In the fight against racism, NRK has chosen to give space to the Moroccan Javad El Bakali, who on a daily basis engages in crude stereotyping and discrimination against ethnic Norwegians. This is the drop that makes the cup overflow for many Norwegians, and we shall not put up with it any longer.

While Norwegian media completely ignore NTNU professor Bassam Hussain’s statement that “7 October is beautiful”, they continue to exploit Hårek Hansen’s comment that Pakistanis are “minus variants” to the utmost.

NRK, which never misses an opportunity to portray how racist the majority population is, has spoken with residents of minority background who hit back after Hansen’s comment.

The state broadcaster has met four people, three with Pakistani background and the comedian Javad El Bakali from Morocco. He is known from “utlending.memes”, the book “Dette er nordmenn” and NRK’s Humoretaten, and has altogether more than half a million followers on Instagram and TikTok.

Alcoholic football coach on the east side

El Bakali and all media that praise his success claim that he makes fun of all people, including immigrants and ethnic Norwegians. In reality, the bulk of his posts are full of racist memes and videos about Norwegians.

The comedian has previously said that we ought to be able to make fun of everything, and it is clear that he has chosen us as his favourite target. No one is spared. The elderly, old people, the disabled, women, the rich and rural people.

His main theme is evidently what he sees as racist ethnic Norwegians. Here is his view of an FrP woman from the north.

We Norwegians can laugh at ourselves and make fun of our peculiarities. But we are tired of those who are allowed constantly to denigrate us, in ways that would never have been accepted if the person were black or brown.

El Bakali’s favourite target is white Norwegian men, especially those over 40, the alcoholic racist and the furious FrP voter. Starter packs are his favourite.

In a podcast on Lingo, he says that it is such a summary of a personality type. – Whether it is a guy, a property shark, or an alcoholic football coach or a Pole …

Imagine if a Norwegian comedian made a similar “starter pack” about Pakistani or Moroccan men. It would without doubt mean the end of his career.

In the podcast “Jungeltelegraf”, El Bakali claims that he makes fun of absolutely all minorities: Moroccans, Pakistanis, Albanians, Somalis, Iraqis. But those who submit complaints and react strongly are always angry white men around 45 years of age and older.

When he jokes that “they have it a little too good”, they simply lose it. He almost never receives hate from foreigners, and that means he is doing his job right, he says.

El Bakali evidently does not understand that the reason foreigners do not particularly react is because they get off lightly. Especially his own. But sometimes he takes on other ethnicities.

Why the Balkans? It would have been more apt and realistic if it had been a typical evening in the new Europe. But that would have put him and his own people in the spotlight, and we cannot have that.

State-financed victim cultivation

The comedian Javad El Bakali is simply astonished when he hears such statements, writes NRK. He says:

To say that they should not have children, and to refer to people as ‘inferior variants’, is appalling and completely insane. To refer to Pakistanis who have been here for many years and who have helped build the country as less valuable people is of course completely idiotic.

El Bakali tells NRK that it is not pleasant to see someone who is a member of one of the country’s largest parties speak in such a manner. He does not buy Hansen’s blaming of alcohol.

Of course he does not. So what is his excuse when he daily spews out hatred against ethnic Norwegians while sober?

As in this repulsive video. Again he targets our men, instead of making videos about how Muslim men treat their women.

@utlending.memesOne year since people went completely ballistic over this one♬ original lyd – Javad aka Utlending.memes

I have a brother who is married to a Thai woman. He is a nurse, hard-working and a kind man. That is how I see most Norwegian men.

That is why it sits deeply in me when a hateful Moroccan immigrant receives thousands of likes and applause for spreading such ugly and hateful portrayals of our men.

MENA comedians are praised by the Left

El Bakali is not the only “comedian” from a MENA country who is allowed to stand on stage and denigrate us Norwegians. They are favoured by the Left. This is yet another strange phenomenon that we also see in the United States. New fellow countrymen who denigrate the country and the people are praised. It can only be explained by hatred of one’s own country and fellow citizens.

In an interview with Dagsavisen in 2022, in connection with the launch of the book “Dette er nordmenn”, he says:

– I believe it should be permitted to mess about with everything. If someone is really hurt, the joke is not good enough. It is about how you package things. One cannot just throw out things that are merely sour and angry. Who can be bothered with sour people over time? I certainly cannot, El Bakali told the newspaper.

So in his world Hansen’s comment ought to be fine, should it not? Of course not. In this country we have one law of humour for Mohammed and one for Hårek.

In the Lingo podcast, El Bakali is unable to answer what Norwegian values are to him. The only value he has taken with him over the years is not to boast about himself. After he became an adult, he discovered that Norwegians are by no means what he was taught to believe as a child:

When I was a kid, I was told that we ski, we eat Kvikk Lunsj, and that we like clementines, not oranges. That sort of thing. Things I have not seen much of since then. What I see when I look at Norwegians is mainly sour people. I just feel that there is such a wide range among us.

At least he stands by what he thinks of us. Here is yet another example of how he portrays us.

The podcast is for people who are learning Norwegian, who do not live in Norway or who have lived here for a short time and are still trying to understand the culture. The host asks him what is the most important thing one needs to know about Norwegian culture? Javad answers:

The most important thing you need to know about Norwegian culture is that, if I am to be completely honest, it is that no one has any reason to speak to you unless you give them a reason to do so.

We shall not put up with it

In the headline I wrote that El Bakali “despises” Norwegians. Those are strong words. But I have gone thoroughly through his TikTok and Instagram accounts, and there is no doubt that he has a deep contempt for a large part of the Norwegian population.

It is one thing to make fun of the stereotypical Norwegian, but El Bakali’s portrayal of all of us is simply hateful and racist. But a Moroccan cannot be racist, they will tell us. Do you not know that only white people can be racists?

Yet another of the world’s greatest lies.

Yes, they can, and El Bakali is an excellent example. Incidentally, there are 45 million Moroccans in the world and around 250 million Pakistanis. So who is really the minority in this story?

That NRK allows El Bakali to lecture us about racism tells us how back-to-front present-day Norway has become. For my part, I will not remain silent about this. They have crossed a red line with the Hårek Hansen and Bassam Hussain case, and we must fight back.

I have sent the following questions to El Bakali and NRK.

Questions for Javad El Bakali

You claim to make fun of everyone equally, Norwegians as well as immigrants. A review of your social media accounts, however, shows that your main target is ethnic Norwegians, who are portrayed as racist, angry, alcoholic, ugly and low-status. Do you understand that many Norwegians experience this as hateful stereotypes rather than harmless humour?

In interviews you have described Norwegians as “sour people” and said that we have almost no values worth mentioning. You have also said that Somalis and Pakistanis feel more Norwegian to you than ethnic Norwegians. Is this still how you view the Norwegian people? Do you understand that many ethnic Norwegians experience this as a lack of respect for our country?

If a Norwegian comedian made hundreds of memes and videos in which he portrayed Pakistanis or Moroccans as ugly, low-status, criminal or racists, would you then regard it as acceptable humour?

In the NRK case, you called Hårek Hansen’s statements “appalling”, “completely insane” and “completely idiotic”. In 2022 you told Dagsavisen that it should be permitted to mess about with everything. Yet you show Hansen no understanding, not even that he was drunk, while you yourself daily attack Norwegians with negative stereotypes, entirely sober. Do you see a double standard here?

Questions for NRK

Why did NRK choose to give Javad El Bakali a prominent platform to condemn Hårek Hansen’s statements, while he himself daily engages in systematic negative and discriminatory stereotyping of ethnic Norwegians?

NRK places great emphasis on diversity and the fight against prejudice. Why is it acceptable on the state broadcaster for a comedian of minority background to generalise negatively about Norwegians, while the same thing in the opposite direction would be called racism?

Here is El Bakali’s degrading message to Hårek Hansen. Reprehensible.
