The public perception of these people is definitely a PR nightmare, but the real tangible worry for me is that they are, simply put, morons. Their competence is in social media marketing and criticizing others. When it comes to actual policy, they’ll mostly just go with whatever Kokoomus tells them to do - often hurting their own voters.

I think there’s a saying along the lines of ‘never ascribe to maliciousness what can be explained by stupidity’.
I’m not really well versed in Finnish politics, but I can say that I’ve met my share of high-functioning morons and I was glad they didn’t try politics, because they surely would have succeded. (Of course there are numerous examples from world politics of ones that have indeed succeeded…)
