Bjorn is a Stalinist?

I think Bjorn is still shaking it off from another thread.

Far be from me to disappoint your expectations, so I clicked the 60% tax rate one. And working class people on average pay 33.8% of their income in taxes, and I love true liberty and sensible capitalism. And monarchy, state religion and not having a minimum wage. There's a word for things that aren't Danish: Inferior.

I guess you can squeeze blood from a turnip. Denmark's govt steals over a third from its poor. Maybe Medieval Kings were as greedy as the Stalinist welfare state. Maybe, but maybe not. I'm leaning toward the latter.

And that govt also provides them a roof over their heads if they can't get a job (if the unions won't, they pick up most of the unemployment benefits slack). That govt also makes sure they don't get indebted for life or overcharged for a medical procedure, and that govt. makes sure that parents don't have to save up money for their kids college. Only merits, not the size of your wallet gets into university. And those poor, like the middle class and the wealthy pay their taxes gladly. It's something we give to each other as a society. Government just manages it.

And the poor have more money left after paying 33% of their income in taxes than US poor. They aren't crippled by medical bills, or struggling to put their kids through education.

And it's turned a formerly proud people of adventurous, capable, raiding vikings into a bunch of internet pussies.
Let's not forget the endgame.

Denmark is the most debt laden per capita country on Earth. Far be it from me to shatter your expectations, but sensible capitalism sounds like a Stalinist term for, well, Stalinism and state enforced conformity.

I've never been to Denmark (partly because I don't speak Arabic) but it sounds like a frozen gulag shithole.

It would add insult to injury if on top of this Marxist state they had some kind of stupid monarchy. That would be like rubbing salt in the wound. Why would a state that already wastes so much money of stupid bullshit like commie college need a king? Retarded if you ask me

I love a good international donnybrook.

Denmark wasn't at it's greatest when we were vikings. Greatest territorial extent and political power of Denmark was during the Kalmar Union. As for internet pussies, I'm not a beta male fawning over people richer and supposedly more succesful than me. That's what egalitarianism is actually about: The opposition to elitism. You guys, otoh, "know your place". And take great pride in it.

[heydaralon]

Yeah because Jeff Bezos and every other American billionaire and inventor you can name were all nobility. They certainly knew their place when starting from their garage.


Europe on the other hand is a giant toilet where rich wig wearing faggots still play dress up and are revered by their citizens as nobility. You are more cowed than TG Lee. You have a monarchy? How can you possibly act like you have some high ground over America? That wouldn't fly for a minute in the states, partly because we don't have state-sponsored homosexuality the way Hygge-land does.
