I believe you.

Ah. You wouldn’t believe how much I miss the shenanigans. (Only once did I wake up in the brig, but I was banned from leave a few times.)

The movies really don’t exaggerate it that much, lol.

I’ve been through my conscription. I enjoyed it. Mostly because I knew it was mostly larping and not real war.

(Yeah that’s the backside of my dogtags, and thus empty. I’m hardly gonna dox myself my photographing my social security number, lol.)

Unlike in Russia, where conscription currently leads to being fed to a meat grinder.

throw me into a frontline battle where it’s super easy to disappear.

It’s not necessarily as easy as you’d think. It’s not like they point you towards the enemy and then you can go wherever you please.

You’re with your squad, and desertion is kinda frowned upon.

If you indirectly support that or it even just happens to coincide with your goals, yeah, it is.

“Grab-em-by-the-pussy” Krasnov talking about respect?

Well at least one spoke out.

Yay.

and calling a police officer a “fascist”

No, Germany, bad Germany. You’ve done this twice already, haven’t you fucking learned?

Got banned for antisemitism around the time the genocide ramped up in Gaza.

And I was just criticising Israel. Things got a bit heated for the other guy apparently, and then I got brigaded and reported. I didn’t defend Hamas or advocate violence, just criticised Israel.

dog like a Cane Corso or Kangal can take on a bear 1v1.

In Silverfang maybe, but not in real life.

Finland is pretty fking racist.

Using the n-word won’t get you into trouble as easily as calling someone out for using it. Has been my experience, at least.

Once an old lady I was driving home from the shops (as a taxi driver) genuinely got furious at me for just refusing to use the word (she was complaining about immigrant taxi drivers, ie my then colleagues). I didn’t even criticise her use directly, I just said I won’t use such language because I think it’s racist and dehumanising and she got mad and started yelling how “you call them what they are!”. Her husband was in the car as well. Just stayed silent.

So whole economically were pretty lefties especially compared to the US, politically less so.

I would love to move and live somewhere else for a few years but can’t afford it rn.

Well one can only hope.

I don’t have much faith.

Thanks for the info.

I see you’re a man of culture as well.

Don’t mind me just sharing some Finnish artwork from the 20th century.

Source?

Because I’m thinking Stubb is just a lickspittle.

I’ve been telling people Finland isn’t the fucking perfect place people think it is.

We’re honestly alarmingly authoritarian and most finns have issues questioning authority.

Just ask kusimulkku@lemm.ee

No that’s just a lie you’ve been sold.

No it’s a fact I know because I understand linguistics. Pick up a book sometime.

Actual =/= original.

Linguistic prescriptiveness is completely useless in terms of what those terms mean in politics now.

Elon and Trump are fucking cowards.

They stand no chance when some actually bad people turn up.
