I feel that I have to treat last post at greater length. First of all, I am not a pacifist (as Lennon was). I believe that sometimes wars can be justified, but only if we are being attacked ourselves and/or it is in our own interest to take to action. I do not believe it [...]

Why sane Libertarians consider religious Conservatives to be morons
Posted in America, Oceanica, tagged Conservatism, Liberal, Libertarianism, Politics on October 30, 2008 | 8 Comments »
Bill Maher is a Libertarian and a stand-up comedian. He’s so right on point on this one. America – together with other former colonies *cough Australia cough cough* is a (quote) young and dumb country (end quote) and they have so many people believing that the world is a pancake and [...]
It’s an amazing global world
Posted in Africa, America, Asia, Oceanica, Scandinavia, tagged Capitalism, Globalization, Liberal, Liberalism, Libertarianism, Politics on October 27, 2008 | 44 Comments »
I just think the world is extraordinary. I mean get this – there are two visitors on my page seperated apart by great distances and they have a discussion about their differences and similarities. One is from the States and the other from Australia. They are debating economy and politics on a blog whose owner [...]
Louis CK “Everything’s amazing, nobody’s happy”
Posted in Africa, America, Asia, Europe, Oceanica, Scandinavia, The Middle East, tagged Conan O'Brian, Louis C K, Politics on October 25, 2008 | 31 Comments »
Louis C K was visiting Conan O’Brian some weeks ago talking about that we might need some of the problems with our economy that we have now.
I think he’s on to something here. This is extremely apparent when it comes to Iceland, a country that has turned from being a poor icy rock in the [...]
Education for whom (and for what purpose)?
Posted in America, Oceanica, tagged Comparative and International Education, education, homeschooling on October 3, 2008 | 4 Comments »
I study economics and school systems, most of the people in my class are pretty left-wingish and would not agree with the homeschooling idea (or any idea at all concerning private initiatives in the education sector), but for me freedom of choice is one of the most important pillars for modern education and it is [...]
Should the news media endorse political parties?
Posted in Oceanica, Scandinavia on May 12, 2008 | 4 Comments »
The blogger Poneke, New Zeeland, is writing an interesting post about media endorsements to political parties on his page today. This is indeed a very important topic to discuss. As a free market-nut I do of course support freedom of the press, and I am totally against all sorts of governmental support to all kinds [...]

The green food crisis
Posted in Africa, America, Asia, Europe, Oceanica, Scandinavia, The Middle East on April 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
The world is facing a crisis. Remember my contribution when I wrote about why Icelandic food is so expensive? Well the same goes for the rest of the world. Food prices are skyrocketing.
Foodstuffs have gone up 41 percent in price since October 2007 globally, pushing many people over the line from poverty into privation or [...]
Cultural Imperialism
Posted in Africa, America, Asia, Europe, Oceanica, Scandinavia, The Middle East on April 14, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Cultural Imperialism – just the word cause hatred and anger in the left-wing camp. Why is that? I would probably call myself a cultural imperialist. If it means that we spread the values of individual freedom and democracy to places in the world where these values are being questioned I’m all in favor. How can [...]
The Jante Law is killing me

Is there anything more obnoxious than envy and hatred towards a person’s success? In English it is important to differ between jealousy and envy. But what is the distinction? Well, according to Gerrod Parrott jealousy concerns something one has and is afraid of losing, while envy concerns something one does not have and either he [...]
So depressive …

A new phenomenon is taking over Sweden – the fashion blogs. I don’t know how huge this is abroad but in Sweden it has really exploded on the market. As we all know Fashion is a multi-billion-dollar industry that has considerable impact on the way ordinary people clothe themselves. As fashion is trend-driven and fashion [...]
Development and cultures
Posted in Africa, America, Asia, Europe, Oceanica, Scandinavia, The Middle East on March 14, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I have been discussing cultures and especially the Muslim practice of circumcision of women. Some people write and think like this: “i feel you are being ignorant to the practices that other cultures have”. I hate this thinking. I hate leftiest, hippies, liberals (in an American political scale), anthropologists, and other scums who believe that [...]
About Individual Freedom …

The European countries are proud of their democracy. Most of them shouldn’t be. As a matter of fact, values of democracy and freedom of speech in European countries are on the low, and there are (obviously) a lot of people who want to infringe it even more.
People go to prison in European states for saying [...]

Gang racism / Gang war
Posted in America, Europe, Oceanica on January 9, 2008 | 18 Comments »
It seems that the violent Latino gang MS-13 has been wrecking some war memorial in New Haven, USA. Racial problems seem to be serious thing everywhere.
We do know that MS-13 targets black and white Americans for racist hate crimes. Yet, I do not need spray paint on memorials to show me that MS-13 wants to [...]
A sad reality
Posted in Africa, America, Asia, Europe, Oceanica, Scandinavia, The Middle East on December 23, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Is the world getting dumber and dumber? Sadly, (as my friend Robin Leijon tends to say) it seems that the broad mass of the people is not exactly getting brighter at least, to the contrary, if we look at what people in general are interested in we get a depressing outcome. We live in the [...]
Just dig through the layers, dammit!

You know, I am such a traditionalist when it comes to holidays like Christmas. I’m not a Christian myself, but I put a lot of value in being with my family and so on during Christmas. Certain days of the year we have our holidays and we put certain values in them. I guess the [...]
Why do we need Internet communities anyway?
Posted in Africa, America, Asia, Europe, Oceanica, Scandinavia, The Middle East on December 5, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Since the Internet became an open media for the public, many different ways of web communication have been born. The IRC was very popular a few years ago, and blogging has become quite the necessity. Not everyone likes to blog though, most people like to stay in touch in a lot less formal way. With [...]
Something lifechanging …

”We all take different paths in life, but no matter where we go, we take a little of each other everywhere.”
Humans, as we know them, change almost every other minute, adapting to the changes in their aura. In the course of our lifetime we undergo so many natural metamorphosis processes, that it is harder [...]
Real Men Don’t Rape
Posted in Africa, America, Asia, Europe, Oceanica, Scandinavia, The Middle East on September 8, 2007 | 4 Comments »
One thing in the world that you could actually pinpoint out that I hate the most is raping. A good slogan I follow is; “Real Men Don’t Rape” – simply because those who are real men know how to treat a lady right so she wants to, consentaneously, have sexual intercourse *wow what a term* [...]
