What does that last sentence mean in English? (I prefer Queen's but will settle for American.)

Gotta say, I'm confused as fuck as well.

And Trump wanted immigrants from Norway.

 

[Jayjay]

I told them CW's Arrow would lead to this, but they didn't listen.

I've been trying to figure that out about other of none's posts as well.

Btw, the guy in Norway is a Muslim. Not surprising really.

 

[Derec]

Well, these days even they have Muslims.

Norway is an oppressive gilded cage. Denmark is full of Norwegian expats having escaped.

The Utøya massacre and this, I see it as symptoms of this. The deeply ingrained conservatism that suffocates them all. Sometimes some of them, just aren't going to be able to take it anymore.

Norway is a weird society. Extremely impoverished and bullied by everybody up until 1967 when they found oil. Suddenly this broken and oppressed people became super rich.

It's hard to overstate how dependent Norway is on oil. They have no other industries. They're like Venezuela or Saudi Arabia. They keep trying to become less dependent on oil, but it's not going so well. There's a deeply conservative strand in Norwegian culture that prevents change. It's a very religious country. In stark contrast with the rest of Scandinavia.

There's something rotten in the core of Norway. Sweden was a country of dirt poor peasants who got rich by educating engineers which lifted Sweden out of poverty in the 1890'ies. But Sweden is still a country that suffers from a lack of cultural depth or tradition of intellectual pursuits. If you think Sweden is bad. Norway is worse.

Don't over-complicate things. The guy is mentally sick. The fact that he converted to islam is an evidence of that.

I can think of Saab, Volvo, Ikea for Sweden (and ABBA) but cannot think of any Norwegian international companies.
Except King Oscar Sardines


My father would eat these out of the tin whilst watching TV. (I am sure they were spelt King Oskar in the 60-70s)

I find this claim fishy.
