Forbes:
Anger from anti-immigration parties
The pro-globalization ad quickly went viral, garnering more than half a million views in just a few hours. However, the virality didn’t indicate popularity. It drew a barrage of criticism online, notably from various anti-immigration parties across Scandinavia.

The airline, the flag carrier of Denmark, Norway and Sweden, initially withdrew the commercial less than 24 hours after it was released saying the pattern and volume of reactions on social media suggested the campaign had been “subject to an attack”.

“I have always flown SAS a lot, but I would have a bad taste in my mouth if I did so again because they spit on us like that,” said Søren Espersen, the foreign affairs spokesperson of the Danish People’s party, support for which has waned recently after mainstream parties adopted its hardline anti-immigration stance.

“What foul nonsense and self-hatred,” Richard Jomshof, the secretary of the Sweden Democrats, said on Facebook. His party is the country’s second most popular but has been shut out of government. “Always tried to fly with SAS, but never again. That’s a promise,” he said.

A street in central Copenhagen was briefly shut down on Thursday after &Co, the Danish advertising agency that devised the campaign, received a bomb threat by email. Police searched the buildings but found no explosives, TV2 reported.
