After the leaders of the Social Democrats, Greens, and Left Alliance announced that they would not form part of a future government with the radical-right Perussuomalaiset (PS),* Riikka Purra has lashed out against her party’s critics.
The latest racist talking points of the PS is excluding foreigners from getting social welfare and creating a modern Nordic apartheid state where foreigners would be legally second-class citizens.
The knee-jerk reaction by Purra is because the three parties don’t see the PS as “a normal party” and therefore do not wish to sit in the same government as her Islamophobic party.
Purra tweets: “There is nothing to hide, nothing to be ashamed of, nothing to hide about our (party’s) values. We are a nationalist and patriotic party defending Finland and Finnishness. I am very proud of our concept of humanity and our values.”
Some could read Purra’s tweet in the following manner:
“There is nothing to hide, nothing to be ashamed of, nothing to hide about our (party’s) racist values. We are a fascist and nationalistic party that promotes modern apartheid defending Finland and white privilege. I am very proud of our concept of humanity and our values that relegate non-whites to second-class status in society.”
In my opinion, the PS is a threat to our Nordic way of life.
We must do everything to challenge them in the polls this coming April.
