There's the old adage that goes something like this.
Every society gets the government it deserves
Finland is about to join NATO which is interesting. Putin must be crapping his pants. The Finns held off the Russians in ww2 unfortunately they also sided with Hitler.
It seems that lately (last 13 years) there has been a swing to the far right across Europe and the USA.
Blaming the foreigner is the oldest trick in the right wing propaganda playbook.
This is why public opinion is swinging to the far right. Propaganda from legacy media tycoons like Rupert Murdoch.
He's launched a 24 TV channel in the UK full of degenerate right wing hacks. Vomit inducing content. I've watched it lol.
Who benefits from this is the question? 👍🏼
It was the only way to survive at the time. Interestingly, there was a referendum of the commonwealth allies as to whether Finland should be seen as an enemy and Australia (on the other side of the world) was the only country that said yes. So they had to - it needed to be unanimous.
The other interesting thing is that the Finnish airforce had a swastika as its insignia since about 1914 - decades before the Nazis used it.
Economic hardship and a sense of financial injustice does it.
He is from my home city! :D
The same fraction of a percent who benefits from everything.
Sadly this was true for so many people during the war.
I'm thinking of the prisoners who worked for the nazi's in the death camps in order to survive until they became to weak to work. Truly horrific.
The swastika is an ancient symbol. I think it originated in India where it's meaning was. To love?
Don't quote me on it but for some reason I know this obscure detail?
I'm surprised Murdoch is still alive? He must be 100 years old already? If he's not it feels like he's been meddling for my entire life.
Nuff said. 😎👍🏼
