Lotta Gröning: Socialdemokraterna har ersatt politik med påhopp

The Social Democrats have been caught with a magic factory What are your thoughts on this I have to say that in a way I feel a bit scared and I'm actually a little sad I am actually someone who was born into a workers' movement and comes from an entirely different time and a completely different party I don't have much more to do personally right now But just this that one starts engaging in this kind of political argumentation Where you confront your opponents Where you mock them and put a falukorv around their head They talk about how bad they are It is completely alien to the genuine labor movement Previously there was indeed a societal vision There was a societal structure on which one built their politics The party had leaders who were always with the people in building this society It had already begun in the 1930s with emergency relief efforts that were incorporated into the people's home policy You've taken in Lander you've taken Olof Palme who was everywhere if anyone became unemployed He met each workers' commune Now you have received a click that appears very bitter The only thing they do is engage in such an ugly argument They call it satire themselves I don't agree that it's satire It's not really satire to say that Ulf Kristersson is unfit to be prime minister They have such an extremely high tail fin and especially a very high tail fin When ST was also scrutinized by TV4 Their so-called ghost accounts came to light They almost had a clearer sender than the Social Democrats have here Even if you can click it out eventually A name like Politikerkollen for example where they turn heavy It is almost thought that it should be something that is good and reflects all parties equally They are just one-sided propaganda that belittles the Social Democrats' opponents and talks about how skilled they are themselves It's just fake accounts one side with exactly the content you describe Men according to Politikerkollen it's a site that claims to be a guide For politically oriented Sweden targeting the youth This information is biased It is to the advantage of the Social Democrats How do you see it when people do exactly that In the situation they are in when politics no longer exists They must come up with new ways to get new voters It's a particularly big problem for the Social Democrats So it's probably some kind of desperation that they're doing I think it's immoral unethical and ugly Minister for Civil Defense Karl-Åska Wallin criticizes the Social Democrats It's strong for this Among other things because there has been some collaboration with antisemitic accounts How do you see it It is absolutely unacceptable But that is also what the Social Democrats themselves say It's probably the only thing the party leaders are ever quoted about For they pretend in a way that they have no responsibility For what is currently being done in politics despite the fact that the newspaper is entirely controlled by the Social Democrats' politics and is completely funded by them So this is the silly thing that many newspapers have Social democratic independence or liberal independence It means nothing at all When responding to this criticism that's exactly what AIP says It is well known in politics right now People know who we are and what we are They say one is disconnected from the Social Democrats and is independent What do you think about that defense I don't think that at all for the Social Democrats especially the Social Democrats They have very strict loyalty requirements It is not much that is not centrally taken in the party leadership first You can only see it far down in workers' communities and social democratic associations After all there's a leadership style like Stefan Löfven's for the new one They said that the party leadership would decide everything The party leadership could send certain decisions further down and they had to discuss them But now one would reach a consensus and support the party leadership's decision I mean the democratic democracy within social democracy But that applies to many other parties there isn't You have a small elite that decides everything Are you disobedient you will be sent out into the cold It is clear that currently in politics and it is current in politics There isn't an article that questions anything the Social Democrats are doing This is the third time the Social Democrats have been caught engaging in this type of activity What do you hope this will lead to Can you see any changes in the future If the Social Democrats are to survive as a party they must somehow start talking about politics again and create a society and have some visions Now voters are seen more as customers and the movement has lost its touch The problem is that they are so incredibly bitter Sometimes I feel that almost no one in the leadership can come up with a real direction They must begin to believe in their own history in their politics and start thinking about how the social democrats can find a role This is the new society we have today A lot has changed They now have to fight for media space just like all other parties It is not obvious that all media outlets are rushing to the Social Democrats What I understand is that Epoch Times is usually the only one there at press conferences They have to fight for space That's just one reason to become bitter The bitterness is this 15-year battle against the Sweden Democrats They cannot accept that they have 20% of the electorate They cannot accept their voters They have a very hard time finding a role in the society and political climate we have today She is involved and corrupt All parties are guilty I think We have a toxic political debate that few voters and citizens have the patience to listen to So I say sharpen up Find a role Labor movements have always been very important and they should be able to be so in the future as well
