Very, very slightly upgrading my opinion of Norwegians

Cheers to my communist great grandpappy who was a station master in rural Norway and used his hidden radio to help derail a Nazi cargo train

Me when the people I lost a war to make me pick up the mines I left everywhere:

Jesus fuck that's what that emoji is called. I've been trying to recall it, as if I had imagined it in a fever dream, for the past several months.

Imagine thinking it's evil to make Nazis deal with the mines they themselves laid.

Like a toddler being mad they have to put their toys away when done playing.

Guy with runes in his name says what

The krauts put them there so it's only fair they helped clean their mess

Wait, someone in the replies is addressing him as Varg?! Is this his alt

Extremely cucked behaviour of him to simp for the nazis as a Norwegian but completely expected

Who is Varg?
- An infamous figure in the black metal scene
  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varg_Vikernes
  He's a gigantic neo-pagan nazi weirdo with absurdly baffling beliefs even for a nazi, initially got famous for church arson and murdering another black metal musician in the 90s
Norway had one of the strongest support for its nazi puppet government, along with the dutch and french, they joined SS volunteer units in high proportions. However making former occupation forces clear up landmines they put in should be like at the bottom when whining about Norway (especially as an norwegian lol).
I checked the account after reading your post earlier today and it's literally Varg, with an account full of shilling for his dogshit racism ttrpg lmaoooo
- He's still trying to make that shit happen? Lmao

Why are German Fascists terrible at mine clearing?

They obviously didn't attend Mein Kamp

Master race can't even master digging up mines.

Norway being based as fuck is history I didn't know about

They've got a lot to be legitimately proud of in WW2. Another good example is their sabotage of nazi heavy-water production. That significantly set back nazi research into nuclear weapons.

I'm imagining a Norwegian guy sitting on the sides watching them run through the minefield, casually eating an apple, completely undisturbed when Nazis blow up mines and die or get maimed. That made up guy would be cool.

I support Made Up Guy in his endeavors.

I was looking for a picture of suitable Norwegian dudes from WWII, I found this picture instead and it seems like a fitting expression.
- Yeah, that exact guy sitting exactly like that while Nazis run over a minefield.

Speaking of unspeakable evil, Norway too has its share of despicable, evil and shameful behaviour.

Yes! Finally, somebody other than me is going to acknowledge the Norwegian ruling class’s complicity in—

After WWII German POWs were forced to clear minefields and to walk through them after they had cleared them, to make sure they were really clear. Hundreds died or were maimed.

…oh.

I don't get what they're so upset about, I'm sure those Norwegians were just following orders...

Speaking of unspeakable evil

proceeds to describe something unspeakably cool

Edit: link: https://nitter.net/BornLik23266/status/1713331386218615236

should've cleared them better

TBH, people who were made to do it were mostly conscripts, actual Nazis got cushy jobs in NATO and FRG instead.

i am no longer advocating for fascists to get the wall

this is way better

Quite a few mines in Ukraine right now, after the war what's left of Azov should be used for this.

Make Zelensky do it too.
- P sure he’ll have been executed by Nazi death squads for betraying glorious Ukraine long before the opportunity arises

There's a movie about this, but with Denmark instead of Norway. It's well done, I've seen it.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_of_Mine

That's the most
title ive ever read on a real thing
- Sounds good though.
- It's actually not named that originally in Danish. It's named "Under Sandet", which means "Under The Sand". I think this title is a little bit more poetic, and less on the nose than "Land of Mine" hahahha. Just some context, if you're interested.

Thanks bro, means a lot. I definitely need don't have a picture of my Norwegian ancestor actually shaking hands with hitler

Germanic efficiency or... Something

In terms of nordic countries actions during WW2, Norway's probably the least "evil"

Eeeh, lots of Norwegians volunteered in the Hirden, or local chapters of the SS and went to fight on the East front.
The holocaust collaborators in the police force kept their positions and some of them kept working through the 60s or 70s.
Lots of Jewish people and communist sympathizers were killed or enslaved. For example, lots of roads that are still used today were built by slaves from the death camps.
And if anyone's wondering why the norwegian Jewish death tolls were relatively small, it's because Norway didn't have a lot of Jewish people in the first place, as Jewish people had been forbidden to live in Norway since the 1800s.
Norway is a bloodsoaked imperialist country and a bootlicking vassal of the American empire.
It is the sixth largest producer of weapons for the imperialist powers and is guilty of participating in the monstrous bombings of middle Eastern civilians in the service of Yankee interests.
Do not give us credit. We are bastards like everyone else.
- Least fascist nordic social democracy
- Yeah I was just now looking for photos of Norwegian soldiers, and found a decent number of photos of Norwegian SS volunteers instead..
- Jeg vil lære mer...
- And if anyone's wondering why the norwegian Jewish death tolls were relatively small, it's because Norway didn't have a lot of Jewish people in the first place, as Jewish people had been forbidden to live in Norway since the 1800s.
  Dang, and here I had lived under the impression that the Nordic countries were relatively less awful places for Jews compared to the rest of Europe. One of the things I remember reading about the two synagogues in Finland was that they were able to be built in prominent locations whereas in other countries they were often hidden out of view.
  Then again, neither of them is very old and Finland's small Jewish community mostly moved here during the time it was part of the Russian empire as traders and merchants which is similar to how Finland's small Tatar Muslim population also arrived.

rune guy getting mad about dead nazis

Yeah, I looked at their profile and they're a Nazi.
The middle one is used by the American Nazi party and also the republican party.
The first one Þ, although descending from a rune, is not a rune but the letter thorn which represents a sound similar to the English th. It was used in several British and Scandinavian languages in the middle ages and is still used in modern Icelandic.
In this context I don't think we're dealing with a normal Icelandic guy though. There's a Nazi neopagan vibe to him.

Why can't this be the Nordic model!?

And who laid those mines in the first place? (liberal cricket noise)

Guess they didn't do a very good job clearing them then did they

"It's only a war crime when the victims are war criminals!"

Once again, right-wing hypocrisy rears it's ugly head. They basically said "no bad tactics, only bad targets" but spent the 2010s tsk tsking the left that "hate only breeds more hate" when even a couple of teenagers on tumblr were thinking about doing something permanent about the hate criminal problem.
