Nine entries except this one. That's all I've written in August. Nine entries. I suppose the reason they're so few is because I don't have the energy to write any more pick-me-up-you-can-do-it-you're-the-best-entries and since I don't seem to have anything else to say at the moment I just don't write anything.
"Reclaim" with "AFA" (AntiFascistic Action or however one would translate it) in the lead were out Saturday evening to "reclaim Rosengård". That's "Rosegarden" if you're not Swedish - no, not granny Elsie's garden, but a district with a lot of problems (imagine rough neighbourhoods in the US and you're kinda close). The funny thing here isn't that Reclaim are morons or that AFA are a bunch of apes who should worry more about their future jobs than breaking the law, no the funny thing is that none of the people who actually inhabit Rosegarden wanted them there. They got driven out of the area by a few middle-aged men. They came back of course and ruined things because that's what they do when mommy and daddy tell them that no, you can't have one more bowl of ice-cream. Crushed windows for store-owners and throwing stones at the police and such. The worst part here is that people like me get incredibly prejudice against the inhabitants due to actions like this one. We are prejudice before, but this makes it alright somehow. This makes it possible for us to say "I told you so, it's just a bunch of idiots who live there" and it's not their fault. They didn't ask for it. They don't want the morons who "stand up for their opinion", but cover their faces and don't want to be in pictures. They don't want the destruction. They just want their life to be nice and quiet.
