I really did not want to get involved as well, but Finland (together
with Germany) also participated in the horrific Siege of Leningrad which
lead to immeasurable suffering of its population:

This is something that many modern Russians living in Saint-Petersburg
(ex-Leningrad) can relate to. Am I going to blame Linus or the Finnish
nation for that? Of course not! Because I am not an idiot or a racist.
And I can use something that Linus has mentioned previously - brains.
Can you please do the same, Linus?
This really turned ugly, please stop trying to use history as your moral
compass. Also, if you'd like to place a collective guilt on the whole
group of people for past or present wrongdoings I would like to quote
the words of famous Holocaust survivor and psychiatrist Viktor Frankl:
"Collective guilt does not exist":

As an avid history lover, you've seem to forgot, that Finland fought
on Nazi side.
So yeah, we're well aware you don't like Russians, unless they're in
concentration camps.
Which is exactly what you do now: segragate, based on nationality.
Strip of credits and names.
Once a nazi - always a nazi. So, fuck you.

I really don't want to get involved, but this misinformation really
goes too far.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finland_in_World_War_II
provides context. And it does sound familiar. Turns out the Finnish
defended
themselves against invasion from the Soviet Union. Sounds familiar ?
Guess it's
the same as those alleged Nazis in Ukraine nowadays.
