Just for a change of pace, here’s a video dedicated to Conservative Swede (who is probably already a member of the Committee to Elect Friedrich Nietzsche):

Yeah, that’s a good laugh.
Well, I guess philosophers in politics is almost as odd as philosophers in football. I cannot help but thinking of Monty Python’s The Philosophers’ Football Match.
I love the part when the Germans are arguing with the referee to have the goal overruled: Hegel is arguing that the reality is merely an a priori adjunct of non-naturalistic ethics, Kant via the categorical imperative is holding that ontologically it exists only in the imagination, and Marx is claiming it was offside.
This wonderfully nit-picky comment at Wikipedia adds to the humour:
“According to the available camera angles, unless some German defender(s) were inexplicably loitering around the corner flag(s), Marx was right and the Greek goal should have been ruled off-side.”
