    Turns out that a parallel society which barely speaks the native language and doesn’t have the same principles leads to ghettos and violent crime.

        I had no idea what that meant either so I googled it.

        TL;DR: islamism and right-wing extremism are turning the country into shit.

        About 20% of the population was apparently born abroad, and lots of immigrants never properly adapted to the society, so some of them bring islamic values, which clash with developed nations values.

        This makes the more feral parts of the society react in counterproductive ways, in other words, right-wingers burning Qur’an books.

        Personally, I think Islamic principles do not play well with other societies and letting refugees come in to your country when they practice a religion that beheads you if you draw a picture of their leader is a bad move.

        However, I do understand that being targeted by assholes that just want to incite violence, and hate you because you are different, would radicalize a lot of people, specially young and vulnerable ones.
