    Of course Russia is to blame. The blame just simply can’t be let out towards the bystanders.

      They’re the tools in this, not just bystanders. Unless you’re talking about those going to fill up their car in Russia or something, but I don’t think that’s a huge concern.

        A human tool is still a human, instead of an object. The only principle in this whole bread and circus is that no harm is caused to other beings who are not responsible.

        So we’re left to observe if we’re under a ruling class which fucks that up

          I was replying to you calling them bystanders.

              Just seemed like a strange point consider I don’t think their status as humans was in doubt. Just whether we should stop Russian action or not.

                It’s a direction the current cabinet might be inching towards. Manufactured consent

                On a larger level this won’t stop whatever the next step of escalation will be and I’m not guaranteed Finland has enough planned with the EU to figure this shit out fast.

                  Not sure where it is escalating after the border is closed.

                    We’ll see some sort of “bullying” as Niinistö phrased
