The entire population of Sweden getting collectively called out on twitter is funny as hell so far because every single tweet by a Swedish person is either like “first of all being racist is my cultural heritage…” or it’s “god, finally, I’ve been trying to tell everyone for years that my country is full of assholes”

[bogleech]

Oh I guess this didn’t spill over enough to tumblr so this is what happened:

There was a twitter thread asking people about their weirdest encounters with someone else’s cultural practices.

Someone said that when they were just a child, they visited with a Swedish family who made them stay in another room while they ate meals and didn’t offer them any food or snacks.

This picked up lots of responses like “wait, what? That happened to me too but I just thought this one family were freaks???”

I don’t need to tell most people why most reactions to this were positively aghast that anyone anywhere expects guests to either bring their own food or just suffer.

The thread truly exploded only when some Swedes not only admitted to it but got defensive about it, calling it selfish and childish to expect food as a guest. Yes even from personal friends and yes even as children, because you should apparently actually be grateful enough that you’re even allowed in someone else’s home at all.

Other Swedish citizens chimed in to say they feel like they’re in the minority for having any concept of sharing or giving in general and that their other Swedish friends keep track of every cent they owe them for every little thing.

Immigrant and racial minority Swedes began to add that the whole “be grateful you’re even allowed here” attitude is how they’re treated everywhere they go just for existing.

From there, a whole lot of discussion, again mostly from people living there, about how Sweden has a cutesy, harmless image to most of the world only because its leadership and media work so hard to downplay its true prevalence of active white supremacy and hardcore nationalism.

“#swedengate” starts trending.

Sweden is being cancelled like it’s a celebrity and every Swede who gets upset about it just immediately demonstrates exactly what was being criticized in the first place:

Actually this part in itself is not funny at all. It’s just funny how many of them had to lock or delete their accounts like they genuinely thought these were normal things to say.

Literally have not been able to stop thinking about this scene all day- there was absolutely no reason for him to do this

[l-herz]

Moon Knight being directed and produced by Mohamad Diab, an Egyptian-Arab, SHOWS and it is so important:

-The music is amazing. Having Arabic music in a Marvel show and in the main stream was such a pleasent surprise. None of the orientalist sterotypical crap either. There's many songs and different genres used, fitting the scenes they are put in perfectly. They literally put Arabic music OVER THE MARVEL INTRO! They used real songs from real egyptian and Arab artists and the score is made by an Egyptian composer, Hesham Nazih

Episode 2 credits

Song: El Melouk (meaning the Kings) - Ahmed Saad

-No ugly yellow filter that is shown in most western movies and shows when in the middle east or countries such as mexico to show them as "hot, dusty and foreign". Instead when in Egypt the natural looking lighting is kept and the country is shown with It's beauty, and not just in the dessert:

-The language! In most western movies and shows they have very clearly foreign people "speaking arabic" and im supposed to believe their characters know the language when in reality it is not understandable and it is done horribly. Dont get me started on Eternals where there is a whole speech in "arabic" with not a single word correctly said. At least ad lib it. (to clarify im not talking about the Lebanese actor. He was fluent. Im talking about every other lead)

But in Moon Knight most of the arabic is said by people who can actually speak arabic or well enough by non arabic speakers. The Arabic language and dialects are correct. They also included some Coptic. Oscar Isaac has one line in Arabic and he said it perfectly, sounded like a native. Ethan Hawke had a few that were very accented but still understandable and better than 95% of non arabs pretending to know the language.

-The character of Layla El-Faouly is essential. We needed an Egyptian (secondary) protagonist in this story that is set often in Egypt and based heavily in Egyptian mythology. She is the FIRST Arab female character in the MCU (long overdue tbh) . And the actress herself, May Calamawy, is Palestinian-Egyptian:

The show is doing amazing in authentic representation and avoiding orientalism and sterotypes

It’s McDonald’s, it’s not supposed to be a high paying job

[jabberwockypie]

People deserve to make enough to live on. That’s not up for debate. This idea that some jobs aren’t “supposed to” pay enough for people to get their needs met is bullshit. Nobody should be living in poverty.

[the-space-ferret]

Yes, but it’s McDonald’s. It’s not meant to be a job to support a family, it’s mainly for support for teens or side jobs.

[aeliad]

No, it’s not. 

There is no such thing as a job “for teens” (and even if there was, they deserve a fair wage for their labor, too.) Nobody should get paid so little that they need “side jobs.” 

If your business model relies on paying people a wage that keeps them trapped in poverty, your business should not continue to exist. McDonald’s can afford to pay their workers a better wage, they’re choosing not to. 

[acestuckwithahimbo]

Funny story- I am a manager at a Mc Donald’s. Do you know? We have a set limit of minors- teenagers- we can employ. It’s barely over a dozen. Most locations open at 6am… guess what, on week days minors cannot work before they are out of school, or before 730am if they are out of school (GED and the like) also 730am on weekends. Minors cannot work after 10pm on weekdays, and after Midnight on weekends. My location closes at 11pm Sunday to Thursday, and 1am on Friday and Saturday. Because of labor laws here, they may not have more than 20 hours a week, and cannot work more than 5 hours in a single day.

So no. This is absolutely not a job just for teens. We have a giant compactor that crushes and crushes our trash. If you’re not 18 you’re not allowed to operate it. Anything sharp? Are you 18? Can’t touch it. Being a manger? Are you out of high school and at least 18? Forget it.

And honestly, I wouldn’t make any of the kids at my job deal with our customers when they’re going feral. Do you know how bat shit y’all are?? I had a woman start crying because we ran out of the Mc Rib and caused a scene in my drive-thru for 10 minutes. I’ve had old men cussing me out because Corp decided to bump a senior coffee from .99 to 1.09. Though if you sit inside, which they all do for well over two hours every morning… refills are free.

We have a lady here who we call “Princess Diamond” because she’s so fucking entitled she gave us a bad review on the McVoice because we served a homeless man and he sat to close to her… which was across the entire goddamn lobby. Would you really want a teen trying to deal with this woman??

I sure as shit don’t. I don’t allow her to deal with most of my Crew, actually. I’m as nice as freaking sugar in your tea to her face but if she gets rude I start slamming her order down on the tray. And as my Crew knows, the sweeter my voice gets the more trouble your in. She doesn’t stay long on days were I start getting aggressive with her food.

Side tracked- but no. We have so many things that need to be done all day long that we can’t legally let a minor do. A sister location was just fined over $5,000.00 because of labor violations pertaining to minors.

Just pay us so we can live. Please. A lot of these teens are trying to move out and get into apartments. But if an apartment costs 800.00 in rent and that’s usually one of the two checks a month an adult gets. Maybe. That’s a struggle even for myself, and it’s just my roommate, our dumb cat, and me. No children. He has a worse paying job.

We just want to be able to live.

[aeliad]

This goes for any minimum wage job. 

The minimum wage, when it was set in 1938 as the United States was coming out of the Depression, was intended to be the minimum you needed to be able to pay your bills and raise a family on a single income. Not this bullshit we have today. It’s as low as it is because it hasn’t kept up with inflation.

Like, not only is working in fast food one of the hardest fucking jobs because it’s hot, it’s dangerous, and it’s full of the worst customers, but it’s also disrespected constantly, and people don’t think you deserve to be able to pay your bills. 

Fuck that. 

Pay workers enough to live on with a single full time job. 

Any business that can’t? Shouldn’t exist. 

[siphersaysstuff]

If you don’t support raising minimum wage to a living wage, MAKE YOUR OWN FUCKING MCMUFFIN AT 6AM YOU CANCEROUS CHUDLUMP
