Is there any chance that this could mean more than just the physical standing behind, and that "you are supporting it"?

Re: Jeg vet at du står bak dette.
Yes, that should be right. At least in Swedish (någon står bakom någon/något) and in German (hinter jmdm./etw. stehen) it has exactly this meaning of supporting so/sthg.

Re: Jeg vet at du står bak dette.
I think seeing this sentence by itself I understand it to mean: I know you are the cause of this... ....
I would not think it is about a phyiscial space at all. Det word "dette" is the problem. Left by itself I do not think it can be physical.
I may say... Jeg vet at du er bak der if I was talking about physical space
Re: Jeg vet at du står bak dette.
Wow, it's so rewarding to get a native view on DL things.
I'm looking at this sentence in a way I really didn't think of before.
Thank you, Liv and Fremanolas
