It's time to face facts. #Norway is slated for even more #liberalization. What's this mean?
Basically one of the most bonkers parties #fremskrittspartiet - which is like the #republicans of Norway, in that they lie a lot and use emotional manipulation to vilify #foreigners and #immigrants - is popular with the youth.
That's because the youth are more into individualism and making money than ever before. Essentially we're politically destined to becoming more like the #UK or the #USA.

We might even see the #denationalization of #naturalresources, which has given #Norwegian people economic stability and decentralization.
Then we could finally compete with #Sweden who has been the king of #liberalization in the north. They are also the crime and poverty leaders of the north.

In essence, they could deal with it by dealing with poverty, but as with most #westernized countries: that ain't happening, chief, because it would change the economy nationwide - again - and people would be irritated.
Instead, we turn more #authoritarian to deal with the issue and give the government even more power too.

But it's okay, because a 100 years of #liberalization and #NewPublicManagement has lead to the defunding of #PublicEducation - making people politically and historically ignorant.
Some old codger says "I remember my great-great grandad was tortured and killed by the Nazis for owning a jazz record", and a young guy says "stop being a #libtard, grandad."

These same words have been used by #fascists, #despots and #oligarchs all around the world - from the cradle that is Africa, to the "new world" and back again.
#Putin just wants #russification to replace #westernization though. It's hard #imperialism vs #softimperialism.
Our conqueror is the #USA. But our destroyer will be ourselves, as we forget all about what made #Norway great.
