Oh, we’re half way there

Oh-oh, livin’ on a prayer

Those were so cool

Ah alright, I get it now

I’m just confused

If your sources have specifically talked about Finland then I’ve managed to miss those parts. It seems more general talk about “the West” and that’s not very helpful.

the impact Finland has is negative and extractionist while China’s is positive.

I was hoping something directly showing this.

The thing is, even if I found exactly what you wanted, you still would invent a reason not to read through it

You could quote it here and then link to it. That’s usually what I do.

E: Wow this reached “max comment depth”. All in all, I don’t think there ever was anything directly about Finland, just “Western countries” this or that. Western countries have done bad things, Finland is a Western country, so Finland bad. It seems all very simplistic.

A comparison doesn’t necessarily need sources comparing the two but sources about what sort of contracts and deals companies from both countries have made. Without that you can’t really compare the two tbh.

It’s important to understand that the Western countries all are generally a part of the same Imperialist organization, spearheaded by the US, supported by its hundreds of millitary bases worldwide and unilateral control of institutions like the IMF.

China is member of the IMF too. I feel like China might have a bit more say over IMF than Finland does tbh.

Finland in particular is not the mastermind behind Western Imperialism, but it gladly accepts the presense of it and enjoys the spoils, a portion of which it uses to bribe its Proletariat against revolution with good safety nets and social services.

So are we guilty from benefiting of it even if you can’t really point to something we are actually doing that’s worse than what China is doing? I was hoping to hear from some actual practises and concrete actions from both painting Finland in bad light but it sounds more like guilt by association situation.

Mozilla’s Common Voice seems pretty cool, but I’m not sure if that counts.

It’s fun to record the clips.

I mean it does show up on the feed as normal and sometimes people feel like it’s fine to give an differing perspective to such communities.

It seems you’re talking about “Western countries” as a unit and not specifically about Finland, which was the topic of the discussion. It would be a lot more fruitful to directly compare the two when the discussion is about the two.
