Most Europeans have suffered through some shit at some point or another, we and our families all have horror stories. That being said, the consequences of many of these things pertain to food shortages, starvation, cannibalism etc; so if there is one thing most Europeans do actually have in common (besides all having a bit of hate for one another), is an underlying hatred for fat fucks who waste resources and then call themselves oppressed like it means something.

Sweden checking in. I think there's something to this for sure. Might be lingering effects of the World Wars. We got through it VERY lightly compared to most but still had rationing and so on. Even two generations later, consuming more than your share is a bit taboo. Probably a theme throughout our war torn history.
