I'm not disagreeing that data can be manipulated to support whatever conclusion someone wants it to, or that data is often exploited. But on this particular topic, the correlations have been obvious. It was rare to read about(and nit just from right wing sources) mass rapes, bombings, huge upticks in violent crime, sexual assaults, etc, prior to the 2010's, in aplace like Sweden. It's also known that the government actively tries to surpress data that could paint immigrants in a negative light. I'm not one of these righties who thinks that every immigrant who steps off the boat us looking to exploit/tear down the system any way they can. But there's certainly been pretty noticable examples of that occurring.
Has there been? And has that been proven to be a consequence of immigration?
I'm not saying it isn't because I can't prove it, I'm just pointing out the the "obvious" assumption hasn't been proven yet either.
