A Pop Band Tricked Americans Into Being Nazis

Do you remember Ace of Base? I should tell you something: Ace of Base was probably a bunch of Nazis.

This is a very interesting article about the 90s musical pop group "Ace of Base".

Actually, that they have ties to the neo-Nazi movement isn't in dispute, or at all a secret. A few years ago, Vice music editor Ben Shapiro wrote an article that revealed that Ace of Base founder Ulf Ekberg was once in a Nazi punk band called Commit Suiside.

Yah, I read 'Cracked Magazine' for the articles.

    Some unintentionally 👀 moments from a random music subreddit:

    You don’t really have to look further than the lyrics he’s written. “I Pray” and “Perfect World” are good examples.

    After the big Thailand tsunami he got a truck and supplies and went there to help in any way he could. He talked about digging through debris and helping helping recover bodies. He started a relief fund, too.

    He’s good friends with the Clintons (Chelsea was a big fan).

    He’s quoted as saying: “I think Canada sets an example for other countries. It’s open and tolerant”.

    He’s a supporter of LGBT rights, and along with AOB performed at multiple gay pride events.

    He’s been involved in the UN and the G8/G7 summit. He’s a strong advocate for stopping climate change, pollution, etc.
