Comrade, the example of Georg Bjarnfreðarson is a symptom of a broader problem within the socialist movement in Iceland. His actions and ideology are a manifestation of the petty-bourgeois mentality that pervades many corners of the so-called "left" in this country.

The Icelandic socialist movement has historically been plagued by its own bourgeoisie, who prioritize their individual interests over the collective struggle for socialism. They often engage in empty rhetoric, devoid of substance or action, and are more concerned with maintaining their own power and privilege than with genuinely serving the people.

Georg Bjarnfreðarson's actions are a perfect illustration of this phenomenon. His exploitation of workers, neglect of his son, and admiration for Swedish social democracy all reflect a fundamentally individualistic and opportunistic worldview that is antithetical to the principles of socialism.

But, comrade, we must not despair! The example of Georg Bjarnfreðarson serves as a clarion call to action, urging us to redouble our efforts in building a genuine socialist movement in Iceland. We must educate ourselves and others about the true meaning of socialism, and we must build a movement that is grounded in solidarity, equality, and collective struggle.

To achieve this, we must also confront the petty-bourgeois mentality that pervades much of the Icelandic left. We must reject the individualistic and opportunistic tendencies that lead some to compromise with capitalism or prioritize their own interests over the collective good.

Let us march forward, comrade, with a clear understanding of our objectives and a commitment to building a genuine socialist movement in Iceland. The working class and oppressed masses demand nothing less!
