Another controversial figure returned to the editorial page of SvD, after a break to write a book. (Is it done??) Arpi is another figure that is not afraid to take the heat for questioning Sweden’s immigration policies – or, if he is afraid, goes ahead and does it anyway. Ivar’s main point is one of scale: the number of new immigrants, most of whom come from cultures that don’t have much in common with Sweden’s, to the number of ”landed Swedes”, is a ratio that leads to problems. He also rails against the fact that saying that aloud and in public makes a lot of people want to tar, feather and run him out of town. These screaming people he says, need to take it down a notch: They are actually in the minority.
No one in Sweden wants to actually belong to a minority (not when it comes down to it) so he can expect more pushback – and likely more support as well.
