Integration should be the responsibility of anyone who enters another country. I wouldn't go to Japan or Germany and expect them to slice off a chunk of their territory and call it America for me.
What part of "children" did you not understand, those were generally born and raised Swedes. But more generally speaking: The appeal to individual responsibility is a cop-out. It's literally the bootstrap argument. What are people to do when there's no fucking bootstraps?
Then they should have no problem if they are going to the same public schools.
What part of "not as embedded in the local social network" did you not understand? Am I speaking Klingon?
You're trying very hard to not understand the underlying issues and mechanics, aren't you.
It's classic fascist troll.
You don't want immigrant children going to school with the same kids as the local population?
You got terribly lost. Go back and re-read what I wrote. What did I say about the cousin who owned a repair shop? How many children of immigrants have that kind of connection into the local economy?
You can't integrate yourself when you face racism. When the locals put you and all people vaguely your skin color in the same place, it's not them taking the place, it's you giving them the place and abandoning them there.
