Several Swedish lawmakers said Friday they will boycott this year’s Nobel Prize ceremonies after the private foundation that administers the prestigious awards changed its policy and invited Russia, Belarus and Iran who had previously been barred from attending.
WTF is wrong with them?
I suspect there must have been some kind of coup in the Nobel leadership. They also invited Swedens far right party leader despite Banning him for over a decade. That on its own hands the far right in Sweden such an optical win that I can only assume it is malicious. As a Swede I am so fucking disappointed in them.
Edit: coup, not cue. I don’t write words good.
Assuming you meant “coup” and not “cue.” Otherwise, I wouldn’t be at all surprised. Several of the people involved in the Nobel committee seem pretty right-wing.
So more batshit-rightwingers-take-over-things-and-break-them?
SAD!
Dude, it’s your second language. You write better than a lot of native speakers. Don’t beat yourself up over it.
They declined though and said that no one should attend
I’m sorry to break this to you guys, but the Nobel peace prize looooves war criminals. They gave one to Henry Kissinger ffs.
That said this does change my view of the NPP, I always thought they were sycophantic poll chasers who only gave awards to people with good enough PR to hide what monsters they are. Somehow they’ve now aligned themselves with moustache-twirling evil instead of the nonchalant kind.
The peace prize is awarded by Norway, not Sweden
Wrong committee
I mean maybe to export them afterwards to The Hague Court?
I doubt they invited 130M people + few millions more. Who was invited?
Pay attention, these are the countries, the corporations, and the people who worked with the Nazis while they were incinerating Jews, you know … to try to get them on side. Cowards, and villains, all.
Just to be clear, Sweden harbored Jews during WWII and is the main reason why occupied Denmark had a much lower rate of killed than other occupied countries.
What the fk are you talking about?
Removed by mod
Swedes are from Sweden.
Swiss are from Switzerland
And the Swiss are the ones that claimed neutrality while happily helping the Nazis
