The quarrel continues after this weekend's crescendo, when Morgan Johansson pointed out his critics as “the upper class”.
“The upper class has never tolerated being questioned, especially not by the labor movement”, the Minister of Justice tweeted on Sunday after being criticized for an attack on the bourgeois opinion leader Ivar Arpi.
The S-top has subsequently followed up with posts about his working background and among other things highlighted that his “grandfather was born a statesman”.
Now he again receives criticism from bourgeois editorial writers.
Paulina Neuding writes in an editorial in Svenska Dagbladet that the type of rhetoric that designates ideological opponents as “upper class” is “significantly older than Morgan Johansson's tweeting”.
“In communist Poland, where my parents grew up but were forced to leave, displeasing voices were regularly made 'upper class' by a government that claimed to represent the working class. And that no matter what social group they actually belonged to.”
She calls the grip “embarrassing”:
“Now I am appointed 'upper class' by Sweden's Minister of Justice, and thus a man of a kind who 'never tolerated being questioned' by the 'labor movement' – here represented by the Prime Minister himself. “
An editorial in Göteborgsposten on Wednesday is entitled” Morgan Johansson should stop playing Trump “. In the article, Mathias Bred writes that Morgan Johansson's tweeting “is worth noting” because “it's similar to what we saw with Donald Trump in the USA”.
, and thereby undermine the foundations of democracy “, writes Mathias Bred.
He continues:
” Now Morgan Johansson is fortunately not the President of the United States. But also what a Swedish Minister of Justice says The descriptions of the Riksdag opposition as crypto-fascist can be exploited by foreign powers or extreme movements that want to harm Sweden. “
