Peter Imanuelsen (PeterSweden)
Is Sweden an utopia?
El periodista sueco Peter Imanuelsen (PeterSweden), uno de los profesionales más perseguidos en su país, ha publicado en su web un artículo en el que describe, con tanta contundencia como profusión de datos, la terrible realidad que esconde el Gobierno de Estocolmo: “Suecia es un desastre socialista”. Reproducimos, en inglés, los primeros párrafos de su ensayo.

Think of Sweden. What’s the first thing that comes to mind? Beautiful people and nature, peaceful societies, one of the happiest countries on earth, welfare and state provided care for all, utopia provided by the socialist state. Really?
After Trump’s now famous “last night in Sweden” comments at his rally in Florida, the left, liberals, mainstream media hacks and the Swedish government were quickly peddling the narrative that Trump had no idea what he was talking about. They were ridiculing the notion that there were any problems in the socialist utopia of a country called Sweden.
In their little liberal leftist bubble they all seemed ignorantly unaware of the reality of what is actually happening in Sweden.
The Swedish government PR machine together with mainstream media went into full spin trying to prove how peaceful, tolerant and wonderful Sweden’s multicultural socialist utopia is.
Even Carl Bildt, foreign minister in Sweden’s previous government that decided to open the flood gates to refugees tweeted “Terror attack in Sweden? What has he been smoking? Questions abound”.
Elsewhere on twitter, official Swedish government accounts were tweeting and trying to spin the narrative of how peaceful Sweden is.
Of course, as most probably know by now, the very next day there were riots and cars set on fire in a Stockholm suburb called Rinkeby which is one of Sweden’s many no-go zones.
We even had the Swedish integration minister Ylva Johansson caught spouting fake news on BBC regarding rape statistics in Sweden. She claimed that it’s been going down and down, but in actual reality it’s been going up. In fact, over the last 3 years there’s been nearly a 100% increase in sexual assaults in Sweden. But let’s not let that little inconvenient fact get in the way!
Sweden has been hailed as a model country by the left for a long time.
The truth however is completely the opposite. Sweden is a socialist disaster. And for all the liberals out there, it’s very authoritarian as well. I would even go so far as saying that Sweden is bordering on being a communist country. Sweden has one of the highest taxes in the world. According to the Institute for Private economy at Swedbank, a typical household consisting of one sole income bringer with a monthly salary of SEK 25 000 (circa $ 2 840), will pay SEK 17 200 (circa $ 1 954) in tax when all taxes are included. That is a tax rate of 68.8%. Source: https://www.swedbank.se/privat/?contentid=CID_682697
So with this enormous tax rate you would expect Sweden to have exceptional public services. And in one sense they were fairly good back in the day when Sweden was a homogenous country.
However, when they opened the flood gates for mass migration public services have completely gone down the drain meanwhile violent crime has gone off the charts.
From my own personal experience, I can tell you that the roads have been getting worse and worse. There are reports of women having to give birth to babies in cars because the nearest hospital with a maternity unit has closed down. Sweden has the lowest amount of hospital beds available per 100 000 inhabitants in the whole of the EU (Source: Eurostat). It is well known that elderly care is going down the drain in Sweden, in one case pensioners are forced to live in temporary container buildings. Meanwhile, all of the newly arrived refugees get to live in mansions and top hotels that have been converted into asylum homes…
