    I went from calling it Dopenhagen to Nopenhagen. Nothing happened but people who hate capitalism criticizing it publicly with one hand while trying to reach in the pocket of capitalist countries with the other.

    I'm sure it did wonders for the local economy. Corrupt politicians, agenda-driven scientists, and watermelons (green on the outside, red on the inside) spending millions of taxpayer dollars to bullshit the planet into killing capitalism.

    The Copenhagen Global Warming Summit. People called it Hopenhagen. Actually, more than people, ads were shown in other countries pimping it as "Hopenhagen".

    The Mayor of Copenhagen and the Copenhagen City Council renamed the city "Hopenhagen" for the time period during the summit.
