For the same reason English oppressed Irish.

Us West Finns from Lapland and Ostobothnia don't mind a little Swedish oppression if you know what I mean ;)
Praise OODIN our ancestor! Fuck the Finno-Ugrics! Onwards to VALHALLA
14 million people on the island of Great Britain have some recentish Irish ancestry, the Irish love it. Can the same be said for Sweden - have many Finns moved to Sweden over the decades?
but we didn't.
Many. It's only in the last decade or two that immigration from Finland has declined, as it has with migration between all the Nordic countries. Now they favour the continent, America, or Great Britain.
Finns are the biggest immigrant group in Sweden. Same can't be said for Irish in England.
Actually no. About 2k Finns move to Sweden every year and a similar number(almost all Sweden Finns) move from Sweden to Finland.
Only 700 Finns move to US every year.
Personally I encourage especially Finland-Swedes moving to Sweden.
FAKE
>t. Tommy Robinson
Swedes are evil by nature.
>Personally I encourage especially Finland-Swedes moving to Sweden.
Nonono. I love Finland-Swedes. That's why they have to stay in Finland, keep their culture alive. Too many of them have historically responded to percieved discrimination by just moving to Sweden. Just like the Estonia-Swedes back in the day. How come only Rikssvenskar have any balls?
No, they mustn't. Fuck off with your imperialism.
>Why did Sweden oppress Finland so brutally/horrifically in history?
In no way is any of that true.
Fennoswedes are Swedes living in Finland
what are Finns living in Sweden called?
Stop making threads about finns and swedes. Its proven by now we will never be able to coexist or come along. Swedes should leave us alone and we just dont reply to each other anymore

hmmmm, do they have a unique dialect?
>In NORWAY is any of that true.
Yes. It's cute. Has adorable vowels.
nvm, that's their accent, sorry.
There's no imperialism. They are a unique culture, that will survive easiest in Finland. If they're in Sweden they'll just assimilate. Not to mention that they are in no way an extention of the Swedish state. They are Finnish, just as much as you.
Mannerheim doesn't look swedish at all t b h
Especially get that feeling from the smaller eyes and the shape of the head.
IT'S FUCKING UNFAIR THAT WE HAVE TO STUDY SWEDISH IN SCHOOLS BUT THEY HAVE NOT TO STUDY FINNISH
????
Yes they do.
Wtf is not true
Fug, my bad. Thought you were talking about fennoswedes, not finns in sweden
They aren't as Finnish as ethnic Finns, just because the language they speak is a byproduct of Swedish imperialism.
The Irish aren't considered as foreign or immigrants under UK law.
Sweden has 200,000 more Finns than we have Fennoswedes and no, Finnish isn't a mandatory or official language in Sweden.
So the Irish who speak English as their first language instead of Gaelic are somehow less Irish? Is that what you're saying?!
Official minority language... That counts for something, ne?
yes. Ethnically, Ireland is dead.
yes master
Not really because most of them are very recent immigrants. People started moving to Sweden from all over Finland in the 60's in search of work. Tornedalians however have their own dialect
en.wikipedia.org
Very much so, yes.
No, it isn't comparable to the status of Swedish in Finland.
>Very much so, yes.
Linguistics isn't the only thing that determines ethnicity, y'know. Speaking the language of another country can say as little as nothing about which country you're part of and have heritage in. It comes down to the individual
You're Sweden's bitch and you like it
Do you love Aland?
We do, Finns don't.
Your heritage is also an critical factor, I'm not disputing that. What I am saying is that if you have Finnish blood and speak the language of those associated with said blood, you are objectively more Finnish than somebody with Finnish heritage who doesn't.
Kvenland when
At least Irish people don't label themselves Irish Englishmen just because they speak the language :^)
Why should we have anything but disdain for Åland? They still have racist laws that prohibit Finns from buying property there. The UN notified us some time back that we should do a better job at supervising the rights of Finns in Åland.
>No, it isn't comparable to the status of Swedish in Finland.
Whether or not it's mandatory in Sweden actually got nothing at all to do with whether or not it's mandatory in Finland, they're completely separate matters.
Oh I think you'll find you're mistaken my Finnish friend
No, Finlandswedes are the ones who put these laws into place because they're overrepresented in every branch of government. They're Finland's Jews, basically.
why are they doing this
They (Swedish People's Party of Finland) are following the teachings of their ideological father.

Do Swedes still treat Finns like genetic garbage? There is a lot of Finn bullying in this video, one girl even says Finnish women are so ugly
Yes, anti-Finnish racism is very prevalent in Sweden.
wew, okay this seems to be a problem down there in finland, i live by the border and we all get along here 2bh
honestly, as a fenno-swede its just some generic memes but no one in southern sweden knows shit about finland
Wow, that pic
Pure? Do you say you're Finnish when you go abroad?
i identify as a swede but i call myself a fenno-swede, up here in sweden where i live (border to finland) we speak Meänkieli ( though i never learned it)
i've heard from some "true-swedes" that they dont consider the part of sweden where i live as sweden but as finland
When I went there I spoke only finnish to everyone to remind them who owns their shitty little islands
People in Finland with "finnish blood" have spoken Swedish for centuries. Finland-Swedish isn't a new thing, and is very different from the language Swedish citizens speak.
Yes they do. Theyre obsessed with how shitty finland is in real life and on int while none of them has been to finland or met a finn other than some old hobo wandered to sweden. And when they get btfo'd they claim its just banter. Disgusting place and people
No we don't.
All we get taught is that Finland is due east, its capital is Helsingfors, they have 5 million alcoholic inhabitants and that they were part of us until evul russia took them.
I had the privilege to have a teacher who actually included the Winter War in to our WW2 studies. But I didn't learn of the civil war and the rest of the history in the country until I personally looked it up.
But having to learn Swedish is a waste of time though to be honest. There is no longer any need to move over here for work and fenno swedes mostly just exist in certain parts of the country. Kinda dumb that its still here.
>they dont consider the part of sweden where i live as sweden but as finland
That's cause finns lived quite far into the area that's northern 'Sweden' now.
You sure showed them
KVENLAND WHEN
A reminder that Mannerheim is 0% ethnic Finnish. He is of 100% Swedish and German immigrant descent.
...
Fuck off. SFP are representing and protecting Finland-Swedes as a minority group in a country that is quite hostile towards them. They particularly need protection from Perus, who are following the teachings of their ideological father.
Does it matter?

You don't need to learn it, just pass the tests.

I don't claim to be a hero, but somebody had to put them in their place.

Pretty sure it's Vennamo, lad.
Welcome to Sup Forums
No no, of course. I just used that pic as a kindness to Finns. Some of you always complain of rudeness from Swede posters, and i thought a picture of your old best ally would cheer you up :)
Reminder that Finland was in the Axis.
Freudenthal was evil, after all his racial theories is the kind of stuff that Nazis based their ideology off of. What did the founder of True Finns do that is even comparable with Freudenthal's shit?
what side was sweden on?
Neutral. 200 years of uncompromising neutrality. Quite lucrative during the world wars.
thats a win/win situation, glorious.
>They still have racist laws that prohibit Finns from buying property there.
>Year of our lord 2017
>Still falling for the "Finns can't buy property on Åland" meme
Anyone can apply for hembygdsrätt after living on Åland for 5 years. All you have to prove is that you understand basic swedish when applying for it.
If you are born on Åland or moved there before your twelfth birthday you get i automatically. Even if your're a filthy fingol :^)
I've even met Alandic people whose mother-tounge is Finnish.
Åland will never be Finnish speaking.
I just wish they manned up and voted themselves out of Finland.
It would improve the position of of Finnish speaking Finns by more than a lot.
Only losers would be Beach Swedes.
>Finns can't buy property on Åland meme
>filthy fingol
Svecoman propagandist spotted
We're not giving them away for naught, they'll either get Finnicized or we'll get sth of equal value in return.
Letting them go would be beneficial for our economy as they wouldn't be a burden for us anymore.
Only problem might be double citizenship. If they still got to vote for RKP after independence they could still attack Finnish speakers every election.
the requirements are still true though :^)
actually also if you've lived there for several periods that add up to a total of 7 years you're also eligable.
Why do you hate Åland man :(
You dont hate sips do you?
tfw Sup Forums recognizes Åland as rightful swedish clay
Binland pls integrate us more, im tired of all the swedes living here
Every relevant country has an oppressed country.
For Sweden, it's Finland.
For England, it's Ireland.
For America, it's Mexico.
For France, it's Belgium.
For Holland, it's Belgium too.
For Russia, it's Ukraine.
For Morocco, it's Spain.
etc
Non relevant countries don't have an oppressed country.
Canada doesn't have an oppressed country.
Tajikistan doesn't have an oppressed country.
etc
This whole thread gave me autism.
>attack Finnish speakers every election
Is that what you think SFP:s goal and purpose is: to make life harder for Finnish speakers, out of spite or something? Christ, what is this mentality?
>Åland will never be Finnish speaking.
You sure, no shit? I've heard Itä-Suomen will never be Swedish speaking, who could have known?
>We're not giving them away for naught, ... we'll get sth of equal value in return.
Never gonna happen. Unless you start cracking down on them hard, forcibly assimilating them using Skåne-tactics, the Swedish state won't do anything. If Ålanders ever want it hard enough they'll start with protests, electing reunification parties, maybe start with terrorism. Eventually they'll either pressure government into a referendum or hold an unofficial one. Then we'll just wait for internal and international pressure to force you to give it up. We won't even have to occupy it or fund militias.
>Is that what you think SFP:s goal and purpose is: to make life harder for Finnish speakers, out of spite or something? Christ, what is this mentality?
Um, yes...?
They don't even advocate anything rational like regional bilingualism that wouldn't complicate Finns lives. They keep roleplaying that they are still 13% of the population and thus a meaningful part of our country. They're not and never will be.
>electing reunification parties
Those kind of parties do not exist. There's only one "independence" party.
>maybe start with terrorism
god I wish they did this, we'd have an excuse to genocide them
finnish revisionist history

>t. university student with 6 years of swedish classes behind him that still can't speak it
I have 4 years of French classes and all I learned was that French people are in fact assholes, even if you speak their language.
Je ne regrette rien.
