"Okay so I think what most people think about when they talk about Sweden and Denmark is the US".
This is so satisfying to read lol. The USA-centrism is so annoying, especially prior their elections.
That is sort of like complaining that people think of the US when they hear "school shooting": The US has something like 20% of the world's prison population and we likely use complete solidarity confinement more than any every other (developed) country combined together... So the term is rightfully US centric because, like school shootings, solidary confinement is far more of an issue in America.
No it's not, because in this case it was quite clearly solitary confinement in Sweden and Denmark. If you read that and thought "oh they mean US solitary confinement" then you are retarded.
