    For people who wanna know this is all swedens fault. They put the migrants who couldnt speak swedish into neighbourhoods that were already full of marginalised swedes and finns. Now its at the point where they speak a mixture of turkish, arabic, swedish, english, etc and even in the schools there arent enough swedish speakers so the kids also learn this language instead of the “proper swedish”. This all couldve been avoided if the immigrants warent segregated basically. I live in a city where its about 30-40% immigrants(including me) and almost everything is completely normal and everyone is integrated. Its possibly to take on this many immigrants, you just have to do it properly.

      The immigrants were free to move wherever they pleased. They gathered among themselves. Many immigrants have never had and will never have any intention of leaving their culture behind and integrate.

      This is not the fault of us Swedes, and your accusation is unjust. The only blame here is the nativité to think that people migrating had any actual want to be here.

      Just to be clear, Sweden didn’t “put” immigrants anywhere. They were free to settle wherever they wanted and chose to live next to people they knew and shared a culture with.

      Perhaps it’s Sweden had decided where immigrants could and could not live, things would be different.

        I agree, and clearly, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

      The segregation in Sweden is real and extreme like you mention.

      Back in 2005 I moved to Sweden from Germany because my wife back then was Swedish. We had to move to one of those places where there were mostly immigrants, especially when it came to the children. Our doughter always spoke Swedish but sometimes she would come home from the playground and ask us why she doesn’t speak Albanian, all the other children speak Albanian.

      Anyway, the school she was supposed to go to was more than 50℅ migrants. This was when even I as a migrant said we need to move her to the neighboring school, even if it 10 more minutes to walk every time, because there are much less migrants there. So yeah even I added to the problem of segregation. It’s tough to follow your good intentioned principals when it affects your own child in a bad way.
