That's a whole lot of words to try and justify racism.

    Reasonable immigration policy is not racism, you're a part of the problem that's fueling the far right.

    Just so everyone knows what 'reasonable' immigration policies Denmark has that this guy is touting, they're all hardline far-right immigration policies.

    Highlights include stealing all valuables from asylum seekers and leaving them with literally fucking nothing to 'justify paying for their stay,' rejecting asylum applicants if their specific area of their country is not actively under attack (because wars NEVER spread to involve other sections of the same country), any municipality with too high of a population of migrants is deemed a ghetto and demolished, the government attempted to house all immigrants on an isolated island whose only other purpose was a centre for contagious animals (I wish I was making this up), etc etc. The UN officially considers Danish immigration policies to be 'incompatible' with human rights, and to disproportionately impact racial and ethnic minorities.

    Denmark doesn't have far right parties gaining power on the back of immigration rhetoric because they've already achieved it.

    This is just racism, and don't let anyone concern troll you into thinking otherwise.

    Denmark's immigration policies aren't some secret, they're actually very transparent and straightforward. You and everybody else can read them on the official Danish websites or get a summary of them on Wikipedia:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_Denmark#Features_of_the_present_Danish_asylum_system_(2023)

    As you can see, nothing here is racist or far right. This is just bullshit fearmongering on your part. If anything, I would argue that these policies are actually reasonable. Calling the Danish left wing parties far right demonstrates that you're too out of touch for this conversation. Going completely brain dead and blindingly screaming racism at any sort of immigration policy isn't left wing politics, that's just being childish.

    You realize you literally just linked a page that verifies everything I said wrong with the Danish system, right? And I didn't call Danish left wing parties far right, I called the immigration policy far-right.

    Take your sealioning elsewhere.

    You calling it so doesn't make it so. The stats back the notion that Denmark has a successful model compared to the rest of Europe.
