    The most reactionary Norwegians I’ve ever had the displeasure to meet loved to talk about “harmful American foreign influences” — that was very specifically the word they used, amerikansk. Now I found it very strange that these chuds got all their rhetoric from rich Seppos, that they wouldn’t so much as acknowledge the irony of that; moreover I was disturbed by how I suddenly stopped being “the American in the room” when these people started talking about “American foreign influences”, almost like they were trying to treat me as a local as a sort of “carrot on a stick” to lure me towards their reactionism.

    It wasn’t until much later that I realized that when the Norwegian chuds talk about “harmful American foreign influences”, and they believe in the ZOG conspiracy theory, that “American” is really just a nicer way to say “Jewish”. So that was what they were doing: they spoke of “harmful American foreign influences” because they knew that people like me would enthusiastically nod to the general statement that there is such a thing as American foreign influence, and that this influence is broadly harmful; but once you get past that general statement, they were literally just doing a find-and-replace for conspiracy theories about a Jewish cabal — at first very subtly, but more obviously as they went on.
