I recalled reading something about what the idiot Swedes were doing and after a bit of searching I found it again. They're simply going to pretend that race doesn't exist, up and down, through their society. These guys are totally buying into the notion that race is a social construction - I suppose that they've thrown all their
population geneticists into prison or something.
"We know that different human races actually do not exist," Swedish Integration Minister Erik Ullenhag told
Sveriges Television (SVT).
"We also know that the fundamental grounds of racism are based on the belief that there are different races, and that belonging to a race makes people behave in a certain way, and that some races are better than others." . . .
Oscar Pripp, associate professor of ethnology at Uppsala University, welcomed the idea. He said that the concept of race is necessary to understand people's social behaviour, but that it is not necessary in law.
"It sounds rather sensible," Pripp told The Local. "Not to scrap the word entirely, but that it should not be included as a concept in legislation, because then you're saying that there are indeed different races."
Pripp went on to say that race in and of itself does not exist, but is rather something that is "done" in society, such as in the labour market, housing market, and other areas.
So I had asked you about counter-moves. Here's one:
The proposal has come under sharp criticism, however, from the National Afro-Swedish Association (Afrosvensarnas Riksförbund, ASR).
"This scientific racism that Ullenhag is focused on, when he says that racism is based on believing in different races, is not true," Kitimbwa Sabuni, spokesperson for the ASR, told The Local.
"How many people in Sweden really think that way? Maybe 100. That's not the problem. Racism existed before the concept of race biology. Scientific racism is just one chapter in the story of race and racism."
Sabuni concurred that race is a social construction, but from there his views diverged.
"Just because it's a social construction doesn't mean it's not a reality," Sabuni said. "For us, this is just trying to take away the possibility to even talk about it. It's critical."
And here is the crux of the objection.
"How can you apply for a grant for fighting racism if the concept of race doesn't exist in legislation? Racism will disappear de facto from the agenda. The government is lost in a fantasy, a fantasy which counteracts effective work against racism."
So for the Swedes all this racial talking and the problems arising from multiculturalism are causing all sorts of social strife. The Swedes just want it to go away and they believe that by not talking about it, but stressing similarity and making it difficult to talk about differences, that the problems will indeed go away. However, those from the invader-class living in Sweden get a lot of benefit from talking about differences. The more they make Swedes feel guilty about differences in outcomes, the more money they can get for themselves and their projects designed to extort even more money.
I don't know if this is similar to what you're proposing but the Swedes really have an aversion to talking about race and this is actually now corrupting science. This is serious business because it involves willfully closing the eyes of scientists such that they don't dare acknowledge the genetic basis of race because it runs counter to the liberal notion that race is just a figment of our imaginations.
Here is a report of new research published in Sweden which investigates the rapid increase of male babies being born with deformed penises. The researchers state that they've tried to find the cause and they are baffled as to what is going on.
A condition which causes baby boys to be born with deformed penises is becoming more common in Sweden, for reasons unknown to
scientists.
Researchers in Sweden assessed data collected on Hypospadias between 1973 and 2009. They found that before 1990, only 4.5 boys out of every thousand had the condition known as hypospadias. But after 1990, the figure had risen to 8 per 1000 boys.
In an attempt to explain the rise, the experts from Stockholm's Karolinksa Institute considered factors known to cause the defect, including low-birth weight, being born a twin, and parents who used IVF treatment to conceive.
However, scientists could not link the rise to any previously known causes, and instead concluded that an unknown factor was behind the trend, The Local reported.
They purposely avoid looking at the genetics of race, so I'm going to solve the puzzle for you because I always look at population variance when I read such
studies. Have the demographics of Sweden changed over time? They can't look at that, but I sure can.
Hypospadias in Istanbul: Incidence and risk factors
Out of 1750 boys examined, 34 had hypospadias, that is, the frequency was 19.4 per 1000 male live-births
If you purposely close your eyes to the genetics of race, you are left willfully stupid. I don't have a clue how far you propose to take your solution of stressing similarities and avoiding discussing differences, but the Swedes are blazing a path forward and other than making them willfully stupid and a laughingstock, I highly doubt that this tactic will solve their racial problems.
