"Swedish government accused of trying to ‘outlaw poverty’ over begging ban plans"
theguardian.com/world/2024/oct

This is another example of the ongoing dismantling of human rights in Sweden.

The current Swedish government is doing this together with the "Sweden Democrats" party, rooted in Nazism. But we are not supposed to talk about that.

I personally do *not* like the ongoing creation of a police state. I am ashamed of my fellow Swedish citizens who voted for this shitty, spineless government.

They are pretty clever to bring this out while talking about that no one should have to travel around Europe and beg for a living.

I think very few would have problems with that. But what most doesn’t consider is that there are plenty of situations that could be outlawed by this.

Asking for help should never be illegal.
