Looks like Israel is the 8th happiest country.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago

they just want to spread happiness to the palestinians, it's easy to misunderstand.

[–] drolex@sopuli.xyz 6 points 15 hours ago

France not in the top 25????

I am NOT HAPPY about this!!!

Aaaah OK.

[–] Tabooki@lemmy.world 4 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Canada as well. We used to be number 1 for a while.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 hour ago

We have a shit neighbor. So I'm not surprised. What surprised me is that Mexico is above both the USA and Canada. Really?

Seems strange.

That's quite the error bar on Belize

Those scores are not objective. Don't read it as "people are this happy" but as "people report in a survey they are this happy". People will report high scores because they think they should ("My country always scores high on this, I don't want to spoil it" ), because the previous scores change people perception ("Fins are famous for being happy, I can't put less then 7, right?") or because they want to defend their country ("Enemies want to see Israel suffer but I will show them we're still happy here despite all of it: 10"). People will also put low scores to protests ("Nothing change in my life in the last year but I will put 1 to show that Trump sucks").

completely free health care. 90% government subsidy for colleges. Comparable social security. And no pressure to pretend you're anything but a murderous racist supremecist.

If they are so happy and well developed, why are they are number one recipient-- by a lot-- for foreign aid money?

[–] Akasazh@lemmy.world 10 points 22 hours ago

Meant people there truly love genocide (or dot it seems)

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago (2 children)

They provide universal healthcare, free college education, free childcare and strong social services

[–] rirus@feddit.org 1 points 2 hours ago

They also force people to participate in warcimes.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 30 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wow it's amazing what they can afford when we buy them their bombs

[–] Zwiebel@feddit.org 8 points 23 hours ago

They could also afford it if they didn't wage any wars

[–] Suspiciousbrowsing@kbin.melroy.org 51 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Looks like Israel is having a blast.

[–] Onyxonblack@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 day ago

Evil fucking monsters tend to enjoy being evil.

When your government and a bunch of the regular people base their happiness literally on making other people unhappy because they’re unhappy…that’s what you get. It’s also like a drug, the antagonists’ happiness with their successes is short-lived, so they need to inflict more and more terrible things on others for that feel-good sadistic kick that doesn’t actually solve any of the problems that pushed us down this path.

is this the right community?

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Right? I'm new to this community, but it seems off. How is this a meme and not just a fact or news being shared?

[–] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 4 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

There have been several posts that made me side-eye and question the mods as they won't be memes at all and will literally just be a tweet about facts or smth, so this is just a water-cooler for anything posted to social media I guess. I just ignore it now.

[–] Ofiuco@piefed.ca 3 points 16 hours ago

Pretty much this, for some reason meme communities seem allergic to quality control or at least to keep the meme community for memes and point the rest to microblogmemes

Historical lows so far…

[–] urata@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Costa Rica is the happiest place in the Americas. I wouldn't have guessed that. Guess they're doing something right. Quick look at Wikipedia showed high education spending and no standing army.

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Also, like, have you seen that place? It's fucking gorgeous.

[–] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well we are literally in the middle of a hostile government takeover…

[–] CobblerScholar@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Wanna talk about it but il be late for work.....

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 14 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Damn Mexico! Pushing all their unhappy people across the US border, bringing their average up and the US average down!

[–] Ofiuco@piefed.ca 2 points 16 hours ago
[–] SabinStargem@lemmy.today 7 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

I legit think that American citizens would flee to Canada and Mexico to escape inflation and ICE. They really would be happier in someplace that wasn't a shithole.

[–] ScoffingLizard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 16 hours ago

Nobody wants us though.

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 3 points 17 hours ago

I absolutely think that is happening. I’m trying to make a move out of the country happen before it’s not allowed anymore.

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

doing my part to bring that average down

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Great job, soldier. Your Dementor aura is killing it!

[–] creamlike504@jlai.lu 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Thanks ~~Obama~~ ~~Biden~~ all those people who won't stop asking for the Epstein files.

[–] henfredemars 5 points 1 day ago

Gosh how many kids did Trump touch to keep the bit up this long?

I'm sure his supports would condone a few rapes.

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

inb4 Trump looks to fire the team behind this data

[–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 1 points 20 hours ago

Bhutan is not on the list, so the list is invalid.

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 6 points 1 day ago

It's barely worse than Germany, which doesn't currently have a fascist takeover (it's getting there, but it's not quite there yet).

[–] cRazi_man@europe.pub 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Can confirm.....fucking UK

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago
[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

Well, when you deport all the people doing the shitty jobs you don't want to do so you would need to do them yourself, I can understand you're unhappy.

And it's only because of a handful of rich assholes who need to expire ASAP.

[–] curiousPJ@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

With almost no inheritance tax.... No. We have to deal with their spawns.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

I don't think any of the people I'm thinking of who are making political decisions could be directly replaced by their spawn.

Of course Finland is number one. Home of Moominvalley.
