    1. He’s not Finnish, he’s a Swede from Finland. Please attribute the nationality correctly.
    2. He’s not defending communists. He just points out that ‘woke’ is a word used in a spiritual context, which doesn’t make sense with communism. The header of this thread is a clickbait. Read the article again.

    EDIT: He’s actually a Swedish-speaking Finnish guy, mea culpa.
