Merit Wager wrote that Finland's Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen had said that Finland should not accept traditions, cultures, or customs that limited girls' freedom. According to the Swedish translation that Wager shared, Valtonen believed that girls and women should be able to decide over their own lives, and that religious or cultural norms should not be used to restrict their freedom. Wager also recounted Valtonen's statement that the National Coalition Party wanted to ban face-covering garments, such as the burqa and niqab, in schools and other educational institutions. Valtonen had said that the government led by the National Coalition Party had strengthened the rights of girls and women by more clearly criminalizing forced marriages and female genital mutilation. She had described female genital mutilation as violence and said that every girl had the right to bodily integrity. According to Wager's account, Valtonen also emphasized that equality, individual freedom, and human rights should not be overridden by references to religion, culture, or tradition. Every girl should have the right to be seen, heard, dream, and shape her future based on her own desires, she had said. #Jämställdhet #MänskligaRättigheter #KvinnorsRättigheter (translated)

The economist 𝕏 🇸🇪 wrote that the capital gains tax on real estate was unreasonable because the purchase price was not adjusted for inflation, while the selling price was increased. As an example, the writer took a house that was sold for 7 million kronor after being purchased for 2 million 20 years earlier. According to the writer, the capital gain would then be calculated at 5 million kronor and the state would receive 1.1 million, despite the fact that the state had not contributed to the increase in value. #reavinstskatt #bostadsmarknad #inflation (translated)

Daniel Schatz stated that this year's Nobel Peace Prize, in his opinion, should have gone to someone who has done the most good for humanity through peace work. He described the laureate Navi Pillay as a leftist activist and a prominent representative of international activism focusing on Israel. Schatz accused the Norwegian Nobel Committee of rewarding political activism instead of peace efforts and claimed that the prize had long been detached from Nobel's will. In an article in Aftonbladet, he suggested that the prize should be moved to Sweden or abolished and wrote that the Norwegians were not up to the task. #Fredspris #Nobelpriset #Politik (translated)

E wrote that the segment was about the assault on a young, lone female police officer during the riots in Paris. According to him, she had been kicked to the ground and received kicks to her face and body, while someone shouted that she should be killed.

E argued that Matthieu Vallet clearly dismissed the description of the events as school protests and instead pointed out left-wing extremists belonging to LFI as well as hooligans and criminals. E agreed with Vallet's call to name things by their proper names and described the events as riots and serious threats to democracy. #Paris #Demokrati #Misshandel (translated)
