What the hell is happening in Denmark at the moment??
First forcing the chat control topic upon Europe, now this?
I looked up their government, would have expected far right or so, but it is liberal social democrat...
So what happens here?
The social democrats copied a lot of anti immigration talking points from the right because this seems to be just popular in Denmark. I guess they are just weird.
But these laws are not anti immigration, they are anti freedom in general.
True, my guess is as good as yours. It feels like they paired seemingly good intentions (I mean who is against fighting CSAM right) with a complete lack of technical understanding and proportion. Maybe that’s not a political spectrum kind of think but generational lol. Idk tho it still confuses me how people can be so ignorant to go through with this.
