As a non-Dane living in Denmark since 5 years, and having lived in Sweden before that for 9, I can tell you the idea that I am forming due to the data at hand and anecdotal but first-hand experience:

what from abroad, including within the EU, is seen as the splendid example of Scandinavian society is mostly constructed on small, ethnically and culturally uniform, isolated populations, in which social control is actually seen as natural (like in a small town).

Passing a law in Denmark or Sweden is nothing like having the same iter happen in France or Italy, due to these factors, and justice systems are kept dangerously simple, with no special court for minors in at least civil cases in Sweden and no possibility of one-sided appraisals.

This realities, in the last years, have met with a surge in migration from immigration basins such as Germany, France and Italy, in addition to the influx of people who took the chance of the limited “good gestures” towards the populations of Syria and Afghanistan.

Once you touch those stability factors, the whole thing crumbles, reason why you have Malmö becoming a hellhole and Sweden a narcostate.

From Denmark, a much smaller market than Sweden, gangs such as the Black Cobra were exported across the bridge, only to come biting back in recent years.

The parties that call themselves socialist here in Denmark completely adopted the agenda and the talking points of what elsewhere is called Far Right, which is something I see not as a corruption but as a logic consequence of the above.

You have to think that 10 years ago in Sweden and again when I moved to Copenhagen, I was met with the exchange: “Oh you should move to this area of the city!” “Why, is it a place you recommend?” “Don’t know, but those from your country all move there”

, which is something that horrifies me.

In the same way the big titles in the newspapers about the latest local elections in Copenhagen were on the motif of “Danes always less likely to vote at local elections, which means foreigners will represent a huge portion of the electorate!”

Lately, in Denmark, Hummelgaard, Ministry of Justice, got probably bought up by Palantir, which is why the police uses Gotham and he pushes for a backdoor in encrypted communication .

But apart from that, 5 years ago Fredriksen was attempting her own Madagascar Plan and now she applauds the (actually failed) one deployed in Albania by Meloni, so no need for big tech money to let them talk that shit.

And they are the good ones (I mean, not really, but still better than the actual Right.

Should I call this racism? Maybe, but it would not help to see things clearer.

tl;dr Scandinavia is a simple place. Reality hit with complexity and they panicked.
