Really funny too because it was the USSR that gave them their independence.
"They will never forgive us for it"
Isn't it weird how we've collectively gone back in time 50 years to the Cold War? It's become more and more common to hear libs and conservative call each other commies, the Hammer and Sickle are being banned, and Capitalists talk about the Russian Federation like it's the actual Soviet Union.
also isn't it weird how communism is to blame for every problem in this society created by a hegemonic capitalist system?
Turns out class conflict is a real thing that emerges from material conditions and not just something the Soviets made up.
pretty funny in its own way that the fall of the soviet union didn't end the cold war
I'd argue we are going as far back as the 1920s, with the global economy on the verge of imploding, socialism becoming popular in western nations, and the increasing tolerance of fascism (even nazism) and anti-communism reaching dangerous levels.
Fascist 80 years ago, fascist today
Yep
What a joke. The government consisting of neoliberals and nazis banning communist symbols, when the communist parties of Finland get like 0,1 % of the total vote every single election. Stalin should not have stopped at Tali-Ihantala.
Freedom and democracy. Free speech. Civilized world.
Right π
Fascists gonna fash
Safe to say that banning the symbol of the people that defeated the Nazis probably makes you a Nazi
Heated NATO moment
I'd be lying if I said I was surprised
I'm only surprised it took them this long
Then just make a new symbol, the sickle is not as representative today as it used to be when it was invented anyways, since agriculture is more industrialised now, at least in Finland.
Hammer and sickle is over βπ Time to use tractor and keyboard πβ¨οΈβ πͺ
They can't ban stars and the color red, lmao. So long as those are around they'll be good.
The problem is that theyβll just ban the new symbol if it gains enough traction
It's always either Ukraine, Baltics, Finland or Poland, even Balkans, Hungary, Czech and Slovakia are silent, alwayse these bark 24/7.
