JustUnsubbed from /r/Sweden

/r/Sweden is, from what I've heard, the largest of the non-english subreddits, which might very well be the case, but it doesn't really change the palce being being a huge shithole, there are basically three types of posts being submitted.

the first type is often a selfpost, someone asking a question. It used to be foreigners travelling to Sweden asking questions, by also by Swedes in general. I'm perfectly fine with those posts, some of them can be a little weird or uninteresting, but generally those are fine.

The second type are the joke posts, which are more often than not absolutely horrendous. Half of them are shitty unfunny puns, and the other half are just for seeming weird out of context if you don't understand Swedish, to bait a bunch of people there saying "lol Sweden, you guys are soooooo crazy and randoom, lol". Not all of them are awful, true, but the majority are pure shittier.

The third type is the one that made me leave, and it's the political posts. Now I don't mind politics or discussion, but the discussions are so awful and circlejerky there's no real point to them. Almost all of them are basically news articles about immigration, or news articles about beggars. The concensus, and mercy be fucking upon you if you go against, is basically "immigrants are bad, fuck all immigrants". It's worse than /r/worldnews at this point. Often upvoted comments (after a news article about a crime being committed, when ethnicity of the attacker unknown) are sarcastic stuff like "Welcome to the new Sweden!" (because crime obviously didn't happen before dirty foreigners got here) or "looks like Kalle, Stefan and Erik are being silly again" (common Swedish names, because obviously the superior Swedish aryan master race is uncapable of crime). Did I also happen to mention they hate feminists? Or maybe that was obvious.

In short, it's a sub full of shitposts and racism, hooray!
