Perché c’è una bandiera confederata in Finlandia? Ci sono persone che sostengono la Confederazione? Non so se questa persona sia americana o meno. Se lo sono, non migliora le cose. Se hanno finito vorrei sapere perché sono d’accordo. È qualcosa che è prevalente qui o è un avvistamento raro?

I think most people who have such a flag here don’t really know what it symbolizes. It’s just a “cool rebel flag”
Dunno about this one but I have met people who think its a flag of freedom, lol. Like almost an anarchy flag. Blissfuly unaware of its origins. Could be there another “freedom fighter” with limited history knowledge
They could be a civil war reenactment participant.
at most a moron or a dukes of hazard fan.
The confederate flag used to have a very different connotation in Finland. It was associated with the American life-style and was heavily used in scenes especially affiliated with American 50’s music & old American cars and was somewhat a silly, innocent statement by people, who didn’t understand the actual origin nor were educated about it. Now after the social media boom and grown global awareness, it has obviously been toned down, but some people still live in their own bubbles.
Or the tenant is a full-blown racist. That’s also a possibility.
Excluding the more ‘reasonable’ reasons already pointed out, you would be surprised how many people these days get radicalized/politicized by American/Russian politics by living in their respective echo chambers on internet.
Its definitely rare sighting, you see such people usually in those mentioned internet chambers rather than flaunting it IRL. I mean I come from central european country and I have seen both Trump signs and also good old hammer and sickle (that one on people definitely born after USSR broke apart) there few years ago.
This guy is an advanced racist
Edge lord thinking he is being a cool guy. Nothing more, just plain stupidity. Most likely seen it in some stupid american movie.
