The comments on the Scripta blog — written under the username “riikka” — include multiple uses of the Finnish equivalent of the n-word as well as other racial slurs, anti-immigrant rhetoric and apparent threats of violence. The texts use racist expressions such as “mocha dicks” and “Turkish monkeys”.

Yikes. They seem to really be in trouble with how many Nazis they’re allowing to hold power. Economy Minister resigned because he’s a Nazi. Finance Minister is at least a horrific racist but likely also a Nazi. I wonder if it’s just a return to the good old days of Finland allying with Nazis and helping Nazis murder Jews.
Finland’s ‘most rightwing government ever’ to cut spending and immigration
Despite being officially “banned” in Finland, the Neo-Nazi Nordic Resistance Movement[1] seems to be only one-step removed here: both of these Ministers are part of the right-wing “Finns Party” which has direct ties to the Nordic Resistance Movement.
Edit: I said Prime Minister when I meant Economy Minister.
Which, rather creepily, has ties to the terrorist Neo-Nazi Azov Batallion that Ukraine has no problems supporting ↩︎
The Finns Party members have organized and spoken in marches and rallies with the aforementioned banned sect
In WW2 Finland hid Jewish people from the Nazis and the alliance was probably a mandatory evil after not getting support against the other fascists coming over the over

Authorities in the Scandinavian nation revealed the findings Friday in a 248-page government-commissioned independent report, which showed that 1,408 Finnish volunteers — many between the ages of 17 and 20 — served with the SS Panzer Division Wiking from 1941 to 1943.

After losing several territories to a Soviet invasion in 1939, Finland entered a deal with Nazi Germany for material support against Moscow. But the agreement also required the Nordic country provide some 400 volunteers for the SS Wiking division — a pact it reluctantly honored, the report concluded.
I’ll say this: if part of the requirement of “getting support against the other fascists coming over” is to supply volunteers to kill Jews, it’s not excusable in the least. It’s completely unacceptable.
Yes. It’s very probable that war crimes did happen as they happen with every country in a war. Nobody in their sound mind is proud of that alliance
In the present day it’s very important to remove all fascists from power
Even you recognized the issues Ukraine has with neo-nazis even though they’re in a better ethical position defending against the invader. Even there are war crimes which need to be sorted after the situation
It’s very probable that war crimes did happen as they happen with every country in a war.
So many weasel words. It’s not just “very probable”, Finland’s own government published and stands by a multi-hundred page report documented how it did happen. Also, not every country was offering up volunteers to help murder Jews, so don’t make this “all sides” junk claim.
Also, you glossed over the key point I made: if the cost to get protection from what you perceive as an invading threat is to offer up volunteers to kill Jews, you are completely in the wrong for accepting that protection. That is not a fair trade-off to make.
