The protester said the rally was peaceful until it suddenly got ugly. Now, as he recovers in the hospital, he's not sure if he'll get his vision back in his right eye.
Well I got tortured in a cell for three days and can’t get a single Finnish person to even accept that it happened.
They won’t talk about it either. They’ll just shut down, completely.
Just like your systems, theyre good on paper.
But do tell me how a person could feasibly manage to hurt themselves and write a fucking novel with their own blood on the cell walls while under constant supervision for “his safety”?
Afterwards when I tried getting the video of that with lawyers, it’s “vanished”, despite them originally trying to say I “vandalised the cell” by going crazy and drawing with blood.
They denied me my prescription medication, personal rights are honestly a fucking joke in Finland. We’re so bureaucratic it’s gone authoritarian.
It’s ludicrous.
I also didn’t have the mattress or the blanket, they took hose away too. Three days, lights on constantly, no explanation how long I would be here for, no medication, I didn’t eat.
Yeah, police accountability is a complete joke in Finland, much more so than in the US. There may be more overall abuses in the US, our cops generally play nice on the street. But behind closes doors?
Hell, Finnish people literally don’t understand that we actually have rights.
At one point they turned of my water in the cell. That’s literally against international laws.
I’ve tried complaining to officials and journalists and even my own family don’t believe me. My mom fucking victim blamed me for it.
In the US I would’ve definitely found a lawyer willing to fight such clear injustice (as in a golden case). I’d be a fucking millionaire for the compensations.
That, actually the supreme court of Finland deciding I was in the right and my rights were violated? Zero compensation. Fuck, no-one even let me know, I learned it from the news.
So yeah. Police accountability here is a goddamn joke.

But here, even when I do manage a small win like

I’m so sorry :(
