Up until the 90s Icelanders clung desperately to the idea that we are "purebred" genetically incorrigible Aryan people even though the original settlers were Norwegian/Irish and, if you want to go way back, Ethiopian. Then around 2009-10 the Icelandic population treated the Polish immigrants that came here during the crash with a lot of disrespect (and still do, to some extent). It's pathetic.

That's sad. Seems like racism is almost impossible to get rid off. "Sverigedemokraterna" makes me ashamed of being proud of my country.

In my opinion the least favorite thing about our culture these days is:

Teenagers (Mostly the ones with their pants down.)

I just HATE seeing most teenagers these days, like what they wear, what they do, and what they say. How is it "swag" to have your pants down to your knees? It is so disgusting to see teenagers with their pants down showing off their smelly, soiled underwear.

Plus the flat cap hats they wear is darn annoying, every time they wear it there is always a sticker on them which they claim it to be "a special sticker that makes your hat swag". How the hell is a damn plastic sticker on a flyboy cap special? I can get from from a dollar store for 10 cents!

Also, I REALLY HATE teenage slang these days including the words Swag, Dawg, and YOLO. Only a person who has their pants down while wearing a flat cap while texting would say those stupid words.

Jeese... those teenagers might only live once, but james bond only lives twice!

Last thing is texting. It is just embarrassing to be in this civilization surrounded in school with this technology. What ever happened to using phones? Or Email? Or just talking to a friend in person!

I have no idea what went wrong...

Quote: media manipulation of my age group,

Once, Fox News did an opinion thing on "What the average teenagers think of Obama."

So they went to some kind of rally where a bunch of grungy idiots were, and interviewed (What I suspect) were the dumbest people there. Those people got so many basic facts wrong... I had facepalm syndrome the entire day.

That is what Fox News thinks of the next generation of voters. Makes me sick.

From what I understand, he wants everyone to be deported. Is that correct?

Quote: YOLO.

I've been protesting that by countering with my own brand of YOLO:

"Work hard to cure cancer. YOLO"
"Land a rover on Mars. YOLO"
"Join the Military. YOLO."

^For example.

I know your feel bro(Kind of)

I can't sympathize with your Homosexuality, but I can sympathize with having to hide who you are. I'm an Atheist in a conservative family that hates new ideas and education.

It freaking sucks because I am bottling up all of my thoughts and stress. I am rude as hell as a result. One of the reasons I am joining the Military is to get out of this place.

Yeah, basically what they are saying is that everything that is bad or wrong in Sweden is to be blamed on the immigrants.
