It's super ironic that Suur-Suomi or Karjala takaisin is mostly a fantasy in the minds of nationalist fascists when Karelians were discriminated against when they fled the war back in the day, and reclaiming the territories now would grow the Finnish population with over 600 thousand Russian immigrants.
NonCredibleDefense
A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

We don't actually want it back, thanks. A very poor zone without our expected infrastructure, and no Finnish people. It would just be friggin' expensive and it's not like we have a lack of land here. The average population density in Finland is 19 inhabitants per square kilometre (49/sq mi), making it the third most sparsely populated country in Europe.
So nay to reclaiming something lost 80 years ago.
Yeah, exactly same as why Poland wouldn't want Królewiec, it's full of ruskies
Yes, that was the gist of my comment as well
Only if we get a few billion€ from the UN or something, to rebuild the area to at least some standards.
Oh and someone needs to figure our where all the ryssä goes. Because obviously they cant stay.
If the plan involves ethnic cleansing and the UN suddenly becoming wealthy, it may not be a good plan.
Yeah, thats what I'm saying. Getting Karelia back is a bad plan.
It really is. All the people who unironically want it back really haven't thought things through.
It's not ethnic cleansing if you're US ally, merely self-defense
Why can't they stay? Karelia would get awesome again, there would be plenty of jobs.
Because then a future putin can say hes invading to protect russians.
And providing social care etc to them would bankrupt the country
Oh and someone needs to figure our where all the ryssä goes
I have some ideas regarding that but they're against the instance's code of conduct and I'm pretty sure most of them are illegal
"Finnish Him!"
But I thought Russia was super scared of NATO.
Murmansk or bust.
Putin: Wait, no, irredentism is wrong!
