When growing up, I was told by my family, teachers, pretty much everyone, that I live in the best country in the world.

It made me wonder the other day: Do all countries in the world have this mentality?
>>
>>66144924
we were told the same thing, and look how that turned out.

you have to be a special kind of retard to believe a frozen hellhole filled with autists is the "best country in the world"

atleast americans have something to show for it

What I mean is, do all countries look at themselves as the best?

no not really

its bleedingly obvious from tv that americans have better lives than us, so they don't bother peddling this shit on us at school

You have the prettiest flag. Dunno if that counts.
I was always told sweden was the best country because of low crimes, low unemployment rates, high quality roads etc. But that was late 1990s / early 2000s before they ruined themselves.
For me personally switserland is best, their independence WHILE proving they can build a good stable society is something i want in my cunt

Nop, pretty much the opposite.

Nordic countries are objectively the best countries to live in though, I don't get why some mememasters try to deny this.
>>
>>66145830
It's not just that specifically, it's that the whole thing is centered around people having it worse than us.

Like "In the US they have to pay for their education, consider how good you have it!" or "in the US they have to pay for healthcare, be grateful for the school nurse". It permeates everything and is possibly the reason our pro-immigration media/government got as far as they did before people started calling them out on their shit. We're taught that we should feel sorry for everyone.
>>
>>66145864
Nordic countries are only good if you are well educated.

If you aren't, you will do the same kind of shit jobs that people do in Chendong, China, and won't make a lot of money.

Yes, probably everyone loves their own country and the people they know the most. And if you love your family and friends and the land you're living on, you'll find it the best country on Earth. For example Hungary is tiny and fairly poor compared to the West, but even we call our home the posy on God's hat, Fairy Garden and things like that.

Why would a school need a nurse? You can just go to a normal doctor in town.
>>
>>66145913
But unlike the people chedong things like healthcare, social security, public transport, entertainment and subsidizing your rent will be paid for by the government.

Not to mention the minimum wages in the nordics are easily big enough to provide you with some manner of luxury. Not to mention a work safety laws that don't even exist in china.

And then there are the public benefits like clean air and water, minimal corruption, public safety and societal order that are a given in nordic countries.

Actually you'd have to be a complete retard to claim the situations of regular working people are in anyway similar to people in china. Good job dumb fuck.

I know a mechanic who bought his house when he was 21.. that said, he worked his ass off doing overtime on an oil rig and got all the off shore bonuses, so it's not representative for the working class

Die to my job, I have been in Norway many times. I think Norway is a good country for poor people but bad as soon as you're not poor anymore because being poor in Norway is like being in the middle class in every other country but it's very hard living a bit of luxury in Norway since everything is so fucking expensive. On the other hand, being poor in Germany is shit while being in the middle class to upper class is breddy good.. But being super rich here is shit, then it's time to move to Switzerland
