I'member. I am not a Trump supporter but he was spot on in that instance. Europe also listened even while squalling like a smashed kitty...they upped their payments. Not by much, not enough to make a difference, but they did it for the first time in recent memory. Trump was a lot of things but he was 100% correct on this issue....

That's a shame. In 10 years or so they will be off this list.


The only way they fall of the list is if you and I and our diverse brothers and sisters in the US stop paying for their national defense and they have to take some of their own money and hold Russia at bay. Diversity has NOTHING to do with it, it is all about how and what they spend tax revenue on. In Europe that can spend it on healthcare and housing and roads and what not while in the US we spend it on making sure Europe has healthcare and housing and roads and what not and then we blame our diversity because we are dumber than a sack of hammers and allow our base nature to over ride our sense of logic and makes us refuse to see what is right in our face and make up shite about diversity killing us.

It’s amazing how quickly they don’t know how to deal with immigration though. Look up the issues they have been having with it. They basically admitted it failed and they changed who is allowed to immigrate now. lol

System works great when everyone agrees with each other and looks the same, oh and they don’t have to pay for a world police force.

Most of Europe is 80% white and 70% country of origin.

You know damn well what everyone meant by diverse.
Dont come in here with your "they are the most diverse country" bullshite. 2/3rds of their population are pure breed Swedes. The vast majority of those that come from other countries are coming from Finland, Norway, Denmark and other eastern European countries.
Again, you know damn well what everyone meant by diverse, but sure Sweden has diversity by the definition.

When they got that diversity, they had zero clue how to deal with it and changed policies based on what happened to their great society.

Wikipedia

quote:

The demographic profile of Sweden has altered considerably due to immigration patterns since the 1970s. As of 2020, Statistics Sweden reported that around 2,686,040 or 25.9% of the inhabitants of Sweden were from a foreign background: that is, each such person either had been born abroad or had been born in Sweden to two parents who themselves had both been born abroad.[40] Also taking into account people with only one parent born abroad, this number increases to one third (33.5%).[41]


Huge uptick in crime, everything from gang violence to rape.

quote:

When only analysing rape assault (Swedish: överfallsvåldtäkt) cases, that is cases where perpetrator and victim were not previously acquainted, 97 out of 129 (75%) were born outside Europe, with 40 percent of these having been in Sweden for a year or less.[31]

@PeterSweden7
There has now been 7 people killed in shootings in Sweden in just 1 week.

20 years ago we had the lowest number of shootings in Europe. Now we have the highest number.

What went wrong?

SWEDEN OUT OF CONTROL

A top police chief in Sweden is now saying that the situation is so dangerous that it hasn't been this bad since 1945.

Just last week a 13 year old boy was shot to death in Stockholm.

There's been over 110 bombings so far this year.

What went wrong?

Of course there is no such thing as a "pure breed Swede" but you might find comfort in the fact that 30% of the current Swedish population's mothers came from some nation other than Sweden. That number is 3% in the United States.

We all know what y'all mean by "diversity" is the problem. It is folks who ain't white. Everyone understands that folks that ain't white are a problem to knuckle dragging mouth breathing idiots without the intellectual capacity to think. It is especially true when it is demonstrably a fact that Sweden's and the United States ethnic diversity is nearly identical yet Swedes enjoy arguably a better standard of living. I know, non white people in the US are the problem...I get it...you do not like the idea of non white folks dragging down YOUR country, never mind it is just as much theirs as yours. What you bigotry and ignorance and out right hate is blinding you to is the actual reason Europeans live, again arguably, better than Americans...it is because a sizeable amount of the disposable income enjoyed in Europe comes to Europe from the wallets of Americans, white and not. But you keep doing you boo...Americans have been divided over race since the beginning even with ample evidence that it is not much of a factor in anything, and we have done this to our detriment because some among have to feel like they are more special than others.

91% white

97.5% of the country is either Christian or non-religious

Having a bunch of Finnish folks in Sweden doesn’t make it ethnically diverse.

Horse shite. Country of origin is especially horse shite because there are basically no borders in Europe any longer.


But I will play along with all of you ignorant hateful frickers convinced that diversity is crippling the US but a lack of diversity is making Europe strong. If that is true, why in the frick doesn't Europe foot the bill for its own protection??? Why is it that ALL of the white folks in Europe, 80% right, are sucking on the diverse teat of American taxpayers to keep their nations free from being over run by Russia or China??? If what y'all are claiming is true then the damned white European is the worst kind of parasite...they are all welfare queens of the rankest order. Sorry assed white folks, not paying their own bills and expecting brown and black folks from the US to at least pay part of their bills.

Uhh, for the same reason the mega rich don't pay taxes, because they can get away with it?

Why the frick would Europe not take advantage of the US footing their defense bill until we force them to do otherwise?

WHile you numbers and your reading comprehension reflects the ailment which would lead you to conclude that diversity is a detriment and not a strength answer this. WHy are ALL of those sorry wass white folks in Sweden relying on US taxpayers to pay for their nations defense???? That is the worst kind of parasite. They may be 100% white but they are depending on an awful lot of black and brown Americans to keep their borders safe for them...That ain't admirable, that is disgusting and indicative of why diversity is a strength...the US is capable of paying for those sorry assed white folks security when they refuse to do it themselves.

Either way it ain't a good look for us white folks....

Europe and everyone else should shoulder the load for defense, and it has nothing to do with their diversity or lack thereof.

The system in Sweden has NEVER worked with brown and black Americans, along with white Americans, footing the bill for the majority of Swedens (and the rest of the world's defense). Yes, if by working well you mean their getting their welfare checks from the US yes, they are doing well. If doing well means being self sufficient and a net producer and not a parasite then no, they ain't doing well at all...the much more diverse united states is cleaning their fricking clock, along with the rest of Europe and the world.
