    How many people think the same, do you think?
    I am afraid Swedes could die out in 100 years, and will be replaced with Mozambicans, if a mess of such kind will continue.

    The people in the countryside are not hit by this hysteria yet (gender, immigration, homosexuality etc) particularly in the North. And the Swedish speaking internet is galore with immigrant bashing, because media won't say a word about any of the associated problems, like criminality and endless dependency on welfare. Media will not under any circumstances deviate from their official opinions/

    For example if three refugees from Somalia rapes a Swedish girl, media will write that it was "three tall men in their early 20s". They are not allowed to say anything about the person's nationality. Interestingly enough that does not apply to Germans, Italians, Russians, Bulgarians etc who commit a crime in Sweden. But if the person is for instance, Somali, Iraqi, Kurdish or Uzbek, then nobody must know!

    A tremendous irony occurs when politically correct media is torn in two directions when they are facing a news story about an immigrant family that has "reactionary" values. For example, they ban their teenage daughters from having a boyfriend, or spanked their child who was naughty. It goes against their principles to write anything negative about immigrants (against the spirit of "multiculturalism") but at the same time they want to object to the politically incorrect values of many immigrants. Usually they ignore the whole story, and people find out on blogs etc. You wouldn't believe the media climate in Sweden if I told you, seriously. There was probably greater variety in opinion in the USSR media, I am not joking. It's been like this all my life, although he winds have turned a bit.

    This is one issue where 14Russian will not contradict me, I think. And just to finish of the irony, then the same papers or TV show will then rant on about bout the lack of freedom of press in Russia.

    It's very sad, to think of a country that had almost NO serious problem (in my childhood) and then naively "imported" them, and created them. Finland has always throughout history been quite a bit poorer than Sweden, I think as of about 10 years back, it's richer and more successful. They had almost no immigration and are not fanatical about the politically correct ideals.

    By the way, even in the country your hate for is incredible (the United States), the media doesn't usually have issues with depicting aliens the way they deserve.
