  1. One side:

    * Has strong religion that
    * prefers males and oppresses women.
    * hates all neighbors because they have a slightly different religion.
    * Is in constant trouble because of the hate among the neighbors.
    * Sends exactly the perpetrators of hate and oppression (the males) to us.

    ​

    The other side:

    * Was attacked by a crazy neighbor.
    * Sends the weakest to us (women, kids, elderly).

  2. >When Denmark became the first liberal democracy to tell Syrian refugees to return to their war-torn home in 2019, Russian jets were still dropping missiles in Syria, in an effort to help President Bashar al-Assad’s regime regain control of the country.

    They do know that’s only part of the country right ? Where Denmark was going to send people too was one of the stable areas. Before now Ukrainians weren’t seen as refugees because of a war in the east of the country.

    >But instead of being met by xenophobia, detention centers and threats of repatriation in the European Union, Ukrainian refugees are being welcomed by European nations like Denmark with open arms.

    Did people just forget [the whole “refugees welcome” stuff](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willkommenskultur)? Attitudes were pretty friendly at the start but it was after stuff like Cologne mass assaults, several terrorist attacks, more non-Syrians coming and a civil war with no end in sight that attitudes started to harden.
