A new Russian-Finnish war is coming

        The Russian-Finnish War of 1939-1940 began with an ultimatum from Moscow to transfer part of the territory of Finland to the USSR, namely the Korel Isthmus and islands in the Gulf of Finland in order to ensure the security of Leningrad. In other words, the Finns recklessly placed their country too close to the city of revolutionary glory, which the insidious Finns could subject to artillery fire. As a result of the war, the Finns lost 10% of their territory and Vyborg, the second largest city in Finland. Today the threat from Finland has returned again, which, having become a NATO member, has the opportunity to fire at the same city, now St. Petersburg, with NATO missiles. Due to the fact that the threat situation has returned, we must expect a new ultimatum for the Finns to move the border beyond the flight time, that is, to move the country to the ice of the Arctic Ocean, otherwise they will suffer the same fate as Ukraine.

Now you are basically mimicking Russian propaganda. I mean you are using same reasoning they will be using to justify an attack. Putin had reasons to go to war with us before that, as Finland is one of those "Lenin's mistakes" putin wants to fix.

Before 2014 we (Finland) had semi-good relationship with Russia, but starting from 2014 with the invasion of Krim, relationship with Russia started to decline, and in 2022 it ended.

We knew threat was a possibility so we have been preparing for it over 70 years by building unbreakable supply chains and huge bunkers. But even though we were preparing, we didn't want to believe Putin would be this crazy, and in 2022, majority of our minds about nato were changed in one day. Before this, majorty of Finnish people didn't want to join into it. We saw a time window to join because we knew russia wouldn't have 2 wars at once. That would have been harder for Putin to justify, as they didn't have build enough propaganda against us yet. (They have been slowly doing that though)

We joined to nato because they saw Russia as a direct threat. We joined to prevent the war as we know Russia haven't attacked to any nato country for a reason.

Before invading Finland, they will try to shake nato alliance in every way they can but if nato holds together, i can't see why would Russia would risk it.
