This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

you have zero sources

I just gave you two sources, they say that in 1914 Russia was 2% industrial workers while Finland was 12%. Are you denying these numbers or that 12 is greater then 2?

Yes Finland was an agrarian society but Russia was moreso, again the source says Finland was 66% agrarian while Russia was 80% . 80 is greater then 66, idk how to spell this out clearer.

So either give me some sources for different numbers on industrial workers, or explain to me how 2 is greater then 12 and 66 is greater then 80

Noo noo USSR had it worse and less industry and Finns were all in cities, doing forestry."

I never said the USSR had it worse, I said imperial Russia before the revolution had it worse. I never said Finland were all in cities, just that more of them were in cities then Russia. Again I never said they were doing forestry in the cities i said they were doing paper milling. Stop putting words in my mouth, you can clearly see the comment history.

"They're doing forestry, all of them in Helsinki!"

What are "implications"?

If only the snow had thawed, the Finns would've lost

Doesn't even realise continuation war went on for several years.

Like literally you're living in a fantasy that's clearly been programmed into your brain. Has very little to do with reality.

You can see that from reading the comments you've left.

You're arguing the Grand Duchy of Finland was more urbanised than Russia, which has a city of millions of people literally a few hours away from most Finns. We still don't even have a city with a million people. You're trying to pretend that Finland was really "urbanised" when there still even isn't a large city, to be frank. Even the way a city is defined is different in different places.

The capital area is starting to resemble an urban area. You just keep living in your Soviet propaganda fantasies, I don't really mind

Look at the population density.
