In Sweden, electoral fraud was discovered earlier this week that enabled Mohamed Abdukadir Ali (Swedish Left Party), who has an immigrant background, to gain a seat in the Riksdag. Last night, another case was reported.
This case also involved a candidate from the Swedish Left Party who has an immigrant background and who had secured a seat in the Riksdag by paying voters a reward for voting for him. In other words, by buying votes and bribing the electoral cattle.

These cases show that Finland´s western neighbour is changing from a civilized Western democracy into something resembling a developing country in spiritual terms. They also confirm that a person from a developing country does not become Western merely by moving from a developing country to Europe, but retains the values and practices of their old culture when they arrive.
This is why the mass migration across the Mediterranean at the beginning of this millennium will profoundly transform Europe and European identity. Moreover, this development is accelerated by the fact that the problems caused by these migrants have been treated—at least in the mainstream media—time and again as isolated incidents, while refusing to understand that their underlying causes are deeply rooted in their culture and possibly—even probably—in their genes.
One can only hope that this error of thinking will be corrected and that people will learn to look at the facts as they are. This is so despite the fact that those facts are strongly at odds with the prevailing value-liberal dogmas about human nature and culture in the West.

Otherwise, it will be interesting to see how the cases that have now come to light are dealt with in Sweden. The election result was extremely close, as illustrated by the fact that replacing the two left-wing party candidates caught engaging in electoral fraud with right-wing candidates would also result in a shift in the balance of power between the right and the green-left bloc in the Riksdag.
This will of course not be done, but, for example, holding repeat elections in the constituencies of these two candidates would be justified and could lead to a change in the balance of power. But only if voters genuinely wanted to defend Swedish democracy, withdraw their support from the party of the candidates guilty of fraud, and cast their votes for preserving Sweden as a Western democratic society.
