The Refugee crisis

Japan isn't even on the list. YAY!

Why isn't Sweden or Germany on that list? Sweden took in more refugees per capita than any other country in Europe (considering that we are only 9 million plus to begin with population wise..that's a lot

) There is a difference between welcoming refugees and actually saying "Hey come on in" I think...

That's probably why they aren't on the list lmao

Oi Germany was on that list. Oh well..

Although it is interesting the countries that top the list. Never would have thought about China..although in some wierd way I guess it makes sense.

It's about attitudes, not amount of people taken in. So the list kinda makes sense.

Well the list does say that it lists countries that would accept refugees into their neighborhood or home...so if I am a refugee does this mean I can walk into a person's home in the top countries and pretty much set up camp? Wonderful! Why are they not advertising this list more? It would save a lot of heartache for the ones that come to Sweden and live in temporary camps or shelters.

We British love to virtue signal, even to people carrying clipboards.

And the Chinese are scared not to.

Strange that according to that list 70+% of Australians welcome refugees yet they elected a conservative government with a 'stop the boats' platform. Such a dehumanising term. Not 'stop the human beings fleeing war'.

Is that picture loading for everyone? Not showing for me, I think Imgur is f*cked.
