https:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/2026\/04\/model-immigrants-no-more-swedens-elderly-care-nightmare\/<\/a><\/p> Faced with a surplus of unemployable migrants and a shortage of carers, many municipalities turned elderly care into an unofficial jobs program, creating caregiving positions and hiring migrants \u2014 mostly men \u2014 who could not find work elsewhere. The number of migrants working with the elderly quickly became a point of pride on the left. Migrants in care occupations were held up as model immigrants taking on jobs that Swedes wouldn\u2019t do. But now, an official investigation into rapes of the elderly has found that most nonmarital rapes since 2021 were committed by Hemtj\u00e4nst carers or staff at municipal nursing homes. Most of the perpetrators are migrants, and some have even recorded or photographed their crimes on their phones. Municipalities have in several instances been complicit in covering up cases or attempting to silence victims. In some cases, caregivers reported for rape have been reassigned but allowed to continue working with other patients. Why is this? First, politicians may naturally fear political backlash when individuals held up as \u201cmodel immigrants\u201d are then implicated in serious crimes. Left-wing politicians in municipalities with large foreign populations also tend to rely on minority votes to stay in power, making them especially reluctant to confront migrant crime.<\/p> Policymakers are understandably worried that voters may link these rapes to another new form of crime Swedes have dubbed \u201cf\u00f6rnedringsr\u00e5n\u201d \u2014 \u201chumiliation robbery\u201d \u2014 where the aim is not merely theft but the humiliation of the victim. Migrant youth gangs will target ethnic Swedish teenagers, rob them of their possessions, and force them to perform degrading acts, often while recording. In one case, a 16-year-old Somali migrant forced an eight-year old boy to strip naked and do push-ups after seizing his bike. In police interviews, the 16-year-old claimed he did it because the child looked like he would vote for the national-conservative Sweden Democrats in the future. There are eerie similarities between these robberies targeting the young and the sexual assaults targeting the old. Even though authorities still refuse to treat crimes against Swedes as hate crimes, these rapes and robberies are nevertheless viewed by many Swedes as a way for the perpetrators to send a message: This is not your country anymore.<\/p> https:\/\/archive.ph\/rwtg9<\/a><\/p>","generator":{"id":"tag:gnusocial.jp,2026-05-06:notice-source:ActivityPub","objectType":"application","status_net":{"source_code":"ActivityPub"}},"id":"https:\/\/spinster.xyz\/objects\/60f60355-ffb4-422f-a589-53f94deda97f","object":{"id":"https:\/\/spinster.xyz\/objects\/60f60355-ffb4-422f-a589-53f94deda97f","objectType":"note","content":"
