In my opinion this is deeply messed up. #NATO clearly has a dysfunctional way of making decisions.
Is Turkey a reasonably democratic country? No.
Should Sweden be adapting Swedish laws based on the wishes of Erdogan? No.
Should Sweden be labeling certain groups as "terrorists" because Erdogan wants that? No.
All this is wrong.
Question for those who still think it's a good idea for Sweden to join NATO: will you at least admit at the whole process around it is deeply flawed?

@eliasr it really is disturbing how well fear based propaganda does work and how well people deal with doublethink: we are going to be invaded (war) so let's talk about nothing but war instead of trying saner paths.
most european governments now only are able to talk and think about their technocratic castles in the sky. if reality catches up with real problems, it hits hard and they are totally disoriented. that's the way erdogan etc. do politics, and it apparently works.
would be great if people would be left alone to call the shots of their own life ;)
