We do. You know those schools where Americans put Indians? We had those for Sami people.

We used to sterilize people. Like, nazi Germany thought we were cool.

In fact Sweden has a history of immigration and discrimination.

A long one.

Remember the Vikings? In the 800s? They discovered America, and they raped and pillaged. That is not a figure of speech by the way. They would steal women and children from France and England and hold them as slaves.

Trälar, Thralls.

They lived in horrid conditions.

In fact, I think that the opposite of what you say is true.

A country WITH a history of immigration is better at dealing with it.
