Vilified as ‘racists’, the SD party has had to endure smears and slurs at the hands of a monopoly media, and their politicians and members intimidated and victimized, and it didn’t work, the people saw through it all.  Mass immigration to a welfare state is a suicidal policy from the git-go. 

Stenberg added, however, that the Sweden Democrats’ recent rise in opinion polls likely has a connection to Swedes’ concerns about immigration. 

Poll highlights Swedes’ immigration concerns

Published: 31 Jan 13 17:34 CET |

Immigration is growing in importance to Swedish voters, according to a new study that revealed most voters think the far-right Sweden Democrats are the party with the best immigration policies. 

Last year, immigration ranked eleventh among the most important issues for Swedish voters. 

But the results of a new survey published on Thursday by polling firm Novusreveal that immigration is now the sixth most important political issue in the eyes of voters. 

The poll allowed respondents to mark several policy areas as “the most important” and 43 percent indicated that immigration is the most important issue. 

Healthcare, schools, and education topped the list, with roughly 70 percent of voters marking those issues as most important. 

The poll also found that the highest percentage of Swedish voters, 20 percent, believe the anti-immigration Sweden Democrats have the best immigration policy. 

Last year, 11 percent thought the party had the best immigration policy, while 14 percent thought the Social Democrats were best equipped to handle the issue, the same figure the party received in this year’s Novus poll. 

Meanwhile, 39 percent of respondents said they couldn’t answer the question. 

The survey was carried out from January 10th to 16th and consisted of interviews with 1,000 people randomly selected people aged 18 to 79. 

“The numbers show that immigration has become more important at the same time as other issues, such as law and order, have become less important,” Novus CEO Torbjörn Sjöström told the TT news agency. 

“That the Sweden Democrats are seen as having the best policy is a failure for the other parties.” 

Overall, the Social Democrats were seen as being best in 13 policy areas, the most among Sweden’s political parties.

Melting pot societies are the only way to secure the individual…

Multiculturalism is a gross failure.  Assimilation, where celebrating one’s own heritage but as a full member of the dominant culture, wins. 

There Is No Such Thing As White Cultural Heritage.  The West’s Legacy Is Open To All…

There’s No Common Cultural Legacy For The Alt-Right

Still, is there something to it?  Is there a common heritage that will cover El Greco and Hume and Dostoyevsky?  Is there one that can include the Jacobites and the Jacobins?  There is, but it is not racial, and white supremacists reject it because it rejects them.  The unifying heritage of Europe is religious and philosophical.  It is Jerusalem and Athens, in one famous formulation.  Christian religion and Greek philosophy, filtered through Roman law and culture, are the foundation of European culture.  The tensions, agreements, developments and settlements between these have shaped the Western world, and these roots of Western civilization are not congenial to white supremacy. 

Christianity is universal in its message and Jewish in its origins.  For centuries after its founding, Christianity’s center was the Mediterranean world, including Asia Minor and North Africa.  Christianity has never been defined by race, and locally-grown racist heresies are only sustainable among those ignorant of Christianity’s teachings, origins and history. 

Greek philosophy is likewise ill-suited to serve as a basis for white identity.  It is either too universal (addressing the human condition in general) or too local—none of us live as citizens of an ancient Greek polis.  Later philosophical developments in Europe, such as the philosophies of the Enlightenment, likewise tend to be too universal for white supremacists seeking a tribal identity.  As for the scientific revolution that developed within Western culture (albeit with much borrowed from outside Europe), math doesn’t care what color someone is.

Daniel Greenfield explains Islam 101:

"Every devout Muslim is an "Islamist".  Islam is not a personal religion.  It is a religion of the public space.  A "moderate" Muslim would have to reject Islam as a religion of the public space, as theocracy, and that secularism would be a rejection of Islam. 

Nothing in Islam exists apart from anything else.  While liberals view culture and religion as a buffet that they can pick and choose from, it is a single integrated system.  If you accept one part, you must accept the whole.  Once you accept any aspect of Islam, you must accept its legal system and once you accept that, you must accept its governance and once you accept that, you lose your rights.'' 

What mainstream Islam really teaches, what they believe…
