Noah Rafat completely agreed with Richard Jomshof and described Hawar's statements as disgusting. Rafat wrote that his parents came from Kurdistan to Sweden and that the family there had a future. He interpreted Hawar's call for Kurds to be proud and fill Swedish cities as an expression of putting loyalty to Kurdistan above Sweden. Rafat also argued that it was an insult to Sweden and the Swedish people to claim a Kurdish identity while simultaneously describing Swedishness as a construction. Rafat wrote that he himself prioritized his Swedish identity and loyalty to Sweden and raised his children to assimilate into the Swedish nation. Those who placed their Kurdish identity first could do so in Kurdistan, according to him. He described himself as a proud Kurd, but even prouder Swede, emphasizing that it was an active choice. #Sverige #Kurdistan #Identitet (translated)

Daniel Schatz wrote that the criticism of wearing folk costumes from other countries at the opening of the Parliament, according to him, was about respect for the Swedish state ceremony, not about denying any culture. He described the opening of Parliament as a shared and inclusive ceremony where formal attire or folk costume was appropriate. Schatz referred to Bakircioglu himself saying that he wore a Kurdish folk costume dedicated to his father and as a symbol for families with similar experiences. According to Schatz, the choice of clothing was therefore a conscious message, but he believed that the ceremony should be about Sweden, democracy, and Parliament rather than personal identity political statements. He also wrote that the significance of the clothing choice could not be denied and that not all criticism should be dismissed as racism. #SvenskKultur #Riksdag #Respekt (translated)

Idag läser vi Expressen ledare — hur en attityd i förra söndagens Agenda röjde en kvardröjande kultur. ”De kan skriftligen lova en politisk vilde att fördjupa samarbetet med ett kurdiskt parti för att vinna en omröstning i riksdagen, inga problem!” https://t.co/Eltz0gni0l #politk #kultur #media

@idagabrielsson Frågan borde väl vara vad NI håller på med? Förra rödgröna mandatperioden krävdes det EN kurdisk ledamot för att Magda skulle tvingas köpa tillbaka nycklarna till Rosenblad av kurdisk gerilla för över tre miljarder. Hur många somalier har ni och MP tillsammans nu igen? https://t.co/hkaoprvbBq #politik #Sverige #kurdisk
