now this government formed by “responsible adults” and “economical master minds” is falling from crisis to crisis, has being met with a never before seen resistance (in normally so docile nation), lies in diplomatic missions while driving the whole image of finland down a sever pipe.
thank goddess, these “responsible adults” were not running things during the pandemic. the poor would have died as homeless on streets, others in over stuffed hospitals and the rest would be sick with long-COVID.
for context, here ja some of the achievements of the government lead by prime minister Sanna Marin.
When i go through these lists i cant help but wonder how in the fuck did they have any time to party in between of all the crises, reforms, fixing mistakes by former governments and so on.
but yeah i am a leftist son of a bitch who believes in basic human dignity, human rights and so on so i assume i can never understand what is it like to be so selfish, that any of that seems like a mistake.
back to the scandals at hand. okay not quite, i want to take a quick dive to a “summer camp” finnish nationalists, etnonationalists and over all nazis of all sort attended _four years_ ago.
then a short lived scandal was about one particular activity they held:
- shooting targets that were (allegedly) pictures of finnish politicians.
what does this have to do with anything?
Well, current and former members of Basic Finns attended. https://yle.fi/a/3-10873479 #naziJokeGovernment
Prime minister Orpo claims he knew nothing about the far right or nazi connections Basic Finns have.
Many sources from years ago confirm that he did not only knew, but also despises that.
20.6.2017 Orpo said: “You should all go see what is being written of people on the homma-forum at this very moment.”
homma-forum is a known far right site.
after that the Basic Finn party has only driven further into the far right. #naziJokePrimeMinister #naziJokeGovernment #hateSpeakerOfParliament
Ofc there is only so much one can expect from a member of a parliament party whose big campaign of the century is:
Heart is on the right! 💙
(extra points for that one election campaign advertisement where they brag about enabling the best possible school system (that they’ve been tearing down for the last 10 years or so.)) #naziJokePrimeMinister
Do you know the situation when you’re sitting (hehe) on a toilet and you’re kinda in a hurry to get to some other more urgent business, but no matter how many times you wipe, there’s always shit on the paper? Obviously it’s so because shit doesn’t stop with wiping but with defecating it all.
idk, this kinda reminded me of some government *somewhere*.
okay back to the regular program now.
#fucknaziscum
the leading four ministers have met today for another “serious conversation”.
SPP had a closed meeting after that with its own parliament group and they’ve discussed about continuing in the government.
next antigovernment protest i know of is on Wednesday next week.
will the government live to see that?
#naziJokeGovernment #naziJokeMinister #naziJokePrimeMinister #politicsFI #politics
In some media the blame for the whole government crisis is tried to shift on SDP, largest opposition party.
Orpo claims they “refused to negotiate” when in fact it was Orpo who refused to do so in hope for the furthest in to the right leaning government program of finnish history.
Matias Mäkynen (SDP), cleans the floors with Orpos accusations. #naziJokeGovernment

Minister Rydman lies on Yles radio program that “false accusations” against government are being spread in manner of putinist propaganda by “some domestic operators”.
He also said “for crying out loud, some old internet writings are not a reason to summon the parliament”. All while representative of opposition are worried about speaker Halla-Aho actively suppressing democratic rights of the opposition and of the ongoing reputation damage government has caused on Finland. #naziJokeGovernment
He also said happily, that “the government program must be pretty good since the only thing circling the news is about these false accusations”.
Which is what some of us, who will be grind to dust with it, have been worrying about.
While it is extremely important to weed out literal nazis, it should not be forgotten that the whole government program is filled with, reinforced structural racism, fascism, human right violations and unnecessary and cruel defunding of welfare state. #politicsFI
Every single one of those parties in the government and especially their chairmen have agreed to go with that government program.
EVERY SINGLE ONE.
Even SPP who is usually seen as liberal only has problems with the Basic Finn racism and how that effects the government.
The program that will leave people homeless, hungry, without healthcare and subscription medications, while making the already difficult position of immigrants even more difficult, is completely fine with them. #politicsFI
”it’s not a big deal” says another Basic Finn fascist and child groomer, while liberal assholes dance by their bells and have an illusion of power over these fuckers who will miss-use any opportunity given to them.
and now the bigger asshole of them all has given them the government and the parliament. bravo to Orpo, fascist companion of the century. #naziJokeGovernment #naziJokePrimeMinister #NaziJokeNCP #hateSpeakerOfParliament
“If one has to see something good coming out of this catastrophe, at least now the general public has begun to realise that the far right & economic right need each others and live off each other. And even if there can be some friction in some value questions, they can always agree to cooperate on trampling the rights of working class. As they always have.”

above a recommended read to ANYONE EVERYWHERE. 👆
the goal of the right is ALWAYS to repress any and all rights a human can have to gain their own goals. they may have different reasons to do so (economic or fascist) but it all always ends in totalitarianism that crushes the sick, poor & minorities as well as the working class and ecosystems with a iron fist.
the economic right isn’t working with the far right because they “have to”, they’re doing so because the WANT TO. #naziJokeGovernment
every single right established in this fucking country is there because unions, working movements and people in general refused to accept shit and protested the hell out of everything until they were at least met in the halfway.
“what has the left ever done for this country” WELL LETS BEGIN WITH BUILDING IT TO THIS FORM ADMIRED ALL AROUND THE GLOBE YOU ALSO KNOW AND TRUST AND THEN LETS END WITH A BIG FUCK YOU.
i have absolutely zero tolerance for bullshit at this point in life. #politicsFI
only thing the right have ever done in its whole existence (while filling their own and buddies pockets with money ofc) is either turn back the time on basic human and labour rights OR slow down processes headings towards more just future.
and here we are. again. economic right cooperating with far right extremists in a government which wishes to kill the poor/sick and punish the unemployed and immigrants while attempting to gaslight the whole world around them.
i have fucking had it.
oh right, one more thing the right wingers love to brag about is how THEY have achieved EVERYTHING in here from healthcare to education systems to stable society without weekly riots and burning police stations.
no. those things were achieved DESPITE you and your buddies tried very hard to stop it, not BECAUSE of you. fuck you.
THIS JUST IN, Orpo commented the situation with this weeks goverment crisis;
Government has agreed to continue the conversations this week.
“It’s important to have conversations. That is what this whole country needs.”
He also says it’s also important to listen to others.
“Things must be able to sort by talking them through.”
Orpo says that the government needs to get to work,
“I am trustful.”
Orpo also thinks it would be good if everyone would calm down a bit. #naziJokePrimeMinister
Meanwhile, professor Arto Kallioniemi from Helsinki University has this to say.
“ The situation is dire. International relationship and maintaining them on high level from the basis of human rights and democracy is absolutely necessary for our country. This situation needs to be intervened, fast. Our country cant take on a image of a racist state, where state leaders have not internalised the meaning of human rights and democracy.” #politicsFI
https://www.hs.fi/mielipide/art-2000009722134.html
Hi, Urpo, if it’s SO IMPORTANT to have a PROPER CONVERSATION why aren’t you demanding Halla-Aho to summon the opposition TO HAVE THE FUCKING CONVERSATION WITH YOU?
probably because you’re a fucking coward ass hiding behind your puppeteer fascists pretending nothing is wrong and facing the opposition would probably be damaging to you psyche at this stage of deep denial or just simply embarrassing as fuck. #naziJokePrimeMinister
latest news from the nazi government: SPP says they can’t take the situation much longer and might have no other option than to walk out.
Next antigovernment demonstration is on wednesday, we’ll see which of these happen first. #naziJokeGovernment #politicsFI #fuckNaziScum
Leader of Basic Finns Turku, Jyrki Åland, shares a picture with fake news and in the comment section BF supporters slander SPP.
Lies, lies and more lies, thats the Basic Finn model for all political action. #politicsFI #naziJokeGovernment #fakeNews

Kun maailmansota oli ohi niin alko yritys ymmärtää mitä oikein oli tapahtunut. Kirjoitettiin pahuuden banaaliudesta, säädettiin lakeja kansanryhmää vastaan kiihottamisesta, tajuttiin myönnytyspolitiikan hölmöys, demokratian hauraus häikäilemätöntä vihollista vastaan, ja se et oleellinen siitä mistä on kyse oli jo vanhoissa teksteissä. Ytimessä oli jaettu ymmärrys että ei enää koskaan. Paitsi Kokoomukselle 2023 mikä jottei, jos vaan sillä päästään eroon työehtosopimusten yleissitovuudesta.
_NCP_ parliament member Atte Kaleva has tweeted that “people covering their faces in the streets should be removed from the country”.
He has also tried to spin this take as “supporting women” and alleged that “if the use of burka is voluntary then its okay”.
This tweet was made after member of women’s rights movement Fatim Diarra said in an article (regarding Riikka Purras racist “black sack-text) that “one can’t claim to support womens rights while using racist slander.” #naziJokeNCP
I repeat, Atte Kaleva is not a member of Basic Finns but a parliament representative of the National Coalition Party (kokoomus) which happens also to be the party of our prime minister Petteri Orpo.
Racism is not a problem only with Basic Finns but is widespread within the whole fucking political system and especially within those on the right wing side. Fascism is a problem only to those opposing it, not tho these clowns enabling it. #naziJokeGovernment #naziJokeNCP
There are multiple antifascist and anti-Government Protest this week in Finland.
Wednesday 19. of July.
Zero tolerance! Racists out of the government!- protest in Helsinki.
&
Zero tolerance for racism and discrimination protest at Kuopio.
(+probably smaller ones in other cities.)
Thursday 20. of July.
Youngsters against the government-protest in Helsinki.
Saturday 22. of July
Lie-in protest in front of the Finnish Parliament house in Helsinki.
619 likes, 4 comments - Nuoret hallitusta vastaan (@nuorethallitustavastaan) on Instagram: "MITÄ? Mielenosoitus epäoikeudenmukaista hallitusohjelmaa ja äärioikeistolaista hallitusta vas..."
Fear not, in the latest attempt to shut up the SPP and media, the government is now founding a working group to “for a notice to the government about equality and promoting concrete antiracist actions”.
The reasoning is that with this program the Basic Finns will pledge to prevent racism.
for fucks sake. burn it to the ground, leave in your resignation and stop wasting taxpayers money you fascist bastards is my advice. #naziJokeGovernment #naziJokePrimeMinister #politicsFI #politics #fuckNazis
Sure, a party filled with fascist racist far right extremists will probably just pledge alliance to the antiracism paper and transform into something thats opposite to its very core meaning. /sarcam
There is no other reason to do this than a) shut up the more liberal side that has been giving government shit. b) fool everyone that this has some meaningful effects. c) just buy time to rush through the most important laws NCP wants to use to crush labour movement. #naziJokeGovernment #naziJokeNCP
leftist muncipal representative in Joensuu said in a speech held in antigovernment protest that “even a rat would be a better prime minister cause it at least has a spine”.
Member of a parliament Ben Zyskowicz (NCP), called it out on press because it’s “dehumanising to compare humans to animals”. Which literally didn’t happen cause compared would be “prime minister is a rat”. Bens family experienced holocaust firsthand, but still, he is on the side of the nazies in this fight. #naziJokeNCP
The unrespectable hatespeaker of parliament has denied the appeal made by the opposition as a whole and wont summon the parliament to discuss the trust for minister Riikka Purra.
Now he compares opposition parties demanding action to historical “red guards” and mayhem and claims to be protecting the democratic decision making from arbitrary. Opposition is worried that they cannot fulfil their democratic rights.
Classic projection and blame shifting from far right. #naziJokeSpeakerOfParliament
Basic Finn minister Wille Rydman (check beginning of thread) has claimed on multiple occasions that there is a conspiracy where some finnish operative spread false claims into the international media.
He hints its work done by putins troll factories and openly mocks opposition representatives for being worried about the state of democracy as “hysteric over reactors” whos “requests are ridiculous”.#naziJokeGovernment #politicsFI #politics #naziJokeMinister
Fuck yeah, very good analysis about the “polarisation” and “the two extremes” here. There are no “two equally extremist fighting each other”. There’s side of parties capable of civil discussion and then those who aren’t.
Whole article in link, i will translate some points below.
#naziJokeGovernment #naziJokeMinister #naziJokePrimeMinister #naziJokeSpeakerOfParliament #politics #politicsFI
meanwhile, a municipal presentative said “even a rat would be a better prime minister, at least they have spines.” in a speech held in antifascist, government opposing protests and he is accused of using “dehumanising language”.
i do disagree on that but the representative has already apologised anyway.
nazis supported by the “economic right” lead the national media and parliament in leash and laugh while hailing hitler. #naziJokeGovernment #politicsFI #politics
ps: that is what Ben Zyskowicz was upset about. 👆
a comment stolen from FB:
Biggest scandal this week in #Finland isn’t really about the nazis or their actions, hate campaigns, conspiracy theories or accusations towards international press being a part of putinist propaganda machine.
It is “is it okay to call a nazi accomplish or a nazi with mean names and overall use harsh language when opposing fascism.”-scandal.
For fucks sake I am 👌 close to completely loosing my shit over here. #naziJokeGovernment #naziJokeFinland #politicsFI #politics #naziJokePrimeMinister
Quite the crowd gathering for todays antigovernment protests in Helsinki!
Nollatoleranssi! Rasistit ulos hallituksesta- Zero tolerance! Racists out of the government- protest has just started. #naziJokeGovernment #politicsFi #politics #fuckNazis #zeroToleranceForFascists
Finnish antigoverment protesters chanting “Hallitus sinimusta, ei saa luottamusta!”(goverment is black and blue, we do not give trust to you.)
#naziJokeGovernment #antiGovernmentProtest #finland #politics #politicsFinland #protest #fuckNazis #fuckfascism #zeroToleranceForFascists
Massive antiracism and antigovernment protest in Helsinki, 19.7.2023.
Finnish antigovernment protests chanting “hallitus alas!” that translates directly to “down with the government!”.
#protest #antiGovernmentProtest #naziJokeGovernment #naziJokePrimeMinister #fuckNazis #zeroToleranceForFascists
I just want to share one more chant, one more since it’s so clever I almost died laughing.
It goes “Ei saa Purra!” which means “no biting!” or “stop that Purra!” #antiGovernmentProtest #zeroToleranceForFascists
Thousands of people are filling the streets of Helsinki in demand for Riikka Purras resignation and for overthrowing the government.
meanwhile in finnish media and Riikka Purras social media. #naziJokeGovernment #naziJokeFinland #politics #politicsFI
Hi is this #Germany? Yes hello hi, its Willow from Finland and yes so the minister that just called your journalists putinist troll propagandists also has this to say, check the picture below.
Damn this just to be easier on twitter but then again, less trolls here so i wouldn’t go back.
Anyway hello Germany, Orpo lied, there are nazis in his government, like shit ton of them and if you could share this with your friends and journalists that would be great.

“(Finnish) police: neonazis prepared for ‘race war’ by 3D printing machine guns and planned terrorist attacks agains people and railroads.
Police says the suspects in terrorist case had named, possible locations for terrorist attacks. Yle told before, that one of the suspects spread home addresses of interior minister Maria Ohisalo and general prosecutor Raija Toivalainen.”
Is this the new top news story? unfortunately i doubt. #fascism #terrorism #politicsFI #finland
#naziJokeFinland #nazis
@whangdoodler Here's Yle News article in English.
Nazis are also planning a “counter protest” against yesterdays one, i am not sharing the info unless someone is thinking of planning a counter protest. ~10 000 protesters marched against racism and the government yesterday, we’ll see how many turn out for the nazi version. i am curious to see if there will be a counter protest that day.
that might be “too direct” action for most of those attending yesterday but one can dream right? #fuckNazis #antifa
this just in, HS tells that one of the finnish far right terrorist suspects has been a member of Basic Finns and was one of their candidate in municipal election. Since then he has left the party.
This was mentioned in the end of the article as a side note.
I (and the person who hinted this to me) can’t be the only ones thinking that this is a big fucking thing right? RIGHT?
How has the internal affairs minister Mari Rantanen (BF), who is in charge of the police, (that has classified far right extremism as a high value terrorist threat) commented any of this?
(edit: she did comment later, but it was all hypocritical bullshit about “all extremist movements” being dangerous. also she forgot to mention she herself believes in population replacement theory, one of the biggest agitators for far right terrorism.)
well here’s her comment:
I’m way too tired to translate this but omfg. All i can do is laugh.
Government says that scandals have no life outside Finland. Meanwhile THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD writes and reads about our racist ministers.
One minister has to apologise for minister Purras ”Turkish monkeys” in Turkey, Purra says she had nothing to do with it, minister says she didn’t actually apologise but “offered condolences”.
what a shit show.

Pääministeri Petteri Orpon hallitus on pyrkinyt vähättelemään kansainvälisen median kiinnostusta rasismikohuun ja sanomaan, että asia ei kiinnosta Suomen ulkopuolella. Lehtikatsaus eri maiden medioihin antaa kuitenkin eri kuvan, Iltalehden ulkomaantoimittaja Jari Himanen kirjoittaa.
