Swede here, where is all the good genuine South American cuisine? If we're Venezuela we should at least get that.
- There are a few nice restaurants in Stockholm if you know where to look
  
  I'm going to be in Stockholm in a few weeks, any suggestions for restaurants in general?
  Edit: Are you a cook?
- Making arepas yourself is pretty easy, it's just hard to find (good quality) ingredients.
Holy propaganda, Batman!
- Don't eat the onion.
  
  It's a right-wing onion site, mocking socialism... It's propaganda.
RIP sweden you would have loved brat summer 🕊️🙏
What's happening there?
- Nothing. It's a meme from 1999 prior to the American presidential election in 2020.
  Bernie Sanders used the Scandinavian countries as reference for his progressive social-democratic politics. Fox News attacked it by comparing it to Venezuela. The Clickhole website by the Onion ran the pictured satirical article to highlight the absurdity of the Fox News claims.
  
  Thanks for explaining!
