, working conditions, and funding for welfare. She also highlighted the working conditions in the gig economy, asking whether it was decent not to prioritize that nursing assistants could live off their pensions. She wondered if it was competent for the government to privatize the employment service, which she believed had opened the door to crime while job seekers were left without help. She asked whether a society could be built together without understanding how people were affected, for example, by the risk of being denied sickness benefits after decades of work. Gabrielsson argued that understanding was not the same as agreeing, and that it was necessary to effect change. She warned that voters might lose faith that their vote made a difference, and wrote that political opponents should try to win support for their direction rather than attempting to impose their will by condescension or circumventing compromises. #politik #samhälle #jämlikhet (translated)

Ida Gabrielsson criticized the Centre Party (C) for what she claimed was fabricating reasons for why the Left Party (V) should not be part of a government. She wrote that parties with different positions could resolve issues through agreements and referred to the fact that parties with differing opinions on the matters raised by C had governed together in other Nordic countries. According to Gabrielsson, V would respect agreements and membership in a government. She accused C of being unwilling to negotiate the obstacles the party had highlighted and asserted that V could have resolved the issues. Gabrielsson also wrote that C refused to coordinate the ongoing policy within the parliamentary majority the party had helped create. She urged DN and others who claimed that V blocked policy issues to talk to C. Gabrielsson referred to a TV4 segment the day before, where Rikard Nordin from C, according to her, did not answer yes to the question of whether V was part of the government support. She wrote that Nordin simultaneously emphasized C as the most constructive party. Gabrielsson also stated that Thand Ringqvist responded that there was nothing V could do to facilitate a joint government cooperation. She criticized C's statement that the party could possibly support an S government in the future, provided it followed C's policies, and wrote that this implied V was expected to vote in favor of policies to the left of itself. She wrote that she wished the issues had been resolved before the election and that V had tried to unite the opposition without success. Gabrielsson said she found it hard to understand that C had not prepared for the election result that she claimed most polls had shown. #politik #samarbete #regering (translated)

Sofia Nerbrand questioned what Susanne Nyström was up to and wrote that DN's editorial page had gone from being a pleasant and cultured forum for ideas to mocking people who were making an effort.

After an action to prevent the participation of the right-wing extremist AfD member Hans-Thomas Tillschneider in a commemoration event at the Haller synagogue, the Jewish Student Union Germany is increasingly facing threats and hostilities. #Antisemitismus #JüdischesLeben #Rechtsextremismus (translated)

Frölunda HC stated that the team took three points against Linköping after scoring one goal in each period. According to the club, Normann kept a clean sheet, and Erik Thorell, Jacob Peterson, and Max Friberg scored the goals. https://t.co/7duubPpNH0 #hockey #vinst #mål (translated)

Rare, but it happens: a blocking recommendation. The account @block-list.bsky.social seriously attempts to portray Tillschneider's intention to enter the synagogue on the memorial day in Halle as a legitimate interest and to assert Tillschneider's right to control the use of public funds.

Ida Gabrielsson wrote that the Social Democrats' 28 percent, the party's lowest result ever according to her, should lead to greater humility towards the voters. She said she appreciated the industrial town mentality's emphasis on not putting oneself at the center. Gabrielsson stated that the Social Democrats had commented on her and Nooshi's maturity and said that they therefore could not become government ministers. She pointed out that she herself had not expressed interest in the position and said that there were more or less suitable people in all parties. She did not want to compile a list of politicians' maturity herself. She argued that the Left Party's demands for political influence concerned the party's electoral politics, not specific individuals, and asked why the Social Democrats' executive committee focused instead on individuals' maturity. According to Gabrielsson, the Social Democrats needed to accept the situation regardless of their own preferences. She wrote that the party's leadership risked making it difficult for Magdalena Andersson to be elected and that the Left Party only demanded a place in the government if its mandate was needed. The Social Democrats could seek other collaborations or accept sharing power with the Left Party, she wrote. #politiken #ödmjukhet #samarbete (translated)
