Summary

In Sweden, it's graduation day, and the students are choosing to carry the Eritrean flag instead of the Swedish flag. What does this have to do with Sweden? Is it racist? Or is it a tribute to their parents?


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Nothing that reminds me more of like Positive Association in Sweden.
00:00:04.100 It's everybody's graduating studenten, we call it.
00:00:08.640 It's summer, it's getting warm, it's a long break coming up.
00:00:11.980 It's like it's the best time to be in Sweden kind of thing, right?
00:00:15.100 Long summer break, long, wonderful nights and stuff like that.
00:00:18.720 And now, of course, because of our wonderful diversity and addition,
00:00:23.080 our spicy additions to the country, now, of course,
00:00:25.660 we have a lot of non-Swedish people celebrating studenten.
00:00:30.000 That's why we're choosing Eritrea's flag to celebrate our graduation.
00:00:35.260 We want to show respect.
00:00:37.960 That's right.
00:00:38.660 Not to Sweden.
00:00:41.020 At the end of the day, I think this is a good,
00:00:42.620 I'm glad they're not like embracing Sweden, right?
00:00:45.180 We've talked about this.
00:00:46.580 We want them not to merge and integrate with Sweden.
00:00:50.200 It's going to be easier for us if they consider themselves outsiders than insiders,
00:00:54.740 but a lot of the normally conservatives are like,
00:00:56.380 why don't they wave the Swedish flag?
00:00:58.140 And so, again, we're agreeing with liberals for the wrong reason.
00:01:01.740 Check out this.
00:01:02.560 They come here from Eritrea.
00:01:05.920 And it shows a kind of respect back to them.
00:01:09.420 They come, presumably she's talking about her parents here.
00:01:12.560 They come here to Sweden from Eritrea.
00:01:15.960 And so we're showing a kind of respect back to those people.
00:01:18.880 Respect back to them.
00:01:20.060 You want to celebrate your parents that came from a different country
00:01:31.400 and have fought their way to Sweden to do everything that's possible for them
00:01:37.900 so that us, meaning these girls, get the best possible life, essentially.
00:01:43.500 That's what she says.
00:01:43.940 So we want to celebrate them.
00:01:48.880 Where they come from and where we come from.
00:01:53.620 So they know that.
00:01:54.480 Yeah, I'm not sure if these gals are born in Sweden
00:01:57.740 because we know that that doesn't make them Swedish.
00:02:00.340 But it's fascinating to see which side they choose.
00:02:04.200 They choose their own ethnic group.
00:02:06.360 They've never even been there, presumably,
00:02:08.260 but they choose this over Sweden.
00:02:10.640 And the interviewer asks,
00:02:15.940 and why don't you want to bring the Swedish flag
00:02:18.160 when you're celebrating your graduation?
00:02:20.760 Because you want the flag from where your roots are from,
00:02:27.220 which it's like, I actually agree, right?
00:02:30.700 But this is like, this is a sign of conquest.
00:02:34.040 This is them showing we're here and we're taking over.
00:02:38.040 We hate your country.
00:02:39.020 We disrespect Swedes.
00:02:40.080 We don't care about you.
00:02:40.960 We're not going to show you any respect.
00:02:42.400 I know, sure, I know you paid for education.
00:02:44.960 You made sure that we got all these wonderful things
00:02:47.740 that presumably they're there for.
00:02:49.640 What's their thank you?
00:02:51.100 Fuck you.
00:02:51.860 That's their thank you.
00:02:52.880 And she says here,
00:02:53.660 all my relatives, my entire family,
00:02:55.980 extended family, is from Eritrea.
00:02:58.060 They come from there.
00:03:04.080 This is not interesting.
00:03:05.700 It's like comforting.
00:03:06.860 It feels safe.
00:03:08.520 I guess it's the best translation I can think of.
00:03:10.080 It feels safe.
00:03:10.860 It feels close to carry this flag, the Eritrean flag.
00:03:15.000 And I appreciate Sweden, she says,
00:03:17.080 and what everything Sweden has done for me.
00:03:18.860 But that's not enough for me to bring the flag,
00:03:26.680 meaning the Swedish flag.
00:03:27.640 So it's not enough what they've done.
00:03:29.100 I will just hearken back to my ethnic.
00:03:34.320 I feel safe when I have this flag.
00:03:37.200 It's something, in other words,
00:03:38.360 and you know that that's because ethnically,
00:03:40.160 this is what they connect with.
00:03:41.700 They know that they're foreigners.
00:03:43.640 They know that this is not their home country.
00:03:45.580 But it's just, it's to spit in the face of Swedes.
00:03:52.040 That's what it is, right?
00:03:53.580 That's what it is.
00:03:54.680 Here's a little classic student celebration,
00:03:58.400 or graduation celebration,
00:04:00.840 in central Gothenburg.
00:04:03.060 I just wonder why you don't have the Swedish flag.
00:04:30.060 Why don't you have the Swedish flag?
00:04:35.900 And then her retort is,
00:04:37.280 are you racist?
00:04:38.840 While she's waving the flag of Kurdistan.
00:04:42.360 He says, I'm walking around asking people.
00:04:50.760 We're living in Sweden,
00:04:52.080 and therefore we don't want to celebrate Sweden.
00:04:53.820 Why don't you have the Swedish flag?
00:05:00.940 Well, are you racist?
00:05:02.040 Is the retort.
00:05:02.780 So they know what to say to these kids.
00:05:04.780 Completely programmed.
00:05:14.660 Okay, that's gold.
00:05:20.080 He walks up to the police.
00:05:21.080 Can you shoot fireworks right now?
00:05:23.200 No, it's not allowed.
00:05:24.180 Do they do anything about it?
00:05:25.100 Of course not.
00:05:26.520 Here's the spicy diversity,
00:05:28.140 doing whatever the hell they want on our streets.
