See here for an article about how Sweden’s elites have turned against the refugees. I first noticed the change, though not really registering it fully, a little over a year ago when Greece began using everything they could to prevent refugees from Turkey from entering, and they seemed to have the full backing of the EU. I wondered what the leftists would think (see here), though I never found out. Also, Macron seemed to be displaying more resistance to Muslims than I would have expected. See here.
More recently, the situation between Belarus and Poland has shown how things have changed, though elites here in America still haven’t gotten the memo and are now accusing European elites of racism (see here).
Now, there was never any announcement of this change. It seems to have happened gradually as more and more people began reporting on problems with these refugees. It would be nice to hear some conversion stories. Or did most leftists all along have misgivings but were afraid to express them?
Anyway, it would be nice to know if there was some one event that changed people’s minds, like the dreadful New Year’s Eve in Cologne a few years back, or just the accumulation of more and more stories about crimes.
