It’s fascinating to me how the same people who like to do purity tests for China or Vietnam claiming they’re not actually communist are also the ones who’ll defend places like US or Canada saying yeah it’s not perfect, but it’s the ideal of the system that matters.
It’s such an incredible example of cognitive dissonance. These people able to recognize that their own system doesn’t live up to the ideal they have in their heads, but still treat it as a valid interpretation of the idea, but when it comes to a system they dislike then the same logic doesn’t apply all of a sudden.
Nordic countries also have the highest anti-depressant use, so it’s questionable how good the society is at making them happy.
I mean, probably because they don’t have to pay for them

They also have very little sunlight in the winter months so seasonal depression is just going to be a thing there no matter what.
