In Sweden there's quite a lot of drama about the Syrian refugees. Very much a doomsday atmosphere in the newspapers. But all the researchers are sitting bewildred by our reactions. They don't understand why the drama or where the fear comes from. There's certainly no rational reason to fear anything. The numbers show that we will manage fine. The only people who feel they can expain it are the psychologists, ie people just like drama. And that's just all it is about. But is it? I don't find that explanation satisfactory. It's not even Xenophobia. We've got plenty of Middle-Eastern immigrants in these parts.
What do you think this is all about?
Note: this isn't a thread on discussing the refugee crisis in general. We have other threads about it. If you think that the wests reaction to the refugee crisis is rational and reasonable (or even to weak), then obviously, this thread isn't for you.
