you unironically did the "socialism is when the nordic model" meme, lmaooo
sorry, i tried taking you seriously, but this is just too much
no it wasnt. you should learn what words mean before talking about them.
No, it was just a welfare state back then too, they just had more concessions at the time because there was the Soviet Unions just next door with guarantied employment, free healthcare and housing, etc, and were getting so riled up over it that the bourgeoisie was getting really scared of potentially having a revolution and decided that temporarily giving these concessions was better than loosing everything.
This was true of, what? Denmark? But not the Nordic countries writ large.
Sorry but Scandinavian countries were still capitalist and still had a bourgeois class even before the neoliberals came around.
