My parents came from Croatia in the 60s, started a business in Sweden and prospered. Raised 4 children who all prospered as functional members of society.
When the civil war broke out they both took jobs as interpreters for refugees from yugoslavia. Dad took extra jobs at immigrations to help refugees settle.
So they've seen it all before, the working immigrants in the 60s, 70s and the refugees in the 90s. The albanian refugees again in the late 90s and early 2000.
Migration is as natural as breathing to humans. We have likely done it since before we were humans.
And when we became the humans we know today, with our own tribal cultures and local dialects of course there must have been culture clashes. Yet migration has always been and always will be.
Why people can't understand that is beyond me.
