It is very likely that a lot of these policies—especially things like double penalty zones, but not the niqab ban—will run afoul of the ECHR, but the government has already shown its willingness to deliberately ignore their rulings for years and then lie about it to parliament. Given that the Danish People's Party provides them a parliamentary majority of a single seat and have no scruples about violating conventions and accountability law, and that Denmark has no constitutional court, they can keep doing this indefinitely. The last time the the EU tried to sanction a member country (Austria), it lasted only a few months and was an abject failure.

But whether or not these insane measures will actually be implemented as presented, as evidenced they still rocket the Overton window to the far-right.

I mean, the last 15 years of real world politics should give us a pretty good description of what happens when you use the military to try and keep law and order.

Denmark is legitimately one of the most amazing countries on the planet (though probably worse than the rest of Scandinavia at this point), in a wide range of ways; mainly tied to having a strong collective tradition. In terms of health-care, environment, starting businesses, crime, purchasing power (despite the semi-high tax), education, happiness, arts, personal freedom, etc. Denmark is (still) among the greatest places to be. Unfortunately, over the last 20 years, many of the political parties have begun actively trying to dismantle the things that has made it such an unique and great country. Such as the various liberal parties undermining the public sector institutions with an intentional 'starve the beast' strategy. While at the same time the conservo-facists trying to turn the country into an nationalist ethno-state, being in a bidding war of being the most vile in terms of immigration, the most 'tough on crime' and so on, spurred on by a terrible media, who wildly distorts the problems of immigration literally every week.

In addition, the right wing of the social democratic party unfortunately won the internal power-struggle, and since then they've been doing their best to go full-retard on all of the above, combining literally the worst of all the other parties. However, the most damage has probably been done by the right wing political parties deciding to work together Danish Peoples Party, in order to further their own agenda (of dismantling the public sector). This has led to an incredibly fast normalization of racism, leading to more marginalization, which again leads to more extremism, and as the bottom of the social space gets more and more 'brown', also to an increased focus on how crime is done by 'the browns', more militarized police, and as mentioned above, has shifted the Overton window so far towards fascism, it doesn't draw any particular ire to suggest the most disgusting policies on these areas.

Care to elaborate on what is bad in the numbers? At first glance it looks like an overwhelming majority for equal rights and liberty, if you sum yes and no categories.
Not that I disagree with Denmark being the problem.

Too bad they won’t increase the military budget either.
Also, trusting 20 year olds with assault weapons in the middle of an urban environment sounds like a great idea.

I think the point is that the immigrants generally score better. That said, I'm not sure looking at the (current) end-result of two decades of concerted anti-immigrant/Muslim propaganda makes sense in terms of determining the root cause of anti-immigrant sentiments in Denmark.

Score better in opinions is an interesting idea.
That said, the marriage equality question is more split.

And as always, immigrant is a very coarse definition, where the average give little meaning without knowledge of the population composition.
As example, does Scandinavians count as immigrants? Cause like in Sweden that is probably one of the major immigrant groups for Denmark.

Yeah this is a case of pot calling kettle black. It's especially brazen considering that we dropped several ranks in the corruption index, and all the scandals that have been going on lately. I want to say "both sides are bad" but that kind of attitude is what leads to people voting for monsters in the guise of "common sense solutions" and "cleaning up" in politics.

You didn't even read them, did you? Ethnic Danes score worse than immigrants and their children on a wide range of issues that immigrants are routinely lambasted for, including support for religious freedom, gender equality, acceptance of minorities, willingness to pursue higher education and friendships with people outside their own ethnicity, etc. "Parallel societies" is the current mantra of pretty much every party in parliament, but especially the governing ones. The discussion is literally turned on its head. It's also the reason why the average Dane thinks there are three times as many Muslims here than is the case.

Read the study yourself, it's linked in the tweet and outlines the methodology. It's considered representative and was conducted by Danmarks Statistik on behalf of the Ministry of Integration.

Sure, if you only look at the extreme answers. If you look at the positive answers on the whole you get a different picture.

IMO Danes seem to markedly differ from immigrants and their children on The Gays and university education. They found a statistically significant difference between peoples answers to many of the questions, but I don't know that you can equate that to Danes being the problem. A lot of Danes are only now beginning to have personal experiences with immigrants due to the way they're being distributed around the country. It takes time to realize that the picture the media put in your head of immigrants doesn't mesh with reality.

That's considered the ideal for "fully integrated" individuals, is it not? Anyway, the point is it doesn't exactly correspond with the government's framing of existing issues as fortified sharia hellzones full of medieval savages clamouring for kuffar blood.

It would be interesting to compare these numbers with DF voters'. A similar comparison was conducted in 2009 and revealed they were as conservative, if not moreso, than non-western immigrants on a lot of issues like the death penalty and physical discipline.
