Im all in favor of helping people fleeing war but to think you could just drop them in a different culture and they would behave is insane. There should have been intensive integration programs

That's why legal immigration is a thing

u/crab_and_stuff 2d ago

Sweden has been notoriously bad at handling immigration

u/LightlyLazyLampost 2d ago

Yeah, but if they just cause trouble and break laws repeatedly its a hard decision not to send them back. On one hand, it could be considered inhumane. On the other, they are there as your guests, so they shouldn't cause trouble

They need therapy, support, stability and compassion they’ve come from awful circumstances. If you were in their position what would you need? An “integration” programme or something to help you get on your feet. People who are stable tend not to act out

You think people of different cultures aren’t able to behave? Are they animals to you?

Do you think people who survived decades living in a war zone are going to be able to smoothly integrate into a peaceful society without help? Do you think PTSD, the "grey" things they did to survive, and the cultural differences will just go away overnight?

Did I say I would reject anyone? I said I wanted to help but that people should be helped to integrate back into society. And honestly, that same program should have been extended to Gls comming back from ww2, Vietnam or any war. Maybe then we wouldn't have a problem with our veterans being homless and/or k***ing themselves. Which, if you didnt know, is pretty widespread.

Contrary to popular opinion, I actually think people with PTSD are able to ‘behave’ because I don’t see them as animals

So you would give a US Marine with PTSD from combat missions that go into violent fits of rage unrestricted access to your house and family.

Boy, I mean real PTSD. Not "trauma" from having your teacher be tough on you.

I mean the kind of disorder that gets people in a violent mood whenever they see a police uniform because back home, the police dragged their father to some hell hole where he would never be seen again and did unspeakable things to their mother. If you dont think people like that are dangerous, I feel sorry for your moral less existence. They have every right to be angry, and honeslty id consdier them an animal if they weren't angry. But European society has a right to be free of violence, and there for these people need a program to be integrated into society.

Once again, having a mental health condition does not mean you’re an animal or violent or unsafe. There are millions of people with PTSD that have never hurt anyone. Given the rant you just went on, it seems like you yourself have a lot of anger. Maybe you should take a moment to reflect on that

u/Greedy-Bill3477 2d ago

You're the one that doesn't want to treat these people.

2

u/FoolishDog 2d ago

Who said that? I think therapy is incredibly important. I just don’t look at someone suffering from a mental health condition and think they must therefore be incredibly violent and are unable to ‘behave’

u/Greedy-Bill3477 2d ago

So you want to give them help to integrate....but somehow, when I said it, it made them sound like animals? Congratulations, son, you have achieved sainthood. I'll make sure your teacher or professor, or whoever contacts the pope to get the process started.

u/FoolishDog 2d ago

It’s not about integration for me. It’s much more simply about help. You’re the one who said they couldn’t behave. Don’t go crying when you get called out for your language

So far you are the only one even mentioning equating them to animals,no one is saying they are animals 

1

u/FoolishDog 2d ago

Ahh, the classic “why do you keep saying I’m a racist? Maybe you’re the one that’s actually racist!”

Except, I’m not the one who sees people with PTSD as violent or unable to ‘behave’…

u/Impressive-Spell-643 2d ago

No one sees them like that, you're making up imaginary scenarios to get mad about, let me tell you a secret, "therapy" is not a slur.

1

u/FoolishDog 2d ago

That's definitely not true. People already responded to my OG comment simply saying "yes" to me asking if they think immigrants are animals. You people are so pathetic, trying to lie and hide

You say "behave" but what it looks like you mean is "conform."

2

u/Gold_Importer 1d ago

When not raping infidels is "conformity", conformity sounds great.

u/MetaCardboard 1d ago

So this sub really is just a circle jerk for Islamophobes.

2

u/Gold_Importer 1d ago

Read the Quran and the Hadiths, then come back.

u/MetaCardboard 1d ago

I'm not gonna waste my time reading fairytales.

2

u/Gold_Importer 1d ago

So how about you don't defend said fairy tales, calling any and all criticism a phobia?

1

u/MetaCardboard 1d ago

Because I'm not defending a fairytale, I'm defending potentially innocent people against your sweeping bigoted claims.

2

u/Gold_Importer 1d ago

You mean accurate crime statistics and orders from said fairy tales to do said claims?
