These videos were originally made in 1999. Kummeli guys are hilarious😅

[@amiloaa]

Mutta totta vielä/nyt myös

[@oggamer735]

He really did say that 😂😂 that is real humour. There should never be any cencorship on comedy or free speech.

[@MaaZeus]

Indeed. And that was the joke because the Prime Minister himself is not a racist, he is just a simpleton who speaks out what he thinks and hears without a filter. It is his partners who are corrupt AF scumsbags and the N-word is the least of their crimes they commit, or at least plan to. 😂

[@js0988]

The funny thing is that when you call people who like to use the N word for racists or Nazis then they all of a sudden get really butthurt and offended. Seems like this "free speech" only goes one way. 😘

[@kimanthoni6377]

He said negroes not niggers, there is a difference.

[@esaedvik]

Freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences. That's terrible take.

[@Derbixrace]

@@esaedvik There should not be any consequences for comedy even if its racist, sexist etc..

[@Alexandros.Mograine]

This is my favourite skit from Kummeli. Great guys from my hometown!

[@markkujantunen8298]

The prime minister here is the sort of guy who should NEVER go off script. lol

[@SimoExMachina2]

"Pena" is a nickname for people with names like "Pentti" or "Pertti" or some such.

[@Timonen76]

1:10 You should all know that this comedy TV series started to be made in the early 1990s, so these clips are also from more than 30 years ago, and they should be evaluated according to the criteria and standards of that time, and not really post-censored after 30 years to modern standards!

[@tm5123]

Yeah, lately we have decided that because of American driven slavery, and American social norms, white people in different regions of the world should be required to follow American social norms and be party to American sins that do not die with the people who comitted them, in how they use words. Because if America had slavery, people in Europe who never had slavery, should also be treated as if they had slaves, and instantly remove a word that is just a derivative from the Spanish word for black. It's so dumb.

[@petegromov9037]

30 years ago this was comedy. Today it is cold reality, with several confessed racists running the government.

[@ArchieArpeggio]

Ha ha! Such a classics 😁.

[@marko4557]

Yes this is real thing, made by group named Kummeli, published by YLE (Finnish broadcasting company)... made in 1999 when there was no cencorship in Finnish TV. You should check also "Aziz the compact fighter" from Kummeli group.

[@Mustanaamio7]

Finland actually used to have really harsh censorship but it didn't concern certain offensive words.

[@petripuurunen2491]

From most of the parts - this is truth about finnish politics.

[@SomeFinnishGuy]

Translation has a few cultular problems. Finnis language is quite neutral. Neekeri was often used word even early 2000´s. It just term dark skin people. It was stereotypical and not good at all now ofcourse. There were no racist mood. Like term "man is dark as night" My granny use this word. I have to say that, if finnish speaking want to harrasment and insult somebody racist style, we are TOP3 about that. But we olso find out are separate, that who just use old stupid terms and who is total jackass

[@MaaZeus]

Yeah technically the work "neekeri" in Finnish, even though it is rooted in the English version of the N-word, is not meant to be offensive. And it doesn't exactly help that we do have an offensive version too "Nekru" which on the other hand sounds more like the neutral word Negro. Our language has them backwards basicallty! But these days both Finnish words are frowned upon.

[@oh2mp]

@@MaaZeus it isn't rooted from English. It has come from Swedish "neger" which is originated from Latin word "nigreos" meaning "black". Of course it has come from Latin to English too.

[@BoloH.]

It was abso-fucking-lutely used here as a racist term to underline that the prime minister is a racist. Nobody outside Bumfuck and Nowhere thought it was a neutral term in the 00s anymore.

[@blechtic]

@@MaaZeus Negro and similar words originally just meant black in many languages. Those and similar words have been used for black people too, but it varies how offensive they were. Then there's the whole thing whether the word is/was racist or if people are/were ignorant/prejudiced/racist or if they simply live(d) in a culture like that. Given that for a very long time most people didn't have any kind of exposure to people of different race, depending on what century or decade we are talking about, it goes from mentioned in the Bible (possibly in Latin) to having seen a drawing, a photo, on TV, and so on to meeting daily.

[@user-jk6dd1cp6m]

that series is 25 years ago but usa politics resonate to me today about trump same way.

[@temet_fin]

It seems to be quite common these days to mock the ruling government and espeally the prime minister, by the opponents usually of course. But in general, this is only satire, in real life as well, and no one should ever be upset for it. I guess this is not far from the UK show "Prime minister".

[@markkujantunen8298]

A bit like Yes Minister but not nearly as high brow.

[@KrK-EST]

🇪🇪♥️🇫🇮

[@mihai5456]

Now that Finland has a populist far-right government, there is nothing exaggerated about this. Reality is now much crazier.

[@kookoo9235]

Imagine being this hysterical about the 2nd government in my life time that is actually trying to fix a course of a country that is on the path of Greece and has been for a long time. The brainwashing is strong...

[@jannesulamaki7860]

Why are you afraid of words?
