#1 And yet, the realities of immigration are apparent for all to see: welfare dependency, violent bigotry against Christians and Jews, and a wide range of social pathologies from unemployment to politically motivated rape. Accordingly, ever-increasing numbers of Swedes find themselves — despite known hazards — opting out of the consensus and worrying about their country’s cultural suicide.

When the Swedes begin to rigorously endorse Affirmative Action and inclusion, so-called 'social pathologies' will be begin to be seen as normative. You can temporarily escape by moving away to the suburbs or sending your children to private schools, but the suicide of the host culture is the desired outcome of multi-culturalism.

#3 I guess the Swedes have not noticed their culture going to hell lately. Multicultural at work while completely ignoring that some cultures do not play well with other cultures.

#4 When did the tough Sweden of the past disappear?

I remember reading about the Swedish army being a major concern for the Russia of the Czars. Was it when they decided to appease the Germans and be neutral in WWII? Was it the neutrality/fear of Russia in WWI?

What happened to the Vikings?

#5 Vikings conquered and settled in good chunks of Ireland, England, Normandy, Iceland, etc, leaving the less violent at home.

Vikings converted to Christianity around 1200 and lost the remains of that viking spirit. They might still have remained an awesome western military but pretty much the aggressiveness was bled out by then.

#7 Multiculturalism can work as long as ALL the cultures are reciprocal.
When tribals are imported (to presumably boost the rents establishment types exist on) it harms the country.
