A strong regional focus on South Estonia, describing it as a region experiencing national contraction and mass out-migration, where the development of national defense (Nursipalu) and services (Põlva maternity ward) has completely disregarded the local population. It also emphasizes the discrimination faced by rural residents (especially women) through the introduction of the car tax and the establishment of wind farms. Internationally, the focus is on the impact of US (Trump) and European Union (Green Deal) policies on Estonia.

It draws significant attention to the threat of rural depopulation and the viability of rural areas, particularly concerning the closure of village schools (such as Metsküla School in Lääneranna Municipality). It mentions specific regions like Ida-Virumaa (energy sector, Russian-language media), Saaremaa (offshore wind farms), and Võrumaa (Nopri farm). It criticizes government policies that exacerbate regional inequality (e.g., the car tax, which disproportionately affects rural residents).
