    I know people on lemmy like to paint everything with the same brush and don’t like to get into nuances of other countries’ issues but the reality is that the immigration policy created by the Swedish left failed. It would be great to have progressive immigration policy that works but the left failed to create one there. This is the alternative they are trying now.
