SDP: A party for old people and sadly the only big party that does not want to sacrifice the earth to please the gods of capitalism. Still has political power due to history, but is mainly content with having a sit down after that exhausting 200 meter bike ride to the nearest shop.

Likes: crying in the corner, old picture albums

Dislikes: modern fads like telephones


KOK: Capitalists and other assorted tax-dodging rich people. Their main goal is to privatize everything to get more money.

Likes: tax evasion, legislation that gives their buddies more money

Dislikes: poor people


KESK: Incest cultists and backstabbers masquerading as farmers. Will betray everything and everyone eventually.

Likes: gerrymandering the countryside, the legacy of Kekkonen

Dislikes: journalism


VIHR: Bipolar crazy person that alternates between eco-fascism and common sense social welfare. Could be a viable candidate for becoming the fourth big party, but well...

Likes: coal, nuclear power, forests

Dislikes, coal, nuclear power, medication


PS: Populist immigration critics and I'm sure they have a lot of other views as well.

Likes: border control, bigger pensions

Dislikes: swarthy people


VAS: Leftists that are apparently different from SDP in certain ways but no one really knows for sure, this ambiguity is not at all related to the fact that the only question journalists ever ask is "Li Andersson, why are you so hot?".

Likes: basic income, organic food

Dislikes: capitalists


KD: Jesus fans and a surprising number of ex-athletes.

Likes: Jesus, Christianity, moral judgments

Dislikes: anything after 1950


RKP: Swedes and filthy rich Swedes.

Likes: being in government

Dislikes: being in opposition


SIN: A joke party that split off from PS in order to avoid a re-election, had members in government before being a registered party.

Likes: being in government

Dislikes: elections

MUUT: Väyrynen

Mitäs jos katkaistais kaikki kulkuyhteydet Helsingin kantakaupungille ja etenkin pois sieltä, sillat räjäytetään, meri miinoitetaan jne. ja katsotaan vaikka 50 vuoden päästä että millaisia elämänmuotoja siellä on siinnyt.

Absent and incapable leadership: the chairman is off faffing about in Brussels, and his leadership is essentially "post on FB now and then."

Huhtasaari should pick up the slack, but she's not very convincing outside her own supporters, because she is dumb as a post and everyone can see that. T-Hakk is technically a vice chair but he's also T-Hakk who has no credibility or political skills.

The party office has been apart from Riikka Purra's attempts at spindoctoring and farts about windmills been silent since 2016.

The Rump PS had two years to get their organization in shape for the elections, and they've really done nothing to those ends. Instead, whatever they try to do re: Oulu, is lost in the generally incoherent and belligerent yelling online they do.

Also: it's a long time before the elections, and thing will probably normalize before then. poo poo like this doesn'ŧ get attention for months because people lose interest in new developments fairly soon.

It's easier to get him once you look at the context he came from, i.e. nineties-style intellectual fascism that rejected the too vulgar skinhead movement (for the most part).

The solution to problems caused by privatization is more privatization, that's obvious, duh.


It always gives me this quaint, sinking feeling to see American right-wing brainworms infect Finns, be it abortion, climate change, or now Confederate apologia (of which "slavery would have been solved by capitalism so there was no need for the North to engage in bloodshed" is a sub-genre).

This was always gonna be an interesting poll because they hosed up the sampling last time and got only 2.5% for RKP. The shift there was probably from kepu and Kokoomus.

Ylen muuten pitäisi näyttää "Tahdon voiton ja rasistisen Kansakunnan synnyn?" and let the people judge them themselves, maybe have a panel that talks about the history a bit first.

Samaa mieltä, Kaikki tahtoo ei itsessään teoksena ole erityisemmin kohahduttava. KKK:n synty sen sijaan on pelkkää rasistista vihapropagandaa, ei taida ihan mennä 1:1 Lokakuun kanssa ellei sitten joku näe valkolahtareiden viemistä saunan taakse paheksuttavana.
