Yes of course. It’s basically what the global economy has been like for fucking forever.
Yes, Colonialism and now Imperialism are brutal, but unfortunately have been long lasting.
It seems weird to single out the Nordic social democrats for this though.
The Nordic Countries, ie the scandinavian model, depends on Imperialism and makes no move against this. If a Capitalist, developed country moves towards Social Democracy, they will do nothing to change this Imperialism.
What are you trying to get at here?
Capitalism isn’t Socialism, ergo Social Democrats have little in common with Leftists.
