As the article states, many have grown up in Sweden, so the recent immigration waves that the alt right claims have ruined Sweden are probably not the sole cause. The question is why there has been such a sharp rise in bombings. Personally I'd look at what has changed on the drug markets recently instead of immigration policies.

So? Do you believe they entered the drug trade because of their names? Do you think there would be no drug trade if their grandparents weren't admitted to Sweden?

not OP, but I do believe that drug trade wouldn't take place to this extend without the immigrants.

I've lived in Finland decades ago and it was very different from where I came from - clean so to speak. Even in Helsinki Weed was hard to come by. No weird guys lurking on corners and all this scum one encounters in big cities in the wrong districts. There were no wrong districts. Scandinavia is/was (?) a different culture also because it was not riddled with such untethered people.

I think it's really hard to separate things like immigration from other things that might have influenced the availability of drugs, say vast increases in international trade that make smuggling much easier, that happened over the same time.

Sorry I don’t get it?

"Dog whistle" is a whistle with a high pitch that only dogs can hear. It also means something that can be said, which isn't overtly racist, but which racists will recognize as reflecting a racist attitude.

In this case, the comment is accusing you of summoning a dog with your dog whistle, while meaning that your comment is subtly racist.

For what it's worth, I don't really agree. The bombers are largely second or third generation immigrants, and I read you as implying they weren't ethnic Swedes - which is true. I don't see how the truth can be racist.

It's not that the truth is racist, its the selective application of the truth that is racist. For instance, the fact that the majority of the US prison population is African American has been used against African Americans for a very long time, while completely ignoring the selective prosecution that creates that situation.

> they weren't ethnic Swedes - which is true

What is an ethnic swede? Does it have to do with blood purity, skull proportions, or some other definitely racist concept? Or, does it have to do with cultural assimilation and broad acceptance into the ethnic subgroup?

He's claiming you're blowing a dogwhistle, and that you're not-so-secretly a racist.
