WTF do Swedish elites know about the situation on the ground in Africa?

I write this as a member of the American elite who lives aboard a sailboat in the Bahamas, and has an African girlfriend. Ask her what it is like in Nigeria, or Ghana, the lands of her father and mother. Get back to me when you have informed and meaningful insight into the situations there.

WTF do you know about Swedish elites?

Hoover

WTF do they know of England, who only England know? (Kipling).

The great thing about this blog is that its eclecticism will eventually allow anyone to display authoritative knowledge of their niche topic, no matter how recondite.

Having said that, I've yet to see a post about age heaping on Roman tombstones between 95BC and 130AD. When will I get my opportunity to post angrily about this?

A true expert would be able to work age heaping into any topic. Since you've managed to work it into a story about Swedish cakes, I give you a B+ and regard you
as the fourth best poster to MR.

Would highlighting that ignorance not have been the point of the ... um, installation? It seems to have sparked a good deal of controversy.

Oh, and this.

Why can't this just be art? Why does it have to be political?

It is clearly intended to make a political point.

Even as art it is extremely bad art.

Why can't swastikas be enjoyed as neat-looking graphical symbols?

dead serious

They are in India.

Don't they have enough to deal with without inflicting bad food on them?
