Reseadräggning

Reseadräggning is a Swedish term that translates roughly to "traveling scum" or "traveling riffraff." It is a derogatory term used to describe individuals who are perceived as vagrant, unhygienic, or disruptive, particularly when traveling. The term often carries connotations of social undesirability and a lack of respect for public spaces or fellow travelers.

Historically, the term may have been associated with groups or individuals who traveled without a fixed abode, often for economic or social reasons. In modern usage, it can be applied to a variety of situations, from individuals panhandling or loitering at train stations and airports to those exhibiting boisterous or inconsiderate behavior on public transport. The perception of who constitutes "reseadräggning" can be subjective and influenced by societal attitudes towards homelessness, poverty, and public order.

The use of the term is generally considered offensive and is not a neutral descriptor. It reflects a judgmental attitude towards people based on their appearance, perceived social status, or behavior in public. Discussions around "reseadräggning" often touch upon issues of social exclusion, urban planning, and the management of public spaces, but the term itself is inherently negative and stigmatizing.
