A reminder to anyone reading that if Americans come here to “flee Trump” this is the kind of crap they will bring with them.
That’s America for ya.
What I hear they removed one picture featuring Stinky, but Stinky is still seen in other pictures in the exhibition. So the character was NOT removed, just one somehow problematic picture (problematic according to someone). No additional info is available.
Unfortunately, that kind of rubbish happening there doesn’t surprise me at all.
The Americans are already bringing their absurd tipping culture to places like Germany, France, Espagne, etc…. I hope it doesn’t make its way eastward. There was once a server in Frankfurt that asked if I wanted to leave a tip and I looked/blinked at him thinking “wait, what ?!”
This says so much about the American mindset. Everything is about race or sexuality, some “otherness” that they have a need to mix into everything.
Stuff just being what it is, without all these extras, is impossible.
I don’t think that a single Finnish person has ever thought that Stinky somehow symbolises a black or dark skinned person. He has no race at all. He is Stinky. A complex cartoon character created by a gay woman and loved by all. https://www.moomin.com/en/characters/stinky/
Stinky first appeared in Tove Jansson’s stories in 1954 – I don’t think it’s an analogy to racial minorities
Jeez I hate Americans so much. (Say this as an American who lives in Finland) everything is about race and diversity it’s honestly at a point where it’s performative that it’s tiring.
Haisuli causing chaos and havoc once again
As if the authorities there actually give a fuck about racism.
Wonder if the Librarian in Brooklyn thought it was blackface from 1950s
So…basically someone didn’t take a few minutes to research this and created a bunch of nonsense drama and fodder for anti-woke idiots.
In this case the idiots are right.
Amurica is a racistic country.
I mean the Americans are also calling an ad about jeans “fascist propaganda” lol
Tbh, I don’t see why people here get offended. If it’s deemed incompatible for current cultural settings in the US, then they probably did the right thing.
If anything, the reaction here looks very… American.
Lots of anti Americanism in this thread even as Nordic and Finnish culture is becoming far more popular in the states.
Blame the people all you want. You don’t know what it’s like to live in a coprotocracy and I’m so happy for you for that.
