If anyone wants to know, "Beweglichertorpfostenkrieg" is literally just "moving goal posts war" disguised as a german compound word.

As a German, this word was compounded incorrectly anyway. Adjectives don't get compounded. So it would be "Beweglicher Torpfostenkrieg"

On the other hand in Finnish that's can be one word: maalitolpansiirtosota. No sense implied.
