I don't think it is interesting to hear "the architect" evaluate his own work. Tegnell has a lot of critics but they don't get the same day of light. I can't refer to an English source but Ivar Arpi's interview with Björn Olsen recently is a good balance to this self-gratulatory message from Tegnell.
- fifilura 5y agoIvar Arpi is a very opinionated far-right columnist. So that will be very biased in the the other direction. I guess expect the truth to be somewhere in between. But (like proven with other far-right strategies) also don't expect it to be exactly mid-day.
- mongol 5y agoYes, he is not without bias. But then, who is? Although I don't agree he is far right. He is right. In any case, Björn Olsen is certainly an expert and his viewpoints are a healthy balance to what Tegnell says
- fifilura 5y agoI can back on far right, but not back on opinionated. Björn Olsen has held a consistent line throughout so he is worth listening to.
- xorcist 5y agoSweden is a strange country. Even moderately right wing people advocated for stronger lockdowns in unison, whereas the left wing perspective was think of the children (keep schools open) and think of the working class (who are the ones to lose their jobs). Says a lot of how malleable political discourse is, I guess.
- fifilura 5y agoOr the others are strange. I feel like the right wing in Sweden (conservatives) are the ones that are less likely to be liberal. In the sense that the have opinions on how people behave. For example when it comes to freedom of religion or sexuality or want to have opinions what should be considered real art and what is not etc.
