      As is their right to do so in a democracy, why is this news?

      Do we get articles from Spain and Germany about how many identify as left wing?

      More nonsense.

      “The proportion identifying with the left stands at 31 percent, while only 19 percent consider themselves centrist.”

    3. Low_Technician_5034 on

      “A majority of respondents, 53 percent, define themselves as liberal, while 24 percent describe themselves as conservative.”

      “Ideologically, Finns are grouped into four main categories: left-liberals (24 percent), right-liberals (22 percent), right-conservatives (18 percent), and a mixed group (32 percent) with centrist positioning on at least one axis. Only five percent identify as left-conservatives.”

      … wtf is this nonsense??? 😀

      What are the right-wing values of the Finns? I can’t imagine its as extreme as the Americans version.

      The current Finnish government is truly a cautionary example. They make policy for the wealthiest and most privileged in society at the expense of the middle class and the poor – and in the end, that’s how it goes wherever the right holds power. In many cases, they even line their own pockets.

      Isn’t it normal for roughly half the population to consider themselves either left- or right-wing, if we assume that even centrists lean more on one side than the other?

      I have always believed in the necessity of a balance between the left and right. A country needs changes in government and its political positions to function properly imo.

      By this I of course don’t mean the far right and far left, those shouldn’t get into positions of power in a healthy society as their ultimate goal is the abolition of democracy and destruction of those who dare to disagree with them.

      Did Putin himself write this? The center people, it’s at the center we solve this.

      Don’t give Putin an excuse or Trump the satisfaction.

      As long as they are pro EU, pro human rights and anti Russia, be my guest w.e

      And?

      Being left or right of whatever the centre is in any given political environment isn’t inherently good or bad. This is reductive nonsense, and extremely US-centric click bait reporting.

      The more we accept far-right talking points as part of the ”both sides” conversations, the more the political center point will move to the right. See Overton’s window.

    12. Are they saying 49% of The Finns party consider themselves right-wing?

    13. Emergency-mall7 on

      Deeply disturbing news we’re hearing from Finland. I hope minorities are protected from far-right Finns.

      This is not surprising at all when the leftists still start throwing words like “racist” and “nazi” if someone dares to talk about the flaws of our immigration system. Without a leftist party that is also prepared to talk about negative effects of immigration a lof of people will lean to right even if they don’t agree with the economic decisions.

      my very hypocritic take: i approve right wing in countries bordering r*ssia

    16. SenpaiBunss on

      and yet the finns party (right wing) have been falling off in polls??

    17. Wise_Use1012 on

      Well well on most aquatic and aeronautical and some (fancy word for land) vehicles have fins usually one on the right and one on the left.

    18. Swimming_Average_561 on

      FYI right-wing here just means right of center. Most right-wing finns support the liberal, pro-EU center-right party. They don’t support parties like the AfD or Reform UK.
