Looks like this is a good explainer of the circus our country has been in for the last few weeks. It should be also mentioned that a female journalist who wrote an op-ed about The Rudimentary Finns Party's ties to Nazis got huge barrage of harassment by several right-wing politicians, including the mentioned child-groomer Wille Rydman. This escalated so much that the EU Commissioner for Human Rights condemned the incident.

As an American of (partial) Nordic descent, I've always been proud of my link to those "more civilized" countries of the region. It's shocking now to read what's going on in Finland with its Nazi infestation, one that (apparently) reaches into the highest levels of government.

Finland has world renowned primary education. Kind of scary that people can still choose to be idiots regardless of everything done for them to know better. We humans are a frustrating species.

As a mixed race American, Ashkenazim and ADOS....keep believing that "more civilized" crap from the Europeans, and the Nazis have already won.
