Favorite Country M-Z (round 3)

[Mr. Smith]

USA to spite the internet's (and social-liberal political culture's, in general) Sweden fixation.

Yes, we love the country that has the most extensive, universalistic and egalitarian welfare system because we are "social-liberals".

And this is why I vote Sweden

Partially to counterspite "muh Sweden fixation" USA voters, partially because US vs Canada would be boring . But mostly because it has the Nordic System and didn't vote for Dubya, Reagan, or Nixon, and it gave us the Wallander series.

[Mr. Smith]

Partially to counterspite "muh Sweden fixation so I'll vote USA"

Seriously, that makes absolutely no sense. What's wrong with actually liking a country because it represents the practical enactment of many policies we find desirable and is, in all conceivable rankings, among the top 5 most successful countries in the world? As opposed to voting for USA because "GO USA YAY PATRIOTISM!!!11!1!1!1!1!!!"?

I s'pose I forgot a few words...figured the pieces could be put together (fixed that). Anyway, I'm tired of those voting USA just because "oooh social liberals will vote Sweden".

And I did have the word partially for a reason (another part being that an all NA battle would be boring) I also do genuinely like the country myself for what it is.
