Why do finns hate finland?
>>225978916Finns lived in SOVLful mudhuts and cool caves before the Swedish bladdy basterds forced them to live like this
>>225978946thispay reparashuns SVEN
>>225978916Streets are too wide for no reason
>>225978916Could have been a img from my city frfr
>>225979062>Single lane on one side>Two lane on the other>Too wideWhat?
>>225979062This. Not walkable. Not walkable at all!
>>225979104Wide streets are usually ugly and pointless
>>225978946I mean we know what Finno-Russian villages in koreliya and myurmjansk look likeIs primitive as can be
>>225979164But that street isnt wide tho.
>>225978946
>>225979277Yes it is
>>225979383A two lane street isnt a wide one. Its pretty fucking normal.
>>225979409its huge what do you mean
>>225979860Theres a tram going trough the middle its not actually that big
>>225978916Damn, it even looks more bright than here.
>>225979183You need more?
>>2259799841/3 of Finns are fine with doing bussiness as usual with PoccnrI'm not one of those chimps
>>225979965You deserve russia
>>225980041I meant you need more than a log cabin in the woods?
>>225980115Those cabins are all rotting lil bro
>>225979409Too wide. Should be cut down to 1 lane onlyBest situation would be to get rid of all the lanes and redirect car traffic elsewhere. Let the street be for trams, bikes and pedestrians only
>>225980338Nta but do you know the specific situation on that street? I do like walkable towns, but I also want the firebrigade to be able to get to my home.
>>225978916Those place only foreigners live
>>225980338can't believe chuds look at this and feel nothing but seething rage
>>225980338the problem is that the city planners are schizo. they try to accommodate both cars, cyclists and pedestrians, leading to no one being happy, with traffic jams and crowded bicycle lanes at the same time.

>>225980522an abandoned house looks... abandoned??
>>225980554>it's le abandoned because.... it just is>you can only compare abandoned Russian houses to lived in finnish houses so we look favourablelmao
I wish my country looked like Finland.
>>225980426That's the city of Utrecht so it probably used to be a wide street with multiple lanesThey did restoration work on a canal that was drained for a road. Now it's back to being a canal
>>225980522You don't have to do that when you can just post russians living in houses that look the same as abandoned buildings
>>225981019>UtrechtWell look at that, I have actually been there...
>>225981020Russian living conditions are insane. Half of the time their heating or water is also broken
Don't you have a feeling like Finland's miracle in the cold war era is a bit overlooked? In the 1950s Finland was a regular eastern European country, relatively poor, backwards and Finns would emigrate to Sweden or the US en masse to work in menial jobs. And already in the 1980s it was one of the wealthiest and most developed European countries.Since Finns love posting their country's picture, I've seen quite a lot of working class houses from the 1950s/60s there and they looked no different from Russia-tier slums. Improving everything in barely 20 years was indeed a miracle.
>>225979062Helsinki is a car ridden shithole sadly
>>225981104Yeah our grandparents built this shit from agrarian poor shithole.
>>225981155is there a modern politician who looks up to Kekkonen's heritage?
>>225981191Not at all, no.
>>225981203how is his political doctrine seen in Finland nowadays?
>>225981155This. I know they would be happy to see how beautiful and vibrant Helsinki has become. It looked completely different when I was young. It is becoming a truly modern European city.
>>225981244Maybe you are refering to immigrants but this was a poor shithole better part of last century.
>>225981104>Finland was a regular eastern European country, relatively poor, backwardsIt was way better off than all of eastern europe including southern europe just not on par with western europe until the 80s

>>225981494Finland's GDP per capita in 1960 was $6,220 while Czechoslovakia's - $5,830 (93% of Finnish GDP, and we can safely assume that GDP of Czechia alone, without Slovakia, would be higher than Finland). I don't think you realize how poor Finland actually was.
>>225981675I still don't get how people stil don't know gdp per capita is even more useless of a metric than gdp.It literally means nothing its just the total gdp divided by the population of the countryThe average wage for industrial workers in finland in 1954 was 2.8 swiss francs in italy it was 1.2
>>225982050and again, average wage is also meaningless without comparison to cost of living. economists in the world still use mainly gdp per capita at least for estimating the living standards in countries so they can't be all wrongand well, Italy could have been also poorer than Czechoslovakia, why not
>>225982092>and again, average wage is also meaningless without comparison to cost of living. Good luck finding those statistics which didn't exist at the time.>economists in the world still use mainly gdp per capita at least for estimating the living standards in countries so they can't be all wrongTell me what do you think gdp-per capita measures hmm?>Italy could have been also poorer than Czechoslovakia, why notReslly doubtful and again comapring living standards on these statistics in a market economy compared to a command economy where all wages and prices are fixed is meaningless
>>225981298I never mentioned immigrants. I mean the new trams they're building, new metro stations , new sleek modern looking buildings. Restaurants from every corner of the world.
>>225978916that’s literally the most hellish place in this country
Finland is heaven on Earth, that's just how it is
>>225980522>Summer :O>Winter >:(
>>225979374me on the right
>>225983846We are one and the same, Pekka.
>>225981228the problem is that it wasn't just Kekkonen, it was all of societys doing. There was a monoculture and urge to improve things, the capitalist class also participated. Kekkonen could call up the big shots and tell them>You will now build a factory in shitholeville!and all they could say is>Yes Mr. President!Kekkonen could say to the workers>Stop striking, back to work!and the unions could only say>Yes Mr. President!but that society is gone
>>225979965Look darker than here actually >>225981020Funny how you, nords and pribalts go reddit mode about wooden houses, just not this type of lol
>>225987395>Look darker than here actuallyNot where I live.
>>225980468I think it's beautiful, but as long as euros are hellbent on flooding their cuntries with nogs I wouldn't want to be on a tram. Would you want bike paths if you lived in Brazil? No, who cares.
>>225987535Move to a brighter place :D
>>225987833Nah, I'm fine. When the sun shines brightly it's unsettling to me.
>>225984143>guy who brought a miracle to finland was named kektruly a meme place
>>225988283please do not insult finland!!!
>>225978916I lived in Saint Petersburg in Russia for a while from 2022-24 and the only route in/out was a bus via Helsinki, it seemed ok in Finland but I noticed in Helsinki there was a lot more diversity and mixed race children running around than I had become accustomed to in SPB, also loads of women with tattoos and noserings I could just feel I was back in globohomo
>>225988868>I lived in Saint Petersburg you pulled a lot of peters! lol!
>>225988868Petersburg is the best clitty in russia
>>225984143that kinda sounds like dictatorship, why i never heard that before
>>225988948>>225988983VPN switching.
>>225989066What would a RUSSIAN of all people know about VPNs?
>>225988983Best city I've been too period personally
>>225989100why don't you mary them if you love them so much, FAGGOT
>>225989097I know them the best. I cannot survive without them in the current regime.
>>225989117Yeah I could join the army and we could rape Berlin again
>>225989154If it's rape that you are interested in, visit Rotherham! lol!LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
>>225989139And yet, you aren't using one. Curious!
>>225989173Brits ain't my type, Mohammed can have em
>>225989184I use one, but not here. I cannot post here with VPN without a passcode. So I use other bypassing tool. However this tool doesn't work everywhere, so I use VPNs for those places I cannot reach via my usual DPI bypassing.
>>225978916+1 Finland thread1 (you) for (you) :DDD
>>225989048It was a dictatorship of the mind. So after him people got spooked and the presidents powers got gradually almost completely removed. So nobody really yearns for 'another Kekkonen'
>>225981494>way better off than all of eastern europeno lmao you were about the same as us.
>>225991240he's talking about the post-WW2 period, not before
>>225978916Sex with finns
>>225991274it's not like there was any real difference in the immediate post war period beyond the total devastation most of europe had sufferedactually, finland wasn't devastated by the war. have you considered this for the "miracle" part?
>>225978916Europe. Home!
>>225978916Oh these are seasonal decorations. Didn't know
>>225991240The baltics were the richest part of russian empire but after ww2 things began to diverge really quickly poverty tourism to baltics already became thing by the 60s and continues to this day.My grandma visited tallin and riga in the 60s and said she had never seen such poverty in her life and she grew up during the war years.
>>225979062>too wide for no reasonThere's a tramline running in the middle, retard. I understand trains and adjacent technologies have not arrived to penal colonies yet, but you really should look these things up.
>>225981039Imagine the blowjob you could get splashing your Englishman cash around in a town like this
>>225982487Modern building!? Wow that must look amazing. How many window panels do they have, did you count them? What kind of beautiful smooth shale do they have? That some real savant stuff
>>225992479Child prostitution in russia is serious problem, see kids young as 8 sell themselves so they can buy drugs.Many kids also inhale some stuff from plastic bags
>>225992544I think that's 70's documentary stuff. Highly doubt anywhere in Russia is like that today
>>225978916No clue
