Stories from Sweden,
the Humanitarian Superpower
# 14

the country that grants the highest number of residence permits to asylum seekers in the EU
and the country with its own view on the word “democracy”


“Sweden is a humanitarian superpower.”
Carl Bildt, Foreign Minister, Sweden

In a press release from
the Swedish government,
the Minister for Integration,
Mr Erik Ullenhag, informs of
the following:

Discarding of the concept of race (Utmönstring av begreppet ras)
The government has instructed Senior Judge Erica Hemtke to investigate whether it is possible to remove the term race, use of people, in various laws and possibly replace it with another expression. The word race is present in more than 20 Swedish regulations.
- The concept of race is outdated and based on the idea that there are different human races. There is no scientific basis to talk about this. Swedish laws should reflect contemporary values ​​and approaches, says Minister for Integration Erik Ullenhag.

Sweden has very serious problems with its schools and its educational system.

Sweden has very serious problems in connwection with the steadily increasing number of asylum immigration.

Sweden has Islamist sympathizers in the Parliament.

Sweden has no culture, no traditions of its own (stated by many prominent people, among them the Prime Minister Mr Fredrik Reinfeldt).

Sweden has no army, no defense.

Sweden has huge problems with failed integration of all the tens of thousands of asylum seekers who have arrived — and are arriving — in the country year after year. (Sweden is the largest receiver of asylum seekers and their relatives in all of EU in spite of its small population of 9,5 million people).

But instead of addressing all these real, acute and huge problems, the Minister for Integration presents a new, never before heard of, idea:

Now let’s see if we can discard the concept of race!

The Minister has decided that:

The concept of race is outdated and based on the idea that there are different human races.

He wants to remove the “concept of race” from all legislative texts and — ultimately — probably from the Swedish language as well. In the same way as Sweden is about to discard/delete the concept of gender since — according to the Swedes: “Gender is just a social construction”.

Sweden still looks quite good to the world — on the surface. But the good looking surface is getting thinner and thinner and soon it will be obvious for one and all that there is very little depth in what the Swedish politicians are doing. Sweden is becoming more and more odd; sometimes even bizarre. And the country differs greatly from other countries (like for example it’s Nordic neighbours), more and more so for every passing day. And those who are still able to think for themselves, are getting increasingly worried about the future of their people and their country.

(By the way: If Sweden decides to abolish the concept of “races”, then, of course, there will be no such thing as “racial discrimination” in the country…)
