I’m not saying that it’s especially bad conditions, more like indoctrinating conditions. It’s not like germany had very bad conditions when they started ww2 either.

But if you don’t think it’s a problem with the society and culture then the only real common denominator is ethnicity. Which kind of means that ought to be genocided when russia eventually falls.

I don’t think that Im rationalizing, more like the opposite and saying that most people are similarly irrational, there’s no evil-gene that just they have.

That said, if they take up arms and go to kill innocent people then they obvilusly need to be put down. Similarly to how a dog trained by a dog fighter might need to be put down even if it’s just a pawn in someone elses twisted game. So yes these russians have to be killed in self defence until they leave.

All I’m saying is that i always find it a bit rich that people act as if they would always do the right thing in similar circumstance.

They are not monsters though, they are very human. Doing horrible shit is as human as eating or shitting. I think most people here would do the same thing if they were raised in similar conditions. Most people don’t even see (much less care enough to do something about) the injustices going on in their own society.

It really is an almost impossible situation. The far right will win this one regardless what the government does. If they do nothing we will probably see some form of terrorism sooner or later, if they clamp down on it they will prove the activists right in that the government will reduce freedom of speech just because some muslims cant behave.

Maybe theres some way to eke out a win but I cant see it.

Yeah afaik there are a couple of suitable places for more hydropower but no plans for more due to, like you said, local environmental reasons.

That said, sweden is basically already completely “decarbonized” (if anything can really be decarbonized), we only have a reserve oil powerplant that runs for maybe a couple of days each year (~9 days last year, though last year was especially bad). Sweden also generally has a pretty big net surplus (usually about 10-20% of production) of green power that is sold to the european grid.

It’s not that bad. Only if it’s really important to you that noone dislikes you or are bothered your opinion. Unless you have some seriously inflamatory opinions it’s not the end of the world.

It honestly was less bad than i expected. Not saying it’s perfect but it could have been a lot worse.

Could start by removing subsidies.

Easiest way to reduce the environmental impact is to do more factory farming. Though I don’t really think that’s a good idea since it’s often kinda horrific.

It all really depends on your individual situation. It’s impossible to make blanket statements like that since all food types have their pros and cons, it’s more a matter of eating a varied mix of generally healthy things and not just eat only one type of food.
