easy to answer, sweden isn't one of the most dangerous countries in Europe. it's gotten more dangerous objectively, but is far from one of the most dangerous.

Also, who gets charged with crimes. White people use drugs more than Black people in America, but who goes to jail for it?


I mean I've been charged with possession of marijuana. I'm pretty white. Italian decent. So both at the end of the day.

However, drug trafficking is considered to be a worse crime than drug possession and drug use.

Who knows what this means? Capitalism arose long, long before WW1, and so did the development of the core/periphery dynamic.


So they are that way because of war.
But we had the biggest most destructive war ever...twice.
Care to try again?

bringing in poor people causes more crime, its not a mystery. but being anti-poor isn't inherently racist. you make a jump from anti-poor to anti-(insert race here).

I think you need to reread what I wrote. I'm saying that war in Europe drove the development of capitalism in Europe. Why would WW1 and WW2 being started by Europeans do anything but bolster my argument?

Fair enough, but why does war elsewhere not do the same thing?

if u plant seeds in sand and plant seeds in dirt one will produce a better harvest. seedlings transplanted from sand to dirt still will not produce as well as those first seeded to fertile ground, yet better than those kept in sand.

Give us a pile of rocks and we will make a city.
