I’ve watched this story grow over the last decades or so. There is no gang problem, its just a conspiracy theory/propaganda. There is a gang problem but it’s overstated. There is a serious gang problem. There is a serious gang problem but it’s bikers. There is a serious gang problem, OK, it’s not bikers. There is a serious gang problem, it’s immigrants and immigrant descended Swedes, but it’s Sweden’s fault for not integrating them <-You are here.

    This is actually almost the current step in many places. What's the next step after that?

      Consequences. Like erecting a transparent plexiglass-cylinder with 3 meters diameter and 5 meters height in public, filling it up to half height with pig piss. Dropping the problems into it, until they cease to exist. And associated bystanders realizing there will be no paradise for them, soiled before the eyes of their god. Simple, isn't it?

    I believe Sweden has passed this gap recently. Politicians, even on the left, can now oppose gang violence and comment on some integration problems without being labeled as outright racist. However, most of the media and people on the opposing side of the political spectrum are still wary of people who focus too much on crime and integration problems. They are viewed as populist and are kept at an arms length distance. So it is still necessary to balance these opinions with sober coverage of other, less infected, issues. Our equivalent to InfoWars exist on the extreme far right and still doesn't have real credibility among common people. I believe most of the middle class don't have to deal with conspiracy theorists in their families or at work just yet.
