Us West Finns from Lapland and Ostobothnia don't mind a little Swedish oppression if you know what I mean ;)
Praise OODIN our ancestor! Fuck the Finno-Ugrics! Onwards to VALHALLA
>>70750296
14 million people on the island of Great Britain have some recentish Irish ancestry, the Irish love it. Can the same be said for Sweden - have many Finns moved to Sweden over the decades?
>>70750296
but we didn't.
>>70750422
Many. It's only in the last decade or two that immigration from Finland has declined, as it has with migration between all the Nordic countries. Now they favour the continent, America, or Great Britain.
>>70750422
Finns are the biggest immigrant group in Sweden. Same can't be said for Irish in England.
>>70751300
Actually no. About 2k Finns move to Sweden every year and a similar number(almost all Sweden Finns) move from Sweden to Finland.
Only 700 Finns move to US every year.
Personally I encourage especially Finland-Swedes moving to Sweden.

Nonono. I love Finland-Swedes. That's why they have to stay in Finland, keep their culture alive. Too many of them have historically responded to percieved discrimination by just moving to Sweden. Just like the Estonia-Swedes back in the day. How come only Rikssvenskar have any balls?
>>70751590
No, they mustn't. Fuck off with your imperialism.
>>70750179
>Why did Sweden oppress Finland so brutally/horrifically in history?
In no way is any of that true.
Fennoswedes are Swedes living in Finland
what are Finns living in Sweden called?
Stop making threads about finns and swedes. Its proven by now we will never be able to coexist or come along. Swedes should leave us alone and we just dont reply to each other anymore

Yes. It's cute. Has adorable vowels.
>>70752025
nvm, that's their accent, sorry.
>>70751674
There's no imperialism. They are a unique culture, that will survive easiest in Finland. If they're in Sweden they'll just assimilate. Not to mention that they are in no way an extention of the Swedish state. They are Finnish, just as much as you.

Wtf is not true
>>70752244
>>70752431
Fug, my bad. Thought you were talking about fennoswedes, not finns in sweden
>>70752144
They aren't as Finnish as ethnic Finns, just because the language they speak is a byproduct of Swedish imperialism.
>>70751355
The Irish aren't considered as foreign or immigrants under UK law.
>>70752431
Sweden has 200,000 more Finns than we have Fennoswedes and no, Finnish isn't a mandatory or official language in Sweden.
>>70752484
So the Irish who speak English as their first language instead of Gaelic are somehow less Irish? Is that what you're saying?!
>>70752533
Official minority language... That counts for something, ne?
>>70752653
yes. Ethnically, Ireland is dead.
>>70752687
yes master
>>70751968
Not really because most of them are very recent immigrants. People started moving to Sweden from all over Finland in the 60's in search of work. Tornedalians however have their own dialect
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tornedalians
>>70752653
Very much so, yes.
>>70752687
No, it isn't comparable to the status of Swedish in Finland.
>>70753086
>Very much so, yes.
Linguistics isn't the only thing that determines ethnicity, y'know. Speaking the language of another country can say as little as nothing about which country you're part of and have heritage in. It comes down to the individual
>>70753086
You're Sweden's bitch and you like it
Do you love Aland?
>>70753554
We do, Finns don't.
>>70753450
Your heritage is also an critical factor, I'm not disputing that. What I am saying is that if you have Finnish blood and speak the language of those associated with said blood, you are objectively more Finnish than somebody with Finnish heritage who doesn't.

Why should we have anything but disdain for Åland? They still have racist laws that prohibit Finns from buying property there. The UN notified us some time back that we should do a better job at supervising the rights of Finns in Åland.
>>70753086
>No, it isn't comparable to the status of Swedish in Finland.
Whether or not it's mandatory in Sweden actually got nothing at all to do with whether or not it's mandatory in Finland, they're completely separate matters.
>>70753773
Oh I think you'll find you're mistaken my Finnish friend
>>70753523
No, Finlandswedes are the ones who put these laws into place because they're overrepresented in every branch of government. They're Finland's Jews, basically.
>>70754009
why are they doing this
>>70754039
They (Swedish People's Party of Finland) are following the teachings of their ideological father.

Do Swedes still treat Finns like genetic garbage? There is a lot of Finn bullying in this video, one girl even says Finnish women are so ugly
>>70754097
Yes, anti-Finnish racism is very prevalent in Sweden.
>>70754071
wew, okay this seems to be a problem down there in finland, i live by the border and we all get along here 2bh
>>70754097
honestly, as a fenno-swede its just some generic memes but no one in southern sweden knows shit about finland
>>70754124
Wow, that pic
>>70754321
Pure? Do you say you're Finnish when you go abroad?
>>70754365
i identify as a swede but i call myself a fenno-swede, up here in sweden where i live (border to finland) we speak Meänkieli ( though i never learned it)
i've heard from some "true-swedes" that they dont consider the part of sweden where i live as sweden but as finland
>>70753847
When I went there I spoke only finnish to everyone to remind them who owns their shitty little islands
>>70753727
People in Finland with "finnish blood" have spoken Swedish for centuries. Finland-Swedish isn't a new thing, and is very different from the language Swedish citizens speak.
>>70754097
Yes they do. Theyre obsessed with how shitty finland is in real life and on int while none of them has been to finland or met a finn other than some old hobo wandered to sweden. And when they get btfo'd they claim its just banter. Disgusting place and people
>>70752431
No we don't.
All we get taught is that Finland is due east, its capital is Helsingfors, they have 5 million alcoholic inhabitants and that they were part of us until evul russia took them.
I had the privilege to have a teacher who actually included the Winter War in to our WW2 studies. But I didn't learn of the civil war and the rest of the history in the country until I personally looked it up.
But having to learn Swedish is a waste of time though to be honest. There is no longer any need to move over here for work and fenno swedes mostly just exist in certain parts of the country. Kinda dumb that its still here.
>>70754534
>they dont consider the part of sweden where i live as sweden but as finland
That's cause finns lived quite far into the area that's northern 'Sweden' now.

>>70754071
Fuck off. SFP are representing and protecting Finland-Swedes as a minority group in a country that is quite hostile towards them. They particularly need protection from Perus, who are following the teachings of their ideological father.

Anyone can apply for hembygdsrätt after living on Åland for 5 years. All you have to prove is that you understand basic swedish when applying for it.
If you are born on Åland or moved there before your twelfth birthday you get i automatically. Even if your're a filthy fingol :^)
I've even met Alandic people whose mother-tounge is Finnish.
>>70758796
Åland will never be Finnish speaking.
I just wish they manned up and voted themselves out of Finland.
It would improve the position of of Finnish speaking Finns by more than a lot.
Only losers would be Beach Swedes.

>>70758913
We're not giving them away for naught, they'll either get Finnicized or we'll get sth of equal value in return.
>>70759055
Letting them go would be beneficial for our economy as they wouldn't be a burden for us anymore.
Only problem might be double citizenship. If they still got to vote for RKP after independence they could still attack Finnish speakers every election.
>>70759055
the requirements are still true though :^)
actually also if you've lived there for several periods that add up to a total of 7 years you're also eligable.
>>70753847
Why do you hate Åland man :(
You dont hate sips do you?
>>70759573
tfw /int/ recognizes Åland as rightful swedish clay
Binland pls integrate us more, im tired of all the swedes living here
Every relevant country has an oppressed country.
For Sweden, it's Finland.
For England, it's Ireland.
For America, it's Mexico.
For France, it's Belgium.
For Holland, it's Belgium too.
For Russia, it's Ukraine.
For Morocco, it's Spain.
etc
Non relevant countries don't have an oppressed country.
Canada doesn't have an oppressed country.
Tajikistan doesn't have an oppressed country.
etc
This whole thread gave me autism.

Is that what you think SFP:s goal and purpose is: to make life harder for Finnish speakers, out of spite or something? Christ, what is this mentality?
>>70758913
>Åland will never be Finnish speaking.
You sure, no shit? I've heard Itä-Suomen will never be Swedish speaking, who could have known?
>>70759055
>We're not giving them away for naught, ... we'll get sth of equal value in return.
Never gonna happen. Unless you start cracking down on them hard, forcibly assimilating them using Skåne-tactics, the Swedish state won't do anything. If Ålanders ever want it hard enough they'll start with protests, electing reunification parties, maybe start with terrorism. Eventually they'll either pressure government into a referendum or hold an unofficial one. Then we'll just wait for internal and international pressure to force you to give it up. We won't even have to occupy it or fund militias.
>>70760107
>Is that what you think SFP:s goal and purpose is: to make life harder for Finnish speakers, out of spite or something? Christ, what is this mentality?
Um, yes...?
They don't even advocate anything rational like regional bilingualism that wouldn't complicate Finns lives. They keep roleplaying that they are still 13% of the population and thus a meaningful part of our country. They're not and never will be.
>>70760107

Those kind of parties do not exist. There's only one "independence" party.

Je ne regrette rien.
>>70760454
I know. I'm saying if they actually ever wanted to be Swedish they would spring up quickly. Either new parties or those goals would show up in the parties they have now.
>>70750179

Alright matey, but don't come whining that he's finnish next time a thread like this pops up. Seeing as you guys really can't decide if he's really finnish or not.
>>70761287
because no Swedes ever died due to famine and war that happened in Sweden, no that never happened. Ever.
Also if Finns were forcefully assimilated, as the poster claims, why did the swedish king give Mikael Agricola his blessing to translate the bible into finnish and thereby create a written version of finnish?

>>70752484
>>70752144
They're mostly Finns, of course, but from the historical upper class. The language of schooling was Swedish at one point for a longer time, you see.
That being said they should fuck off if they actually think they're Swedish. And Swedes should keep their fucking faggoty fingers off of our land, people, and culture. "Extension of the Swedish state" go kill yourself you fucknut.

>>70767607
Fuck you, if you start working towards eliminating a whole culture I'm not gonna ignore it just because I happen to live in a different country. I suppose you think UN should have kept their fucking faggoty fingers off of the Hutu's land, people, and culture?

>>70767707
Genetic science attests to the contrary. R1a carriers spread Indo-European languages, and therefore are responsible for Germanics as we know them.
>>70768107
You already did that, with the Swedo-Christian mass executions of Finnic shamans and whatnot.
