Out In The Cold

It's very cold at the moment. The snow lies deep outside my window and, more positively though, shines up the very long nights we have. And tomorrow it is the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year. The snow is fun, but causes a lot of inconviniences in the whole country. Anyway, now the biggest idiots get some hallucinated draft under the wings and begins to question the climatechange. Granted, it looks a bit weird when we have it one of the colder and snowiest winters in amny years when people are arguing that we are getting nearer to an extreme warmth period where 2 degrees celscius is portrayed as something evil. At the moment I believe most Swedes would not mind that.

I even have a book somewhere that says that we are one of the countries that benefits from this as the usage of the earth will increase and so on. And then it is these paradoxes I find strange about all this (granted I'm not a scientist in those subjects so I could be wrong), for example, the warmth will take away the golf stream and that will cause it to get colder here, wouldn't that take each others out? Of course the ice will be longer and so on, but the atmospheric temperature would somewhat balance each others, right? Still, they are right that it might be something problematic here, but we should continue the struggle to become climate neutral. The skeptics might find this normal, but it is in fact disturbing that most of December actually was pretty warm and without warning changed till this colder and snowier weather. THAT is the problem, the weather is getting unstable and more unpredictable. And they don't see it, idiots.

Anyway, the political landscape seems to favor the greenparty as they appear to become the third largest party in the next election. I don't like them. They struck me as, unreasonable. They don't like nuclear power, no more exploting of water as that destroy the wildlife, the sun doesn't work in Sweden (it's completely dark in some parts of Sweden at the moment) and the wind is not enough spread as the people like it, but not near them. Where the hell are we gonna get our energy? And then that they are a city party with access to collective transportations and I'm raised 7km from my hometown centrum and then 4 miles to the bigger cities and they don't see the need of a car (and apperentely one of the spokepersons travels with flight every week to be with her familiy while the other drives a SUV, hypocritic feelings anyone?). At least it could be worse, they could have been a religious party, and the only one in the Swedish parliement are kd and they are walking on the edge.

Problem with them is that they have lined up with the left party and Social democrats. And I don't have much over for the left party except the thought that their view on the society when it has completely reformed is a very healthy view. Unfortunately it doesn't work at the moment. Maybe later. And don't get me started on the Social democrats. I would like to like them, but teaming up with V and Mp makes me so dislike them, and they frankly are not giving me a future to strive for. Both V and Mp does that, but I don't approve there methods to get there, while I understand S's methods, but not the end result. So I'm forced to go to the central-right alliance. Supporting the Fp, as they have had a past with good ideas, and still do, even if it somehow obscured by some in the party at the moment and have been one of the true social liberal parties in Sweden. So I have to stick with M who no one has any idea where they are, are they social conservative, social liberal or something else, C which I don't like for some reason, could be there strange energy politics and their party leader that don't seems to understand politics and lastly kd, the party I never will vote for or understand. Mostly out of the believe we shall not mix religion and politics, no moral preachers based on their religion thank you.

So at the moment the center-green is leading with 9%, 51-42. It's 9 month till the election. So a lot of things can happen. Unfortunately for Fp, I voted for the losing side at the last national election. Still they have the chance to regain it even if it looks bleak at the moment. During other years before election the opposition usually lead, but then for the running up to the election the it gets more even as the campaign starts. Mostly because people choose sides later and later which gives a lot of statistical errors (lucky I took that statistical course now, right? Beware that this is a huge ironic comment). I still have faith, and it would be more democratic to actually reelect them to keep S away from the government so that we get a little bit stability on th echanges done by the alliance as well a slap in S face so that they could come up with some better politics. At the moment they just don't cut it.
