Is there racism

In every contry has its THE BILL OF RIGHTS !

I never thought that Finland has two levels of people and a racial segragation system between them! But now when you point it out, it is so clear!

vanhoja rasitteita
Ruotsin kieli on mennyttä aikaa nyt AMERIKKALAISUUS tärkeää pohjolassa myös täällä ruotsissakin.
On täkeätä että yritysten nimet ovat mahdollisimman amerikkalaiset. Ruotsalaisuus niinkuin koko eurooppalaisuus ei ole muotia.
Radiossa ei yleensä soiteta eurooppalaisia levyjä.
Nimet tulee ääntää kuten syntyperäinen amerikkalainen jopa televisiossakin.
Ruotsalaisperäinen SKYPE lausutaan sekä suomessa että ruotsissa SKAIP.
Peruskoulussa ei tule riittämään lukemisen perustaksi pelkkä aakkosten opettelu tulevaisuudessa
Onko Bush pistänyt kynän käteesi?

There is so much racism in Finland. I don't understand it. I hate racism.

That it`s so true.
And here is also language racist, i mean : if you don´t speak well english, well swedish, well russian etc. you are a stupid person.

Ass you see i really dont speak english well enough..

Some of that is right, but mostly the writer is using exageration to convince the reader. So do not believe everything you read.

And you say that this can not be discussed in the media. Have you tried? You might not make it to the Helsingin Sanomat but for others certainly.

Finnish people are not anykind of cervants of swhedish people. In past this was the poorer finnish population, but times has changed. Now Finland has a better economy than Sweden. And yes the swedish language is still needed when working for the state, but not in all private firms. That is because swedish is still the second language of Finland. As the starter of this conversation certainly knows Finland has two languages, Finnish and Swedish.

I do not understand how you can say that "there are two classes of people: elite and servants", sence Finland is one of the countried with least unequality. There certainly is not only elites and servants. Most of the people in Finland are middle class, there is some elite and hardly any poor. Although nowadays this is changing a little and some have actually managed to become even millionaires, but it is ridiculous to call the "poor" of finland poor. Compared to the poor people of other countries the "poor" of finland are rich. For example in France there are 60 million poor people and it is not too rare to find two families charing one little room outside Paris. Not even to mention the low criminality levels of Finland it is ridiculous to say that the rasism would be that high in FInland. However it is true that there is racism amongst swedish and finnish people.

I do not personally think that in about 20 years time the Swedish language is still going to be another language of Finland. Already for years there have discussion about mooving the obligation of learning and knowing swedish, as it is not really needed ANYMORE.

I would like to make one thing clear: it is not needed to know and learn swedish in order to serve "the superior swedish people" but because Finland has the chance of being a bilangual language and when working for the state is it not obvious that you can not be hired if you do not speak both of the languages?

And yes the actual Finlandswedes are a minority in Finland. And isn't it only right to make sure the minority will also have places in universities ect.. Also in England all firms have to, by law, hire a certain amount of people from minority groups (gays, black people..)And this has actually become to a ridiculous phase where a black lesbian woman has better changes of being hired than a native english straight woman with same qualifications or maybe even better ones, just because the black lesbian belongs to a minority group and all firms have to hire a certain amount of people from minority groups.

What would actually be equality would be to not allow the employer to see the name, adress, age, color, nationality... and onbligate them to hire people because of their qualities. This system is actually already being tried in some places in France.

So just to conclude please to not ever call Finns the servants of swedish people, because that is the last thing they are.

It is not right when you say there is no racism against Arabic muslims, some africans or russians! I would not reallys say so. There have been quite many conflicts between immigrants and finnish people, more than between swedish and finnish people.
