If you're comparing the badness of two words, and you won’t even say one of them? That's the worse word.

[-] PKMKII@hexbear.net 85 points 10 months ago

Banning picking on Swedes is insensitive to the proud cultural traditions of Norwegians.

Thank you for teaching me new slurs to use on cracker

[-] Judge_Jury@hexbear.net 64 points 10 months ago

Remember when immigrants were in control of Sweden and held all the ethnic Swedes in perpetual, heritable, racialized chattel slavery? Weird times

Yes, it's very easy to find dunkable material on reddit-logo /r/europe. This comment, however, really has everything. chefs-kiss For crying out loud, the white supremacist is even pretending he is a progressive "citizen of Earth"!

Fredo solidarity Frodo

Italians ............ Hobbits

[-] Tommasi@hexbear.net 46 points 10 months ago

Had this been posted anywhere else I would have been convinced it was a bit, but seeing it's from r/europe it's probably genuine.

Rember when the Frozen movie had a character named the n-word.

It's like the people who think "Karen" is a slur lol

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 21 points 10 months ago

Time to break put the most consistent point maybe ever.

If you're comparing two words, and you can't say one of the words because of the known immediate societal backlash you'll face, that's the worse word.

[-] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 35 points 10 months ago

I don't speak or read swedish but my big brain tells me that this "slur" is just the equivalent of just calling someone a "Swede", right?

[-] Flyberius@hexbear.net 19 points 10 months ago

It's like calling an English person Tommy, as far as I am concerned.

[-] IvarK@lemmygrad.ml 18 points 10 months ago

Yeah more or less. It's used like cracker but for white swedes and it's really funny (disclaimer I'm a svenne)

[-] Amaltheamannen@lemmy.ml 14 points 10 months ago

Except its not even intended to be offensive. It's been used before the massive immigration.

No it's based on the name Sven

[-] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 15 points 10 months ago

That doesn't seem like an insult to me

[-] fox@hexbear.net 13 points 10 months ago

It's the same as calling a German Hans or an American Johnny.

Don't ask a swede what chocolate balls are called.

Dead dove moment. For a matter of fact, please do not ask a Polish person how they call chocolate ginger cake. :^)

I don't know anybody here that does. Though we have our own equivilant 'blatte' that is used against immigrants.

It used to be common to call chocolate balls n-word balls but nowadays it's only done by racists and really old people.

And to clarify, only said it for educational purposes. Don't use it.

[-] usernamesaredifficul@hexbear.net 35 points 10 months ago

Sweden man. I wish Turkey had succeeded in keeping them out of NATO

Scandinavians and intense racism that goes undiscussed because they have healthcare name a more iconic duo

Guys stop saying the S-word

Mods they're calling the meatballs the S-word, do something

[-] RedQuestionAsker2@hexbear.net 11 points 10 months ago

I think we should ironically add it to the slur filter. Great bit

How are you going to equate two words when you won’t even spell out one of them.

[-] Utter_Karate@hexbear.net 23 points 10 months ago

As a Swede, I wish there were words to convey how ridiculously tame the word "svenne" is. It is difficult to describe, but if you start by considering the word "cracker" to be the most extreme form of hate speech there is, I want you to know that you would still likely be comfortable calling your in-laws this the first time you met them. I guess the closest thing in English I can think of is describing someone as a "guy" of some knd. And I'm not even sure that conveys how absurdly inoffensive the term is.

[-] GarfieldYaoi@hexbear.net 16 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

So much for the free speech right.

And if you want to stop antisemitism so badly, look at your country full of neo-nazis caused because you lot never denazified after ww2. You can stop kidding yourselves, you know they're no better than hamas.

[-] mayo_cider@hexbear.net 16 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Swedes have always sucked at slurs (finnjävel, come on), the immigrants seem to be integrating quite nicely

[-] SwitchyWitchyandBitchy@hexbear.net 14 points 10 months ago

Waiting for the AfD to propose considering Alman a slur.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
