So even a social democracy like Finland has troubles with far right fascism. That does not bode well.

Modifying the cliche phrase, good times make complacent people, complacent people want fast solutions, fascists promise fast solutions, fascists create bad times, bad times create aware people, aware people create good times

It’s funny how history repeats. Humans never learn.

I truely believe that this is not an act of god and blame “thats how history works”.

I know for a fact that russia is mangled in politics in many many countries and it has full blown departments with the sole purpose of inciting controversy and “extremify” the “west”.

All these fascists raising their head can be directly linked in many countries to russian propaganda.

Color haired weirdo tells people from other countries how to live. Go do a salvation mission in Africa. I think they have it worse there than in Finland

Wanting to reduce the deficit and immigration isn’t fascism. Every time you misuse that word it becomes a little bit more meaningless.

Wanting to reduce immigration, if you are in a Western nation with ageing populations and a falling birth rate is fucking stupid. Also, people advocating for reduced immigration are shitcunts.

Better?

You’re either an immigrant or a deranged person. Immigration has been a disaster for the west. Mainly BC it’s immigration from third world countries. Canada is seeing insane house prices, the middle class has disappeared and a generation (who voted for this) are regretting it and are already lost

I’m sure wanting to shoot black people with automatic weapons has no correlation with fascistic ideals either.

Call it xenophobia, racism, authoritarianism, tribalism or whatever you want. They are all precursors and defined in Fascism. Let’s not wait until it happens to call it what it is… Fascism.

Search for Finns party + controversy and you’ll find why people are calling this specific party fascist. The party leader has a post about beating up immigrants In Helsinki and they had a minster that made a lot of ‘jokes’ about Hitler and attended an event linked to neo-nazis, for example.
