lol @ all the attempts itt at assigning the blame for profiting from colonialism to some narrower segment of the finnish (or better yet, swedish) society. literally everyone living here today indirectly benefits from past slavery, dwi

What's the point though? If you want to go far far before Finland even existed for examples of second hand benefits of slavery then you might as well say every single person on the planet earth benefits from slavery through some chain of events you can draw up if you look hard enough. It becomes a meaningless statement.

Like during the exact period mentioned in the article there were peasants in (what is now) finland getting beaten by landowners for not being good boys and girls, and they had no legal recourse. They were essentially deprived of most of the rights citizens usually get, so just a little tiny step above slavery.

Well, except the slaves.


I dunno where you got your history education from, but we never had serfdom in Finland.
The land given to russian nobles in southeastern finland was exempt from all kinds of laws, and the peasants living there were essentially in the same position as russian peasants, that is to say serfs. It went on for a fairly long time. At least a hundred years or so before the autonomous finnish regions bought off the lands from the nobles some time in the mid 1800s. This is extremely well documented and I'm surprised you don't know about it.

It's not the exact same thing as actual slavery since the nobles didn't literally own the people, but it was effectively fairly similar. They had very few legal rights, and no real options to move elsewhere.

Haha ei jessus mitä mussuttajia. Lisää kohokohtia:

quote:

Kalliin jättilipputangon turvallisuuden selvittäminen vasta pystyttämisen jälkeen tuntuu erikoiselta järjestykseltä. Haminan kaupunkikehitysjohtajan Matti Filpun mukaan asiassa ei ole mitään erikoista.

”Jälkeenpäin on aina helppo arvostella, mutta tässä on aika monta asiaa, mitä tähän liittyy.”

Aiheuttavatko monet roolit mitään ristiriitaa?

”Valtuuston päätökset ovat minua ohjanneet ja teen sen mukaan kuin valtuusto päättää”, sanoo Filppu.

quote:

Tukes puolestaan pyysi Haminan kaupungilta tietoja muun muassa lipputangon CE-merkinnöistä, mutta ei ole vielä saanut pyytämiään tietoja.

ADS Finlandin omistaja-johtaja Kari Hyrkäs on vakuuttanut, että CE-sertifikaatit ovat olemassa, mutta ei ole toimittanut niitä kaupungille tai Tukesille.

quote:

”Yksikään keppi ei ole kaatunut”, hän sanoo.

Leave both CP and kokkelit out. Vihervasurihallitus pystyyn. I have no idea if there are even enough seats to pull it off. Maybe with some sort of a semi-rainbow crap.
