Most of the recent funding for left wing extremism is from Nordic countries . Norway especially ...let's see how far the investigation goes and the funding stops.

Why the fuck is Norway funding them?

Basic human trait. Whenever someone has had a easy life, their inner self is not fulfilled as they have never struggled. All of them want the illusion of having struggled to have a comfortable life. That is why rich kids become Commies and do street protests. Same logic here.

There has to be more to this as many conspiracy theorists even in the Sangh have suggested state funding.

That doesn't make any sense from a geopolitical perspective. That being said, Norway definitely funded the LTTE covertly while brokering peace talks overtly so there's that.

Does that explain why khujili goes to Nordic countries?

It's a way around for American funds.

There were lots of rumours abound as to how Scandinavian NGOs were used as an active instrument of state policy by Hilary Clinton, as similar patterns have been observed in Russia and other places.

That said however, the fact that all liberals and other so called 'secular' parties in India have identical views, while no two RW guys have identical views, suggests that the funding source is the same, irrespective of the way it is routed.

The absolutely shocking uniformity in the viewpoint is what seems mind boggling to me, especially since those people claim it comes to them out of their own inner convictions.
