Has anyone done a write-up on these anti-masker anti-lockdown movements that are popping up? The ones in Denmark seem to be a particularly dumb jumble of football hooligans, various conspiracy nuts and veterans. Several people have been charged with threatening the PM after publicly burning an effigy with the words "She should and must be executed" on it.

Also for some reason none of them are being charged for covering their faces as they protest masks.

Last year's COVID laws doubled the penalty for covering your face during a criminal act.

Impeachment proceedings against the former Danish Minister of Integration have begun, charged with ordering her officials to break the law and subsequently lying to parliament. Probably gonna end up as a nothingburger with at best a slap on the wrist. The Social Democrats have remarked that she "did the right thing, politically", but ended up voting for impeachment anyway. The case is about breaking up asylum seeker couples where one partner was a minor, what she insistently calls "child brides", but instead of reviewing each case individually as prescribed by human rights conventions, she ordered her officials to break up everyone without review. In one instance, this led to a suicide attempt when a pregnant 17-year-old was separated from her 19-year-old husband. Indeed, in all but a few cases the age differences were hardly of concern, and some had actually specifically fled forced marriages, but all that is irrelevant—they could have been legally separated from one another if there had been individual review. Confronted with the fact that she'd given this illegal instruction, she decided to lie to parliament repeatedly and to the Ombudsman. Now she has hilariously been thrown under the bus by her own party, who stood firmly by her from the beginning, but have now for the most part voted for her impeachment. I cannot stress how awful this woman is. The first deportations she was responsible for were a pair of teenaged orphan Hazara brothers sent back to Afghanistan, and the younger one was immediately and brutally murdered by the Taliban. Now she's defending herself by saying her crime was "for the good of the children".

Orange Devil posted:Was this minister a prison warden before becoming a minister by any chance? No, she was editor of a small, local newspaper for short while, then climbed the party ladder to Minister of Employment and was almost immediately outed for lying about her education. She got her second ministerial gig by race baiting relentlessly and continued those efforts as minister, for example installing an immigration clamp-down counter on the official ministry website and celebrating with cake when it reached 50 (a move that earned her the moniker "Trumpine" in Bild). She was also the single most popular minister in recent history by a wide margin and will no doubt continue her shtick in some other party regardless of impeachment.

Even better was when she marched to Blågårds Plads surrounded by cops and scolded an immigrant kid for taking a year off from school to work. She herself was 40 before finishing some bullshit business degree to pad her otherwise lacklustre résumé. She also tried to have some teenage girls arrested for calling her a fascist during the same photo op.

Due to its rotation principle, the socialist-identifying Unity List has chosen yet another (young, white, conventionally attractive) spokeswoman and she's extremely into Harry Potter. As of this year the party gave up its otherwise staunch opposition to immigration restrictions, leaving exactly nobody in the Danish parliament on the side of immigrant rights.

I mean, yeah, what people consider "U.S. culture" is thoroughly diseased, but it will never be not funny to see Europeans hold up the U.S. as somehow uniquely racist in comparison. All you gotta do is mention Roma and the average European immediately morphs into Oskar Dirlewanger.

And that's not to pretend nobody's racist here, it's just that besides the "Zwarte Piet is fine, actually" stuff 99% of the racism I see is targeted at islamic people, especially Moroccans. The phenomenon has lessened a bit after each European nation independently revived fascism, but it's definitely a thing. I personally live in one that reviles Roma even more than Muslims and we're renowned for really, really hating Muslims, like, a lot.

To show exactly how duplicitous the Social Democrats are, here's a direct quote from now-PM Mette Frederiksen in 2015 when refugees were arriving in droves from Syria: "The time when you could get away with tokenism and proposals for camps in Kenya, immediately slamming the brakes and quick fixes, is over." Then they immediately voted for robbing refugees of their cash and valuables, and now here we are. Although they did scrap the previous government's plans for a billion-kroner camp on a small island, currently under biological quarantine as a defunct animal disease research facility, where the only mainland connection is a ferry literally named Virus. Funny thing is the minister responsible for the Rwanda project is himself the child of an Ehtiopian refugee. He has also jumped party three times, starting out as a member of the Communist Party (M/L), then the Unity List (which began as a collection of various revolutionary socialist parties), then the Socialist People's Party (whose founder was a CIA informant lol), and then finally the Social Democrats, after he failed to establish himself in either of the others.

All the Danish right-wing parties and the governing Social Democrats (but I repeat myself) in parliament just basically threatened freedom of research by passing a resolution openly accusing universities of pushing politics masquerading as science. The resolution was proposed by Morten Messerschmidt, a convicted racist currently under police investigation for fraud with EU funds, and sociologist Henrik Dahl, who insisted he was a reasonable center-leftist until he ran for the libertarian party, his latest grift was selling anti-idpol lapel pins.

Some dude killed five people in Norway with bow and arrow and the comments sections are having a hell of a time deciding if it's terrorism, because he's a white Muslim convert and also has long history of severe mental illness. And of course the police were already aware of him, his neighbours avoided him, his parents had a restraining order against him for violent threats involving a firearm, and his friend specifically warned police years ago that he might do something terrible. Nothing to be done.

A Buttery Pastry posted:That's everything from pimping to renting out a hotel room covered. Like, you don't even have to have any relation to the prostitute, if you rent out a room where they intend to gently caress a costumer you might end up in jail. It's literally just a question of whether you can answer yes "Do you make money off of other people loving clients for money, in any way?". If you can, you're breaking the law. Doesn't seem to be how the law is applied, though, IIRC there are independent sex workers renting houses together and stuff. Certainly there are commonly known brothels that don't get shut down, not just "massage parlours".

Denmark's former Integration Minister was impeached under the Ministerial Responsibility Act and gets 60 days, but will probably serve with an ankle monitor. Might be declared unfit for parliament as well. There goes her dreams of leading the Danish People's Party for the time being. Funny that the two most popular choices for the position right now are convicted criminals. Her first official act was deporting two orphaned teenage Hazara brothers to Afghanistan where the younger one was almost immediately murdered. She also celebrated immigration restrictions with cake. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/12/13/danish-ex-minister-gets-prison-term-for-splitting-migrant-couples

Nitevision posted:What on earth is going on over in Denmark right now. I know there was a strong reactionary streak in the country's politics building steam for a while but, what is going on over there right now To clarify, the Hazara brothers had their application rejected under Social Democrat rule, their deportation was just effectuated right after she came into office. They were interviewed shortly before that and the kid explained how he hoped against hope that he'd be allowed to stay and one day become a doctor. She will be declared unfit for parliament on Tuesday and won't be able to serve with an ankle monitor unless she finds employment. The Danish People's Party has reneged on the clearing agreement and is therefore forcing all MPs to vote in person as Omicron demolishes the country.  The current Social Democrat Integration Minister, himself the son of an Ethiopian refugee, chose the week of her conviction to propoose violating conventions again by revoking citizenship for certain crimes.
