Late to the party, but basically Sweden took the '90s-to-early-'00s “end of History” good feelings too seriously, and ended up downsizing their considerable and potent Cold War -era military into something that couldn’t actually defend the country in case of a military crisis. They’ve been scrambling to rebuild things for the last couple of years, once the events in Ukraine and increasing airspace violations on the Baltic reminded everyone that Russia is still there and still isn’t playing nicely.

It’s difficult to tell how aware Americans are that US militarism is over-the-top batshit crazy.

That reminds me of the bizarre genre of “Jesus showing up in times of need” artwork.


“God damnit, Jesus! Stop bogarting my smack!”
