Eva Selsing wrote that her criticism of modern art in B.T. could also be directed at Jens Galschiøt's Trump sculpture, which she described as vulgar kitsch. She believed that much modern art was poorly conceived and executed political contributions that conveyed propaganda for an oikophobic establishment rather than uplift or give spirit to the human condition. Selsing stated that she was not surprised that the Danish Arts Foundation supported that type of projects. She pointed out that artists, works, funds, and museums, in her view, were influenced by left-leaning individuals, and that the result was often works characterized by ugliness, death, something unpleasant, and meaninglessness. She emphasized that her criticism was not about art being provocative, but that provocation had been highlighted for decades as the only or most important task of art. She asked why art should not also show beauty, and called provocation that followed the demands of the time ideological commission work. Selsing rejected that she had the sole right to define art but believed that works that could be reduced to poorly conceived political contributions were not good art—if they were even art at all. She referred to most modern art as societal-degrading kitsch. #ModerneKunst #Kitsch #KunstDebat (translated)

Max von Kreyfelt proposed a compulsory integration course for D66 in his column. According to him, the party spoke excellent Dutch, but still needed to learn how to deal with people who have different beliefs. He referred to Jan Paternotte, who mentioned the Renaissanceschool associated with Forum for Democracy in the Chamber and asked for stricter rules for new schools. According to Von Kreyfelt, Rob Jetten had advocated for a swift evaluation and possible legislative changes. The proposed course would, according to Von Kreyfelt, include lessons on civil rights, freedom of education, diversity, democracy, and equal rights. He wrote that citizens should be allowed to think independently and vote for other parties, and that a political background in itself was not an offense. Regarding Jetten's statements on October 9 about taking stronger action against certain schools and online channels where, in his view, young people were learning incorrect ideas about equal rights, Von Kreyfelt noted that Jetten had not mentioned the Renaissanceschool. As an exam task, Von Kreyfelt described a parent who wanted to pass on different beliefs to their child than D66. According to him, a student would succeed with an answer that did not involve inspection, improvement processes, or legislative changes. He concluded that D66 needed to learn that a free society also existed without its permission. #Inburgering #Diversiteit #Democratie (translated)

Marcus Adriano Birro remembers how in 1997, after being selected for a six-month project at Swedish Radio P3, he traveled to Stockholm for radio training together with 24 other young people. On the train, he met Sladjan Osmanagic. Birro recounted that they started talking after Sladjan heard music from The Jesus and Mary Chain that Birro was playing. They became close friends during the training in Stockholm and Gysinge, Birro wrote, and then continued to work together at Swedish Radio in Gothenburg. Sladjan initially worked on Musikjournalen and later became nationally known through Rally in P3. Birro also remembered their long conversations about football and Sladjan's love for Italian football. Birro wrote that Sladjan later invited him to Svenska Fans and supported his way into sports journalism. After the news of Sladjan's death, Birro described him as both uncompromising and warm, expressing sorrow over losing a friend. He also sent love and care to Sladjan's loved ones and wrote that he would raise a glass to his memory. #vänskap #SverigesRadio #fotboll (translated)

Ida Gabrielsson questioned after a discussion with Martin Ådahl whether there was any other party that the Center Party considered sufficiently acceptable. She wrote that C had tolerated the Social Democrats and the Green Party because they had previously agreed to govern with bourgeois economic policy so that C would not collaborate with the Sweden Democrats. At the same time, she argued, C had criticized S for its migration policy and rejected the Left Party despite V agreeing with C on the issue. Gabrielsson contrasted this with what she described as a contradiction in the Center Party's rhetoric on decency. She pointed to ministers from the Moderates whom she considered increasingly Trump-like and accused them of going after journalists and conducting negative campaigns, as well as statements from the KD leader, the right's talk of voters as voting cattle, and comments from Member of Parliament Lars Beckman (M) and Alice Teodorescu (KD), whom she described as conspiracy theorists. She wrote that Ådahl and C seemed to believe that the former alliance parties did not really support their current policy, but had been kidnapped by SD and deep down wanted to return to the era of Fredrik Reinfeldt. Gabrielsson argued that Ådahl and Magdalena Andersson seemed to think that the parties would return to the center when the Tidö cooperation ended. She called the view condescending and emphasized that the changes could also have been made deliberately and voluntarily. During the election campaign, Gabrielsson stated, she had spoken with a leading center-right politician from Stockholm about more people voting for SD in the area where she grew up. She recounted that she had highlighted material and social reasons for dissatisfaction and mentioned a neighbor who worked almost around the clock on his farm and cleared snow in half of Norrland during the winters. According to Gabrielsson, the center-right politician had responded that a difficult life did not excuse a vote for SD, as others with difficult lives did not vote for the party. Gabrielsson also relayed that her father, who grew up in Ockelbo, used to refer to C and the farmers as "the right aristocracy." On Tuesday, he had told her that he had closed the door on a DN Kultur journalist who wanted to discuss the family's background and life in the countryside and in the industrial town of Åmotsbruk. Her father had also criticized C as the worst party of the day and said he preferred the party when it was at least a farmers' party. Gabrielsson wrote that she had corrected him, but at the same time agreed that a party with 7 percent could be perceived as self-satisfied if it assumed that others would follow its line. #Centerpartiet #Sverige #politik (translated)

08.10.2026 PUTIN'S BIRTHDAY GIFT I was wrong the birthday gift for Putin was not only the Czech dog poop bags. In the middle of the night it was a major attack with missiles and drones against Ukraine. Here this morning on this day of great terror no one in our streets shouts political slogans. The little Swede with future peace Fridays says nothing either. The newspapers write more about Hamas terrorism. Birthday gift missiles hit in Ukraine Rescue workers carry unconscious children out of the apartment block ruins in a European capital. And the tinfoil hat wearers write “Russia is not my enemy” No, they don’t write it they copy the Russian disinformation text and insert it for undermining division. The birthday gift for Putin killed at least 5 children and 23 adults in Ukraine. (translated)

Magnus Barsøe criticized that the 31-year-old Nkumba Ludovic Tshiembe had supposedly received one year in prison for killing a family man. He wrote that Tshiembe had previously been convicted of rape and attempted murder, and called the sentence, as well as a one-year nightlife ban, insufficient. Barsøe called for minimum sentences inspired by the USA, although he did not advocate for the American legal system. He believed that greater alignment between the court’s sentences and the public’s wishes was necessary to maintain trust in the rule of law, and that the current gap harmed democracy and was deeply unfair to the victims of crime. #retsstat #strafferet #retfærdighed (translated)
