Certainly can't think of any other nations that are or were in the EU who did shit like this in the 40's.
Speaking of which... This is 1944. The savvy history buff might know that the Winter War ended before then, and ask themselves why Karelia is burning in that case?

Oh, look at who Finland is allies with!
The difference is that Germany is ashamed of what they did during that time, and their national ethos is never doing that again.
Meanwhile, Russia idolises the imperialism of the Soviet Union, the only change is that some of their marches have swastikas as well as the hammer and sickle.
Finland had a right to defend itself against the Soviets, and it's not like the West didn't ally with a genocidal mass murderer as well.
Nazi simps, lol, just straight up using nationalist slurs while ignoring the actual context of the photo in question and having the sheer fucking GALL to compare those alliances.
All while babbling about how "they don't repent their history, not like our totally justified alliance with fucking Hitler"
Yes, I know what that sopuli.xyz means, you hypocrite.
The Winter War was one thing, trying to help the Nazis win an actively genocidal war was another.
Talk about hypocritical. Forgetting the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact are you?
Russia are Nazis through and through. Their genocide, their imperialism, their standing up of the most horrific dictators around the world.
Don't you ever forget Russia would be speaking German if not for America and keep your bullshit Nazi propaganda to yourself.
