Is it normal to despise socialism?

I live in Sweden. Sweden is famous around the world for being socialist, meaning we have a strong welfare state which protects it's citizens. You may think this sounds like a good thing, but I think it sucks. Why you may ask? Because socialism has had a bad influence on the mentality of the people in this country. It has made people lazy and spoiled in the way that everyone always expect the government to fix all of their problems instead of themselves. They don't know how to act independently. Everyone is like a small child and the government is their mother.

    If the opposite of a socialist state is a state that allows it's citizens to die for the cost of insulin ampoules to treat what is generally accepted as a genetic disease, I think I know where I would rather reside.

    • I'd rather that than a place that would result in me going through trash to stay fed but eventually die of starvation...I'm looking at you, Venezuela.

  • Normal. This is exactly what I think, and even as an American, I'm pleased to see that a Swede realizes this problem.

    Hopefully, you haven't been brainwashed into feeling white guilt, or being accepting of the Muslim migrants destroying Europe either.

          Try living in a city like mine, Glasgow in the UK, we have huge areas of the city where you can walk through and rarely hear a native accent. The Govanhill area of Glasgow is hoaching (sorry heaving) with eastern Europeans particularly Romanian gypsy but there are over a hundred languages being used in Glasgow. There are other areas of the city which are hoaching with Muslims and some of them are far from nice.

          There have been Muslim paedophile groups operating in cities across the UK grooming underage girls for sex, girls who are then passed around between these groups. It's taken years for the police to get their act together and go after these groups because the people involved all play the race card.

          So Muslims are nice, maybe some, but there are far more who'd be happy to see our infidel asses burn.

            • Some of them do though. One of my father's colleagues was a Muslim man. He was just as hard-working and law abiding as anyone.

      That's what my forefathers did. Then they put a bullet in their brain.

    tecnically sweden is not socialist. It is a social democracy.
    it is basically a light socialism, very left-winged.
    Well, its normal because the things you said are the things that happen with people living in socialist/semi-socialist regime, and its obviously a bad thing. This brainwashing is a real, planned thing, and have this exact intent. i fear my country might become socialist too.

      The Nazi party was officially the NSDP == National Socialist Democrat Party. Nothing's changed since then.

        So how do you avoid being brain washed?

        Basically socialists always start by disarming the citizens first. That's why I asked. Here in American people are holding rallies in the wake of school shootings, to disarm the country. Personally I think they are playing on our fears and will do what happened to your country once we disarm.

          I like the way you think. Join NRA today.

    • Sorry. We have very strict gun laws here. Basically impossible to get hold of any type of firearm. The regime doesn't want it's citizens to rebel against them.

      Not every country needs guns to make people feel big.
