I’m Finnish. Did you think I’d be supporting Russian aggression? Apparently it’s not just lack of real news, it’s lack of history knowledge too.
Imagine if the rest of Europe was as revanchist about each other as Finland is to Russia
They fought one short border war in the lead up to WW2, but to hear the Finns talk about it they make it seem like Russia was personally massacring every single civilian they could for fun on their way to burn down Helsinki
Imagine if France still held out a deep mistrust and hatred of the Germans for two world wars, or the Belgians for the Franco-Flemish war. One war a century ago and Finland can’t get the fuck over it
That’s because Europeans actually love fascism, and will never forgive the USSR for saving them from it. In their eyes, the only thing Nazi Germany did wrong was do to Europe what Europe was doing to the rest of the world.

Good job Mr. Torvalds, you are the master of being subtle. Not even RMS would do this and that’s the biggest F-you I can give Torvalds.
actually what he said was “lawyers” told him not to say. Which I read as quite vague… just some lawyers. Could have been lawyers acting on anybody’s behalf, not necessarily “his”. Maybe he got some sort of demand letter from a right wing dark money law firm. There was such an organization making interventions into linux a while ago.
Oh fuck the lemmy.ml thread is full of scratched liberals screaming about Russia bad and Russians bad and this is good actually. .world and .shitworks continue to be a mistake.
I’m also not going to start discussing legal issues with random internet people who I seriously suspect are paid actors and/or have been riled up by them.
Everyone Who Disagrees With Me is a Russian Bot is the perfect unfalsifiable truth for these libs.
The funny linux man is a chud…it’s like liberal me learning the truth about Elon Musk all over again.
