Found the video
The airplane stunt was only going to work once.
I'd support deporting greens tbh
what have they done, apart from having some loonies in their ranks?
What's with the 'being sent to their death' statements? The Swede was saying the same thing and it's totally unsubstantiated; they don't even know where they are being deported to or why.
Correction; It works in sweden.
It's a commonly accepted fact that finnish and swedish police are like night and day.
And while Agnes and Sven might be working on a shitty budget with a lot of convoluted office politics and regulations involved, Kyllikki and Jarmo have a job to do and these kinds of antics are making them miss their coffee break.
That will backfire if used that in literal sense. lol
For a split second, I considered voting for these retards.
I am so fucked when the elections come, there's 0 viable parties.
Looking at the party list, my options are:
Centre Party: Right-center corrupt nutjobs that want to privatize everything so their buddies make a shitload of money
National Coalition Party: Right-wing corrupt nutjobs that want to privatize everything so their buddies make a shitload of money
Social democrats: Slightly-left party whose youngest supporter is probably in their 60s, started off as a worker's party but moved "up" as the voters aged. Made up of old corrupt pieces of shit, like the above two.
True Finns: Currently neo-Nazis.
Blue Reform: Members used to be in True Finns, but they left and started their own party when they realized that the neo-Nazis they invited into their party were neo-Nazis, and then a neo-Nazi got elected to lead the party. Shouldn't even be in the parliament, they only have seats because the members got voted in while they were in True Finns.
Green Party: Literally retarded. Their goal seems to have some amount of members in the parliament, but not enough that they could actually change things, this way they can just keep talking shit on Twitter without having any responsibility.
Left Alliance: Communists. Enough said.
Swedish People's Party: hurrit vittuun
Christian Democrats: Sharia law, Old Testament remix.
To sum it up, my options are:
Old leftists: They've done literally nothing to deserve my vote, Finland's "not-Trump" vote.
New leftists: Literally retarded.
Right-wingers: Destroy our education, healthcare, and infrastructure. They're currently running the country, and they've fucked education up royally already, but people keep voting for them because all they need to do is yell "immigrants!" and the Green Party will remind everyone of how retarded they are.
I'm a leftist that's nowhere near retirement age so I guess I'm forced to vote for the treefuckers, fuckity fucking fuck.
I sorry to sound mean, But if you don't like what your country current elected political parties. Just create new left-wing political party and runs as local candidate to spread your beliefs and as good start?
I don't have the resources to gather 5000 supporters to start a party, and my political platform would be "I'm not a retard so vote for me, and by the way, I'm 25 years old so we all know how much life experience I have, so I'm totally right about everything".
I'd basically be the leftist Trump, without the money, without the voters, and without the Russians.
There's a lot of shit you need to do to start a political movement, it's not really doable by a single person if they don't have a decent chunk of money.
There's some smaller parties that I didn't mention, that are good enough (like the Pirate Party) and some that I honestly have no idea about (Feminist Party, they got a surprisingly good amount of voters in the 2017 municipal elections) - those might fill the niche I'm craving for, but they're not big parties capable of changing things, so while it's not a wasted vote, it sure feels like one.
@nikomo
Swedish Peoples Party: Hurrit Vittuun
I cant tell if this is a bad attempt at a zinger or if you just have a basic understanding of politics and that you're just say things that others have relayed.
Don't get me wrong, SFP / RKP are a shitty party, but this statement gives me a reason to doubt the rest of yoyr "list"
With 9 seats out of 200 and political gaming to get into the government (for 36 consecutive years until 2015) to push their minor agendas for their minority supporters, they're not worth going over on a foreign website because nobody outside of Finland cares about them. However, having 9 seats means they still need to be mentioned if we're listing "big" parties.
They'll do nearly anything as long as they get their minor demands met.
They're more of a lobbying group than a cohesive political party. They have their shit together so they can get what they want, but they don't want much.
Now you've gone and done it. What does Hurrit Vittuun mean? 'Hurts to fuck'? Explain?
Oh thats were you're wrong, cause I happen to be apart of this minority which rights are advocated for.
Swedish speaking people in finland = 4,9 %
Native americans in the US = 1,9 %
Guess we can overlook their rights as well, they're only a small minority.
In short; si de i röven, vänster-fittu.
Hurrit is the plural offensive slang word for the Swedish-speaking population of Finland, hurrit vittuun means telling them to go fuck off.
There's no actual resentment (at least that I know of) against them, but being annoyed by their existence is a phase that a lot of people go through, because of the mandatory Swedish lessons in 7th to 9th grades of mandatory education, and then again in higher education.
They're a roughly 5% minority of the population, but they're used as the excuse for why we have to keep forcing kids to waste time "learning" Swedish (newsflash, almost nobody actually learns Swedish in school, it's a joke), while more reasonable options exist:
Let kids near the eastern border learn Russian instead - the Swedish-speaking population is entirely on the western side of Finland near the coast, so there's no way you'll ever have to use Swedish at the eastern border, while there's a reasonable population of people that speak Russian on the eastern border.
Allocate the 2 hours wasted every week into something more worthwhile, like physical education (to combat childhood obesity) or sciences.
Once a person gets through school and enters the workforce, they completely forget about the mandatory Swedish education, and they stop having any specific feelings about the Swedish-speaking population, because they're no longer forced to care about it.
Do you think hurrit themselves support mandatory swedish? We know it's a joke and should be optional.
And I represent the average swedish-speaking person just fine. If you were to hazard an educated guess, what region am I from and what do I do for a living?
I don't care, this thread isn't about you.
Yeah it's fucked that you still need to learn or language, it's useless unless you want to work in Sweden. But let me get this straight, there is an actual Swedish party in your country trying to paint Swedes as oppressed?
OT: I will never understand how people as uninformed as this woman are driven to take action while people who actually have a grasp of what is going on with the refugee crisis largely remain quiet. That guy being deported will not be sent to death. In fact he will most probably be sent to one of the 4+ countries he walked through to get to Finland. The refugees and migrants don't register in the first countries they land in which is how it's supposed to be and it's good that you set a standard which hopefully will keep people from trying to migrate. We will hopefully do the same thing after this election when SD will be the biggest party.
Not really, they don't need to. They have a loyal voterbase, and 9 seats is 9 seats, it's enough to form a government if voting gets close, so they slip in and promise not to make noise, as long as nothing is changed.
You're correct for the most part but I want to say, it's actually possible for them to get to Finland without being "tagged" by the EU. If they get into Turkey without detection, they can get a boat to Russia and go near Sochi/Krasnodar (or go by land through Georgia), and then go through Russia to Finland.
Russia's been catching them right now as a "be nice or we let them through" thing, but they're not perfect. It's basically the Finland-Russia version of the EU-Turkey immigrant/refugee situation.
But even as such, don't refugees who come to Finland still try to make it to sweden anyways?
I didn't consider that.
Another big contributing reason is smugglers selling the swedish dream blown way out of proportion.
Greens seem to be the only political party not hellbent on dismantling the welfare state for personal gains so it sucks they tend to be this ...crazy
That's true but I think in our case it's the government and even most of the "opposition" blowing it out of proportion. Of course we should take in our share of refugees but we don't have the capacity for half of this and now we will pay the price. Every party was positive to take in even more. Some advocated open borders but now everyone have the same policy that SD had 10 years ago while SD wants to completely stop the asylum granting for a few years until we get our shit together.
I'd say go for the Swedish people's party, but that's just my humble opinion.
I'm not even Finnish but I imagine anyone who invested an hour of their time could better describe the party system in Finland than him. I can bet Left Alliance aren't actually communist but SYRIZA type New Left. Also, he doesn't realise that "literally retarded" is just a boring and uninformed statement to make.
They literally self-describe themselves as eco-socialists, which combines Marxism, socialism, and environmentalism.
When starting, it got the vast majority of its members from the dying Communist Party of Finland. (The Communist Party stopped political activity in the '90s after the Left Alliance was formed).
Their current chairman (though I suppose in this case chairwoman is more accurate) is a self-identified Marxist socialist.
What else can you call intentionally ignoring facts and starting random shitstorms? It's their raison d'être.
communism and socialism are not the same thing at all
They can't literally say they want communism, it's still a big no-no, the Communist Party was literally banned until 1944 because of the Civil War where Finnish Whites had to fight against the Finnish Reds that had help from Soviet Russia.
In America, your politicians can throw around the word socialism like the diluted piss it is over there, but over here the concept is tainted. We literally had a civil war over this shit.
That's why people here prefer social democracy over democratic socialism, social ownership doesn't work with everything. It hasn't even been 3 decades since the fall of the Soviet Union, people still remember that shit.
