Some reactions to @sweden's tweets yesterday
Not sure what to say here really, other than this is a topic I'd rather hash out in a comment thread than on 140 chars on twitter, so I made this post about it: http://adland.tv/content/sweden-worlds-most-democratic-twitter-account-dissolves-pure-anarchy
- When I tweeted a mashable link (or was it Gawker) I attracted the attention of Tomas here. Tomas thought we failed to see the funny. Tomas also wants everyone to know that we live in a free country. We don't, not in the US sense of the word though, nobody in Europe does. There's hate speech laws everywhere here, by the way, just to keep your Sweden Facts up to date.
But sure, when it's not hate speech or holocaust denial, one is entitled to any opinion. And anyone is entitled to disagree with it. 
Welcome to @Sweden where blondes believe only Jews are circumcised. #OHGODTHETRAINWRECK gawker.com/5917712/sweden…
@bisonblog @annika @dabitch She didn't say only jews are circumbcised, rather the opposite. #dontbestupid- @Vassaste_Kniven No, she didn't. She said that was the way to tell the difference between jews and non-jews #EQUALLYDUMB @bisonblog @annika
@Vassaste_Kniven Wrong forum for stupid questions about hurtful sensitive issues. @dabitch @bisonblog
@Vassaste_Kniven What was her point? Perhaps you might be able to express it better? @annika @dabitch @bisonblog- @Vassaste_Kniven Freedom of speech is the legal right to express what you think, it's not some sort of magic won't-offend-people shield.
- @Vassaste_Kniven ..and to be clear "freedom of speech" about everything doesn't actually exist in Sweden, where there are hate speech laws.
- @Vassaste_Kniven If you can't explain it, I doubt there's something to get other than what she said. @annika @dabitch @bisonblog
- @Vassaste_Kniven I have a right to express my opinion as well. It's a two-way street, also, I'm discussing with you, not her.
- This is where Tomas blocked @adland. He already blocked @Dabitch earlier.
- Other reactions on twitter? Ranging from jawdrops to "you didn't get the joke peoples". Here's a few I found.
