Enough is enough!
Current mood: Pissed off!
And they wonder why this contempt for politicians are growing..
It’s because our representatives, the people we have chosen to speak for us, doesn’t give a crap what the citizens wants but just go for their own agenda. To advance their own careers. I’m not a politcal person, quite the opposite actually. I just have never taken an interest in it. Maybe, I have, during elections and such, tried to listen to a debate sometime, but they always bored me to no end.
But now there’s been a law that the majority of the Swedish government voted yes to. The, in Swedish called FRA-lagen (or the FRA-law), wich means pretty much that the Swedish citizens are under constant surveillance. E-mail, chatting, text messaging, you name it, they’re watching it. And they do so without the slightest suspicion of a crime committed. No, everyone is a suspect until proven guilty! And it’s not like it was the Moderate party that just thought up the idea of watching people. No, it was the Social Democracy party who first came with the suggestion. So theyr’re both as bad as the other. And that pisses me off, that you can’t trust anyone these days. If you ever could. I have sometimes toyed with the thought of being a politician myself, just so that there’ll be one honest soul there. One who stands up for their beliefs. One who won’t sell out the Swedish people, just because it’s a good career move.
I really hope the citizens of Sweden will do whatever they can to stop this law. Go out and do something! I know, it’s easy for me to sit here and say that you should go out and protest, and I don’t live in Sockholm myself so that I can go and protest outside the parliament building, so I don’t really know what to do. But I hope the Swedish people get off their lazy asses and start protesting! (Myself included of course, I will try and find a way to spread the word through this blog and other means).
I’m just so sick of it all! I want to go out and do something but I just don’t know what.
