only interview people who own a home, are highly educated (and connected) and old people with lushy pension
also the unhappy ones kill themselves or end up in jail, if someone asks the strugglers are they happy they just say yes to get rid of the guy polling them because they are too busy to have time to sign some stupid poll about happiness when they're thinking how they're going to pay for some surprise cost that popped up

mainly it's our high suicide rates and our wealthy being completely content with jumping over homeless people because they probably did it to themselves, are junkies or are criminals that got what was coming to them, it isn't like good people would ever become homeless due to circumstances or anything after all

welcome to 4chan, I'm not sure why you're seething so much, an american would have easily taken something like that in their stride... well maybe it's because you're required to tow a line

norway has high income but everything is expensive as well, they don't realize how good they have it until they become tourists in another country and their paychecks can suddenly afford them a lot more luxury than back home, then they become entitled asshole tourists that treat the countries they visit like it's mexico
only reason norwegians aren't happiest in the world is because they're too spoiled to enjoy what they have due to having oil reserves and the benefits of that trickled down to the masses
your country sucks because corruption is openly accepted with a thin veil of a napkin on top of it, even the average housewife understands that you have to bribe the wheels of bureaucracy to get anything done in russia
what does that have to do with norway? literally nothing but it has to do with the happiness poll
>>
>>222004889
I'm not seething. I know that my country is shit and I live in kleptorcracy.
I've been on this board for a long time. I'm just still puzzled by this behaviour displayed by some posters.

ill condense it down for you "russia bad" mentality, there that's why they need to point out everything bad about your country
why russia bad? because that's the common mentality among people who want to talk about politics and only know russia through the news and youtube, i've never been to russia but i know it has literature and music which is rustic and quite depressing, the general attitude towards life in russia seems to be "things suck but we are still alive" which is pretty similar to finnish strugglers attitude
maybe one day the states stop fucking over the citizens to fund their bullshit and to line their own pockets but until that day we labor and we drink

you live in a fantasy world where other's bullshit distort your view. you don't have any kind of personal experience. you are exactly that kind of a guy who the news media loves because you don't want to experience anything or have any kind of an experience. if you actually visited those countries, spoke with the people etc. (which you never will) you'd probably have a different woirld view.

because i was talking like AI way before AI or even chatbots became a thing, generic conversations require generic way of expression
if you're only stating facts and opinions you don't need to sound like you're having a conversation with another human being, because you're not you're putting out ideas and they either get challenged, accepted or ignored

>>222005082
you are brainwashed as fuck. the only way you can really have a genuine opinion about things is to experience them yourself. but you are a guy who reads about nonsense online and makes up things in his mind and believes them.

would recommend that you just stop it and be more open minded until you actually have an opinion that is not npc tier.

no true scotsman will do you no good in a debate, you're attempting to gatekeep knowledge by barring it without personal experience, does medicine stop working just because you don't know how to dose it correctly like a doctor?
does the field of medicine stop existing because you are unable to practice it at a professional level, does the wind stop blowing just because you don't know why it does it?
facts are facts no matter who believes them, opinions are personal and hold no inherent value, just because you got your ass beat by a black man does not mean all black men are violent, it just means that you have encountered a aggressive person of high melanin content and gotten into a fight with him
your personal experience requirement is as retarded as denying the existence of every field you are not a educated and experienced professional on
you are not bright enough to have a debate that isn't riddled with flaws and that cannot be ripped apart by a toddler so i would recommend you learn how to debate before you do it again next time if i gave a enough of a hoot about what you think

this is also considered a win in finland, very butthurt and brainwashed people
>>
>>222005142
showing an example of one uppsmanship that is juvenile in response to that is a mid approach to trying to teach me that i am being an annoying person to debate with
comfort is not a requirement in a debate, opinions are worthless to all but their holders, facts can be viewed from all angles with pyrrhonism and debate is based on either finding a solid truth (pointless mental masturbation due to pyrrhonism) or to one up the other person (pointless ego jerking)
the fact that a person is partaking in debate means they're either willingly or unconsciously craving one or the other, make sure what you're trying to get out of it before you engage in it

it is not, our independence was the "win" that they try to argue was won after fighting soviet union twice
mannerheim himself adviced the finnish government of the time to just give the soviets what they want and that finland was in no shape to fight a war, they ignored him and then went to cry to him to lead the armies
the war was a avoidable disaster and it is debatable if it was even necessary to retain finnish independence, the common consensus is that soviet union and stalin would have just kept pushing for more and more like hitler did with neville and that's why the war was necessary

personally i think it's good to be free from soviet union's terror and it's after effect of poverty and misery

I'm not going to bother reading beyond the beginning of your drivel. anyhow:

there is a painfully obvious double standard when it comes to critique of say, britain, the us, france... just about every single country on earth compared to russia. you critique the us, germany, just about any other country to the face of a citizen of that country and mostlikely they'll respond with something akin to "yeah that's true haha" or some admittedly less milquetoast and boring essay in order to explain themselves. when it comes to russia, every single fucking time it's the "oh, I don't understand what you're talking about?" pretense, or some other blatantly obvious coping mechanism meant to fool fools such as you. and because you're retarded I should remind you that I have nothing against the russian people

and also nearer to le SMO into ukraine, their victimhood behavior repeatedly made me suggest to them that they add the colors of the russian flag into the woke pride flag. you realise how willing their political douchebaggery is to try and manipulate every possible emotion us humans may feel outside of the developing the russia? it's a child-like clown show intended to appeal to morons, and they'd laugh each time your retarded thirdie brain believes their bullshit

okay but can it answer my question
>>
>>222005243
the only written language for a long while was swedish, finland had swedish / fenno-swede aristocracy that knew how to read, the wealthy merchants knew how to read and so did the clergy
it is pretty hard to "know how to read finnish" when the written language is not even implemented yet innit?
>but most people didn't know how to read swedish
correct, most people were peasants who spoke a different language and even the ones who knew how to speak swedish didn't have access to formal education until clergy started to preach the bible in finnish and later on teaching the farmers how to read became a more common thing during protestant (lutheran) reformation and it becoming the hip cool new thing to have people know how to read the bible
russia did liberate finland and made us a grand duchy, soviet union did nothing but demands and war on us, tzardom of russia and soviet union are two quite different things
>>
there were also some german influences in finland but they had to compete with a swedish majority in court, but all european courts kind of did diplomacy and war at one point in history or another
expecting monarchy to grant literacy onto the people is kind of silly, that usually comes as a placation instead of a right when you're trying to keep a bunch of people working in miserable conditions and taxing them to hell and back
what modern west doesn't realize is that you can't put the genie back in the bottle and no matter how much you butcher education once people know how to communicate across great distances ideas spread and such
