Actually the peace prize is in Norway because when Alfred Nobel lived, Sweden and Norway was the same country, the "United Kingdoms of Sweden and Norway." He wanted at least one of the prizes to be given away in Norway.
elisig 03 they've been involved in many wars. but then again. the country is so young, it has been apart of sweden and denmark for all its life. gained independece from sweden year 1905. but when the monarchies rules over norway you could say that they've "started" a war but they've never actually started a way when it became a country. but as i said they've been involved in wars, for example ww2.
It's very true. We do indeed loathe Trump here in Scandinavia (talking on behalf of Denmark, specifically). I think it's because we're no-bullshit, closed-in kind of people. We just want facts and no "show" when it comes to politics. Also, it's because ignorants, like Trump, like to refer to us as borderline communists because our system is socialist. That's just ridiculous. We hate communism! Communism is oppression and we have none of that here. Another reason why Trump might hate Denmark is that 4-5 % of our population is Muslim (in America it's only 1 %) :)
MrStensnask - I agree on behalf of Finland. Even if we're not technically a part of Scandinavia. Still loathe Trump though. And "we" are unfortunately NOT welcoming to immigrants. We just... enjoy the truth too much to like Trump.
Lemonie, too bad Finland isn't more welcoming to immigrants. Hopefully, it'll come. Sophia, thank you! I'm not sure I would use the word "noble" myself but you're kind :) Are you talking about us during WW2..? Because I'm pretty sure we didn't have a choice. The nazis did whatever they wanted to do. A lot of Danish jews were hidden by people and many more helped over to Sweden via boats. I think we managed to get most of our jewish population out of Denmark during the first year or two of WW2. Horrible times...
I would add your standard of education is better, hence you have the opportunity and capability to say such things. In the past we were racing against the Russians (Soviets) to get to the moon first. Now we have to argue with flat-earthers and climate change deniers and creationists... SMH.
Sorry just have to be that annoying person to point out that Scandinavia is not socialist but social democratic since we to large extent embrace the capitalist system. Also its kind of weird how Trump and his supporter use communism as an insult when they are the ones who think it was a great idea when Trump tries to bring down all companies he disagrees with (no matter if its because they do not want to sell his daughters products, or outsource to Mexico). Because the government having complete control over how companies operates, thats kind of how communism works.
I live in Austria and can say that Austrians have pretty much the same opinion of Trump as the Scandinavians. With the exception of the wannabe neonazis here.
Yes, of course they have a relationship with it. Which is presumably why they recently announced they were deploying the fucking military to certain areas despite "not having a lawlessness" problem. I'd even go as far to say that the Swedish government is the prime fabricator of fake news right behind Russia, North Korea and China. Their entire government is an ideological fuckfest of the highest degree and even a cursory glance at them will demonstrate this. Mind you, this is the same government that has blocked archiving services and translation services on their pro-government news outlets just so the outside world cannot easily see how fucking loopy they really are. They spew fake new on the regular and are now trying to stop the outside world on reporting on it. Fuck, most of Scandinavia doesn't even fucking like Sweden, and thinks they are fucking loopy. Denmark? Yes. Finland? Also yes. Norway? Stretching it more but still somewhat yes. Fucking Sweden? Only in the twilight zone do they appreciate the truth. Don't get me wrong, most of these countries hate Trump, but most of them think Sweden is a laughing stock too.
That remark on deploying the military was a outlash from the opposition parties to score a cheap point. The Prime Minister later responded he did not completely rule out the possibility, but he was hunted down for it and only a few days later backed completely from that statement. It´s very unlikely that the swedish government would deploy troops against it own citizens. Specially (S) since they were the ones who fucked up in Ådalen 1931. That had a huge effect on the party for decades to come.
The US is a shithole in the eyes of almost any developped country really.... I mean they've had the highest poverty rate of all the wealthy countries since 80 years or so.
Believe it or not the American culture war is not the top concern for the rest of the world. The absolutely retarded shit that Trump is doing on the world stage is more of a worry. The continuation of military interventionism, undermining the already meagre global efforts to clean up the atmosphere, the normalisation of lies and bullshit in political discourse. Australia has some seriously strict immigration laws and treats undocumented arrivals like war criminals, and Australians generally think Trump is a fuckwit. Only weirdos go around judging other countries based on their immigration policies. Its more normal to look at the standard of living.and the amount of physical danger people have to live with.
The show stuck pretty close to the book. I stick to audio books since I never get time to sit and read, but I really enjoyed it. According to the reviews of the second book, people have said it's ok but goes way over the top into porn with all the sex, so it makes me wonder what the second season will be about.

As a Dane - I can confirm Denmark’s hatred for Trump. (EDIT: Since when did this comment get so much attention?? Wth - well.. Happy to say that the orange man is no longer in office!)
Kirstjen Nielsen has Danish origins and she "loves" Trump If you soak Scandinavians in the US conservative "culture" long enough, they will "love" Trump too
Yeah.. Don't get me wrong - I am not saying ALL Danes or at least that is not what I am implying. But that is pretty scary how a worldview or political orientation can change so quickly when you are exposed to America. From what I hear - I just know what the majority of us are thinking outside of the US.
Believe me, the majority of the people in this country hate Trump too. He makes me both fume and cringe at his pure ickiness. I can't wait until he's gone.
I am from North Germany and I know a lot of Swedish people and those who I met are very nice, tolerant, open minded, interesting and funny people - I feel comfortable being with them. So I can say I appreciate their values. Go Sweden go!
A heartfelt thank you goes out to you Rose Pearl from Sweden! I have always respected Germany very much! I think you seem to be a very good and nice people!
+ Johnny Mnemonic That comment is only about 150 years too late. The late 19th century was when Swedes emigrated at a record breaking rate from a then poor nation. Then we got democracy, the social democrats held power for like 48 years straight and we went from one of the poorest countries in Europe to one of the richest in the world. Swedish actors regularly go to Hollywood because they get paid shitloads of money for working - but they don't move to the US. Why would they - literally nothing is better there. Unless you count your chances of being shot to death in the latest mass shooting.
Shane Norton to be honest, wasn't sure about him, didn't watch The Killing yet, but Altered Carbon completely changed my mind. He is freaking fantastic, dude is capable of giving great subtle performance, and that's not something many actors can do.

There were no Swedes pillaging English villages. Mostly Danes did that. Then us Norwegians sorted out the Irish and the Scots. The Swedes went to Russia. In fact Russia is named after the Swedes. And yes, speaking as a Norwegian at least, we kinda dislike Trump. We see him as a joke. A potentially dangerous joke.
Ann De Vries "Wasn't Dublin founded by Swedish vikings though?" No, Dublin was founded by the Danes most likely. But here's a map of the most important routes: www.hyperhistory.com/online_n2/images_n2/viking.gif
So what about The Great Heathen Army? Swedes, Norwegians and Danes came together, in fact there is a lot of runestones in Sweden telling stories about people going to England.
Scandinavian countries rank really close to first place as best country with Finland, so why on earth would any of us want to move to America? Even without Trump the whole place's a joke....

Shirley HSW translation wouldn't do them justice but the kids here seem to be more aware of what he represents than the Trump voters I've conversed with ;)
We needed Trump, though. The Obamacare individual mandate was forcing people to pay money to not have insurance, a tyrannical penalty they could not afford. It had a disapproval rating of 60% as part of the ACA and Hillary was only going to expand it. I'm sorry but... Obama, Hillary and Bernie's policies just aren't an option. I'm a Democrat and I voted for Trump.
Emma Brown might wanna say that instead next time, that he's great at public speaking or that he's great at rhetoric, or that he's so much better at it than you and that you admire it :D The specific phrase "You/they are well spoken" has too many negative connotations when it comes to e.g. USA.
I never thought it an odd comment.. the statement is true.. And as far as U.S. well.. we need to get over it.. With our education system the way it is, we have fewer of well spoken people.. those who embody sensibilities, humanity, fervor for life and can communicate those assets..
Semsem Eini That`s were you get it wrong , we do not see ourself as europeans, europe is a continent. Some countries may be very similar to each other like the scandinavian countries, but if you compare it to italy etc.. Its night and day.
No matter what is going on in Sweden - and there are some bad things going on - Scandinavians do in general hate Trump. If he were to run in Scandinavia his support would be in the single digits (and very low single digits I would wager). I certainly have never met a Dane who supported him. Not one. So one thing does not negate the other. Sweden has done some very stupid things with their immigration policy and the ensuing leftist cover-up, of that there is no question. That said, make no fucking mistake that Sweden is still better off than most places on earth. Although it has taken a massive step in the wrong direction.
@@EpicLionMusic It's not an argument. It's an assertion in the form of a generalisation, and as much as any generalisation ever can be, it happens to be true.

On the subject of immortality and power Chaplin said it best: "The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish."
Are you saying saying the oppression that ruled England for centuries under the monarchy is all made up? Your quote sounds nice but history shows that oppression and suffering lasts for generations, centuries, even millini in some cases.
Nah, as usual the media tries to control your thoughts. There are many swedes who like Trump, just as there are many swedes who hates muslims and many swedes who want abortion to be illegal. The media is not talking about this.
@@jonjonboi3701 Switzerland likes Trump?I don't think so😅 I feel like the Swiss people literally don't like any other politicians outside of Switzerland 😂 also, remember how last year Trump said he wants to buy Switzerland.
It's actually funny how Finland, being a very out-of-the-way and forgotten country in Europe, and being super peaceful, has one of the biggest armies in Europe, with the largest artillery. Like if you look at Sweden, they have about 20 000 active duty troops and another 30 000 in reserve. Finland right next to them has around 34 000 active duty troops, but with more than 900 000 in reserve. So personnel-wise the Finnish military is about half that of the U.S. Military, which is an insane thing to think about
@@Doomin-c2m Sweden doesn't share a border with our dear eastern neighbour, that's why they abolished conscription while we still have it. We're kinda forced to keep it running to be honest, especially since we're not a Nato member.

@Peter Möller Yep. To our knowledge Trudeau has not committed an act of Treason against our country. Should we ever have a reason to believe differently we would, of course, take swift action to remove him and charge him and any associates for crimes committed. It's only logical.
@Peter Möller Trudeau has issues but let's not pretend he or virtually any other leader of a developed nation is anywhere near Trump's level of insanity
Honesty, I'm from Sweden and hadn't heard of Trudeau, because he wasn't attacked by the Swedish media, but now I know that he's a even bigger moron than Trump. Also, do you represent the entirety of Canada's population?
I went to Europe, including Sweden & Denmark for a holiday 6 months ago and they are some of the nicest people around. I have some lovely Swedish friends in the South who gave me warm hospitality and I enjoyed talking to people everywhere I went as they were very friendly and helpful :) I did try to learn Swedish but it's a pretty hard language to learn :) I'm very fond of their herring though not so sure about the fermented stuff!

The real answer to the question of why Norway gives out the Nobel peace prize and Sweden gives out all the other prices is because Norway as a country has never started a war (viking raids don't count). Sweden has, and so Alfred Nobel felt that Sweden wasn't "qualified" to give out the peace prize :)
Uhm no, the real reason is actually not known for sure but it is believed to be that the political situation in Sweden at the time of Alfred Nobels death was a bit unstable, in Norway however it wasn't, so Nobel probably felt it was more fitting that Norway and a Norweigan commitee handeled the Peace prize.
@@AlwaysMegaHot That is not one of the possible reasons listed as most likely on the website of the Norwegian Nobel institute. It could be that Alfred considered Norway a more peaceful country, it could be due to his admiration for Norwegian literature or as a result of Sweden and Norway technically being the same country at the time of his death.
Norway and Sweden were under a personal union when he died, so he probably gave it to Norway as "Norway" did not have any international political power and so was a perfect "Neutral" nation to hand out the peace prize.

"Oh that's interesting. Is that ever going to be relevant at all, will she be soultrapping anyone or doing cool mystical stuff?" "Not really, no." "Oh. Cool exposition though."
To be fair he did the best he could with that horrible script. The one part in Suicide Squad that made me genuinely laugh was Kinnaman's line delivery of the word "yes" when they see the Enchantress near the end and ask if that's his girlfriend.
OMG! He hit the nail on his comment "Scandinavian don't like Trump " because I was in Denmark last Thanksgiving (2018 ). Because, all the Danish people that we spoke to never once did they say anything good or possitve about Trump. And for that reason, I decided to speak Spanish The entire time I was in Denmark. Because I was embarrassed to say I came from USA. And the same happened in Barcelona, no Spanish like Trump. When we landed in Spain we were saying that we came from Mexico because the same thing...🙄🙄😑
@@Patricia-zt8ub You mean like Danish people? Because the entire time I was in Denmark, I talked to a lot of Danish people and never once did they corrected me on using Dane or Danish? I'm a bit confused 🤔🙄
Meisy Gonzalez that’s understandable. Honestly I would be embarrassed too. At least you seem intelligent and self aware and can speak another language so that already differentiates you from the typical stereotype of Americans that we often have.
A few months late, but thought I'd answer anyway. We are Danes AND we are Danish ppl. Both are correct. However, it gets annoying, when ppl (no1 in this thread) start talking about the Denmark language (correct is Danish language or just Danish) or a Denmark news paper (again, correct is Danish news paper), and all kinds of other things like that. Ive noticed to my annoyance, that ur media does that a LOT, so cant really blame ordinary Americans for that 1. But seriously, Denmark (or in our own language Danmark) is the name of our country, we do not use it for anything else. Its always Danish whatever-it-is. With Dane as an alternative for a Danish person. But most of us arent too hung up about grammar, we're more about the spirit of it. Just another reason we hate Trump, tho he mangles the grammar too 😜
Most Americans hate him too, lol. He has the lowest approval ratings of any President since the invention of polling. And even the Americans that DO give him a thumbs up in polls, half of them do it simply to be "nice." That's not a joke - there's a long tradition in America of "supporting the President" even if you disagree with him. It's considered polite and civilized. And though American politics are more divided and partisan than ever, a lot of Americans, especially older Americans, would ALWAYS say yes to the question, "Do you approve of the job the President is doing?", regardless of their politics or how they actually felt about him. So if you see a poll that says 36% of Americans approve of Trump, the real number is closer to about 20-25%. Incidentally, this is also why Americans appear so religious in polls. It's considered rude to tell someone you don't believe in God. It's a byproduct of 1st amendment religious freedom. To say you don't believe in God would offend someone, and many would even consider it religious discrimination to say that. So even though polls say something like 80% of Americans believe in God, the number is probably closer to 50-60%. And that's regional, too. I'm a Yankee, and up here, I would say only about 20-30% of people believe in God, tops.
revelwoodie: That's an interesting observation, thanks. But it wasn't being polite that almost put a religious wing nut like Moore into a judge's robes and very nearly into the Senate...or put one into the VP's office. In other western countries, both would have been run out on a rail long before the campaign ever began.
Very true...as I said, there are huge regional differences. Roy Moore only got as far as he did because he was running in Alabama. He would never even have gotten on the ballot anywhere else in America. Well, maybe Mississippi or Arkansas, lol...
I live in Belgium and I cannot say that I hate Trump. To hate somebody I think it needs something different. However my level of respect for this president would be, on a scale from 0 to 10, would be -1.
The peace prize was given out by a commite in Oslo while Norway was a part of the kingdom of sweden. So.. I guess they got to keep it after they got their independence ?
Alfred Nobel wanted the peace price to be handed out in Oslo. Don't think he foresaw the separation of Norway from Sweden, but I think it was generally accepted to honor his will and testament. So Oslo / Norway got to keep it :)
Fred. You are in the minority. There is a recent article that shows Germans find Trump as untrustworthy as they do with Putin. Only 22% of Germans approve of Trump.
Can you post that poll KB Peters because quite frankly the brainwashing of Germans in particular is very high amongst the media, same as the United States if not worse. I as well know a lot of German who are silently Trump followers because of the fear of being labeled a racist by people like you they tend to act like they dont favor him.
Stephen. You haven't got you Viking history right. The Swedish Vikings went east and south. The Norwegians went west and so did the Danish Vikings. We know that because of the artifacts and ships found. Samples from the ships wood have been matched to the different countries wood.
Greetings from Sweden. When Alfred Nobel lived, Norway and Sweden was a union (until 1905). Nobel wrote in his will that the peace prize should be awarded by Norway (Oslo). So, thanks to Alfred Nobel our beloved neighbours and very dear friends in Norway are responsible for the Nobel Peace Prize.
You should secede and join Norway, just think of the amount of grief it would give Trump looking at a map and seeing a blob in America called Norway. It would be glorious!
And most of the Viking activity in what is todays Scotland was from the coastal waters that are now in Norway. I mean, look at a map, makes sense doesn't it?
Fact check fact check: since the topic of discussion was Scandinavians in general, and the question that resulted in that comment mentioned both Sweden and Norway, it's unreasonable to assume that it was referring only to Swedes.

Dear Stephen, Alexander Skarsgård is Stellan Skarsgårds son! How did you not know that? The Skarsgårds i ONE family, like the Baldwins without the issues and drama. That is why there are so many Skarsgårds in Hollywood: Bill, Gustaf, Alexander and their dad Stellan
Odd isn't it. At the very least he should have know Stellan. Personally I think Gustaf has the edge talent wise from the younger generation, but they're all good.
Gustaf went to Stockholm Academy of Dramatic Arts (which is a pretty prestigious drama school in Sweden), while the other ones in the family are selftaught, I think. He has also done stage work.

Alternatively: The Norwegians give out a peace prize as an annual reminder that if they _wanted_ they could go Viking again. So everyone plays nice with them.
No, Max. The reason the Nobel Peace Price is given out in Norway - as is stated in Nobel's will at least - is because Nobel thought Sweden too conservative, while the Norwegians were more progressive. He wanted that particular price to be a progressive price. Norway had no nobility or any kind of "old power", it was a province of peasants building a new nation. Nobel wanted that kind of freshness to the price. Which is why I think we should stop caring about the Nobel Peace Price, it's given out by the Norwegian parliament and today it's filled with political favours. Giving the price to the EU or to Obama at the very start of his term. The Nobel Peace Price means nothing anymore, Norway isn't as progressive, fresh and uncorrupt as it was back in Nobel's days.
Our constitution drawn in 1814 forbids making new nobles, and in 1821 the government passed a law which abolished the nobility. They were only allowed to keep their titles for the duration of their lifetime. So already in Nobels times, it was more or less gone. By the time Nobel's will was written, only one or two nobles were still alive, but they had absolutely no power or privilege other than their title. Basically there were no nobles, the few nobles still left would all have been over 80 years old. But they had absolutely no power or influence, or had any say in how Norway was run. Compare that to Sweden which still have nobility to this day.

Time to be pedantic. The Swedish vikings did not attack England (that was mostly just the Danes and Norwegians). The Swedes went and screwed with the Ruskies instead
kloggmonkey the English had a Danish king if I remember correctly. But that could be around one of the times the Danes and Norwegians where joined together
Well if you want to be pedantic you should perhaps read up a little on your history. Yes, the vast majority of Norsemen that raided Britain were Danes and Norwegians, but Swedes (Svear) went there too. There are several rune stones in Uppland, Sweden (in the heart of Svealand) for instance, that talk of adventures in "västerled" (westward) which generally means The British Isles.
Correct there was a danish king of most of England, and the occupied areas were called Danelaw. However back then, I dont think they individually cared much about if you were from Norway, Denmark, Skåne or Sweden, they all spoke the same dialect more or less as far as I know.
Hi 👋 I’m also from Sweden and I want to say how proud I’m of 1. Joel Kinnaman and 2. Alexander Skarsgård. and of course 3. Alicia Wikander They’re three amazing actors. I’ve never seen any of these in an interview like this one. Seeing Joel in your late show was a true moment of proudness. Love to y’all / Grace 🌺💗😍
Thank you Joe for telling us that Scandinavians hate Trump. I m Asian and a lot of us feel the same. Having Trump back is like having Covid back to stay for 4 years
To the people saying he should not speak for everybody, please stop yourself. Of course he is generalising. Now lets get some fact about scandinavian countries. Sweden: According to sverigesradio, 80% of swedes dislike trump, while only 10% like him. He was also ranked as the most disliked international leader, with a score of -39 (50 is the best, -50 is the worst). For comparison, Putin scored -35. Norway: 4 out of 5 norwegians dislike trump. This is a maximum of 20% liking him as a president. Also here, they liked Vladimir Putin more than Donald Trump. Denmark: Only 4% of danes wanted Trump as president. Our foreign minister (at least then) also stated that Trump would make relations between Denmark and USA harder. Also, danes rank Trump as a bigger threat to humanity and the earth than climate change. They say that they think a war with North Korea is more likely under Trumps leadership, and they think that he has damaged the worlds initiatives against global warming. Of course some like him, but the truth is that majority dont.
Majority in sweden are brainwashed by the media here. I am a swede and I know how our madia portrais things about the US. Apperantly Obama NEVER did anything wrong. Peace price while he killed people
In the beginning when he says Joel is a stealth foreigner, does he say the word "foreigner"? Cause it really sounds like "ferner" and I think that's what Joel heard too. Is that even a word or is it just "foreigner" pronounced weirdly? Cause I activated the subtitles and they say ferner too, but I have never heard that word.
He is right.. i love this guy.. i love swedish people.. they are nice than norwegians. And he is right we scandi people love the truth.. its a thing that is of most importance
Im pretty sure Trump supporters or Americans for that matter don't really care whether European countries "like" Trump as long as he benefits America. What is this high school?
+theassheep Americans or Trump supporters don't know any better? If that's what you meant I think they would have a better idea of how hes doing for the country than Europeans or any other country for that matter.
Actually the peace prize is in Norway because when Alfred Nobel lived, Sweden and Norway was the same country, the "United Kingdoms of Sweden and Norway." He wanted at least one of the prizes to be given away in Norway.
And because Norway have never started a war
Who cares about nobel prize.
They gave one to an american president for peace.

elisig 03 they've been involved in many wars. but then again. the country is so young, it has been apart of sweden and denmark for all its life. gained independece from sweden year 1905. but when the monarchies rules over norway you could say that they've "started" a war but they've never actually started a way when it became a country. but as i said they've been involved in wars, for example ww2.

It's very true. We do indeed loathe Trump here in Scandinavia (talking on behalf of Denmark, specifically). I think it's because we're no-bullshit, closed-in kind of people. We just want facts and no "show" when it comes to politics. Also, it's because ignorants, like Trump, like to refer to us as borderline communists because our system is socialist. That's just ridiculous. We hate communism! Communism is oppression and we have none of that here. Another reason why Trump might hate Denmark is that 4-5 % of our population is Muslim (in America it's only 1 %) :)
MrStensnask - I agree on behalf of Finland. Even if we're not technically a part of Scandinavia. Still loathe Trump though. And "we" are unfortunately NOT welcoming to immigrants. We just... enjoy the truth too much to like Trump.
Lemonie, too bad Finland isn't more welcoming to immigrants. Hopefully, it'll come.
Sophia, thank you! I'm not sure I would use the word "noble" myself but you're kind :) Are you talking about us during WW2..? Because I'm pretty sure we didn't have a choice. The nazis did whatever they wanted to do. A lot of Danish jews were hidden by people and many more helped over to Sweden via boats. I think we managed to get most of our jewish population out of Denmark during the first year or two of WW2. Horrible times...
I would add your standard of education is better, hence you have the opportunity and capability to say such things.
In the past we were racing against the Russians (Soviets) to get to the moon first. Now we have to argue with flat-earthers and climate change deniers and creationists... SMH.
Sorry just have to be that annoying person to point out that Scandinavia is not socialist but social democratic since we to large extent embrace the capitalist system.
Also its kind of weird how Trump and his supporter use communism as an insult when they are the ones who think it was a great idea when Trump tries to bring down all companies he disagrees with (no matter if its because they do not want to sell his daughters products, or outsource to Mexico). Because the government having complete control over how companies operates, thats kind of how communism works.
I live in Austria and can say that Austrians have pretty much the same opinion of Trump as the Scandinavians. With the exception of the wannabe neonazis here.
"We have this relationship with truth, you know - we appreciate it." 👏👏 well done, sir
Yes, of course they have a relationship with it.
Which is presumably why they recently announced they were deploying the fucking military to certain areas despite "not having a lawlessness" problem.
I'd even go as far to say that the Swedish government is the prime fabricator of fake news right behind Russia, North Korea and China. Their entire government is an ideological fuckfest of the highest degree and even a cursory glance at them will demonstrate this. Mind you, this is the same government that has blocked archiving services and translation services on their pro-government news outlets just so the outside world cannot easily see how fucking loopy they really are. They spew fake new on the regular and are now trying to stop the outside world on reporting on it.
Fuck, most of Scandinavia doesn't even fucking like Sweden, and thinks they are fucking loopy. Denmark? Yes. Finland? Also yes. Norway? Stretching it more but still somewhat yes. Fucking Sweden? Only in the twilight zone do they appreciate the truth. Don't get me wrong, most of these countries hate Trump, but most of them think Sweden is a laughing stock too.
That remark on deploying the military was a outlash from the opposition parties to score a cheap point. The Prime Minister later responded he did not completely rule out the possibility, but he was hunted down for it and only a few days later backed completely from that statement.
It´s very unlikely that the swedish government would deploy troops against it own citizens.
Specially (S) since they were the ones who fucked up in Ådalen 1931. That had a huge effect on the party for decades to come.

Land Down Under agrees
Believe it or not the American culture war is not the top concern for the rest of the world.
The absolutely retarded shit that Trump is doing on the world stage is more of a worry.
The continuation of military interventionism, undermining the already meagre global efforts to clean up the atmosphere, the normalisation of lies and bullshit in political discourse.
Australia has some seriously strict immigration laws and treats undocumented arrivals like war criminals, and Australians generally think Trump is a fuckwit.
Only weirdos go around judging other countries based on their immigration policies. Its more normal to look at the standard of living.and the amount of physical danger people have to live with.

That comment is only about 150 years too late.
The late 19th century was when Swedes emigrated at a record breaking rate from a then poor nation.
Then we got democracy, the social democrats held power for like 48 years straight and we went from one of the poorest countries in Europe to one of the richest in the world.
Swedish actors regularly go to Hollywood because they get paid shitloads of money for working - but they don't move to the US.
Why would they - literally nothing is better there.

There were no Swedes pillaging English villages. Mostly Danes did that. Then us Norwegians sorted out the Irish and the Scots. The Swedes went to Russia. In fact Russia is named after the Swedes.
And yes, speaking as a Norwegian at least, we kinda dislike Trump. We see him as a joke. A potentially dangerous joke.

Clearly not the "me me me " close minded bigots who voted for him.
No matter what is going on in Sweden - and there are some bad things going on - Scandinavians do in general hate Trump. If he were to run in Scandinavia his support would be in the single digits (and very low single digits I would wager). I certainly have never met a Dane who supported him. Not one.
So one thing does not negate the other. Sweden has done some very stupid things with their immigration policy and the ensuing leftist cover-up, of that there is no question. That said, make no fucking mistake that Sweden is still better off than most places on earth. Although it has taken a massive step in the wrong direction.
Europe has 44 countries in various sizes. With their own government. You sound very ignorant mate.

Fantastic series! Watch it. Better than Blade runner.
It is ana amazing show watched it all in two days
Watch the show - it’s different in ways from the book, but I think they are effective changes. Joel K is awesome in it and there are some truly sweet action sequences interspersed with real questions about mortality, morality, intelligence (ie AIs) and humanity.
On the subject of immortality and power Chaplin said it best: "The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish."
Well that's not disheartening...
That whole speech is so great
Are you saying saying the oppression that ruled England for centuries under the monarchy is all made up? Your quote sounds nice but history shows that oppression and suffering lasts for generations, centuries, even millini in some cases.
Is England still oppressed? No? Well there's your answer.
It's a nice speech, but that line "we think too much and feel too little" seems like the exact opposite of the problem.
Joel, as a fellow Swede, you make me proud!
The majority don't just hate him, we litteraly despise him above everything else. So Joel was just being nice by toning it down a bit.

They were talking about Sweden in particular though.
It's actually funny how Finland, being a very out-of-the-way and forgotten country in Europe, and being super peaceful, has one of the biggest armies in Europe, with the largest artillery. Like if you look at Sweden, they have about 20 000 active duty troops and another 30 000 in reserve. Finland right next to them has around 34 000 active duty troops, but with more than 900 000 in reserve. So personnel-wise the Finnish military is about half that of the U.S. Military, which is an insane thing to think about

The real answer to the question of why Norway gives out the Nobel peace prize and Sweden gives out all the other prices is because Norway as a country has never started a war (viking raids don't count). Sweden has, and so Alfred Nobel felt that Sweden wasn't "qualified" to give out the peace prize :)
I heard it was to honour Norway
Uhm no, the real reason is actually not known for sure but it is believed to be that the political situation in Sweden at the time of Alfred Nobels death was a bit unstable, in Norway however it wasn't, so Nobel probably felt it was more fitting that Norway and a Norweigan commitee handeled the Peace prize.
@@AlwaysMegaHot That is not one of the possible reasons listed as most likely on the website of the Norwegian Nobel institute. It could be that Alfred considered Norway a more peaceful country, it could be due to his admiration for Norwegian literature or as a result of Sweden and Norway technically being the same country at the time of his death.
Norway and Sweden were under a personal union when he died, so he probably gave it to Norway as "Norway" did not have any international political power and so was a perfect "Neutral" nation to hand out the peace prize.

A few months late, but thought I'd answer anyway. We are Danes AND we are Danish ppl. Both are correct.
However, it gets annoying, when ppl (no1 in this thread) start talking about the Denmark language (correct is Danish language or just Danish) or a Denmark news paper (again, correct is Danish news paper), and all kinds of other things like that. Ive noticed to my annoyance, that ur media does that a LOT, so cant really blame ordinary Americans for that 1. But seriously, Denmark (or in our own language Danmark) is the name of our country, we do not use it for anything else. Its always Danish whatever-it-is. With Dane as an alternative for a Danish person.
But most of us arent too hung up about grammar, we're more about the spirit of it. Just another reason we hate Trump, tho he mangles the grammar too 😜
I think Joel Kinnaman could play an efficient villain for a James Bond movie. A lethal henchmen.
For your info: The Nobel piece prize is delivered in Norway because when Alfred Nobel died Norway and Sweden were in a union.
En riktigt bra ostmacka och ett glas mjölk!
or in english: yeah we hate that dude!
Most Americans hate him too, lol. He has the lowest approval ratings of any President since the invention of polling. And even the Americans that DO give him a thumbs up in polls, half of them do it simply to be "nice." That's not a joke - there's a long tradition in America of "supporting the President" even if you disagree with him. It's considered polite and civilized. And though American politics are more divided and partisan than ever, a lot of Americans, especially older Americans, would ALWAYS say yes to the question, "Do you approve of the job the President is doing?", regardless of their politics or how they actually felt about him.
So if you see a poll that says 36% of Americans approve of Trump, the real number is closer to about 20-25%.
Incidentally, this is also why Americans appear so religious in polls. It's considered rude to tell someone you don't believe in God. It's a byproduct of 1st amendment religious freedom. To say you don't believe in God would offend someone, and many would even consider it religious discrimination to say that. So even though polls say something like 80% of Americans believe in God, the number is probably closer to 50-60%. And that's regional, too. I'm a Yankee, and up here, I would say only about 20-30% of people believe in God, tops.

But it wasn't being polite that almost put a religious wing nut like Moore into a judge's robes and very nearly into the Senate...or put one into the VP's office.
In other western countries, both would have been run out on a rail long before the campaign ever began.
Very true...as I said, there are huge regional differences. Roy Moore only got as far as he did because he was running in Alabama. He would never even have gotten on the ballot anywhere else in America. Well, maybe Mississippi or Arkansas, lol...

I live in Belgium and I cannot say that I hate Trump. To hate somebody I think it needs something different. However my level of respect for this president would be, on a scale from 0 to 10, would be -1.

Sorry..wrong answer. This man is trying to destroy democracy all over the world. HATE HIM. IT'S Okay.
@Liz Roberts may i ask why?
Judith hayes Well he is not trying to destroy anything but sure, release your anger any way u want
@Liz Roberts still u need to explain that statement if u want it to have meaning, u need to explain on what points u dislike him
To all Scandinavians in the comments....
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Does that love go out to both sides of the scandinavians?
Tak, i lige måde.
@@Redaktionen3210 - Say what?
Merete, does the love go out to both sides of trump? Both haters and lovers of trump?
Redaktionen3210 There are no Trump lovers in Scandinavia!!! If there were they would be locked up in mental hospitals.
The peace prize was given out by a commite in Oslo while Norway was a part of the kingdom of sweden. So.. I guess they got to keep it after they got their independence ?
Yepp
Alfred Nobel wanted the peace price to be handed out in Oslo. Don't think he foresaw the separation of Norway from Sweden, but I think it was generally accepted to honor his will and testament. So Oslo / Norway got to keep it :)
That would be "regained their independence".
Good point Einar :)
When you like an actor better as the characters they play vs who they are in reality.

Look who is talking. A Fox News watcher, like the POTUS?
Klara Stern - No, I hate Putin. But he is a top of the iceberg created by your fellow liberals in 199x-s.

I love his voice, I am following him on instagram and he is incredible smart, he is an talented actor and i hope he will star in a lot of movies.
Scandinavians, Brits, French, Germans, Canadians and Australians all despise Trump ... the irony is strong here
The feeling is mutual buddy.
Fred Seriously? Why?
+Fred
Well, Germany has a long history of horrible political views. Not all of you people are sane.
Fred. You are in the minority. There is a recent article that shows Germans find Trump as untrustworthy as they do with Putin. Only 22% of Germans approve of Trump.
Can you post that poll KB Peters because quite frankly the brainwashing of Germans in particular is very high amongst the media, same as the United States if not worse. I as well know a lot of German who are silently Trump followers because of the fear of being labeled a racist by people like you they tend to act like they dont favor him.
Stephen. You haven't got you Viking history right. The Swedish Vikings went east and south. The Norwegians went west and so did the Danish Vikings. We know that because of the artifacts and ships found. Samples from the ships wood have been matched to the different countries wood.
Fortunately we can ALL agree on Joel Kinnaman! ❤
Greetings from Sweden. When Alfred Nobel lived, Norway and Sweden was a union (until 1905). Nobel wrote in his will that the peace prize should be awarded by Norway (Oslo). So, thanks to Alfred Nobel our beloved neighbours and very dear friends in Norway are responsible for the Nobel Peace Prize.
It’s funny what he says about the English farmers and the vikings, cause that was Norwegian vikings, not Swedish ones.
I’m from Chicago and we don’t like him here either.
I am also a Chicagoan and can vouch for the accuracy of this comment.
Me too! What a putz!
Chicago, capitol of Europe 😂
You should secede and join Norway, just think of the amount of grief it would give Trump looking at a map and seeing a blob in America called Norway. It would be glorious!
Makes sense, you guys hate any sort of law or stability it seems.
Fact check: the British Vikings were mostly from Norway and Denmark, not Sweden.
Fact check: in those days there was no Norway Denmark or Sweden. ;)
And most of the Viking activity in what is todays Scotland was from the coastal waters that are now in Norway. I mean, look at a map, makes sense doesn't it?
Fact check fact check: since the topic of discussion was Scandinavians in general, and the question that resulted in that comment mentioned both Sweden and Norway, it's unreasonable to assume that it was referring only to Swedes.
Fact check: back in the day it was all fucking Denmark
Oh yeah he totally didn’t cancel a statevisit to Denmark that costed them millions just because he couldnt get Greenland by the greenlandic people and then blaming Denmark
oh, i read Altered Carbon. i didn't think they could make that into a TV show.
Snaggle Toothed Is it up there with the most expensive Netflix movie? Which honestly, I couldn’t keep my eyes open to finish. I’m still debating on if I want to watch Altered Carbon.
It was surprisingly alright
It's actually reaaally good.

great series. i watch it right now.
This is so true haha, we seriously hate trump in Scandinavia
I like Scandinavia, but certainly not because they would hate someone ( i am not sure about that...because in Sweden there’s a lot of FR ppl here). Kinnaman is just an asshole...
And we hate Scandinavians over here in America.
Please, you can't even find us on a map.
Eter Puralis but i could notice your mom on the road
Probably not, since his mother is Scandinavian, not American...
Dear Stephen,
Alexander Skarsgård is Stellan Skarsgårds son! How did you not know that? The Skarsgårds i ONE family, like the Baldwins without the issues and drama. That is why there are so many Skarsgårds in Hollywood: Bill, Gustaf, Alexander and their dad Stellan
Odd isn't it. At the very least he should have know Stellan. Personally I think Gustaf has the edge talent wise from the younger generation, but they're all good.
Ann De Vries gustaf certainly has a wider range hasn't he?
Gustaf went to Stockholm Academy of Dramatic Arts (which is a pretty prestigious drama school in Sweden), while the other ones in the family are selftaught, I think. He has also done stage work.
As a Scandinavian I can confirm that the title is 100% correct👍
Talk for yourself and your friends
@@TheDanixx Actaully we are talking on behalf of the different Scandinavian constitutions, and how our leaders acts and behaves.. And we simply can draw a destinction between what Trump is about, and what we stand for, based upon our constitution and how our government behaves and acts.. I can speak for Norway.. And the norwegian government isnt fond of Trump.. He is a narcissist, liar and a piece of shit who does everything for the rich in America, does little no nothing for the middle class and simply doesnt care about poverty.. He is a small man, who simply cannot ever take responsability for his faults or heck, even his actions.. But he loves to take credit for other peoples actions... Thats where he shines in the eyes of his cult constituency.. Like yourself i assume...
Yes because every single Scandinavian thinks the exact same.
@@darkwolf4434 : At least 1,3 million swedes like Trump.
@@lemurengustav6017 Ok, that's why I think annoying that someone thinks they can speak for the entire population instead doing recearch like you just did. Well Done!
I love Joel so much. Rooting for his success since the Killing. So happy that he reunited with Enos in the new series.
We hate Trump as well. Greetings from the Caribbean.
Swedes actually like Trump, the country is represented by leftard goverment dicks who suck multiculti dicks all day how ever... Just like you guys do.
Go suck some crabs, shithole countries, you need jesus every single one of you
@@EpicLionMusic No they don't maybe you like him. But in general people in Sweden don't. Read a book called Fear by Bob Woodward and you will probably change your mind a bit.
@@anton6529 They do like Trump, read my comment. You need Jesus aswell mvh
LemS No they don’t. Why do you think Swedish media criticizes Trump because the people simply hate him and they will get more views/money. What do you mean Jesus, are you afraid of the truth about Trump. Because that book sure tells it.
The reason the Novel peace price is given out in Oslo is because Norway was part of Sweden when Nobel wrote his will.
Alternatively: The Norwegians give out a peace prize as an annual reminder that if they _wanted_ they could go Viking again. So everyone plays nice with them.
No, Max.
The reason the Nobel Peace Price is given out in Norway - as is stated in Nobel's will at least - is because Nobel thought Sweden too conservative, while the Norwegians were more progressive. He wanted that particular price to be a progressive price.
Norway had no nobility or any kind of "old power", it was a province of peasants building a new nation. Nobel wanted that kind of freshness to the price.
Which is why I think we should stop caring about the Nobel Peace Price, it's given out by the Norwegian parliament and today it's filled with political favours. Giving the price to the EU or to Obama at the very start of his term. The Nobel Peace Price means nothing anymore, Norway isn't as progressive, fresh and uncorrupt as it was back in Nobel's days.
Our constitution drawn in 1814 forbids making new nobles, and in 1821 the government passed a law which abolished the nobility.
They were only allowed to keep their titles for the duration of their lifetime.
So already in Nobels times, it was more or less gone. By the time Nobel's will was written, only one or two nobles were still alive, but they had absolutely no power or privilege other than their title. Basically there were no nobles, the few nobles still left would all have been over 80 years old. But they had absolutely no power or influence, or had any say in how Norway was run.
Compare that to Sweden which still have nobility to this day.
Nabium Ever since a former prime minister became the head of the committee it has gotten more political...
Nabium Norway is a monarchy just like Sweden and Denmark. Only Finland isn't.

The reason the peace prize is awarded by Norway is that it'd be hypocritical of us to give it considering our history with occupying countries, especially Norway and Finland.
It(Norway) was also a part of Sweden(sort of) when Nobel died.
Mookthilda King While tha may be true. The simple reason is Alfred Nobel stated in his will that he wanted the peace prize to be held in Norway.

Time to be pedantic. The Swedish vikings did not attack England (that was mostly just the Danes and Norwegians). The Swedes went and screwed with the Ruskies instead
true, the swedish vikings were mostly in the baltic. but did the danes invade the british isles as well? i thought it was mainly norwegians.
kloggmonkey the English had a Danish king if I remember correctly. But that could be around one of the times the Danes and Norwegians where joined together
Vikings from Sweden, Norway and Denmark came together in the Great Heathen Army so in the end they all attacked England.
Well if you want to be pedantic you should perhaps read up a little on your history. Yes, the vast majority of Norsemen that raided Britain were Danes and Norwegians, but Swedes (Svear) went there too. There are several rune stones in Uppland, Sweden (in the heart of Svealand) for instance, that talk of adventures in "västerled" (westward) which generally means The British Isles.
Correct there was a danish king of most of England, and the occupied areas were called Danelaw. However back then, I dont think they individually cared much about if you were from Norway, Denmark, Skåne or Sweden, they all spoke the same dialect more or less as far as I know.
more joel, *please!* 🙏 🙏 never get enough of him, he's awesome!! looking forward to checking out his new show. 👍👍
Seriously one of my most favorite science fiction concepts of all time. Can't wait to watch Altered Carbon!
(And those boots are top-notch)
Nice of him to talk for all of us ...
Who'd have thought that Altered Carbon would be one of the best new shows of the decade.
most Japanese (politic people) hate him too
Dishonor. Trump is a great man and this comes from a Swede.
You mean a specific political opinion?
That was actually a very great elevator pitch of Altered Carbon. I would've missed my floor to keep listening to him for sure.
Danes Swedes & Norwegians could unite in their dislike for trump.
plus the whole of western europe
Hi 👋
I’m also from Sweden and I want to say how proud I’m of
1. Joel Kinnaman and
2. Alexander Skarsgård. and of course
3. Alicia Wikander
They’re three amazing actors.
I’ve never seen any of these in an interview like this one.
Seeing Joel in your late show was a true moment of proudness.
Love to y’all
/ Grace 🌺💗😍
You proud that they spread hate and misinformation?
@@Liam-fs5fe The left will be the infatile left.
Crazy Canuck What?
First became aware of Kinnaman on The Killing, loved him in Altered Carbon too
He's done robo cop and suicide squad
Thank you Joe for telling us that Scandinavians hate Trump. I m Asian and a lot of us feel the same. Having Trump back is like having Covid back to stay for 4 years
How you can tell how he's a Swede is how he says "eh", "emh" instead of "ah" "amh" :D
he was awesome in The Killing
scott david yea gimme a cheese burger...hold the burger lol
Also, the Killing was based on a Danish TV production - so ofcourse a Scandinavian would be awesome in it! 😉
scott david haven't seen that
My school have a feud with that high school he talked about lmao
Plato said, the Atlantians were Nordic !! We are good . Strong. and peaceful. We're good .
To the people saying he should not speak for everybody, please stop yourself. Of course he is generalising. Now lets get some fact about scandinavian countries.
Sweden:
According to sverigesradio, 80% of swedes dislike trump, while only 10% like him. He was also ranked as the most disliked international leader, with a score of -39 (50 is the best, -50 is the worst). For comparison, Putin scored -35.
Norway: 4 out of 5 norwegians dislike trump. This is a maximum of 20% liking him as a president. Also here, they liked Vladimir Putin more than Donald Trump.
Denmark: Only 4% of danes wanted Trump as president. Our foreign minister (at least then) also stated that Trump would make relations between Denmark and USA harder. Also, danes rank Trump as a bigger threat to humanity and the earth than climate change. They say that they think a war with North Korea is more likely under Trumps leadership, and they think that he has damaged the worlds initiatives against global warming.
Of course some like him, but the truth is that majority dont.
Majority in sweden are brainwashed by the media here. I am a swede and I know how our madia portrais things about the US.
Apperantly Obama NEVER did anything wrong. Peace price while he killed people
As a Scandinavian person, I can confirm: We do indeed despise Trump!
wrong!!!
Wrong
In the beginning when he says Joel is a stealth foreigner, does he say the word "foreigner"? Cause it really sounds like "ferner" and I think that's what Joel heard too. Is that even a word or is it just "foreigner" pronounced weirdly? Cause I activated the subtitles and they say ferner too, but I have never heard that word.
Stephen is from the South 🤷🏼♀️
He is right.. i love this guy.. i love swedish people.. they are nice than norwegians. And he is right we scandi people love the truth.. its a thing that is of most importance
Love that. Yes. Indeed, we do have a relationship with truth, and that is why we hate him.
I got the altered carbon book. It's fantastic. I hope the series comes close
LowStuff cool
Is there really the perception that some western european countries like Trump?
Not in reality. But in Trump's mind on the other hand, everybody loves him.
Im pretty sure Trump supporters or Americans for that matter don't really care whether European countries "like" Trump as long as he benefits America. What is this high school?
yes. because we actually do. Give me Trumps immigration policy anyday!!
JJ p
I agree with that lmao
They probably just don't know better. Poor guys :/
+theassheep Americans or Trump supporters don't know any better? If that's what you meant I think they would have a better idea of how hes doing for the country than Europeans or any other country for that matter.
Altered Carbon was one of the best series Netflix ever put out. Can't wait till the next season
