Majority of people are either pardo (mixed white/black/indigenous) or white indigenous population is less than 1%). First mixed race president was in 1909.
80ish% European descent 16% indigenous
Also it’s worth pointing out that both countries speak European languages and are majority Catholic.

Both governed by European settlers rather than the indigenous population.

Israel is a colonist entity just like the USA, Canada, Australia, new Zealand, Argentina, Brazil, etc etc. When the original Israelites arrived there thousands of years ago they colonised it and drove out whoever was there first, they were then driven out by the Arabs who were driven out by the Ottomans who were driven out by the British, who ceded it to the Arabs and Jews who will likely both get invaded by the Turks to “restore peace”. It’s a cursed piece of land. But, you can’t remove it, because the Israelis have hidden a bunch of nukes all around the world as an insurance policy.

Probably. I was living in Bergen at the time, so it wouldn’t have been practical for me. I make British Christmas food anyway, which is a lot more heavily spiced than Norwegian Christmas food. So it works to just use baking margarine.

That was rough. It happened right before Christmas too. People were scalping butter on finn.no and supermarkets had to import butter from France.

Also I remember reading a newspaper account of a danish supermarket that actually ordered 1000 litres of milk by mistake. And everyone in Norway found it hilarious, because it happened after the sketch was aired.

Yes, to an extent, but I don’t think it has to do with grammar as much as pronunciation. Norwegian (bokmål) and danish are almost indistinguishable when written down, but spoken Danish is pronounced very weirdly (a lot of swallowed and mumbled consonants that causes it to sound like the speaker has gotten drunk on their way back from getting a root canal and is currently struggling to eat a hot potato). Despite Norwegian having a massive range of regional dialects, Norwegian kids learn to speak a lot quicker than danish kids. Largely because danish kids just don’t understand what they’re hearing for longer. The Danes have to subtitle their own TV programmes because they don’t really understand each other. It’s a fucking mess. Norwegian kids understand Swedish before danish kids understand danish.

I literally was going to say that exact thing. It’s why they had to ban kinder eggs. Everything from heavy grease to tide pods and small plastic toys looks edible to Americans.

Regrettably, for some of us, our own thoughts are the most terrible thing we can be with. Besides all the most terrible people I know have never been committed.

I don’t have paint on my mobile, believe it or not. And also as previously mentioned any visual art I produce looks like dog shit.

You get those places in Europe too, but you also get places that are queer friendly, serve food and craft beer, have a good punk oriented jukebox, and the barman will start pouring your drink when you walk through the door because they know what you’re going to order.

Yeah I know, but I’m completely talentless as an artist and wanted to make the meme anyway. I’m hardly going to commission an actual artist to draw it for me, am I?

According to random ai female beauty standards of the Levant 2000 years ago were based on signs of good health and ability to bare children. Big boobs and wide hips. Don’t know about JC though. He was probably a twink.
