I have many times tried to explain this combination of individualism and collectivism, but mostly failed. Your explanation is superb, and I'll try to memorize it!
Thanks!

I moved to America from Sweden two years ago and not a day has gone by without me longing to be back at Sweden!! Itâs like two extremes with Sweden being the better of the two!

Tack för att du gör mig sĂ„ stolt över oss svenskar och jag blir sĂ„ stolt över dig som pratar sĂ„ bra svenska och förstĂ„r vĂ„rt samhĂ€lle sĂ„ vĂ€l! đ„°

I will write this in English even though I know you are fluent in Swedish, but I guess you've got American followers also.
You have truly spotted things that are very Swedish, but most impressively you understand the underlying causes. Welcome as a citizen. You have earned it.

Du gör mig ju stolt över att vara svensk. Bra gjort!

I'm from indonesia and I just saw you on yt, and I started watching your vidios and I have been learning swedish since 2022 and I also learnt german in 2021 but I stopped halfway but after seeing
Your vidio and younger brother I decided to learn german again, och jag lÀrde mig svenska sjÀlv hemma utan lÀrare. Tack sÄ mycket.

Wow, your analyzes of Swedish society has really advanced and developed over the years. Not sure if I'll be able to explain my thoughts smart enough. But I think your levels of analyzes reach beyond the basic tropes about Sweden. Really feel like your next step is to analyze and grasp this country from a historical + present political context - which is something maybe a minority of people tend to do. It's complex to understand and see how Sweden is both an individual and collective country at the same time - which I believe you do. Sweden is loud and quiet, humble but also..proud?
Thank you for this vid.

As someone who is born and has lived in Sweden my entire life, i think one of the most underrated effects of our collectivism mindset is the sense of security and relaxation one can attain t hat is simply not possible in other countries where the constant competitive push is always looming at the back of your mind, never allowing you to just be fully stress free.
But of course there are pro's to the competitive nature of the American lifestyle as well.
Competitiveness promotes people to constantly improve on themselves and to always seek more to push for more or a better situation.
And as such it is more likely that this type of lifestyle can drastically change how a person are able to handle things going the wrong way.
Because they are used to it by the nature of constant competition, so their stress tolerance are usually much higher than that of the Swedish people.

Jag har givetvis tÀnkt pÄ svensk kollektivism och individualism tidigare, men du uttrycker det pÄ ett sÀtt som gjorde det roligt att tÀnka vidare pÄ denna paradox.

Det Àr ett fint portrÀtt av oss du mÄlar upp! Det gjorde mig glad! :)

Intressant att se hur dina videos har utvecklats, du har ett helt annat djup i din analys jÀmfört med hur det var i början(de var absolut inte dÄliga men nu ger dem mycket mer) Keep going!!

Excellent overview of Sweden. I was skeptical at first, I suspected it would be another American telling us all he knows about Sweden - I was wrong! You revealed a very positive attitude, I came to Sweden before you were born and I'm still learning!

Lmao, he even speaks English with a Swedish accent nowadays..

I think you explained our culture perfectly. Well done.

Really impressive summary! One reason many swedes donât mind paying taxes and have a high regard for authorities is that we can actually see the benefits for the taxes. And where the tax money goes is transparent. You can literally track down the expenses in your city and for example see what contractors where involved in the bidding process when renovations is needed. That process is by law public. I think that kind of openness from the authorities shines through the whole society, and trust is gained.

You have discovered the exact differences that I, too, learned albeit 50 years before you. The only difference is our take on Swedish weather. Being from Minnesota, I found winter on the SmÄland highland in Jönköping where I went to gymnasium very familiar. And winter in Uppsala where I went to university to be rather wimpy. Stockholm was even milder. But that is just my opinion. Bra fortsÀttning!

WOW! As a Swedish native, I have always been open about talking about everything, even the most private. We Swedes are really different, there are some things I don't recognize in your video, but that could be because you live in Stockholm and I live in northernmost Sweden where, for example, we have light 24/7 for about 3 months in the summer, the sun is up 24/7 for 2 months. In the winter we live completely without sun up here the sun does not rise above the horizon for about 2 months. But there is much that is true, for example that most Swedes are good at English. Feels good to hear that you like Sweden I wish you good luck.

Imponerade Stefan, du har verkligen gjort hela resan! Det mĂ€rks hur mycket din vistelse hĂ€r har pĂ„verkat dig och du har förstĂ„tt kulturen/tankesĂ€ttet hĂ€r och blivit lika mycket svensk som amerikan - pretty much! Glad att du Ă€r hĂ€r och trivs! â€
