    "Immigrants are being attacked and harassed and threatened to leave the country"
    "I bet some immigrants are harassing citizens too"

    Yes, some of the immigrants are harassing the citizens, and raping them too. This is happening all over Europe, especially in Sweden. I dont need to cite the articles where this is happening right?

    "Are there ways to frame hard-line anti-immigration as having little to do with race? Sure. Is that a realistic view to take of this? Absolutely not."

    This isn't a personal opinion type of thing lol

    When wpg says that it isn't a realistic view to take of this, it's not his opinion, it's what he thinks being the truth.

    An opinion isn't what you think being the truth

    "In my opinion, 7 is a higher number than 10"

    That doesn't work, because the truth is that 10 is a higher number than 7.

    You could say "I think 7 is a higher number than 10"
    It's untrue, but the phrase makes sense.

    no I think policy is absolutely opinionated and it doesn't have to be racist if you disagree with mass immigration

    I'd never understand how you guys apply this type of 10 year old kid mentality without even reflecting about it first

    But if you admit that immigration laws aren't racist and maybe even necessary, then it really doesn't matter that there is a fraction of people who have these digesting views. You can't stop a good policy because you find that ignorant people may support it also.

    Is it racist to say that Merkel made a mistake with her mass immigration policy? of course it's not

    You see this is why its hard to actually talk about real policy like this, because people will just paint the side that they disagree with as "racist" and then nobody gets anywhere.
