Screenshots from the SAS ad. Left: ‘There is no such thing’ as truly Scandinavian. Right: Black migrant says “We are no better than out Viking ancestors.”
The basis of this ad campaign, which is the 3-minute film, is a kind of sequel to their last effort on behalf of what SAS called ‘The Arrivals’ (glorifying black and muslim rapefugees) which won a handful of Effie Awards, one of those self-absorbed industry honours that the marketing world gives to itself pretending that they are some Nobel-equivalent gong for global excellence.
The worst thing about this video was when they have a some black guy with a flat nose come on screen and say “OUR Viking ancestors were no better.” LOL!
Self-hating ‘Nothing is truly Scandinavian’ campaign for airline SAS doomed to crash after outcry at attack on national identity
The Nordic airline SAS needs to go back to the drawing board after it’s “Nothing is truly Scandinavian” advertising campaign crash-landed and abandoning the naïve, insulting premise that national identities do not exist would be the perfect starting point.
What became immediately obvious from the barrage of criticism the ill-conceived idea attracted was that people were not happy with being told they should be ridden with guilt for the numerous acts of what the woke brigade frowningly call “cultural appropriation” that they previously had mistakenly associated as the building blocks of their very own national identity.
Among the more ridiculous claims, and using a rhetorical device of the ill-informed, the campaign suggests that “rumour has it“ that world famous Swedish meatballs are actually Turkish.
Why make this stuff up? Why try to shame a nation into believing that a popular dish is one they have stolen from somewhere else? It’s the cheapest, nastiest,
most unpatriotic campaign imaginable.
And the fact that this was all the idea of &Co, an oh-so-self-aware Copenhagen-based agency shows the extent of self-loathing and guilt that exist in the liberal world of the creative class.
Perhaps their cack-handed attempt to declare “What is truly Scandinavian? Absolutely nothing” should have been run past their neighbors, Denmark and Sweden before they started disowning national treasures like sticky pastries, meatballs and parental leave.
Because the ill-judged idea showed all the finesse of The Muppets’ Swedish chef at work on one of his more chaotic recipes.
Outside of the advertising world bubble people object to having their entire nationality sliced, diced and served up as simply the sum of various parts because an agency with a lucrative airline contract has fallen for the ideas that the world is one big happy melting pot, patriotism is the thin-edge of the nationalist wedge, and identifying specific traits as belonging to only certain kinds of people is culturally disrespectful.
What utter nonsense. As the late Carl Sagan opined: “It pays to keep an open mind, but not so open your brains fall out”.
Because that is what has happened here.
The basis of campaign, which is the 3-minute film, is a kind of sequel to their last effort on behalf of what SAS called ‘The Arrivals,’ which won a handful of Effie Awards, one of those self-absorbed industry honours that the marketing world gives to itself pretending that they are some Nobel-equivalent gong for global excellence.
The agency obviously decided it was onto something and storyboarded the new idea up into this mess which SAS went along with.
While &Co other clients have included the European Parliament, another staunch advocate of cultural homogenisation, the agency has represented many others that could really only be described as “Scandinavian” — finance giant Danske Bank, logistics beast Maersk, and even the funky furniture outfit BoConcept.
For these businesses, being Scandinavian is a central part of who they are and how they sell themselves to their customers. To suggest that “nothing is truly Scandinavian” is to undermine their whole business story at the expense of a proud national identity.
As one user pointed out on Twitter, what if the word “Scandinavian” was traded for “Mexican” as part of an ad campaign. It would have got no further than Powerpoint.
While years of Scandi multiculturalism have not entirely worked, it has not been popular, up until now, to even question social cohesion.
It’s not, as some social media extremists are suggesting, further evidence of white culture being under attack, it’s actually part of a left-right identity struggle that has been bubbling along for some time.
There is pushback from the people at the ballot box. The rise of the Swedish Democrats, the Danish Peoples’ Party and the Progress Party in Norway are symptomatic of the feeling that liberals won’t acknowledge the sense of unity, the idea of family and the spirit of history that comes from a strong national identity.
To them, those strengths are seen as exclusive and a barrier to entry for outsiders, when we should all be self-loathing, guilt-ridden citizens of everywhere attoning for years of western hegemony.
But people are just not like that and it’s naive to believe that these identities do not exist in a very real way. It was wrongly thought by some hipster ad agency that the Scandinavians would agree.
Well, it seems this time they got it wrong. Badly wrong. But at least the agency has a good title for its next YouTube film: “The Grovel.”

…….So if Putin is a Jew and in bed with the Jews, and a puppet of the Jews, why does RT, which HE created, run such articles against white self-hatred, hmmm?
Why does he promote Christianity, which Jews hate? ..and Orthodox Christianity, which rejects the Jews as Christ-killers?
Why does he ban Gay-Pride parades, which Jews love?
Why does he defend Syria, which is at war with Israel and is bombed constantly by it?
Why does he resist American domination, which is the main vector of Jewish world control?
Why did he show my website and my article blasting the Jews for 13 seconds on the Russian evening news on September 11, 2016?

Thanks for this.
Well, it is excellent PR. All successful democratic politicians flatter their audience with how great they (ahem, “our great nation”) is. 😉
As for the black soldier, well, that black Mass. regiment did fight to the death.
My anger is directed at Jews and white traitors. The blacks never asked to come here. They were brought by force.
Trump needs the blacks to either vote for him or stay home and not vote Demoncrat. If the homo Buttigieg gets the Dem nomination, they just might do that.
Good points about Putin, and yes, that commercial was a laughable and embarrassing disgrace that should rightfully ruin that [Scandinavian] airline company.
Quick question:
Are you familiar with Thomas Dalton? He put out a new English translation of Mein Kampf and I read some, and found it much improved over the previous translation I read.
Plus he scoured the 75,000-some pages of Goebbels diaries and put out a book of all the parts of him writing about the Jews. (They haven’t banned this one yet, I believe, since his demonization has been more cemented than Hitler’s and his words won’t be as influential.)
Some of Dalton’s other books were just banned from Amazon, including one that collected all of Hitler’s comments on the Jews.
This is an article about the removal of these titles at thejc.com:
htps://www.thejc.com/news/uk-news/amazon-condemned-for-selling-books-that-say-jews-play-exceptionally-active-role-in-war-1.496420
Thanks for this.
Gee, why didn’t the jews like this book? 😉
As for Dalton, and Mein Kampf itself, whether translated well or in the usual, horribly wooden style …. and, well, everything about Hitler, I find it painful, boring and dissatisfying.
One, I only wrote MK because I was locked up at Landsberg and could not organize people and give speeches. 😉
I hated writing then, and I do now, too, for I am a people person. Let nerds scribble all day long — the masses are never moved by books! What stirs them is
eloquent speeches, sharp uniforms, huge rallies, and fiery emotions, the work of flesh-and-blood people possessed by passion, charisma, heroism and conviction.
And unless we get the masses, we will die out as the Baby Boomers age and disappear, or be suppressed, and very soon.
Andrew Anglin may have an impressive 200,000 readers a day — readers, not doers — but this is just an infinitesimal fraction of the 180 million whites in this country!
The Jews are pushing us via Antifa and rigorous venue-banning (I have lots of personal experience with this) right off the streets and out of the meeting rooms, and instead onto the Internet, but then, via ever tightening censorship and massive deplatforming, the Khazars are shutting us down THERE TOO, in our last viable niche!
In the end, it looks like a key passage from the T.S. Eliot poem, “The Hollow Men” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hollow_Men):
The other thing is my Russian-policy mistake. Mein Kampf is full of the delusional idea that Germany needs to conquer and resettle Russia with Germans. This was catastrophically wrong, Russia being a great white nation and our blood relative, and proved to be both morally and militarily a cardinal sin.
…..Hitler’s moral and strategic disaster in Russia: the goal was to seize European Russia for Germany, not just destroy bolshevism
https://johndenugent.com/hitler-germany/hitlers-great-mistake-in-russia/
As this article shows, the author who advocated more Lebensraum (” living space”) for Germany, Hans Grimm, did NOT want Hitler to outrageously expel the Russians from their own soil and resettle it with Germans. (So why be surprised if they fought like lions to prevent this, and why wax moralistic when they raped and killed so many Germans, since Hitler’s goal was to annihilate or enslave the entire Russian nation?)
What Hans Grimm wanted was for Germany to have and develop (or, after the Versailles Treaty, get back) its overseas colonies, just as England was settling and building up Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.

Now THAT was doable — taking land from Stone-Age African negroes, but not from gigantic, advanced, white Russia!
This video is quite interesting. As I have blogged, the founder of the quite large Hare Krishna movement was a closet antisemite, as was the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (of Beatles fame), as the oral remarks of both famous 1960s gurus reveal, and this applies to all spiritually elevated thinkers(and also, on quite another topic, all the serious UFO researchers).
The creator of the video, a white Irishman, reveres Prabhupada, obviously, as an avatar of God (a human who was sent down by God to incarnate here for a divine mission), and he believes the Jews poisoned this saint and then took over his Hare Krishna movement.
Note here the part about what Hitler confessed to Hans Grimm.

Before the Hitler life, I was a field marshal in Austria, though born in Ireland to the Norman-Irish aristocracy, Laval Count Nugent. This explains many things, including my Austrian birth as Hitler and also the tremendous military acumen of the lowly “Corporal” Hitler!
But it was all secular. I was a great general, and later a great student of psychology.
But so was Alexander the Great, and his huge empire fell apart as soon as he died. My vast Reich was crushed during my lifetime.
In this life, I am not interested in who I was, only in my mistakes.
I stood here in 1975 and felt only revulsion, and asked God’s forgiveness that we blew a real chance at victory. We wanted to do to the Russians what the Israelis have done to the Palestinians: invade, crush, enslave, massacre or expel them from their own land.
And from 1945-54 I thought about all this. Those who slander me today as “thinking I was Hitler,” because their own minds are egoic, have no idea how many times I have cried bitterly over his one stubborn, gigantic sin — against Russia.
And being egoists themselves, and usually atheists, these WN slanderers have no concept how I have resolved, in this life, with only one chance left, to attack the real enemy, which is not the turdlike and ridiculous Jews, but instead our own ego-infected mind.
We will be invincible this time by first conquering ourselves.
For me, personally, the daily struggle is to forgive and love myself, and thank a forgiving Providence for using me once again, and sending me truly wonderful supporters to my corner of the ring to help me “find it” for the decisive round — against a fighter who lowers his guard to the side, thinking we are beaten and he has already won. 🙂
“The Fighter” was an excellent movie, getting a 91% approval on “Rotten Tomatoes,” and was based on a true story. It also “took me back” to my own proud New England roots. 🙂 (The side hit should make you think….. How will I hit the Jews this time from the side?)
And the thing about humility is this…. It is even greater when found in the great.
Winston Churchill, a fiend, yes, but resolute, bright and very funny, once said of British prime minister Stanley Baldwin:
It is not hard to be humble when you have no accomplishments. 😉
When you do, and still can eat humble pie, live at the bottom with the rest of humanity, and recognize your errors, that is greatness.
A great leader can self-correct, or accept correction without incident, as soon as the signs appear that the decision was wrong. In a Führerstaat, in the rule by one leader with vast authority so as to end the chaos — and indirect jewish rule — of so-called “democracy,” this is absolutely vital.
In the end, the great Plato was so right.
The ruler simply MUST must be a philosopher as well, a lover of truth and wisdom, including the truth that his wrong decisions must be admitted, and quickly corrected without any egoic resistance whatsoever.
“I was wrong. I admit it, my friends. Thank you for correcting me. Let’s make changes X, Y and Z, and do it right now.”
It is dangerous to concentrate power in any one man’s hands unless he has absolute humility!
.
The gods impelled me to take an entire one-semester course on this great work by Plato at Georgetown.

And it dealt with an issue which is central to fascism: one-man rule is wonderfully efficient, and it turned Italy, Germany and Spain around.
The needless partisan squabbles of “democracy,” really demagogocracy, which we see now fully on display between Trump and the Demoncrats, with sickening egotism and disgraceful rudeness on all sides, is banished.
In fascism, things finally get done!
But it is catastrophic if that one-man-ruler, that autocrat, makes a colossal error!
And this issue must be addressed, for the Anglo-Saxon peoples have taken to heart the great dictum of Lord Acton (and, heh-heh, fate had me live in Littleton, Massachusetts, right next to Acton, Mass.) :
But a man free of ego will not be “corrupted.” His motives won’t change.
And he will correct any mistake that endangers his life’s work, and the happiness and safety of the millions of good souls — the little ones and the great ones — who all love him, look up to their leader, believe loyally in his words, and entrust him with their lives, and those of their precious children!

As I have written, the grand system which Hitler foresaw for the Reich — after a German victory and his retirement to Linz to devote himself to the fine arts — was that of the famous Century of the Good Emperors, back in the time of Ancient Rome, a term which British historian Edward Gibbon proposed in his mostly excellent work (except for its Christian-bashing!):
Each emperor, for decades, was searching among the gifted young leaders for his imperial successor, then training him in ever vaster responsibilities.
Trajan, Hadrian, Antoninus Pius and Marcus Aurelius provided in this way — by selecting and training their young successor, a man the Roman Senate ratified after years of seeing him in action — one hundred years of wonderful rule to Rome.
I saw this statue every day I visited, in PROVIDENCE (my favorite word as Hitler for God) the beautiful Angell Street of my ancestor Thomas Angell — the philosopher-emperor Marcus Aurelius:
….What is happiness?
When the people can go about their vital business — working at productive jobs for the nation, growing our food, fixing our roofs, building houses, and raising good kids — while knowing that above them rules a loving, effective and humble man, chosen for his ability — and the highest level of spirituality.
This is fascism 2.0; this is national socialism 2.0, and this alone can win.
Deus lo vult! said the Crusaders as they smashed the Muslims. “God wills it” – and suffering man below needs it! We need work and cooperation, not constant infighting!
I thank every man and woman who understands this message.
I’m not gone. Reincarnation is real for us all, and why would I, of all people, “take a powder” and be missing in action when our race is in its decisive hour of life or death?

.
And spirituality means this, a deep emotional hatred of all that is evil.
The sinner we might forgive, but never his sin. The cowardice, the treason, the murder.
This French girl singing about her hate-core (using the English white-nationalist word for our rage) is amazing, and what can inspire a man to valorous deeds more than such an appeal from a noble white woman, who needs, wants and expects her menfolk to defend her dignity, and her future children?
Does her voice not pierce to your very heart as a man? (Translation follows)
