Jussi Mäkinen wrote that Finnish immigration discussion, in his experience, had focused on the need for workers in low-paying jobs and funding for the pension system. He criticized that councilor Meri was condemned for speaking about what she thought. Mäkinen also pondered whether conclusions could be drawn from the names of those accepted into the Swedish-speaking medical faculty. Mäkinen criticized Marin's government's decision to raise the compulsory schooling age to 18. According to him, the reform had provided state-funded textbooks and school transportation for upper middle-class high school students, but at the same time enrolled youths in education who might not attend classes. He mentioned hearing from acquaintances in vocational schools in the capital region that, for example, selected students in electrical studies had not showed up for school even after the second academic year had started. Mäkinen also claimed that educational institutions received funding based on the names on student lists, even if the student did not show up. Mäkinen wrote that the proportion of those completing secondary education had risen from about 77.9 percent to 79.4 percent among those young people who turned 20 by the spring of that year. He challenged Meri to publish a positive update when the students on the list would have graduated. Mäkinen estimated that nearly 90 percent of those accepted to high school had Finnish backgrounds and nearly 90 percent of those accepted to vocational schools had immigrant backgrounds. He also shared that his friend, a Master's degree holder in business sciences who had come to Finland as a refugee from Kosovo, had said that they had learned better Finnish on a football team than in a classroom with immigrant-background students. Finally, Mäkinen reminded of a previous discussion where it was deemed important to transfer Finnish children from their local school to a school where the majority of students belonged to the S2 language group. He wrote that the backgrounds of the names on vocational school student lists could not yet be discussed. #maahanmuutto #koulutus #suomi (translated)

Henri Vanhanen thanked Charles Lindbergh for addressing military issues based on facts. He assessed that Sanna Marin's demand to shoot down every Russian plane violating NATO airspace did not hold up under closer scrutiny, even though it sounded resolute. Vanhanen wrote that Russia's repeated violations of airspace should not be underestimated, but shooting down an armed fighter during peacetime would be a different scale of solution than intercepting a drone that has invaded airspace. According to him, it would be essential to assess whether it was a short violation or a deep incursion into Finnish territory that disregarded warnings and posed a real military threat. Vanhanen warned that shooting down a fighter could lead to the deaths of Russian soldiers and trigger a chain of events whose consequences Finland would not decide alone. He also viewed that Russia aimed to provoke and test the West's reactions, and it should not be allowed to dictate the timing or conditions for an escalation in the military situation. According to him, credible defense required both the readiness to use force and discretion in its application. https://t.co/uT4UMwcIib #turvallisuuspolitiikka #Venäjä #Nato (translated)

Arto Koskelo wrote that Soviet propaganda depicted Israel as a stronghold of American imperialism and that Zionism was portrayed as a racist and imperialistic ideology, which was sometimes likened to fascism.

Matias Turkkila wrote that the leader of the French left, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, had spoken about the end of capitalism at an event and said that a socialism based on white Catholic workers would not be realized in France. Turkkila compared Mélenchon to Finland's Li Andersson. According to Turkkila, Métapolitique interpreted the comment to mean that Mélenchon considered the old socialism focused on white trade union workers to be dead and wanted to build a foundation based on immigration and cultural diversity instead. He also mentioned that 69 percent of France's Muslims had voted for Mélenchon's LFI party in the first round of the presidential elections. According to Turkkila, The Jewish Chronicle and The Telegraph were among the critics who described this as an opportunistic alliance with the growing Muslim voter base instead of the traditional working class. He asked if this scenario sounded familiar. #sosialismi #Ranska #monimuotoisuus (translated)

Is Representative Tuppurainen listening? I have some questions. When Representative Anna Kontula tried to break into Gaza, did any other leftist try to break into Israel as a counter? And if no one tried, is Finland's position in the UN Security Council in danger? #Suomi #YK #Politiikka (translated)
