> only the parties I didn't want to vote for could talk about it. ...and therein lies the rub. Assuming you did vote you gave your vote to just those parties which did all they could to promulgate the problem by castigating anyone who dared to speak about migration in anything but a positive way as 'racists' or 'nazis'. The only reason we can talk about it now is that those parties - or rather that party, only Sverigedemokraterna (the "national-conservative" party, their program resembles that of the social democrats of the early 60's from before Olof Palme) has been steadfast in their position with Moderaterna (the "classically liberal" party) having been one of the instigators of the current problems through Fredrik Reinfeldt's (prime minister of Sweden from 2006 to 2014) deal with Miljöpartiet (the "green party" which has been far more active in promoting migration and related activism than they have been for their original environmental goals) to "open the borders" in 2014 to "punish the country for having voted Sverigedemokraterna into the parliament". That same prime minister claimed that "Ursvenskt är bara barbariet. Resten av utvecklingen har kommit utifrån" [1] ("purely Swedish is only barbarism, the rest of development has come from the outside") - with a prime minister who thinks such about the country he is supposed to lead it comes as no surprise that he made things worse rather than better. I'm a migrant to Sweden myself, having moved there from the Netherlands in 2002. I was surprised by the fact that Sweden had a real-life national socialist party, something which would not be possible in the Netherlands. No, it was not Sverigedemokraterna but Nationalsocialistisk Front which later changed its name into Svenskarnas Parti before they gave the ghost a few years later. Now there is something called Nordiska Motståndsrörelse (Northern Resistance movement) which seems to fill the gap. What soon became clear is that those parties did exist but that they were the absolute fringe and never attracted more than a few hundred people, were not taken seriously by nearly everyone and were mostly dangerous for their own in-crowd due to incessant infighting. The only real function these parties had and have seems to be to function as a foil for the likes of EXPO (a self-proclaimed anti-nazi/anti-racist group which may have started out that way but for many decades is more aptly described as a left-wing propaganda organisation, their research wing proudly describes itself as "Swedens STASI") and the propaganda arms of several "progressive" parties to portray Sweden as having a large problem with "nazis" and "racists". This stood and stands in complete opposition to the facts which, at least until recently, showed Sweden as one of the most tolerant and open countries in the world. This tolerance and openness having been abused past the breaking point finally seems to permeate the masses which makes the scare tactics - "skrämselpropaganda" for another fine Swedish word to try to pronounce for all you linguaphobes out there - less effective and has started to make it possible to discuss problems related to migration and integration/assimilation without immediately (or at least "effectively", the accusations are still made but they don't tend to stick as well as they did before) being shot down as a 'racist' or 'nazi'.
