Where in Sweden did you grow up?
Do you speak the Swedish language?
Do you adhere to the cultural and societal norms of Swedish society?
Ever heard of the phrase "Lagom"? Probably not.

You may have a passing resemblance to Swedish people but nobody in Sweden would take you as their own and they probably wouldn't like you if they met you.
I am of Swedish descent. Unlike you...

Well, this was more than 25 years ago. The folks in the community - and that includes Korean Americans, African Americans, Latinos, and others - learned from that experience since then. Unlike you, they're capable of change and understandng, and collaboration.

Actually, Koreatown is majority Hispanic/Latino. There's also a community of Thais and Bangledeshis too.

Maybe one solution is intermarriage. Forgot to tell you, one of my cousins (grew up in NY) married a Twin Cities native (a white guy of German or Scandinavian ancestry) and have lived in the Twin Cities for over 20 years. Both my brother and sister have married non-Asians and so have a majority of my cousins.

So you can either cling onto your bitterness at the demographic changes, wishing that the 1965 immigration act never happened, or you just deal.
The Hmongs keep to themselves more than anyone in the Twin Cities. More or less. They are very isolated. Very little (almost none) intermarriage.

Nobody in Europe considers that to be of any value. People in Ireland do not consider Irish Americans to be Irish. Matter of fact they call the Plastic Patties. Italians do not consider Italian Americans to be Italian. You know that you are to them. Just an American.

You don't speak for the entirety of those places. They are not monolithic in their ideals.

They have allowed their cultures to be defiled by cu(ks, I will give you that. Cultural Marxism has poisoned all of the West, for sure.




But yet I will always have more in common with them than with you. Blood is thicker than water

They aren't a monolithic you are right. But having lived in Europe for years I can attest from the many conversations I have had with various European peoples (including people in Sweden) that they have little love or interest in White Americans.

The West is a nonsense term along with the term "Cultural Marxism" of which you have no concept of what it actually means.

Which is something nobody in Sweden actually considers to be important. Swedes are much more into the notion of culture then they are of ethnicity and heritage. Being Swedish is more of a way of being and perceiving the world then blood heritage. Logom.

So move to Sweden, then, if you're so bitter and unhappy at how things are here.

It is two different questions.

Certain elements of our society are certainly moving towards separatism, but it is not primarily based on race.

As far as the racism, I do not think that it is getting worse, although the weaponization of vitriolic and hateful racial rhetoric by the Democrat left and their supporters in the mass media certainly has.

But that is a nakedly brazen effort to pit different groups against each other for partisan political reasons, as anyone who is not a numb-skull can easily see.
