So glad you called that out, I was about to do the same thing. The authors had extremely narrow and simplistic views, especially considering that they carry such lofty tiles as Philosopher and Writer. And at the end of the day, its their narrow views that keep them from seeing the things that will keep their [boring and soul-less] vision of the future from coming to be: I'm thinking of the fact that when people are left to network while the government shrinks they tend to organize criminally. Power vacuums get filled unless you are way more creative than these guys.

But back to parent's flag: Its really easy to see where the right-wing politics from in Sweden and other scandinavian countries by reading this, even though I presume that those guys would consider themselves socially liberal. Its completely infested with unfounded cultural superiority rhetoric.
