Just a reminder Finland outlawed socialist parties and suppressed SocDem parties with the military (which acted on its own disobeying the civilian government’s directive to ease on repression often) and far right militias. This after Finland had 10000 suspected communists executed without trial and threw so many others in camps. Then you had their participation in WWII (including the siege of Leningrad) which Mannerheim’s own personal objection to was due to his personal dislike of Hitler for not being of blue blood.

But don’t let that get in the way of Le wholesome Reddit belt democracy wanking.
