Jari Mäkäräinen criticized an article in Helsingin Sanomat and said he had made corrections to it. According to him, the nonfiction writer Ari Haasio and Mattila had suggested that Finnish identity was ambiguous, compared the mistrust faced by evacuees from Karelia to current fears directed at Muslims, and stated that everyone was a descendant of immigrants. Mäkäräinen wrote that migration was an old phenomenon, but migrations from different times could not be equated. He noted that the first people arrived in what is now Finland about 11,000 years ago and believed that this did not provide a basis for equating the current migration from Afghanistan or Somalia with the arrivals of earlier traders, craftsmen, or industrial founders. He described Finlayson as an actor that built factories in capital-poor Finland, brought technology, and created jobs. Mäkäräinen compared him to a Mohammed coming from Somalia, who he described as illiterate and dependent on Kela support. He believed these examples illustrated different types of migration and claimed that there were differences in education, employment, cultural distance, and criminality. He also claimed that those coming from Afghanistan were overrepresented in rape statistics. Regarding the evacuees from Karelia, Mäkäräinen wrote that they had come from within Finland, spoke Finnish, and shared key features of Finnish culture. He said they had faced mistrust and derogatory name-calling, but believed they differed from current arrivals from Afghanistan, for example, in terms of adaptation, work ethic, and use of social security. Mäkäräinen also denied the comparison made by Haasio and Mattila between 19th-century antisemitism and the Somali discussions of the 1990s. According to him, the groups were not similar, and Jews had mostly integrated well. He argued that current migrations should be evaluated based on their impacts on employment, crime, and social security. Finally, he wrote that the continuity of society required, in his opinion, the adaptation of newcomers. #maahanmuutto #suomalaisuus #kulttuuri (translated)

A young Finnish person reported that British Christian police officer Luke Salmons, 46, won a legal battle against police administration. According to the report, Salmons challenged the claim that Islam is a religion of peace in diversity training and raised questions about jihad, Hamas, and Gaza. He was suspended from work two days after the training, and the police department deemed him guilty of a serious misconduct. Salmons was added to the Police Barred List, which effectively prevented him from working in law enforcement. The young Finnish person wrote that Salmons appealed the decision, and North Yorkshire Chief Constable Tim Forber later determined that it was not a serious misconduct nor a breach of professional standards. Salmons was then removed from the barred list. He subsequently filed a lawsuit for religious discrimination and harassment, as well as for violations of his freedom of religion and speech. North Yorkshire Police settled the matter before it progressed to an employment tribunal, and Salmons received financial compensation from the police. The amount of the settlement was not disclosed in the report. #oikeus #uskonnonvapautta #monimuotoisuus (translated)

Leena Pihanurmi wrote that cleaners, firefighters, paramedics, nursing assistants, sports instructors, butchers, garbage truck drivers, lumberjacks, and bricklayers should take care of their health so that they can work until the age of 70. She sarcastically added that at the age of 60 one could retrain if their current job became too heavy, and claimed that employers want to hire worn-out elderly workers. #työelämä #ura #terveys (translated)

Jari Sarasvuo criticized the government's actions as slow and insufficient in the face of the country's threatening situation. He wrote that the right-wing had expected the government to take a more vigorous and dynamic approach and to show more courage. According to him, the correction of YEL was still a thing of the future. Sarasvuo also accused the government of coddling a privileged elite and questioned why the support for the Finns Party was growing and at whose expense. He admitted that the government had done a lot of good, but said it was no longer enough. Sarasvuo wrote that the abolishment of the National Agency for Education would have sent a message that wrongdoing has consequences. He praised the decision to end political harassment strikes as a good start and urged the government to continue on the same path, to act more quickly, and to move more boldly to the right. #politiikka #koulutus #tulevaisuus (translated)

Saara Huhtasaari claimed that the National Coalition Party was seeking to ban home schooling. She described the party ironically as the most leftist in Finland and said that the reasoning behind the ban would be the idea that a child could not learn to read, write, and think without nine years of exposure to propaganda and the state's assessment of the correctness of their thoughts. #sekoomus #koulutus #Suomi #politiikka (translated)

According to them, the Finns Party was the only party that could continue this work. #siksiPS #perussuomalaiset #opiskelijat #maahanmuutto #opiskelijat #maahanmuutto #perussuomalaiset (translated)

Mika Merano wrote that he fundamentally believes it is wrong to think that the state owns children. According to him, the consequences of multiculturalism and inclusion particularly impact the children of families who cannot afford to choose. Merano said he understands the attractiveness of homeschooling if the alternative is a school that he described as having been proven excellent using Adlercreutz's observation method, but where instead of a peaceful learning environment and discipline there is language incompetence and restlessness. He compared the situation to those schools that students who experienced the peak years of PISA results remember. (translated)
