> like Sweden became
When people tell you you're a racist it's because deliberately mischaracterise things to support a false narrative.
Do you not understand you're lying or does your prejudice make you not care?
Many areas in Sweden have begun to face serious problems with having enough manpower to deal with crime. I know the video I posted was a bit shabby but they were discussing exactly that.
I think it's great that some countries are trying to make mass immigration work as it can be an example for the rest of us. I just don't think it's as clear cut as "This is good! This is good! This is good!" as there can be many reasons why Sweden still tops the EU rape rates and why the numbers may have decreased in recent years.
This is the stupidest thing I've seen on HN today.

Many people feel the same but won't say it.
Haven't we been fighting for 20 years against prejudices? Is it time we stop having prejudices about 62m people who just elected the president, and start seeing them as individuals with a reasoning? Is your analysis complete about those people? How will politics evolve if one side closes ears and eyes to the facts brought up by the other side, just because it leads them to conclusions they don't like? Is it scientific not to acknowledge facts when they lead you to conclusions you don't like? "If Earth were heliocentric that would mean the center of the universe isn't the Earth, but that doesn't match with my interpretation of the Bible, therefore heliocentrism doesn't exist" ? Galileo went to jail for this. James Damore was also fired for digging up scientific facts people didn't like. And the Left reject facts when it doesn't match the conclusions they like.
If your analysis stops with a big prejudice against 62m people, it's time to change analysis.
NB: I'd like to acknowledge the other comment which debunks Sweden as not-the-European-capital-of-rape. Thank you for the facts.
No, you get Trump when you have rampant gerrymandering, voter suppression, and an electoral system which greatly favours the (still racist) southern states.
> James Damore was also fired for digging up scientific facts
No, he was fired for publically posting a pseudoscientific screed that demeaned a third of his co-workers (and half the human race.)
> the Left reject facts when it doesn't match the conclusions they like
Good grief. If there's one side which doesn't do that, it's the left (not that the US actually has a left, mind; there's just "not as right as the GOP".)
