Finland is named the happiest country in the world for the eighth year in a row, according to the World Happiness Report 2025 published Thursday.

Other Nordic countries are also once again at the top of the happiness rankings in the annual report published by the Wellbeing Research Centre at the University of Oxford. Besides Finland, Denmark, Iceland and Sweden remain the top four and in the same order.

Country rankings were based on answers people give when asked to rate their own lives. The study was done in partnership with the analytics firm Gallup and the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network.

When it comes to decreasing happiness — or growing unhappiness —the United States has dropped to its lowest-ever position at 24, having previously peaked at 11th place in 2012. The report states that the number of people dining alone in the United States has increased 53% over the past two decades.

    So you’re saying I should have more evidence of them breaking my rights than the amount off evidence I have, because they illegally stopped me from filming the rights being broken?

    And you genuinely how you don’t see how youre delusional?

    I could give you all the court documents, all the recordings of the phone calls with my lawyers, all the doctors statements I have describing how I almost reached an artery with the makeshift shiv I managed to make. I still have permanent scarring on both hands and lack the tip of my pinky finger.

    If I did any of those things to someone, it would be aggravated assault. Pysyvä fyysinen vamma.

    Explain to me how a person who has prescribed antipsychotic medications which he is prevented from taking, is placed under “supervision for his own safety” manages to draw hundreds of words on the walls?

    Explain to me how it makes sense to you, paskahousu.

    You’re so deluded it’s sickens me to my fucking stomach. You wouldn’t have the balls to say any of this to my face.

      I mean more evidence would definitely be helpful in this conversation. Now it’s just a singular anecdote. Even more helpful for this actual conversation would be if you showed how this was a systemic issue or some such thing.

        Finland has more human rights violations than the rest of the Nordics complained.

        You’re just utterly delusional and willfully ignorant.

        You’re a coward and can’t explain what you think. Did I fake the image?

          Pretty surprising if true. Can you post a source here?

          Did I fake the image?

          It just looked like a photo of a jail cell, dunno what it was supposed to prove

            You don’t see the blood on the walls or do you honestly imagine that it’s legal for police to put a person suffering from psychosis to an isolation cell and deny them their medication and access to healthcare AND water while they eat themselves, try to kill themselves, and draw with their own blood on the walls?

            You’re pathologically avoidant. Literally, LITERALLY unable to accept reality.

            You’re sick.

            So am I, but at least I know I am.

                Oh for fucking sake, stop it.

                I mentioned and highlighted it several times, in every comment.

                Please, your explanation of what legal thing does Finland have that allows a man to draw on the walls with his own blood under "supervision to ensure your safety, for days on end.

                Do tell me.

                Go ahead.

                I’m very curious to hear your version of what happened to me.

                  I went back to look at the picture. You mean those scribbling on the wall are your blood? I thought it was just typical jail cell scribblings tbh.

                  Please, your explanation of what legal thing does Finland have that allows a man to draw on the walls with his own blood under "supervision to ensure your safety, for days on end.

                  I don’t think it is legal, this conversation has been more about 1) what is happening 2) how does it relate to the topic at hand 3) if this is real 4) is this a systemic or a common issue.

                    “Typical jail cells scribblings”

                    You’ve never been in a jail cell, I see.

                    Now you’re just in denial.

                    I literally wrote “I wrote over 300 words in my own blood” some dozen times in comments to you. Don’t pretend this is coming as a surprise now that you actually can’t explicitly say any alternative despite implicitly wanting so badly to avoid the subject.

                    This conversation is about Finnish emotional stuntedness, which is due to the inherent psychological avoidance “built-in” to Finnish culture and language. I could explain the reasons why it’s evolved and developed in the first place, but I don’t feel like explaining it to a kusimulkku.

                    You still haven’t accepted it’s actually happened. You’re still implicitly avoiding it. Despite having no alternative to what happened, despite me very clearly explaining what happened and you having literally said “that’s probably not true”, based on just your fear of accepting that anything like that could ever happen in Finland.

                    That exact fucking “ei meiä lintukodosssa” attitude is what is protecting the cops and why Finland has more human rights violations from ECHR than the rest of the Nordics combined.

                    I have also explained those two things, several times.

                    Here I went to my old phone to get you these

                    You won’t be able to accept that I was literally tortured. Not physically brutalised, mind you, but that isn’t the only form of torture. It’s would’ve loved being beaten for three days in a dark room compared to this.

                    See how much food there is? None of it eaten?
