Sad and scary, but fitting in with other European trends.


Sweden Is Becoming Unbearable
For Sweden, a country that trades on being a bastion of social democracy, tolerance and fairness, it’s a shock.

Predictable

Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.

Sorry, but this website lacks credibility and transparency.
DNyuz is an Armenian website that plagiarizes content word for word from other news source, often from sources that have failed fact checks.

There does seem to be a sense that most places in the world are metaphorically on fire, though.

Well while it's all fine and well to object to a party ostensibly favoring Nazi style slogans , the crux of the matter here is that of mass immigration itself , which if left improperly addressed will push the rise of the " far right " even further .

As Hillary Clinton herself observed , if one wants to prevent the coming of right wing populists/whatever one wants to call them to power , then one should advocate for a different approach to the issue of mass immigration :

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/22/w...sm-europe.html

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...ration-n939576

In short if the author of this article truly wants to prevent the rise of those they consider to be Nazis , then they themselves should advocate for more restrictive immigration policy .

that article did seem like it was trying very hard to create something out of nothing, to create a narrative and hope it sticks as truth.

there is so much of that that poisons the thought process of so many people.

THIS makes Sweden 'unbearable'? With its low crime rate and seemingly overall higher expected standards of behaviour, I would take it!

I have quite a bit of family and friends in Sweden, and none of them have referred to it as "unbearable," including the ones who have concerns about immigration

Sweden's crime rates are fairly flat since 1990. Hype against immigrants is all too common on the right even when they are cleaning their houses and tending to their children at very low prices.
