I admit I read a bit of your post history and discovered that you’re trans. Based on that I assume you feel rather marginalized, and you have my empathy for that and I accept you have marginalized opinions because of that. However, I’ll still argue against you because I think you’re badly misled.
You’re actually the one who’s kind of constantly shifting away from what I’m talking about:
Yes, because you’re talking about the wrong things.
You claim that Scandinavia is socialist.
I actually don’t. I said social democracy. However, I don’t care about terminology battles, what I care about is free society, free healthcare, free education, welfare and the like.
Please stop trying to push this “Imperialism” as some kind of argument. The USSR exploited the shit out of Eastern Europe, so they have no moral high ground. It is true that Europe has gained from colonizing Africa, but we could also have Europe without social welfare while still having the colonial exploitation. So it’s sort of irrelevant.
I say again, that Finland invaded the USSR
When you say this, please preface it with the context: USSR invaded Finland 2 years prior and left the country desiring for revenge. It’s crucially important here.
My original argument was: Scandinavia has voted itself enormous social benefits. Better than the ones in the USSR or China. Also better than the ones in the US, for that matter. Vote for your rights, people.
