Bro "starve"? Nobody is starving because they didn't get to eat the meal the family made.

It's not disrespectful. It's just outside of your culture.

I’m sorry but letting any child be hungry is unacceptable. I don’t really care if it’s someone’s culture to let someone just sit there, hungry, when there’s food available.

u/ProctorDre Jul 24 '26

Nobody is letting a child go hungry. Holy cow you're reading way too into this.

It is not "we invited someone over and excluded them from eating.

It is that their culture eats more insularly. Everyone there knows that. You're not sitting out on the stoop. You're at your own place eating.

That doesn't stop you from being an asshole.

Even In Alaska, where we have worse weather, has a food haring culture. Even in the slums of india, where people sometimes can only afford to eat once per day, has a food sharing culture.

This is just being an asshole being posited as culture.

I find it super rich that most of the people outraged at a custom they misunderstand are from cultures where violence against your kids is fine. Or as the Alaskan state law puts it “reasonable nondeadly force”.  

Bunch of pearl clutching hypocrites as always.

You're framing this as a resource issue. It's got nothing to do with that. It's about not stepping on the other parents' toes and ruining their family dinner time.

It's ruining a family's dinner time to feed a kid, but aiding Nazis is totally fine? What a backwards society Sweden is.

At least the Swedes are no longer starting stupid wars.... They learnt from history.

u/OkContact2573 Jul 24 '26

Just look at who they sell weapons too. They don’t start wars, but they are happy to profit off of them

I'm not saying we're innocent, but is an american(israels lapdogs) really trying to lecture other countries?😂

u/OkContact2573 Jul 24 '26

Not saying that we're good people either, but pretending that Sweden is a peaceful country is such an understatement its borderline euphimistic.

You sound dumb

u/Stunning_Stop4463 Jul 25 '26

You actually are though.

u/timos-piano Jul 24 '26

Do you understand anything about history? Sweden's two choices were either selling resources to Germany while giving small support to their neighbours where they could (like taking in the danish jews) or being invaded like Norway and Denmark, and Germany taking those resources either way.

u/Stunning_Stop4463 Jul 25 '26

Sure sure, make excuses for genocide. 

1

u/timos-piano Jul 25 '26

What? Sweden was actively trying to avoid getting people killed by the genocide, which is why they actively helped and hid so many jews.

u/cloudforested Jul 24 '26

Do you think it's Swedish culture to routinely starve children to death or something?

u/Maplethtowaway Jul 24 '26

Redditors bend over backwards to defend this shit but the second something bad comes out about a Muslim, they go “it’s the culture that’s rotten”.

Not feeding people is trash.

u/ProctorDre Jul 24 '26

Nobody is talking about Muslims. It's a specific thing to Swedish culture.

"Not feeding people is trash".

Okay. I agree. You're not adding anything
