    Here’s the thing. The amount of assumptions you make show you aren’t a person who considers the things they think / say. Which means you’re extremely vulnerable to racist rhetoric, and don’t even know it.

    The words you’re using. “People like you.” “Immediately” “ANY”. No, I don’t “immediately” call anything racist. You’re just a very obvious one.

    “Slow-mo train crash sort of way”.

    Yeah, I know lots of people who have been chanting that since, well, forever. Pretty much one step up from the people standing on soap boxes yelling “the end of days is coming.” It never does.

    “I’m using flimsy rationale for my racism so I can’t be racist.”

    Honestly, if I had 1€ every time I hear that…

    For myself, I hope to have finished my education and gotten reasonably far away

    Far away from…? Your country? Do you understand that we live in a global society? There’s a reason those refugees are seeking refuge.

    I too hope to get far away from the Nordics, but not because of some bullshit doomsday scenarios I’m imagining, but because of people like you — people who just refuse to understand there’s a wider world than your little country, that there might be a reason to help people even when it costs you. I’m sure you understand that if your neighbor’s house is on fire, it’s in your interest to help him put it out.
