Not From Around Here
Want a quick check for how just a society is? How do they treat the different and less powerful.

No word of a lie.
The 'Happiest Country on Earth' also harbours deeply rooted (and deeply disturbing) xenophobia, nationalism, discrimination, and bigotry. The police seem to be a bastion of all of these worst qualities - and no one seems to know, or care.
The liberals live their lives of oblivious comfort, leaving the duty of policing their society to the Right (that is, most political parties in Denmark) as they implement a near universal policy of "Fuck you, I got mine".
Immigrants bear the worst of this, with the police refusing to take complaints from foreigners, almost universally siding with the Dane in any situation involving a foreigner, refusing to speak English (in a country with 80% English literacy), providing false information to immigrants, and a host of other similar behaviours.
This behaviour is not limited to the police by any means. National and local government, healthcare, the courts, education, employment, and advocacy all work, actively, against the immigrant population in all the ways described above.
So, after ten years living in Denmark, praising Denmark, and advocating for Denmark, I have to say: STAY OUT OF DENMARK
It may be one of the top five happiest countries on earth, but not for immigrants. We are the meat that gets ground up to lubricate the wheels of Danish progress. The problem is not Social Democracy - the problem is a concerted effort by the Right to make Denmark just another oligarchy.
But, this is not limited to Denmark - it's everywhere.
In the end, run the dichotomy is not race, or gender, or creed, or nationality. It's the psychopaths and their minions vs. we human beings. The psychopaths are winning. Why do we allow it?
If ever you wondered how the 20th Century War happened, look around you.
Act. Now.
