Silence on the blog for a few days. Off to Sweden (Smaaland) to contemplate in the deep deep forests on how to join the winning team without pain...
And maybe I have. Think I got a job today. I mean I got it, now I am wondering if I should accept it. I got it the same day as The Left (Venstre - the government party) suggested that socialworkers, teahers and those of the likes within the SSP collaboration (school, social, police) should expand that collaboration to include PET (Police Intelligenge Service, think CIA; KGB; FSB, Stasi). Purpose: to cut evil at its root, or as stated: "to help prevent radicalism among certain youngsters".
The message is clear and not very reflected, it is to prevent radicalism among young muslims.
It constitutes numerous problems.
Firstly it totaly undermines the essential trust that is crucial between sociaclworkers, teachers and troubled youths.
Secondly, the idea itself is prejudice and one-eyed: I doubt it very much that the lawmakers have considered if socialworkers should report radicalism amog ethnic white youth. Meaning, a son of white thrash parents from lets say Greve, who is flirting with nationalsocialism or just a passionate member of Danish Peoples Partys Youth-organisation.
Thirdly: Its a mindfuck in the midst of liberal democracy to experience proposal with such totalitarian stem.
All in all, enough for me to consinder to turn the job down. I cannot participate in this kind of a STASI like apparatus. Torture and snitches, what else have we?
