hey so denmark is most definitely becoming a nazi nation sooner rather than later. they’ve like done some really fucked up shit, but this might be one of the more messed up things i’ve come across from there.
the government is going to have outlined “ghetto zones” in a legal definition, wherein which they are going to have double punishment for any crime.
these areas will be areas with high populations of muslim, immigrant and worker class people. meaning they are planning to give double the amount of punishment to people for living in poorer neighbourhoods with large amount of minority people.
this is a very transparent act. and they are trying to justify it by claiming it’s about maintaining the safety and peace of the country.
but what it really means is… they are not even trying to hide that the police and prison system is about targeting minorities and poor people now… and it will not surprise me if they use this to escalate the en-masse detainments they’ve had.
Well that’s horrifying
Here are some sources for those who are curious.
These ‘ghetto’ areas are defined (among other criteria) as having more than 50% non-Western immigrant population they are also doing aggressive ethnic assimilation. They explicitly aren’t including white immigrants in this.
And they’re also doing aggressive ethnic assimilation:
The government is also trying to tackle “parallel societies”,
targeting immigrants who resist integration with local Danes, preferring
to stick to their own traditions.The Danish Ministry of Economic
Affairs and Interior says the country has about half a million
inhabitants with non-Western backgrounds – 10 times more than in 1980.It
estimates that 28,000 immigrant families “live in a parallel society”,
and the proportion who do so reaches about 50% in “ghetto areas”. The
largest ethnic groups in that category are Somalis (44%) and Lebanese
(41%), the ministry says.
