Is this the thread where we share how it was Hetalia that taught us everything we should've known after secondary school?

Like the flags and capitals of Europe.

This isn't Hetalia, it's Scandanavia and the World

Oh wow, now there's a fandom I didn't expect to see in F!S.

(Also my roommate is hosting an Abba singalong right now, so this is incredibly apropos. Good timing, OP!)

There've been a few SATW secrets. Especially a few years ago when it was more popular (probably around the same time Hetalia was).

Ah, that was probably when I wasn't here. Regardless, cool to see it around again, even though I never read it! (I preferred the one about the cute tentacle monster girl.)

I think a cute thing to remember it by is the interpretation of the Icelandic flag:

Red lava runs through white snow into the blue sea.

(Then the Norwegian flag is just "the other one" lol.)

I am offended! The Norwegian flag is clearly the best flag, we are Red, White and Blue!

Eh, to each their own.

(Sorry. I just really, really hated that "artist" for a while. Now I'm just glad that I don't go to deviantart all that often anymore so I don't have to see her shit.)

(Anonymous) 2015-05-04 09:19 am (UTC)(link)
She has her own website now, so I don't think she posts on Deviantart that much.

Did you hate her mostly because her stuff was always on the front page and therefore hard to avoid, or did you have some other reason?

I actually thought her SatW was mildly amusing at first but it really was annoying the way she kept going on and on about how Hetalia did all the steretoypes wrong but at the same time, she equally bad stereotypes (and even more offensive subject matter).
Then I saw all her other work and the way she kept fetishising POC and LGBT people and - worst of all - rape and sexual assault was downright creepy. Not to mention that whole episode with her Niels series where she kept showing that cult leader character as this lolsorandom quirky guy, then was whining nobody took the fact the he was actually a creepy serial rapist and child molester seriously and then drew a picture of that character molesting his daughter (who was conceived when he rapes her mother) to make a point (then proceeded to continue drawing the same guy as this cutesy random guy).

Then there's the way she does absolutely no proper research and just makes shit up about the mythological themes she gets her hands on and then pretends that the bullshit she makes up is the actual genuine myth and people should just believe her for some reason. (I have nothing against creative license when it comes to these things but she pretends she is right and spreads false information - and not only when it comes to mythology, either).

She is also generally blatantly racist and explains it away with a "lol, we Scandinavian people are all a little racist, no biggie!".

I could go on but I don't want to waste more time on her.

I was going to say I don't have that issue, but I love SATW, and I probably do that unconsciously now anyway.
