I’m not living in any Nordic country so I can’t speak for those, but this “migrants cause crime” argument exists in any developed country. There are a lot of articles debunking the claims. I like John Oliver’s debunking since it’s pretty easy to understand: https://youtu.be/axsgzg3RyF0
When any deep analysis is conducted, the arguments from racists simply don’t hold water. They offer simple, racist, and hateful explanations to very complex problems.
From another article from the same blog:
Given that Musk grew up in South Africa, he’s almost guaranteed to know about Black-White IQ gaps and crime rates
The author is deeply racist, just so you didn’t know. Anything they write, their whole blog, should be taken with huge amounts of salt. They also think
I haven’t played any game I bought last autumn sale ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Do you have difficulties running pokemon go (if you do play it) and/or banking apps?
I strongly think what you did is incorrect but I appreciate you sharing your view, and disapprove those who downvoted you. Upvoted.

My rational side wants to see Harris win, but the anarchist in me wants to see Trump win, just to see what would happen. Not living in the US, obviously.
Trump winning could be a disaster for the whole world since US is such a major player in basically everything, but my anarchist side does not listen.
“Vote with your wallet” means more money gets you more votes.
Some users leaving Reddit/instagram/twitter is not a problem, especially considering network effects, but some advertisers leaving is a crisis.
Safari, until apple’s stance on privacy worsens.
Someone should start a rumor that this is an in-game screenshot from GTA VI
If you’re a fan of the idea, you’re either a nazi or really really ignorant/naive/misinformed.
So I’ll assume the latter and try to briefly explain to you why it’s so bad: people bad, authoritarianism inevitable, results in ‘oops you’re not “human” because you lack/have X, you must die’
Humanity, just like nature, thrives with diversity. Eugenics starts with “getting rid of nasty diseases” but it’s always 1 bad classification of “disease” away from genocide.
It’s a cop, not a child. All it takes is for them to connect your phone to an external device.
