Summary

DHH uses Denmark's wolf reintroduction as an extended analogy for what he views as ideology-driven policy failures. The wolf population has grown from under 10 in 2020 to roughly 100 today, and sheep deaths have followed exponentially from 78 to 1,285 per year, yet officials only suggest 'more fences.' He then pivots to Copenhagen's decision to legalize overnight sleeping in parks, which he argues has led to Roma encampments that degrade public spaces. Both situations, he claims, stem from the same ideological refusal to act against growing threats. His conclusion is that functioning societies must be willing to cull wolves and deport Roma people as a matter of basic self-preservation.

Key Insight

DHH argues that ideology-driven reluctance to enforce hard limits — whether against predators or unwanted migrants — guarantees exponential harm to the people those limits exist to protect.
