I suspect there must have been some kind of coup in the Nobel leadership. They also invited Swedens far right party leader despite Banning him for over a decade. That on its own hands the far right in Sweden such an optical win that I can only assume it is malicious. As a Swede I am so fucking disappointed in them.
Edit: coup, not cue. I don't write words good.
Assuming you meant "coup" and not "cue." Otherwise, I wouldn't be at all surprised. Several of the people involved in the Nobel committee seem pretty right-wing.
So more batshit-rightwingers-take-over-things-and-break-them?
SAD!
Dude, it's your second language. You write better than a lot of native speakers. Don't beat yourself up over it.
They declined though and said that no one should attend
