Thank you for correcting me, sorry I mixed up distinct peoples.
I don’t know much about the differences between Norway and Denmark. Is there hope that this would actually be a good move and Norway would be chill? For my frame of reference: I’ve seen Lillehammer. That’s all I know.
I think this is mostly political grandstanding and people in abandonned communities trying to get the central government to notice them. However there is a decent chance that if the Orkneys somehow get absorbed into Norway proper, that they will be treated decently, since Norway doesn't really have the same colonial past that Denmark does, and was themselves pretty much considered a ressource colony up until their independence.

I’m like 80% sure they fought a war over that distinction at some point.
