      I don’t know if you joke or not, but thinking finnish = communist is too far away from any truth. I lived and still live in an ex-communist country and let me tell you: nothing Linus says or does is communist in any way. Socialist? Maybe! But that’s a different discussion.

      1. He’s not Finnish, he’s a Swede from Finland. Please attribute the nationality correctly.
      2. He’s not defending communists. He just points out that ‘woke’ is a word used in a spiritual context, which doesn’t make sense with communism. The header of this thread is a clickbait. Read the article again.

      EDIT: He’s actually a Swedish-speaking Finnish guy, mea culpa.

        1. Finns are arch enemies of communists. Show a finnish guy a hammer and sickle, and he’ll … you.
