Nordic countries are not socialist just because they offer more of the spoils of plunder. In fact, the share of that is rabidly shrinking as they pivot to fascism faster and faster.

the welfare of these countries are literally crumbling dude
More restrictions, less pay, more cutoffs of access like dentists becoming more expensive as a result. Yeah, sure works great.
That's what happens with "socialism" within the system of capitalism.
Except they don't work; they rely on exploiting the global South. And even then, they're having all of those social policies rapidly repealed because they only existed to appease the population during the cold war.
Exactly haha, they want to keep everyone arguing about socialism and capitalism like they are conflicting religions. The simple answer is to socialize and capitalize as appropriate. In the USA USPS is a social system. Capitalist companies like Fedex or UPS fill in the gaps. You can do the same thing for healthcare, like in Brazil.
As long as they can keep people believing in the magic line in the sand we will continue in this reality. OPs meme is just another tool to maintain the program.
