> Sweden, specifically, is held up by a certain political faction as a poster child to advocate for certain set of policies

Interestingly, from inside the country it seems to be held up by the right as the worst handling possible, and from outside the country it is held up by the right as the only reasonable handling.

The truth, as always, is somewhere in between. I think it is important to look at the data without left/right tinted glasses.

That is interesting.

I would point out though that the truth does not always fit between the 'left' and 'right' views. The migration of the Overton window, capture of major media, and increased acceptance of social media censorship sailed away from truth some time ago.
