Northern Europe myself. Radfems are not a HUGE deal where I come from - but a shit ton of people are absolutely done listening to the pseudofeminist "liberals." Sadly, this often means they turn to the right instead of trying to find a middle-ground. (In all honesty, there isn't currently a political party in my country that would be so called middle... It's either ultra-Woke or alt-right, and the in-betweeners are religious. Great! /s)

Love your username! I haven’t been in the country for a while, but I can see how people would turn to the right with how woke the leftists have become there.
Like when you think Päivi ”Kielletään kaikki” Räsänen is actually for once right about something, you know things are seriously messed up.

Thanks! 😊 And yeah. The left seems to think Finland is the USA. Every idea, policy and opinion is directly copied from overseas with little regard to the fact that the countries actually have very little in common. So obviously people think they’re bonkers (and they are correct...)

Kielto-Päivi making sense is a dead giveaway that Finland is now the goddamn Moomin Valley... argh. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Ps. Are you from there or a frequent visitor? I haven’t lived in Finland for over a decade now but I’m of course interested in what is going on politically (and otherwise).

That's so true. The mini-USA. I'm from there too, I left a few years ago.
