An article,
oddly enough from a Chinese source, notes that a Finnish lawmaker has been fined and subjected to a court order to take down offensive posts on social media.
Te Oulu District Court of Finland on Thursday sentenced Sebastian Tynkkynen, a member of the Finnish Parliament, to pay a 50-day fine, about 4,050 euros, for anti-Muslim agitation, Finish media reported.
The verdict applied to the text and images shared by Tynkkynen from the populist Finns Party in his Facebook account in 2016. Tynkkynen, aged 30, posted pictures of alleged perpetrators of terrorist attacks and stated in the title that "they have one thing in common: they all serve Allah."
And, what's wrong with that? Given that Muslims are a tiny percentage of the population, noticing that all terrorist suspects are Muslim seems to be rational.
According to the verdict, Tynkkynen's viewpoint of the Islamic group was a "deliberate, racist and disparaging" hate speech, which was generally directed at all Muslims, and likely to incite contempt and even hatred based on religious intolerance toward the Islamic group.
Is noticing that Chinese people tend to have black hair a comment 'directed at all Chinese people'?
Therefore, the district court ordered Tynkkynen to remove the posts from social media and pay the fine.
This was not the first verdict Tynkkynen received. He was convicted of ethnic agitation against Muslims and sentenced a 50-day fine in January 2017 for another posting which claimed "the less Muslims in Finland, the safer."
He is correct. Muslims cause crime, including sexual crime. Hungary and Czechia do not have muslim rape gangs, unlike Sweden and England.
