World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

What criticism am I avoiding??
Read the conversation back and see how many times you've even implicitly acknowledged I was stuck in a cell writing with blood on the walls, breaking my basic human rights.
The fact that I have to actually spell it out for you IS the problem.
Your criticism over Finland being a good place to live according to Finns is that you say out of nowhere that you were tortured and writing on the walls with blood and shit like that, of course I'm going to be confused as fuck. It comes off straight up crazy.
It's a perfectly coherent example of the depths that emotional stuntedness comes out as; pathological avoidance.
You're still doing it, and wrote that comment in a way that you don't even implicitly accept that this actually happened. And you're a random person on Lemmy, probably a bit left leaning, smart-ish, etc.
You don't understand that the psychological avoidance you're doing is endemic in Finland, Finnish culture, and the Finnish language.
The fact that I'm having to spell this out THIS hard is very much what I'm talking about. You pretend like you don't know that everyone can see that your avoiding this subject on purpose. AVOIDING. As in, not facing a thing, because you're afraid of something.
You simply can not accept flaws and mistakes in Finland. You say you can, but you clearly can not. That is the issue. You delude yourself while avoiding all emotion.
It's interesting that you're calling me deluded when you feel that it's not you who is wrong but literally everyone else.
Yeah.
Because you are.
Youre still not even implicitly accepting this even happened.
My own mother did that to me.
That image has a mattress and a blanket. I had neither. The police destroyed evidence and prevented me from filming them from the start of their illegal home search.
The Supreme Court of Finland doesn't think I'm delusional.

That's my case. But you just refuse to accept I was literally tortured. You can't talk about it, because you know it happened, and there is no way you it can be justified and that would mean there's systemic issues and violent disregard for basic human rights — and you simply can not accept that, so you **delude yourself. **
They tried blaming me for vandalising the hell with my blood. I got a lawyer to ask for the surveillance tape. It miraculously vanished and the lawyer said he's never heard the cops be so scared on the phone.
But no, elä sinä lintukodossa. Valitettavasti se on olemassa sun and päässä eikä missää muualla.
Being in the minority doesn't mean you're wrong. You know this perfectly well. Facts matter, not your fear of avoiding feelings related to those facts.
It's interesting how you're making a discussion about Finland and Finns in generally all about you and assuming anyone would be familiar with your case.
You want me to share the personal info of other people?
Its curious how you still delude yourself, deny photographici evidence, refuse to accept ANY criticism of Finland and victim blame the victim of literal fucking torture.
That's disgusting and it's because you're afraid.
The article said you should've been allowed to photograph the search in your home. Didn't mention torture in the part I could read.
So you're saying I should have more evidence of them breaking my rights than the amount off evidence I have, because they illegally stopped me from filming the rights being broken?
And you genuinely how you don't see how youre delusional?
I could give you all the court documents, all the recordings of the phone calls with my lawyers, all the doctors statements I have describing how I almost reached an artery with the makeshift shiv I managed to make. I still have permanent scarring on both hands and lack the tip of my pinky finger.
If I did any of those things to someone, it would be aggravated assault. Pysyvä fyysinen vamma.
Explain to me how a person who has prescribed antipsychotic medications which he is prevented from taking, is placed under "supervision for his own safety" manages to draw hundreds of words on the walls?
Explain to me how it makes sense to you, paskahousu.
You're so deluded it's sickens me to my fucking stomach. You wouldn't have the balls to say any of this to my face.
I mean more evidence would definitely be helpful in this conversation. Now it's just a singular anecdote. Even more helpful for this actual conversation would be if you showed how this was a systemic issue or some such thing.
Finland has more human rights violations than the rest of the Nordics complained.
You're just utterly delusional and willfully ignorant.
You're a coward and can't explain what you think. Did I fake the image?
Pretty surprising if true. Can you post a source here?
It just looked like a photo of a jail cell, dunno what it was supposed to prove
You don't see the blood on the walls or do you honestly imagine that it's legal for police to put a person suffering from psychosis to an isolation cell and deny them their medication and access to healthcare AND water while they eat themselves, try to kill themselves, and draw with their own blood on the walls?
You're pathologically avoidant. Literally, LITERALLY unable to accept reality.
You're sick.
So am I, but at least I know I am.
No I did not see blood on the walls
Oh for fucking sake, stop it.
I mentioned and highlighted it several times, in every comment.
Please, your explanation of what legal thing does Finland have that allows a man to draw on the walls with his own blood under "supervision to ensure your safety, for days on end.
Do tell me.
Go ahead.
I'm very curious to hear your version of what happened to me.
I went back to look at the picture. You mean those scribbling on the wall are your blood? I thought it was just typical jail cell scribblings tbh.
I don't think it is legal, this conversation has been more about 1) what is happening 2) how does it relate to the topic at hand 3) if this is real 4) is this a systemic or a common issue.
"Typical jail cells scribblings"
You've never been in a jail cell, I see.
Now you're just in denial.
I literally wrote "I wrote over 300 words in my own blood" some dozen times in comments to you. Don't pretend this is coming as a surprise now that you actually can't explicitly say any alternative despite implicitly wanting so badly to avoid the subject.
This conversation is about Finnish emotional stuntedness, which is due to the inherent psychological avoidance "built-in" to Finnish culture and language. I could explain the reasons why it's evolved and developed in the first place, but I don't feel like explaining it to a kusimulkku.
You still haven't accepted it's actually happened. You're still implicitly avoiding it. Despite having no alternative to what happened, despite me very clearly explaining what happened and you having literally said "that's probably not true", based on just your fear of accepting that anything like that could ever happen in Finland.
That exact fucking "ei meiä lintukodosssa" attitude is what is protecting the cops and why Finland has more human rights violations from ECHR than the rest of the Nordics combined.
I have also explained those two things, several times.
Here I went to my old phone to get you these
You won't be able to accept that I was literally tortured. Not physically brutalised, mind you, but that isn't the only form of torture. It's would've loved being beaten for three days in a dark room compared to this.
See how much food there is? None of it eaten?
