While this is unambiguously an improvement but unfortunately, Vansterpartiet has stayed relatively steady. The Social Democrats will certainly dominate the coalition government to follow.

Sweden remains complacent with its third way neoliberal welfare state, and it seems a return to the status quo will follow.

Note:(This time, we are specifically looking to add more women and genderdiverse folk to the team, as well as people from outside of Anglo-North America, to foster a larger variety of perspectives.)

Hello All,

We are still in the stages of looking for about 2-3 moderators to join the team. Several responsibilities include managing the queue, engaging with mod mail, moderating threads, and removing posts as necessary. Unfortunately you may be prompted to ban or mute people, but of course we’ll discuss each case individually with the team. We are currently experimenting with a least privilege solution to moderating, so you will likely start with bare bones permissions and earn more with time and trust. To qualify, send a modmail. You will then be asked a selection of questions before a final decision is made. Also, if your Reddit post and comment history is off, kindly turn it on for the remainder of consideration and shut it off afterward.

Any comments or concern, please reply in a comment or ask in a modmail directly.

Sincerely,

Mod team

Due to the number of participants that have pointed out concerns related to the excessive amount of Hasan-posting and outrage-farming, we have implemented a new trash Sunday system. From now on, posts about Hasan, streamers, and other such public figures, will be limited to Sundays only.

Even on Sundays we will be more stringent on what makes good content. Make the argument the focus, not the streamer/presenter. "Hasan makes the liberals angry" will still be removed, but "socialized healthcare makes liberals angry" (presented by Hasan) will be allowed. Similarly, posting generic outrage about Kamala Harris for example, will always be prohibited as she is irrelevant to leftism.

We hope these changes will improve the experience of engaging here, and as always, welcome feedback and comments

Yet another case of private companies choosing profit over literally allowing people to live. A public and nonprofit pharmaceutical option should be made available to everyone.

Greetings comrades!

After a few incidents where redditors have assumed we are a DSA/US centric subreddit, the mod team has decided to do an overhaul of the flairing system to better reflect the international nature of the sub. The current flairing system, including the Democratic Party of the United States logo to mean "progressive" and including only the Democratic Party of the US, DSA and CPUSA as party flairs and not other parties internationally, is a legacy holdover from old management.

In doing so, after discussion of various options, we decided on removing all party flairs and instead, pivoting more strongly towards ideologies.

Furthermore, we are also thinking of adding geographical indicators into the flairing system and we will welcome ideas on how to flag that you are not from the US, as that has been a source of frustration for them. We lean towards options other than adding flairs for different national political parties, as vetting by the mod team is required for each, and it may lean western, but if you think you have a convincing argument, feel free to give it. Otherwise, we have no preferences at this moment.

As a first step, the removal of the offending flairs has been completed. Old users with these flairs have not been affected, yet. We ask all users that currently use the CPUSA, DSA, or Democratic Party logos in their flairs to switch over within the week. We welcome feedback on this direction, as well as suggestions for which ideologies you wish for us to add flairs for, critiques of other flairs, and icons/emojis you wish for us to add into the flairing system.

Genuinely the funniest outcome. Greens confirmed to not run.
