suomesta washington postin blogeissa

kukas katsoi tänään dokumentin keskitysleiristä ? ruotsalaisethan päättivät 30-40 luvuilla että suomalaiset ovat alempaa rotua. jos saksalaiset olisivat uskoneet, olisi käynyt suomalaisille huonosti.

Teacher of mandatory Swedish are not respected in Finnish schools.

Their role is like that of the teachers of mandatory marxsism-leninism in Soviet schools.

Hated but a must to have job in the state administration. And all the Finns are educated to work later or sooner at the state administration.

7.2 % of Finns did not graduate high school last year because they did not pass Swedish.
Add to that all those who did not pass during the earlier years.
In comparison, Swedes are less than 5 percent of population.
One of my friends in high school had l in maths (10 as number) and wanted to be a MSc in Engineering. Last I saw him, worked as a security guard in Anttila
department store as he did not pass Swedish despite trying a couple of times again. Had bad English too, only m and 7 if I remember right (m is average, 8 is average), but probably could still have worked as engineer.

Laudatur (l) in maths means a lot of doing homework, nobody who gets it is lazy.

And those who are not good in Swedish (or maths or English) do not even try to get to high school as the average needed is about 8 (depending on school, some have more than 9, some not specified, which means, those who are less than average never get through high school, as it is a lot more demanding than universities, where you only study what you decided to study (+swedish, english, german usually)

So to put it in words, probably quite a lot more Finns do not pass school because they are not as good as required in Swedish than there are Swedes in Finland.

n. viisi vuotta sitten pohjoismaiden suurimman yliopiston seinillä lundissa oli vielä iso muka historiallinen natsilippu. jokainen siellä opiskellut sen huomasi koska se sijaitsi opiskelijoiden linnan seinällä.

Risto Aallonharja. You dear compare getting your mailbox blown up with getting beaten up because you speak your mother tongue? For what I know a lot of people are getting their mailboxes blown up around New Years Eve. So that justifies beating up Swedish-speaking people??!!

Have you ever visited the home pages of Suomalaisuuden liitto? It's not about ending compulsory Swedish lessons. It's about hitting down on everything that has to do with the Swedish-speakers.

The amount of hate pages directed towards the Swedish-speaking minority is huge. Do you know about a single hate page against the Finnish-speakers?

It is ridiculous to claim that the Swedish-speakers would suppress the Finnish-speakers. All societies have their part of hate missionaries. This hate is generally directed towards minorities. In Finland this is directed towards the Swedish-speakers. In Germany Suomalaisuuden liitto got into power (Nazis). Do you remember what happened? Did everything get better when they got rid of the Jews (and a lot of other people)? This same thing happened in Bosnia, Rwanda and Afghanistan. Don't think that just because this is Finland there aren't people who are capable of genocide. Should the agitators be left alone? Or should the Swedish-speakers understand to move while they still can (and are allowed)?
