No.
Everyone agrees that there are material limits to what a country can provide. It is indeed obvious that there is a limit to the amount of help that a country can provide.
But raverbashing used a bait-and-switch argument, to say that because there are limits, we (people who live in the EU), can now prevent refugees from entering the EU countries.
What I asked is clarification of what those limits are, and how they were determined.
One limit is "tolerance for foreigners." That's certainly a limit. Is that the limit that raverbashing is talking about?
Another limit is "there is no place to put them." Sweden has problems with that.
I can think of other limits. But none are the sort of existential limits that everyone agrees exists.
