Feels refreshing to see news about Finland pop up that are not about Marin’s partying scandal. There’s a reason I haven’t read domestic news actively for at least few weeks.
Really, it’s so popular in Finland? Is it so surprising to people that she is a human, and like every human she is having a party from time to time?

The topic dominated many headlines, be it tabloids or websites.

Yes! The party however appeared to be more raunchy and there were rumors about drugs being used. Marin even had to do a drug test that was negative.

A story about a party is a great way to distract people from real problems Finland faces like food and energy shortages.
Clickbait articles == $$, sadly.

Says the prime minister of the country who allied with Nazi Germany in WW2.
WHATABAUT!

It’s not just the whataboutism. It’s the deliberate mischaracterization of Finnish involvement in WW2. But the fact that Finland did fight alongside Nazi Germany against the USSR, even if for very different objectives, is enough to form an effective propaganda bludgeon.

This is a good thing™, and it’s nice to see an article that’s not about her social life.

Too beautiful to be “peoples” leader actually. :)
