• Finnish professor on Purra and the state of Finnish press

    From TT@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jul 16 03:13:44 2023
    Says that Finnish press is undermining democracy. A good write-up, a
    departure from official line:

    https://timo-vihavainen.blogspot.com/2023/07/roskajournalismi-ja-politiikka.html

    I must agree, Finnish media is nowadays biased agenda-journalism...
    which lately has been focused on toppling the democratically elected government. It didn't use to be this way. It was news and information,
    not all left/woke propaganda article after article.

    I remember the time when Helsingin Sanomat editorial was massive one
    page deep dive which took 15-20 minutes to read with thought. Now it's
    like 1 minute while you learn nothing but writer's politicized opinions.
    Just sad.

    Fake news?



    I'm fascinated with the idea of "fake news". With respect, I've going to
    ask some possibly provocative questions.

    First, to me, "fake news" is either: a) a story that is mostly or
    completely fabrication but reported without editorial comment; or b) a
    story like "a" but including editorial comment or c) a factual story,
    but with editorial comment.

    These are increasingly common and fake news is employed by all sides of
    the political spectrum at this point, so that I NEVER immediately
    believe any story,  however reported, or by whom, that runs contrary to
    either my experience or to my flavor of common sense. And in a pinch,
    I'll accept the fact that I don't have sufficient information to run
    against personal experience or common sense, so I make no pronouncements
    in these areas.

    So we can compare, e.g., 1) the loss of the Titan submersible, 2) the
    oddly timed declaration of "Bidenomics", 3) the current state of the war
    in Ukraine, 4) the discovery of cocaine in the white house, or the 5)
    main reasons for the expanding number of homeless on the US west coast.

    And I'd evaluate the present general tenor of the stories as:

    1 - objective reporting of a likely actual event;

    2 - invented PR; some of it is FN  "b"

    3 - largely objectively unknowable (fog of war), but editorialized so FN "b"

    4 -  an objectively reported story of likely factual event

    5 - objectively reported events that are heavily editorialized FN "c"

    Then the triage is how important to your immediate personal security,
    immediate or intermediate financial well being. You must subjectively
    decide these; no one can help you, and it's likely to be different for
    for the various individuals.

    So I'd say I can safely shitcan 1 in its entirety; I need to follow 2 to
    see if/how it affects my financial positions; I need to merely keep an
    eye on 3 to see if the war engulfs other outside polities; just laugh 4
    at the superficial attempt to bury the story, but try to assess how many
    people in the US it has successfully fooled; and carefully note various editorial claims and objective stories, compare closely with what I can
    observe daily, and see what ways I can come up with to evade or minimize
    the effects of the large numbers of homeless and the rise in property crime.

    No. She, and nobody else, has said what she has said. That she has had
    to apologise, is a tacit acknowledgement that her views are at
    loggerheads with the views of the rest. It's as real as it gets.

    It's clear that without the (token) bending of the knee she would now be without her job. The fakeness "argument" is just the standard rock-paper-scissors excuse of those that wish to turn this into
    something it isn't.

    This is emblematic of what Tiny of Finland once recognised as the
    essence of the PerSu party. It is a mono-agenda party with bottom of the
    barrel talent. The two of course go hand in hand. A piece of cork that
    rises to the PerSu surface wouldn't rise to the surface elsewhere. We're
    seeing the Darwinian results of that in both cases we have now had.

    Fair enough. But the press is still making a mountain out of a molehill
    with apparent agenda.

    No. She, and nobody else, has said what she has said. That she has had

    There was some outright fake out of context reporting, the initial
    source being a possible Russian troll on Twitter.

    There was also an article(s) which made highly politicized false statements.

    There was also reporting on a citizen's address, which didn't require
    valid identification process, and some of the signatories appeared to be
    a Russian bot. There's no way such address would gather 100k signatories
    in couple days. So there's actually some concern that this "fire Purra" campaign could have been be started - or at least helped - by the
    Russian intelligence operatives.

    It's clear that without the (token) bending of the knee she would now be without her job. The fakeness "argument" is just the standard rock-paper-scissors excuse of those that wish to turn this into
    something it isn't.


    I think that if she hadn't commented on the original tweet, there would
    be no "scandal".

    This is emblematic of what Tiny of Finland once recognised as the
    essence of the PerSu party.

    You don't have to call me names, now do you?

    No, Persut do have talent. The education level is high.
    There are a couple questionable characters yes.

    Aside from doctorates, for example the dreaded Wille Rydman, new
    minister of economic affairs got his masters degree from university in
    two years. That's exceptional.
    ...A very smart man, from what I can tell from his interviews. Was
    apparently falsely accused, too.

    There is an old Finnish saying: Helsingin Sanomat is Finland's
    Pravda.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pravda

    Sanoma-konserni, i.e. the cursed company that owns Helsingin
    Sanomat, Iltasanomat and vauva.fi (the biggest online
    discussion forum in Finland), seriously restricts Free Speech
    in Finland

    On vauva.fi, probably the most popular discussion area is
    called "Aihe Vapaa" in Finnish. It means "Here the topis is
    free", meaning that you should be allowed to start your
    own discussion threads about any topics you want.

    In reality, vauva.fi is heavily moderated in a real Soviet
    Union, DDR and North Korean fashion. "Unwanted opinions" are
    quickly swept away by the ruthless moderators. No
    explanations are given, the unwanted opinions just vanish
    quickly.

    Only the opinions that Sanoma-konserni supports, or somehow
    benefits from, are allowed.

    Things are going towards worse and worse. Aamulehti, a
    very big newspaper in Finland, was recently bought by
    Sanoma-konserni. Now Sanoma-konserni controls that
    media, too.

    Not long ago, we used to a have a newspaper called
    Metro in Helsinki, Finland. It cost nothing to the
    readers and was given away for free at the entrances
    to the Helsinki Subway. It got very popular, so
    Sanoma-konserni bought it too in order to gain
    control of one more media in Finland.

    This is their webpage where they openly brag that they
    are the "biggest commecial media in Finland":

    https://www.sanoma.fi

    Sanoma-konserni is a very despicable company that is ruled
    by sickos who advocate heavy censorship. Free Speech in
    Finland has absolutely no value to them, they just hate it.

    Pravda is what they admire and want to emulate.

    The acquisition of Aamulehti and Metro is a sign that
    their agenda is to gain full control of more and more of
    their competition in Finland. After having done so, they
    can publish their own propanda everywhere.

    Word.

    I used to think recently that at least Iltalehti - which I regard as
    rather trash magazine - was a rather unbiased MSM source. Well, that
    thought evaporated quickly with this Purra scandal reporting.

    Fake news?

    No. She, and nobody else, has said what she has said. That she has
    had to apologise, is a tacit acknowledgement that her views are at
    loggerheads with the views of the rest. It's as real as it gets.


    There was some outright fake out of context reporting, the initial
    source being a possible Russian troll on Twitter.

    There was also an article(s) which made highly politicized false
    statements.

    There was also reporting on a citizen's address, which didn't require
    valid identification process, and some of the signatories appeared to
    be a Russian bot. There's no way such address would gather 100k
    signatories in couple days. So there's actually some concern that
    this "fire Purra" campaign could have been be started - or at least
    helped - by the Russian intelligence operatives.

    LOL. Stolen elections, Russkie operatives, ... Can't you at least be
    original, FFS! You must be spending a lot of time in these PerSu boards.

    I used to think recently that at least Iltalehti - which I regard as

    Both Iltasanomat and Iltalehti are tabloids and trash
    just like Hymy and Seiska magazines. But it makes sense
    to persist and read what they write. The reason is that
    *lots of people* read those daily, and we have to keep
    an eye on what kind of trash the media is trying to push
    into their minds.

    Timothy Leary warned us about this. He quoted Marshall
    McLuhan who said something like the following:

    "Who controls the media, is programming your mind and
    programming your brain"

    5-6 years ago Iltalehti still had at least *some* articles
    that were good. It was the only media in Finland that
    wrote something positive about weed when cannabis was
    legalized in California in 2017.

    Today 99% of Iltalehti is trash.

    Fake news?
    No. She, and nobody else, has said what she has said. That she has had
    to apologise, is a tacit acknowledgement that her views are at
    loggerheads with the views of the rest. It's as real as it gets.

    It's clear that without the (token) bending of the knee she would now be without her job. The fakeness "argument" is just the standard rock-paper-scissors excuse of those that wish to turn this into
    something it isn't.

    no, it's just the spin some journo has put on what she wrote. She attacked back a Somali who said he wanted to kill her and now you're whinging cos of that and only cos he was Somali, if he'd been French or something you wouldn't care and neither would
    the journo. It like last week when Brietbart etc. were saying Mike Pence said "it's not my concern" when asked about the decline of USA cities compared to giving money to Ukraine.

    This is emblematic of what Tiny of Finland once recognised as the
    essence of the PerSu party. It is a mono-agenda party with bottom of the barrel talent. The two of course go hand in hand. A piece of cork that
    rises to the PerSu surface wouldn't rise to the surface elsewhere. We're seeing the Darwinian results of that in both cases we have now had.

    their results as a government can't be any worse than what Sanna Marin did etc. The social disaster of unchecked, WEF ordered mass immigration etc. have done previously. Just look at the difference between Trump's USA and Biden.

    I swear it was not.

    Are you a prank?

    Not at all.

    Do you know what Sanoma-konserni is? In addition to owning many printd medias and web medias, they own a huge televion channel called Nelonen ("Four").

    It is the biggest commercial TV channel in Finland and like other
    Sanoma medias, it pushes out Sanoma's propaganda in addition to some incredibly stupid reality TV shows.

    Are you located in Sweden?

    I know perfectly well what happened in Sweden. For many years, some
    Swedes tried to criticize immigration related issues in Sweden. They
    were either silenced or labeled as totally crazy right-wing
    extremists.

    But they did have some valid points. Now that Sweden is suffering from continuous violence on the streets, bombs go off and people get shot,
    more and more people realize that maybe the critics were not all wrong after all?

    As far as I know, some Swedish politicians have even admitted that
    they should have allowed Free Speech. They have apologized for their mistakes. They had no options since your country is quite fucked-up indeed!

    We will not let that happen in Finland.

    Max is back!

    COOL!!

    Definitely not. Our government is supposed to represent us all equally, regardless of ethnicity, religion, ... We can not have any lingering
    doubts about that. Any.

    yes we can cos a government never equally represents everyone, ever, that's why they get voted out. Also why do you keep pretending like the entire world was wonderful when the previous party was in power, it really wasn't, you had tons of problems. That'
    s why Brexit and Trump were so good, for 50 years we kept being told how the "experts" always know better about everything yet the result has been 911, the 2007 crash, insane full-scale Kalergi which has brought social nightmare and terrorism to streets
    amongst tons of other disasters. These "experts" really aren't that good, they're no different to regular folks that are in this new Purra party. It's just you are scared to change the status quo at all, just admit it. Kalergi was right!

    Fake news?
    No. She, and nobody else, has said what she has said. That she has had
    to apologise, is a tacit acknowledgement that her views are at
    loggerheads with the views of the rest. It's as real as it gets.

    It's clear that without the (token) bending of the knee she would now be
    without her job. The fakeness "argument" is just the standard
    rock-paper-scissors excuse of those that wish to turn this into
    something it isn't.

    no, it's just the spin some journo has put on what she wrote.

    Go read what she has written yourself. There's a bunch of it. They are
    not quoted out of context or anything, all them words are hers. In any civilised country her potty mouth would already have had her fired.

    The "Scripta" blog in itself is/was a congregation of dregs. Anybody who
    even shows up in a place like that is implicated.

    their results as a government can't be any worse than what Sanna Marin did etc. The social disaster of unchecked, WEF ordered mass immigration

    Lol.
