teen witch posted:It’s egalitarianism in that everyone is treated like cogs in a machine and one standing up is getting slammed the gently caress down....equally Yeah pretty much. Also the parochialism, which often manifests as casual racism/xenophobia. eg stuff like this was just a normal part of Swedish pop culture only two decades ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTqgpQJkefo

Lead out in cuffs posted:Yeah pretty much. Jesus Murphy I’ve never heard of this and . Like I get it, this is out of genuine ignorance but it’s interesting that the English Wikipedia for Jonny Jakobsen mentions that there was controversy attached to his act but nothing in the Swedish one. That’s pretty telling. Also quote:Jakobsens skivbolag hittade senare på figuren Dr. MacDoo, som var Dr. Bombays kusin från Skottland. Principen var densamma, men singlar som till exempel Macahula Dance blev inte lika framgångsrika som Dr. Bombay-låtarna. I know prescribing one’s cultural norms on another culture is a mixed bag but ffs sake this is cringey independent of those factors my god.

Lead out in cuffs posted:Nah they're a parody of a very real phenomenon, whereby Scandinavians have an unconscious tendency towards egalitarianism. Like, the first class section on trains is almost nonexistent and barely an upgrade from the rest of the train. People get upset at someone correcting someone else because it seems like they're making themselves out to be smarter than the other person. It's very specific to that part of the world. So, like Chinese "Face" culture. snyde "lol, recognised social phenomena" aside, those are some gorgeous pictures. Thanks!

As someone from flensborg, I kind of like our danish neighbors. They're responsible for roughly half of my hometowns income, as they will invade the town every saturday and spend their ludicrously gigantic wages buying cheap poo poo and alcohol. Kind of like reverse-vikings when you think about it. Also pølser are cool, still to this day the best hot dog in my eyes.

They were way better than anything comparable you could get in the United States.
