Welcome to YUROP
The Ultimate Eurozone of Culture, Chaos, and Continental Excellence

A glorious gathering place to celebrate (and lovingly roast) the lands, peoples, quirks, and contradictions of Her Most Magnificent Europa. From the fjords to the Med, the steppes to the Atlantic spray, this is a shrine to everything that makes Europe gloriously weird, wonderfully diverse, and occasionally passive-aggressive in 24 languages.

Here we toast:
πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί The progressive Union of Peace (and paperwork)
πŸ§€ The freest of health care
🍷 The finest of foods
πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ The liberalest of liberties
🌍 The proud non-members and honorary cousins πŸ’Ά And the eternal dance of unity, confusion, and cultural banter.

Post memes, news, satire, linguistic wars, train maps, cursed food photos, Eurovision fever, propaganda and whatever makes you scream β€œonly in YUROP.”

Leave your stereotypes at the border control and enjoy the ride.

  1. When did any of that happen in Sweden?
  2. Oh no! Not actual equality! The horror!
[–] bearboiblake@pawb.social 5 points 5 days ago (2 children)

It happens when Swedish soldiers go to foreign countries - Bosnia, Kosovo, or Afghanistan, for example.

I'm gay asf, my point is, FUCK WAR. Wars are for the elite pedophile club to send us working class people to die in for them to make more $$$.

Yes, fuck war in general. But also, fuck rolling over when fascists show up on your border.

the fascists are coming from inside the house. your comment is on a pro-militarist propaganda post.

[–] jenesaisquoi@feddit.org 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You're right, but the sentiment stands: there cannot be any tolerance against intolerance, because that would be the end of all tolerance

[–] bearboiblake@pawb.social 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

yes, sure, but you don't need to support militarism to oppose fascism. militarism and fascism are tightly linked. an increase of military spending, more wars and conflicts, all of that stuff benefits fascism

[–] jenesaisquoi@feddit.org 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I oppose militarism. I support shooting fascists.

Bosnia, Kosovo, or Afghanistan

Two of these three were UN sanctioned security missions designed to protect the local population from some murderous bastard. Kosovo still sings praises to "The Nordic Battalion", so I have no idea why you listed these in this context.

Afghanistan - fits a bit more, but they sent a relatively small contingent and did a bunch of humanitarian aid.

my point is, FUCK WAR

Agreed. But sometimes it's just inevitable.
