They still haven't told exactly what happened to him or returned his remains.

racatiwood.bsky.social•61 days ago

they would have to admit to knowing anything about it before they could come forth with details, and it's not like that's happening ever

there should be statues erected in his honour

raffurie.bsky.social•60 days ago

there are statues of him in many nations, not as many as I would like but I think atleast like 8-9 different countries? and Sweden got alot of different memorials and statues to him.
