Probably started as a troll and picked up by dumbasses. Like the Flat Earth Society.
I wonder if the Finland conspiracy has any genuine believers yet...
I thought it was Belgium?
This kinda makes me feel old.
The version I heard I thought it was New Zealand... 😝
New Zealand doesn't exist. Show me New Zealand on a map
(this joke works because New Zealand is left off of a stupid number of maps)
Wait, it’s not Iceland?
I've also heard it's Australia
But then where do the waffles come from? And the chocolates? And diamonds?
All those things come from Bielefeld !
You have been lied to your whole life !
Ok, you convinced me. Where do I sign up?
Uhhh...
That's a great great question..
"Where is Bielefeld ?"
We know that it exists. But where ?
Bielefeld? The football club from Armenia? 😉
Where does black metal come from?
Finland?
Mostly Norway, Sweden, and (to a lesser extent) Denmark.
Also from a profound sense of alienation combined with a tendency towards macabre flamboyancy and just subjective stylistic preferences of expression, I guess 🤷
Hate to be this guy, but it's Norway.
Ahchchcually USA has by far the most metal bands, but yeah Finland leads the per capita list by far.
That sounds like something a Finn would say.
So Finns do exist, other than Belgian people
Careful, that word's really offensive in most parts of the galaxy.
Except in serious screenplays, of course.
I once won the Rory Award for The Most Gratuitous Use of that word in a Serious Screenplay, you know.. Then someone stole it, of course..
Pretty sure it was Idaho
What conspiracy?
That Finland does not exist. It started on reddit here: https://www.reddit.com/r/finlandConspiracy/comments/52f5ae/the_finland_conspiracy_and_all_you_need_to_know/
That what does not exist? I have no idea what you're talking about.
what a lame copy of the Bielefeld-Conspiracy
I went there for a visit, and they just toured me the east side of Tallinn as if I was an idiot
