Denmark plans to limit 'non-western' residents in disadvantaged areas
www.theguardian.com
Interior ministry’s proposed limit of 30% part of bill to crack down further on poor neighbourhoods

This law would limit neighbourhoods to 30% "non-western" immigrants, which definitely means non-white. And then apparently they also have proposed laws for doubling the punishment for crimes committed in predetermined ghettos that are made up of mostly immigrants. Is this what "Scandinavian Socialism" means?

    Goddamn thanks for the write up that's really interesting. It really goes to show how dangerous compromising positions in regards to issues like this can be. I hope some sort of left movement can break this trend before it gets even worse but I won't hold my breath.

      A while ago a user here wrote an article with a mathematical proof of how centrist triangulation is a losing strategy. I think Denmark is a very good example of that.

        I can't think of a single country in Europe that ISN'T a good example of this. The US too.
