Currently, perhaps not, what with the refugee crisis and all. I still think it's not as bad as you describe it; I know of several Muslims who live there and really like it. But if the US ends up continuing on this path, I think Sweden would be a great option.
- charlesism 10y agoWouldn't Canada make more sense? Weather's no worse.
- Cyph0n 10y agoYep, that's also a great option, but I like the proximity of Sweden to Europe and to my country of origin Tunisia. It makes visiting family much less of a hassle.
- charlesism 10y agoIf I were muslim, Canada would be my first choice. Europe seems to be revisiting the 1930's at the moment.
- internaut 10y agoYou are surely trolling us or are splendidly unaware of what is going on in Europe.
- Cyph0n 10y agoI'm not trolling, but I'm not sure I follow. I know that some European countries are embracing the far-right, but I have not heard anything about Sweden specifically.
- internaut 10y agoThe kindest thing I can say is that the relationship between Muslims and Europe is beyond troubled. You're in a bubble. Without self identifying as a Muslim, go to a random variety of forums and ask the question "What is the future of Europe and Islam" or just "Europe and Muslims" in search engines. https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Europe%20and%20Muslims https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Europe%20and%20M...
- charlesism 10y agoSweden has accepted more muslim immigrants than most countries in Europe, and there are a lot of Swedes who aren't happy about it. There was an incident last year where a gang ran through the Stockholm train station randomly beating immigrants. I haven't been there for a couple years, but things sound pretty tense.
