    It’s more like the Finns never admit they helped genocide the Soviet Union alongside Nazi Germany. As a Finnish kid, you hear (a bullshit version) of the Winter War. Never about the fascist Finns helping the white Russians in the Russian Civil War, and never too much of the “Continuation War”. Hell, the only war the Finns have won is the Lapland War, and you never hear about it, because it was against the Nazis!

      Say what you want about the Germans but at least they pretend to be ashamed of their Nazi past. Finns will just straight up be like “yeah we allied with Nazis and we’d do it again if we could”
