  • The Sapmi are really taking up the fight here, you guys, not just for them, but for Norwegians as well.

    For some context, the windmills in Norway are EXTREMELY disliked. Partly because trusting cost cutting European companies was a mistake (they are proned to error have a tendency to fall apart) and partly because they make the Norwegian landscape look ugly AF.

    Fun fact about Norwegians, is that we are suppusedly “national romantics”, in that norwegians supposedly worship the forests , the mountains, the fjords… until the deforestation, wanting to dump coals in the fjords, the fucking cruise liner tourism my fucking GOD the cruise liner tourism…

    Suffice to say, our neo-liberal parties are a bunch of toadies. I and many other Norwegians thank the Sapmi for checking the powers that be. But we still gotta protest, we still gotta make sure collective power isn’t trumped by elitism.

    Also, the government “gave back” a ton of land to a Baron family, which was acquired by the Norwegian government because all nature belongs to Norwegians. Its now being defrosted as we speak. See how neo-liberalism is also fucking up Norway?




  • The royalties of northern Europe is just like your other celebrity families, like the Smith’s, the Kardasian’s, the Kennedy’s, the Bush’s, etc, in that the money is really in the tabloid material generated thereof. Keep eyeballs on screen and generate ad revenue, so you can get paid for the meet and greets, speaking engagements, productization, etc. That’s why I call the monarchies government mandated celebrities.

    No lie though, as a mountain monkey, I love the Norwegian king and queen. I’m at bit ambivalent wether or not it should continue after.

    But hey, as long as the king delivers heartwarming morale and the queen is putting money into cultural preservation, both being more progressive than most US politician, while having none of the political power, then it’s grawl gravy.

    10/10. Would go for modern monarchy again.

    Nationalism can suck my balls though.





  • I think classifying “hurt children, family dead” as a military metric should be the canary in the coalmine.

    But again, we don’t establish intent by catching Netenyahu saying “We’re literally going to genocide the Palestinian people”.

    You’ll have to establish intent, or motive, by collecting the many, many hundreds of statements, quotes and accounts regarding the Israeli state, Israeli organisations, Zionist organisation ACROSS THE DECADES, to the Zionist vacation plans, the gathering of settlers and international fund raising, the paper trail of property seized by the Israeli state in one form or another, the messaging, the subtext, and oh my god I’m glad I’m not a lawyer.
