For the curious. The gesture isn’t inherently satanic. It’s an old Germanic Tradition known as the Schwurhand or Swear Hand. In modern day it’s mostly used in Germany, Central Europe, and parts of Eastern Europe with heavy German influences
It predates both the Baphomet Statue and the reference material used to create the statue. The reference material only being from 1856.
The original artist was a Former French Free Mason, Esotericist, and Occultist who fancied himself a magician. Éliphas Lévi though his birth name was Alphonse Louis. He drew a lot of influence from German Occultist/Esotericist counterparts. Likely meaning it was likely both artistic choice and a nod to cultural influence of Germanic thinkers on him.
The old Cub Scout sign was made by the right hand having two fingers up, index and middle fingers in a V-shape (representing wolf ears and the two parts of the Promise) while the thumb holds down the other two fingers.
With Finnish troops... it could be the Baphomet sign for all we know.

The reason why it appears on the Baphomet. Is the original artist of the reference material used to create the statue. A 19th century Frenchman was heavily influenced by German esoterists and Occultists. But the tradition predates the both the statue. And the reference image used to create the statue
I think that is supposed to symbolize honor and duty. The Baphomet one, duality, light and darkness, male and female, and so forth. Since both are two things, and if you want to show "two" with a hand gesture it is easiest to use those same fingers.
After all, entering into these circles requires rescinding their position ...
At any rate: an oath is a word spoken/given, not a guesture by the hand. I mean, what is it with placing a hand on the bible? The Mason do it also. Or some use the henious book of Mo. How about only using the book of John?
Come to think of it: do not swear oaths, just let your yes be yes. All that is added to it, is of the godless.

Isn’t that the Boy Scout oath hand position?
Scouts is with 3 fingers instead of 2, I believe.
Girl Scouts is three fingers …
Thanks for the correction!
you are correct

That’s not weird at all. ~:
meh
personally I think it would be cool to turn the middle finger into a gesture meaning 'hello' 🙂
In Afghanistan, if you want to flip someone off, do a Thumbs-up 👍 . Or, a double thumbs-up if they are a real asshole. 👍👍

Well done chucks. That’s definitive proof that the Finnish army are satanic. You have obviously convinced everyone here.
Do you receive a shekel for every post, or every engagement?
Cool!
Now do "The Shocker!"
