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

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Thank him for his service on my behalf
If he didn't die 40 years before I was born we'd be best friends I'm sure
Cowboy shit

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
Good thing black metal isn't known for having many Nazis besides that guy 
You've got it all wrong, those bands just love traditional Slavic symbols
Varg is the ur-black metal nazi though. Though I guess at least the murder he committed wasn't a hate crime but some dumb beef with another nerd
I've mentioned it before but Varg is such a dumbass he got his wife to film himself trying to swim across a river while wearing a chain mail hauberk and he almost drowned. He is a clown man without the makeup.

Punk 
Metal
Nazis fuck off!
It's the most infuriating thing about the genre. It's one of the only genres of music that helps my mental health because the anger and fierce riffs calm me down and then I find out one of the band members is a nazi. And suddenly I'm right back to being mad and uncomfortable.

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).

Why are German Fascists terrible at mine clearing?
spoiler
They did Nazi them.
If nazis don't like stepping on mines they should git gud at clearing mines. Skill issue. 
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.

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.

Speaking of unspeakable evil
proceeds to describe something unspeakably cool
Edit: link: https://nitter.net/BornLik23266/status/1713331386218615236
should've cleared them better
Quite a few mines in Ukraine right now, after the war what's left of Azov should be used for this.
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
There's a movie about this, but with Denmark instead of Norway. It's well done, I've seen it.
That's the most 
title ive ever read on a real thing
Sounds good though.

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

Germanic efficiency or... Something

Yeah, I looked at their profile and they're a Nazi.

Why can't this be the Nordic model!?
of course, Norway is a communist country as we all know
And who laid those mines in the first place? (liberal cricket noise)
