What do you think modern Sweden?

[Kar-Esseria]

Honestly, their whole government has gone insane. They're so afraid of offending people they've outlawed just about everything that makes people different.

Hard to believe they were raping their way across Europe 1200 years ago.

They haven't "outlawed everything that makes people different". You make Sweden sound like Saudi Arabia.

[Popkenland]

Sweden shows that accepting masses of unskilled and ideologically opposed migrants and refugees can destroy a nation in less than a decade.

Asking all NS'rs of any stripe; what do you think of when you hear of modern Sweden; and how do you respond to the statement that it is the new rape capitol of Europe (with Germany as a close second)?

Modern nations have forgotten that unrestricted immigration, made up of people who don't share your cultural values and who do not assimilate, is a bad idea. Clearly the examples of Rome and the Native Americans were just not enough. Sweden has been kind of enough to volunteer its country to provide an example we can witness on TV from the comfort of our own homes. Not one we are forced to read about in a stuffy history book. Thanks Sweden!

[The East Marches]

Wasn't aware the the people or the state controlled the means of production...

I though socialism was when the companies workers controlled the means of production, but in any event, last I saw Ericsson was still listed on NASDAQ

Workers owning the means of production is just stock options for employees.

[The Emerald World]

The only things that I know that Sweden is famous for are IKEA, socialism, gummy fish, and meatballs.

I think you may want to fix your title and flesh out the op. It's a bit lacking.

[Harime Nui]

"Not a fan."

[Sungai Pusat]

...it's a nice country?

Alright, I guess, I dunno.

There's the news article suggesting that it's how "rape" is being counted, really, and you'd probably have to ask someone who's both a Swede and a woman to more properly give an image of the nation because I'm neither.

[Jochistan]

Frustrating.

Frustratingly liberal bleeding heart progressives. Frustratingly narrow minded, puritanical and ungrateful Wahhabis, and a frustratingly far right response from everyone else.

It's like the country version of The Room. Nothing is done right.

They suffer for their own stupidity. And it is sweet.

[Dahon]

It has higher living standards than most of my country, yes?

[Aethrys]

Their odd views on physical space requirements. They're like the opposite extreme of the japanese. I just kind of stare when people post pictures on imgur of swedes at bus stops, 5 people waiting for the same bus and the fifth is almost at the end of the block! Can any swedes around here explain how you guys handle things like lines at restaurants and movie theaters and so on? Genuinely curious.

[Ragnarheim]

FUCKING SOFT.

[Viking Confederacy]

Reindeer is delicious, you can keep the lute Fisk

Agreed.

Aquavit is okay, too.

Quite hilarious. Makes me wonder whatever happened to the glorious varyagi

Generally when I read people saying on NSG "X fact" I always think, could you please show some evidence to support your claims.

Then I start to think how your OP could be expanded upon more.

[Lautrec-]

Welcome to NS OP, here are 2 things that absolutely suck

1. Flag-less nations
2. One-liner threads

[Gravlen]

Asking all NS'rs of any stripe; what do you think of when you hear of modern Sweden;

IKEA, Eurovision Song Contest, The bridge, bacon, equality, better posters than the OP, and faux poutrage about puported liberal policies which may or may not have any roots in reality...

and how do you respond to the statement that it is the new rape capitol of Europe (with Germany as a close second)?

I'd respond with: Please stop spreading misinformation by regurgitating purposefully inflammatory statements made by ignorant people with no regard for the actual facts.

If you're going to compare the rates of sexual assault in Sweden with the situation in other countries, remember to account for
- The differences in law
- The differences in reporting rate (keeping in mind that crime victimization surveys in Sweden are not showing an increase in crime over time)
- The differences in method of counting and registering crimes

Yeah... suffering... that's the word...

It's a traditional weapon of mass destruction from the late middle ages, and you shouldn't just discard old traditions (or old W_sMD)

Fair point, carry on then.
