As the title says an American expat moves to rural Finland an insults the local Finnish population. Calling them pretty much everything under the sun.

  4. As someone from Michigan… I both apologize for and do not claim him 😅 and I wouldn’t exactly call Flint a part of my state I’m excited to go to when the need arises.

    Ironically, the Upper Peninsula of Michigan has one of the largest populations of Finnish immigrants/heritage in the US. Very similar in terms of weather, large quantities of lakes, etc

  7. i love how he has comments on review so he can just ignore any negative comments or stuff disagreeing or explaining stuff. and just chucking it to racism, which sure I am there is some bit he’s being pretty damn racist himself and a massive dickhead himself. like hoping kids crash and die on their mopeds or wanting to beat up a guy for calling his hometown a shithole after he called raasepori a shithole and claiming racisim on him. just seems like a massive twat all around.

    like ofc no one want’s to hang out with him and excludes him from the community when he acts like this and doesn’t even try to integrate to the society

  8. He is ranting about how misrable it where he lives. Totally okay. Not offended. Living in rural part of finland is pretty miserable specially if you don’t have any friends or family there can be pretty miserable.

  9. Often the people who struggle the most when moving to a different country, expect to get some sort of unique treatment for the fact they are not from the place originally. When nobody is “wowed” by the fact they are from abroad and do more effort to connect with them, they get upset and pout.

    This doesn’t seem to be a much different case. It’s not different than when a Finn moves to a new area, they don’t get a red carpet rolled out for them, most people don’t give a hoot. It’s far easier to adjust after getting rid of the chip on one’s own shoulder.

    The local community doesn’t really owe you any special treatment, it’s up to you to adjust to your surroundings, if the community does something to make you feel more welcome, that’s up to them. However, the primary responsibility in terms of adjusting rests on the individual.

  10. Meanwhile an african-american from South Carolina moved to Sodankylä and is just having the best time of his life.

    Posts on youtube as well.

    I like to think the attitude you bring is the energy you get. I’d not want to deal with this Michigan asshat if I was from Raseborg either, maybe it’s something in the water in Flint, Michigan…
