Black woman targeted by racist abuse in Finland over festival role

Reply in thread

Finnish guy here. The whole nation has been thrown in the middle of racist debate in the past year. One of the ruling political parties is a far right populist party who have strifed to normalize racism while they're in power. There are actual nazi affiliated people there. It's a fucking shitshow where they lie to coax normal people into rage against immigrants and it seems to be working with those poor suckers. It hasn't been a good year, far from it, but at least common everyday racism has been outed and is condemned by the majority.

I have that! Sneezed twice today because of bright sunlight. It can sometimes also be triggered voluntarily by looking at a bright light. You can't trigger it multiple times in a row though. I suspect this is because sinuses need to recover from the shock of the sneeze.
