Daily now, I get a five to ten minute dose of Swedish reality from the YouTube channel of Sanity 4 Sweden. The guy is a direct and blunt, but he is entertaining.
Today, the topic was Afghan gentlemen in Swedish who are on some type of 'strike'.....angry over delayed visas. So some leftist party political figure came out and said what the guys need is entertainment. She didn't really specify what type of entertainment.....that they needed something positive to focus upon.
I sat there for a minute and thought about it. What ought to happen in Sweden....is some guy or gal ought to introduce Shakespeare to the Afghan guys, and bring them into a theater to produce King Lear, Macbeth, or Hamlet.
But the more you think about this, and putting 12 Afghan guys up to practicing the dozen odd parts of King Lear....it would mean that you'd have to discuss the character, the plot, why people do stupid things, and decision-making.
It makes perfect sense. The odds of this happening? Zero.
