Also, can people stop using the term "Alt-Right" in response to everything? They are a very small group that doesn't even have a particularly coherent ideology.


I first found out about "Alt-Right" last week and it's already well on the way to becoming the most annoying buzzword of 2016.

Well here's a story from three years ago about how Sweden was thinking about implementing it. This story might be legit.

Still seems kind of fake..

Also, I didn't bother to read any other articles, but they all seem kind of onion-esque.

Had to look that up and found an article with this piece of gold...

Quote:
The Unionen helpline was set up to promote equality and will be staffed by a gender expert and a group of feminist politicians, comedians and scientists.
Helpline set up so women can report mansplaining in Sweden | Metro News

So Sweden is like the San Francisco of Europe?

Probably an accurate description. It''s seen as a bit of a laughing stock and passive/weak imo.

I remember posting that world map of countries Britain hasn't invaded and there were only like 15, and I said we should go for the full set, start with Sweden as they will probably encourage us.
