17th of September is a general election day in Sweden. Political parties booths are everywhere and many trees are being slaughtered to keep up with the demand for paper. Their foot workers are polite but I really can’t relate with them much. Some seem to be as clueless as the nearest drunk looking at the crowds through glazed eyes.

Today I was asked by one of them doing ant work for the Vänsterpartiet (Left Party) if I wanted to see Lars Ohly live in some day I can’t remember. Politely I informed that I had to go on with my life, and lied saying I was sorry. But what I should have really asked is which ancient history museum was Lars going to be displayed on. After all, Stalinists are supposed to have gone the way of the dinosaur and their only place in our time is under museums bright lights next to a plaque with the words “Dinosaurs roamed the world free and subjugated millions on a whim. Extinct at the end of the 20th century”.
