Wasting the cops’ time by convincing them that you taught the bird to recite my_crimes.txt

Last year an elderly neighbour of ours saw a car with Polish license plates parked in the driveway of a house down the road. That upset her so much that she spent the entire next week telling everyone she met to make sure their doors are locked and their valuables safe.

Denmark finally has a new regime after a record 70 days of post-election negotiations. In the end centrist kingmaker Lars Løkke Rasmussen and his moderate party had to accept an across the aisle broad coalition with the Social Democrats, the Radical Left (moderate right-of centre) and the Socialist People’s Party (social democracy with more windmills and less chuds) supported by the demsoc Red-Greens and the green radlib Alternative.

The government platform has been released. It has good and bad parts.

The good parts:

• Free transit for people under 22
• Free dental care for at-risk adults with a promise to expand free dental care to cover all adults within 10 years
• Half sales tax on food and no sales tax on fruit and vegetables
• Better funding for schools
• Actually enforcing existing animal welfare laws against factory pig farms
• Making it easier to build public housing in Copenhagen, including direct rent subsidies
• A more respectful treatment of Greenland and the Faroe Islands
• Looking into possibly maybe in the future tax profits from selling homes
• Increased inheritance tax for the rich
• Bringing back the Great Prayer Day Holiday by 2030, just in time for the next eclection, but only if the labour supply had increased enough to cover the
• Maybe possibly looking into considering the possibility of giving low and middle income households subsidies for replacing ICE vehicles with EV’s
• Various initiative against homophobia and transphobia, including better investigation (ie. doing any investigation at all) of hate crimes.
• A food security strategy to increase the domestic supply of fruit and vegetables

The bad stuff

• Lower corporate taxes
• Lower income taxes on the rich
• Spending 5 percent of GDP on three military, more than during the height of the Cold War
• Saving 30.000 public sector jobs through AI horseshit
• Giving people the “option” of a “digital health check”, leveraging “the works best health data”. I smell so much bullshit here.
• A “deportation reform” to deport more “criminal foreigners”
• Initiatives to fight “religious dominance” and “social control” in educational settings, ie. islamophobic witch hunts
• “Challenging” international human rights conventions (better than leaving them altogether but still really atrocious)
• Putting “criminal foreigners” in jail in Kosovo
• “Smart border controls” which sounds really ominous
• Full-throttled Slava Ukraini bullshit
• Putting representatives of “local businesses” on school boards
• The police didn’t want to do their job and closed a ton of cases while lying about having investigated. This became a major scandal recently and their laziness will now be rewarded with more money

There are lots of good things in here, at least a lot better than what we’ve had before. I am convinced they will do all the bad stuff and then some but I have no confidence that they’re going to even try doing half of the good stuff.

The new regime has a lot of internal disagreements and I expect everyone will be ratfucking everyone to their left as soon as they get into office. That’s how it went 15 years ago when the Socialist People’s Party was in government last time. I would not be surprised if this constellation doesn’t survive a full term.

The worst people in the country are mad about the brew regime so at least that’s something.
