Oh the many times. Go on, quote me and let's see. It should be easy since I'm wrong so often in your opinion. And that guards vs spitting kids from back a while ago I think are talking about? The guards were acquitted and it was indeed determined the kids were spitting and flailing to an extent they had to be held down.

CB is such a vile kretin I find it humourous for him to call out others of "bad taste". Again, what did I say that wasn't factually true there last page, huh?

How about Sweden's problem with rabid swarthy children masticating innocent white people? That was a fun one.

I'm guessing you were talking about this, what, 1,5 year old case here. It says the kid in the video was biting, spitting and kicking and refused to be detained. The guards were acting on police orders in detaining the kids, not slamming anyone to the concrete for fun.

If you mean something else, please elaborate. I'm human and sure, wrong 1/10 of the time or whatever, I'm happy when I'm corrected in those cases. I, too, press the click or reply button too fast. I am also susceptible to overreacting to social media rumours. So is everyone else. That doesn't really make the 9/10 times I'm right *poof* vanish.

Now even the Left Alliance has more support than persu, and Greens almost twice as much. Will it be RKP or KD that passes them next?

That's why the correct way to use the polls are looking at the recognizable trends, not the once-a-month figures. SDP has plateau'd out for now, the big deal is the ongoing fall facing the Rudimentary Finns and the Cocks.

The methodologies used by Taloustutkimus have some general iffyness to them and they don't really work well in exceptional situations like this one. For instance, the corrections used might actually hide some of the collapse of the Rudimentary Finns.

It's all right because when the next elections are coming, Soini can just hint at hating niggers and also give leeway to the explicit friend of the family-haters and Ligur and all who are like Ligur will vote Hitler again because they are really loving stupid.

Yeah you can go read it. Instead of being filled with "hmmm, factual error!" there's a long list of probations for "cheerleading/whineleading" (I don't even know what those are), stuff like "weird post" and so on, obviously reported by posters from... a certain thread or two where people disagreed with me. Nearly 100% of those posts considered the sensibility of then Nordic migration policies back then and their errors, yet what I said is now real actual Swedish migration policy. So I wasn't that wrong, was I?

The current Swedish prime minister would have been probated on those grounds for his latest speech. I have no problem with that, of course, if people fly off at something regularly maybe better cut it for a while, that is good forum moderation. People becoming enraged is not fun for anyone else reading.

But to credit all of that to me just being de facto wrong about something/everything, vs offending someones opinions or sensibilities with the wrong statistics, is a stretch don't you agree.


Cough away and make sure you don't choke on it, but I never posted that the whole of Sweden = Fallout: New Rinkeby/Tensta.

I don't think anyone did... maybe that one guy from Viro, though? While otherwise a solid poster who wasn't afraid to shove a stick in the beehive. Don't confuse him with me anyway.

Actually I think it's because you're a nationalist who's turbo-antagonistic and cannot go five seconds without talking about your PROUD NORDIC HERITAGE, how superior Finland is, and how those dumb savages from Outside are ruining things. Or whining about being punished/called-out for not shutting up about those things.

Like I saw you in this very thread have a debate with yourself and immediately conclude that Finland wasn't racist at all then decide the discussion was over.

You're a smart dude, but you really need to start seeing beyond your nationalism.

An antagonist needs an agonist. But what on Earth is that PROUD NORDIC HERITAGE stuff or superiority crap? Can you quote me saying something like that? Or what do you mean?

Oh yeah this. A bit of both but at least my social media bubble tells me their voters are extremely disappointed this government let 30k extremely poorly educated young arabs who speak no known local language walk here from the warzone that is Sweden, to escape certain death and torture, excepting Finns pay for their upkeed until the end of time and to complain about food. While we cut everywhere else. That is not exactly what was expected with with PS in dah gub'mint :haw:

Many think PS should have someone stopped this and blame Soini or whatever, even though it was Orpo who let that happen (it would have been perfectly legal and possible to close the border from paperless wandering men and turn them back). It's not that PS isn't hardcore enough, but that they could not force kepu and kok to abandon their hooray open borderz is the new Nokia policy last year...

Perse could have made it a hallituskysymys and forced Sipilä to either take SDP in to gently caress up his kiky plan or close the border. They didn't, because Soini values his ministership more than his principles or supporters.
