AN ANTI-IMMIGRANT GROUP IN NORWAY
LEFT SOME INTERESTING COMMENTS ON A PHOTO THAT FEATURED WHAT
APPEARED TO BE WOMEN SITTING AT A BUS.
THIS GROUP IS KNOWN AS
FATHERLAND FIRST.
THEY ARE KNOWN TO BE ANTI-IMMIGRANT.
>>THAT SOUNDS GREAT.
>>THEY HAVE AN INCREASE OF IMMIGRANTS COMING INTO THEIR
COUNTRY AS A RESULT OF SOME OF THE UNSETTLING THINGS HAPPENING
IN THE MIDDLE EAST, SO OF COURSE NATURALLY YOU WILL HAVE SOME
PEOPLE THAT ARE NOT HAPPY.
THESE INDIVIDUALS REPRESENT THAT
GROUP.
SOMEONE DECIDED TO PLAY A PRANK AND POSTED THIS PICTURE
ONTO THE FACEBOOK PAGE.
IF YOU QUICKLY GLANCE, I THINK MAYBE
YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO SEE A GROUP OF WOMEN SITTING ON A BUS
WEARING BURQAS.
IF YOU LOOK HALF A SECOND LONGER YOU WILL SEE THAT THEY ARE
SEATS.
>>OH, I THOUGHT THEY PUT DUMMIES IN PLACE.
>> SOMEONE WHO HAS ACCESS TO THE GROUP DECIDED TO POST THE
PICTURE AND SAID, "WHAT DO PEOPLE THINK OF THIS?"
THE
RESPONSE WAS EXPECTED.
BY THE WAY NORWAY IS CONSIDERING
LEGISLATION THAT WOULD BAN HEADDRESSES LIKE THE BURQA.
>> TO BE FAIR THEY COULD BE GHOSTS AND GOES COULD BE
FRIENDLY LIKE YOU, THE FRIENDLY GHOST CASPER.
OR IT COULD BE A
MALICIOUS GOES, A TERRORIST GHOST.
>>THIS PRANKSTER BASICALLY SAID THIS.
>> I DON'T LIKE BURQAS, BUT THAT IS
MY OPINION.
WHEN I SEE A
WOMAN IN A BURQA I WISH THAT SHE WOULD GET LIBERATED.
AND I WANT
TO HELP FREE HER.
BUT I DON'T WANT TO DO THAT BY HATING HER.
I
WANT TO DO THAT BY TRYING TO GET OUR MESSAGE OUT MORE THAT THERE
IS A CULTURE THAT WORKS BETTER.
BEING FREE IS A BETTER WAY TO
GO.
I MAKE THAT CASE AGAINST ALL RELIGIONS.
YOU DO WHATEVER YOU
WANT, LEAVE US ALONE.
BY THE WAY IF YOU ARE NOT WATCHING PORN I
WOULD LIKE TO LIBERATE YOU AS WELL.
YOU ARE NEEDLESSLY
OPPRESSING YOURSELF WITH THESE ANCIENT RIDICULOUS CULTURES THAT
ARE OUTDATED.
RETURNING YOUR FURY AGAINST THEM MAKES NO
SENSE.
>> I THINK TURNING YOUR FURY AGAINST THEM IS BASICALLY A
SYMPTOM OF A COMMON PROBLEM I AM SEEING.
PEOPLE REACT TO THINGS
THAT THEY FIND UNUSUAL OR SCARY WITHOUT STOPPING TO THINK ABOUT
IT.
FOR INSTANCE, THIS PHOTO, PEOPLE WANTED TO REACT ñ BUT
TAKE A SECOND TO PROCESS IT.
I GOT IT, I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND
THAT IF YOU ARE LIVING IN A COUNTRY WHERE SEEING WOMEN WERE
WEARING BURQAS IS UNUSUAL IT'S GOING TO BE SUPER UNSETTLING TO
NOTICE THAT THERE ARE WOMEN WEARING BURQAS ALL AROUND YOU.
I
DON'T WANT TO BE HARSH AGAINST THEM BECAUSE I THINK ANY NORMAL
HUMAN BEING WILL FEEL THE SAME WAY, BUT GIVE YOURSELF A SECOND
TO PROCESS IT AND THINK ABOUT WHY IT IS YOU FEEL THAT WAY. IS
THAT PERSON REALLY A THREAT?
EVEN OUTSIDE OF ISSUES
PERTAINING TO REFUGEES AND MUSLIMS, I AM GUILTY OF THIS AS
WELL.
SOMETIMES I REACT TOO QUICKLY.
AND THAT IS OKAY.
>>THIS PRANK GIVES YOU A RORSCHACH TEST ONTO YOUR
PERCEPTIONS.
PEOPLE THAT DON'T SEE ANY PROBLEMS SAW EMPTY
SEATS, PEOPLE THAT ARE AFRAID OF MUSLIMS SAW BURQAS,
AND I SAW DUMMIES.
I GOT TRIGGERED BY THE WORD RIGHT WING
AND I THOUGHT IT MUST
BE DUMMIES.
PEOPLE THAT ARE
EVANGELICAL COME OUT ñ IF YOU ARE A RIGHT-WING EVANGELICAL KID
AND YOU HAVE ALL THIS PROPAGANDA IN YOUR HEAD, TAKE A LOAD OFF,
MAYBE LITERALLY.
IT IS OKAY.
PART OF LIBERATING PEOPLE IS NOT HATING THEM.
>> ONE QUICK THING I WANT TO SAY ñ IT'S INTERESTING BECAUSE YOU
USUALLY BRING UP THE POINT THAT IT OPPRESSES THEM AND YOU WANT
TO LIBERATE THEM.
WE GET PUSHBACK WHEN WE MAKE THAT COMMENT FROM MUSLIM
WOMEN THAT LIVE IN FREE SOCIETIES AND THEY WANT TO
WEAR THE BURQA OR A HEADDRESS.
>>NO THEY DON'T.
>> I THOUGHT ABOUT IT IN MY OWN CONTEXT.
A COUPLE YEARS AGO
THERE WASN'T A PROGRESSIVE GUY THAT GOT ON ME BECAUSE I LIKE TO
WEAR HEELS.
HE SAID YOU BOWED TO THE PATRIARCHY, WHY ARE YOU
WEARING HEELS?
I SAID I REALLY LIKE WEARING HEELS.
YOU GUYS
NEVER SEE MY SHOES, I HAVE NO REASON TO WEAR HEELS.
BUT I WEAR
HEELS OFTEN AT WORK BECAUSE THEY MAKE ME FEEL POWERFUL.
THEY MAKE
ME FEEL TALLER, MAKE ME STAND STRAIGHTER AND I JUST LIKE IT.
I
LIKE WEARING FEMININE CLOTHES.
MAKES ME FEEL NICE AND
BEAUTIFUL.
IT WAS SUPER INSULTING TO ME TO HAVE THAT GUY
TELL ME THAT I HAVE BEEN BRAINWASHED BY THE PATRIARCHY
WHEN IN REALITY I AM DOING SOMETHING I ENJOY AND MAKES ME
FEEL GOOD.
I THINK THERE MIGHT BE MUSLIM WOMEN THAT FEEL THAT
WAY ABOUT WEARING BURQAS.
IT IS AN UNCOMFORTABLE ISSUE BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT
THEY ARE THINKING OR FEELING.
>> SO WHEN YOU SAID YOU GUYS DON'T SEE MY SHOES, 28% OF THE
MALE AUDIENCE WENT WHY NOT?
I WANT TO TALK MORE ABOUT THIS IN
THE POST GAME.
I THINK IT IS A REAL INTERESTING CONVERSATION
BUT A LONGER CONVERSATION.
LET'S DO THAT IN THE POST GAME.
TYTNETWORK.COM/JOIN.
I THINK PEOPLE GET BRAINWASHED INTO
DOING THINGS THEY DO AND THEY GENUINELY THINK THEY WANT TO DO
IT BUT WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
IS IT GENUINE?
