Alex Vanopslagh wrote that leftist demonstrators could burn the Dannebrog without breaking the law, while burning the Quran would be illegal under the Quran law. He did not believe that flag burning should be prohibited, but described the difference as a peculiar legal situation and an expression of religious special considerations. Vanopslagh claimed that the previous government had allowed the burning of the Dannebrog without consequences, while individuals who did something that the law deemed inappropriate regarding the Quran could face up to two years in prison. According to him, that was twice as long as Nkumba Tshiembe received for killing a 31-year-old Swede at a football event in Islands Brygge. He wrote that Denmark should be a free, liberal country and argued for harsher penalties for murder and severe violence, as well as more deportations of criminal foreigners. In his opinion, the police and judicial resources should not be used to criminalize criticism of Islam through Quran burnings. #Dannebrog #Ytringsfrihed #Danmark (translated)

The Baron of Øresund wrote to Arbejderen, which he described as state-funded and communist, that the media had previously covered T.C.N.'s claim of being subjected to police violence. He claimed that T.C.N. had itself used violence against police officers by spitting on them at Højbro Plads on Sunday, October 17, and asked if Arbejderen would follow up on its earlier article. #Danmark #Politik #Aktivisme (translated)

Mikkel Andersson wrote that in the early 2010s he met a group of young university students in a pub in Lublin in eastern Poland. He described them as left-leaning, inclusive, and critical of the national conservative party Law and Justice (PiS), but stated that they did not reject non-Western immigration to Poland. According to Andersson, they then referred to Sweden's experiences with immigration. He wrote that the meeting came to his mind after Hungary's and Poland's leaders, who according to him had succeeded markedly more right-leaning predecessors, had linked the riots in France to immigration. Andersson described that connection as correct. #Polen #Indvandring #Venstreorienteret (translated)

Cyrus Razavi wrote that the parade, which he had spent several months organizing, had been conducted with good attendance and in a peaceful and festive atmosphere. He assessed that the day was a success and thanked both the participants and those who had worked behind the scenes. According to Razavi, the follow vehicle, which was supposed to have speakers mounted, had been sabotaged. He wrote that individuals from the far left had stolen banners and cut the wires to the sound system near the stage close to Christiansborg while the organizers were at Kongens Nytorv. Razavi stated that the sound technician had been shocked but not physically assaulted, and that he had repaired the damage before the parade arrived. Despite what he described as attempts to sabotage the event and limit the participants' right to assemble and express themselves, both the parade and the program had been carried out, he wrote. #dkpol #dkmedier #ytringsfrihed #forsamlingsfrihed #deltagerdemokrati (translated)

The post also described that T.N. had participated in a report on TV 2 Kosmopol after the incident at Maersk's headquarters, where he appeared with his full name and identity.

Sólbjørg Jakobsen criticized Venstre for going after Rosa Lund after she had made posts and given interviews during her maternity leave. Jakobsen wrote that Lund had worked in the Parliament almost until her birth, and that Ekstra Bladet had portrayed the case as an example of how the Red-Green Alliance milked the system. Jakobsen disagreed with this. She wrote that Peder Hvelplund in the article had accounted for a specific deliberation in the party that she found reasonable if one distinguished between sick leave and maternity leave. Jakobsen added that she herself was writing from her maternity leave and that women could very well be on maternity leave while also being interested in work. She wished Lund good luck upon her return and wrote that she looked forward to both fighting against her politically and supporting her as a political co-mother. #politik #barsel #kvindelighed (translated)
