    Maybe should’ve read your own link there, pretty clearly explains what autonomy means 😂

    The autonomous status of Åland was affirmed by a decision made by the League of Nations in 1921 following the Åland Islands dispute. It was reaffirmed within the treaty admitting Finland to the European Union. By law, Åland is politically neutral and entirely demilitarised, and residents are exempt from conscription to the Finnish Defence Forces. Åland was granted extensive autonomy by the Parliament of Finland in the Act on the Autonomy of Åland of 1920, which was later replaced by new legislation by the same name in 1951 and 1991. The constitution of Finland defines a “constitution of Åland” by referring to this act. Åland remains exclusively Swedish-speaking by this act.[15] Although a referendum to join the European Union had been held in mainland Finland on 16 October 1994, Åland held a separate vote on 20 November as they were a separate customs jurisdiction. EU membership was approved by 73.64% of voters.[16] In connection with Finland’s admission to the European Union, a protocol was signed concerning Åland that stipulates, among other things, that provisions of the European Community Treaty shall not force a change of the existing restrictions for foreigners (i.e., persons who do not enjoy “home region rights”—hembygdsrätt—in Åland) to acquire and hold real property or to provide certain services.

        Yeah, wonder how autonomy would work if Finland was shelling civilian centers there for the past eight years.

                Wow, listening to you one would get the impression that I’m advocating for continuation of this war when I consistently advocate for the opposite. I guess expecting any logic from you would be too much to ask for.

                You’re the one who wants this war to continue, so why are you still comfortably sitting your ass in Finland while others people are dying in a war you promote. Go sign up and fight Russians in Ukraine. Slava Ukraini and all that.

                    And you don’t want the war to continue so you can go and fight with Russia? Same stupid logic.

                    Ah yes, I want the war to end so that I can go fight in a war. Exactly the level of intelligence I’ve come to expect from you.
