    I’m cool with the government not treating immigrants and asylum seekers as evil, and robbing them of their rights because of the actions of some of their cohort.

      Well if you let this continue then the actions of ‘some of their cohort’ end up causing quite a bit of damage! See Europe right now which is dealing with a huge crime wave because of ‘some of their cohort’ and the majority of countries are now anti-immigrant.

      Spread of gang violence wrecks Sweden’s peaceful image

      Swedish police do not currently map gang members’ nationalities, but research for the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention in 2021 showed young people born in Sweden to two parents from abroad were overrepresented as suspects in murder cases and robberies.

      So if you’re pro-immigration then your best bet is to restrict immigration down to countries and cultures that match our values, importing immigrants from Palestine will for example result in the country regressing backwards politically, but you probably think that’s racist so you’re in quite a conundrum!

      Can’t support open immigration because that ultimately results in closed borders after increased crime/violence vs Can’t support restricting immigration to countries that share our values because that would make you racist.

      Tough times.
