This sounds awesome and I can absolutely nag my partner to make some. Though pray tell, how much beer and what type?

Don’t ask me how but today I learned that Finnish immigrants to the US in the 1900s faced discrimination and the whole “you’re not really white” bullshit as well. I thought the sentiment in Sweden was loving ridiculous.

Generally we just pour a regular 33cl bottle (or can) of light beer into it. To keep it OK for the kiddos to drink, though I doubt even a strong beer into a 10l bucket changes things. I once added a dark beer instead which also worked fine. It's very fast and loose.

You could probably add hops directly instead of beer if you wante to be fancy. But this is definitely meant to be an un-fancy kind of thing that anyone can brew up in a week.

The only kids we have poo poo in a box and yell at us if we close the door to pee, so I think I might try it first with beer and maybe experiment with hops later on! Thanks!

"Awareness campaign" is what the Swedish government pretends they have been doing since the 70s, except it's been based on purposeful disinformation, and they can't take that back because then they would have to admit that they were completely full of poo poo for so long.

IIRC correctly that had more to do with Finnish immigrants leaning heavily socialist and were known to agitate and being troublemakers (because workers unionizing means trouble for captains of industry!) so trying to apply things like chinese exclusion act to "asiatic" Finns was convenient way to deal with the problem.

If there's one thread where skull measuring is on-topic, it's gotta be Scandipol, right? Anyhoo, the court case was about whether Finns were Mongol or white as per the Naturalization Act of 1790. I'll just let the presiding judge explain their reasoning for going against the purity and precious bodily fluids of true-born white folk.

quote:

Judge William Cant’s Ruling

MEMORANDUM.

John Sven was born in Finland and calls himself a Finn. He now petitions the Court to be admitted a citizen of the United States. The granting of this petition is opposed by the Government on the ground that being a Finn he is a Mongolian and not a “White-person” within the meaning of Sec.2169. United States Sev.Stat., which provides that “The provisions of this title shall apply to aliens being free white persons and to aliens of African nativity and to, persons of African descent.”

According to-ethnologists, the Finns in very remote times were of Mongol origin; the various, groupings of the human race -into families is arbitrary, and, as respects any particular people, is not permanent but is subject- to change_, and modification through the influence of climate, employment, intermarriage, and other causes. There are indications that central and western Europe was at one time over-run by the Finns; some of their stock remained, but their racial characteristics were entirely lost in their remote descendants, who now are in no danger of being classed as Mongols. The Osmanlis, said to be of Mongol extraction, are now among the purest and best types of the Caucasian race. Changes are constantly going on, and thrice occurring in the lapse of a few hundred years with any people may be very great.

The chief physical characteristics of the Mongolians pre as follows: They are short of stature, with little hair on the body or face; they have yellow-brown skins, black eyes, black hair, short flat noses, and oblique eyes.. In actual experience we sometimes, though rarely, see natives of Finland whose eyes are slightly oblique. We sometimes see them with sparse beards and sometimes with flat noses; but Finns with a yellow or brown or yellow brown skin or with black eyes or black hair would be an unusual sight. They are almost universally of light skin, blue or gray eyes, and light hair. No people of foreign birth applying in this section of the country’ for the full rights of citizenship arc lighter skinned than those born in Finland. In stature they are quite up, to the average. Confessedly Finland has often been over-run by the teutons, and by other branches of the human family who, with their descendants, have remained within her borders and are now called Finns. They are in the main indistinguishable in their physical characteristics from those of purer Finnish blood. Intermarriages have been frequent over a very long period of time. If the Finns were originally Mongels, modifying influences have continued until they are now among the whitest people in Europe. It would, therefore, require a most exhaustive tracing of family history to determine whether any particular individual born in Finland had or had not a remote Mongol ancestry. This, of course, cannot be done, and was not, intended. The question is not whether a person had or had not such an ancestry, but Whether he is now a “white person” within the meaning of that term as generally understood. This is the practical construction which has been uniformly been placed upon the law, so far as I am advised. Under such law Finns have always been admitted to citizenship, and there is no occasion now to change the construction.

The applicant is without doubt a white person within the true intent and meaning of such law. The objections, therefore, in my opinion should be over-ruled, and it will be so ordered.

W.A.Cant, Judge. Jan.17.1908.

Reprint of Duluth District Judge W. A. Cant’s statement and decision in the case of John Svan and 16 other Finns in which it was “officially” declared that the Finnish people are not members of the yellow race.

I’m more interested in keeping the present 300-year-old culture-germ in America unharmed, than in trying out any experiments in “social justice” … Some people may like the idea of a mongrel America like the late Roman Empire, but I for one prefer to die in the same America that I was born in. Therefore, I’m against any candidate who talks of letting down the bars to stunted brachycephalic South-Italians & rat-faced half-Mongoloid Russian & Polish Jews, & all that cursed scum! You in the Middle West can’t conceive of the extent of the menace. You ought to see a typical Eastern city crowd—swart, aberrant physiognomies, & gestures & jabbering born of alien instincts.
