22 juli var ingen tilfeldig katastrofe. Den bygget på holdninger, var begrunnet og målrettet.

"Høyreekstremistisk terror utføres ofte av ensomme ulver, men de tilhører en flokk."

Right-wing extremist terror is often done by lone wolves, but they are part of a pack.

Never forget that the terrorist who shot and killed 77 people (mostly teenagers) on the 22nd of July 2011, in Oslo and on Utøya, was a white, cis male, ethnic Norwegian.

Terror has nothing to to with ethnisity.

Fighting terror has nothing to do with ethnisity.

Humanity has everything to do with being a decent human being.

Spread love, not hate.

Netflix recently released the movie 22. July, directed by Paul Greengrass. The movie tells the story of the terror attacks in Oslo and on Utøya in Norway 22. July 2011, and the trial and recovery of the victims afterwards. It’s received high praise internationally, but in Norway the reviews are not as positive. Several survivors of the attacks have come forward to criticize the movie and the possible misconceptions it might lead to in an international audience.

While I personally don’t think it’s a bad film, it’s definitely not an accurate representation of the events. If you want to watch a movie about the attacks, I suggest watching Utøya 22. Juli, a Norwegian film shot in one take covering the entire one-and-a-half hour of the actual attacks (the general consensus in Norway seems to be that it’s superior to the Netflix adaptation). If you do see the Netflix movie, I hope you’ll take time to research the actual story and get a better picture of the events and the repercussions.

Tl;dr When watching Netflix’s 22 July, be aware that it doesn’t depict the actual events correctly, and please be critical of how it depicts different aspects of the case.

#22 july #netflix 22 july #22. juli #i’m sorry most of the articles are in norwegian!! there really hasn’t been a lot of reflection on it in english/american media #my problem with the movie is that it fails to discuss some of the most important things about the attacks #it also gives the attacker a legitimacy he shouldn’t have #but this post is more about awareness and less about my personal opinions

En varm tanke til de overlevne, de etterlatte og til de falne, alle ofre etter 22. juli 2011.

Husk hva hat kan ødelegge, og hva medmenneskelighet kan skape.
