Absolutely dire news. However it’s important to publish these kind of news as simply anecdotal replies to the recurring question how racist or LGBTQ+ friendly country Finland is are just anecdotal.
This current economical situation of ours has surely added even more tension. And whats good to acknowledge, racism in Finland has diversified in pretty short time. It’s not anymore just that ‘classic’ meaning natives against immigrants, it can also be immigrants against immigrants or immigrants against natives.
TLDR: Maybe still a year ago I too would have answered (in my Capital area bubble) not that much racism going on. That is not the answer that I would give anymore, sadly.

Not surprised, it feels like in 2020s an entire western society has just turned into a hateful social media slave.
