lmao finnish soldiers
yeah we’ve lost every war we’ve fought against russians, but sure, yeah. This will go extremely well and will definitely not backfire on us at all
But did you read this article about a fascist sniper who ate snow and probably grossly overinflated his killcount
oh buddy, i LIVED those stories. the winter war myth is a one of the two pillars of finnish society, the other being massive russophobia
Do you have any recommendations for sources on the winter war. Wikipedia lists the casualty ratio at ~1:5 in Finland’s favor, and ofc they include sick and frostbitten amongst the soviet losses and don’t appear to for the Finns.
Yeah, I would also be interested. I was speaking to someone recently who was saying the Soviet Army was so poorly prepared without skis and white camo that they were just laughably destroyed by Finland.
I found War and Peace in Finland but it seems dated and I also haven’t read through it, honestly.
wrote up some stuff in https://hexbear.net/comment/4872372, no modern literature in english atleast, sorry about that.
You’re going to want the Finnish Civil War: History, Memory, Legacy. It goes into great detail about the fascist revisionist historiography.
Thanks, babe.
