   @thomasfuchs I'm curious, do you have links to said rants?

   I grow up in Denmark like DHH and I am from the same generation as him, and racism against black people isn't at all comparable to what you see in the States.

   So judging his statements from an American cultural conservative perspective may lead to misinterpreting. I consider his views conservative by Danish standards, but not US.

   (Prejudice against immigrants from Islamic and Baltic counties is an issue in Denmark).

   These people talkin' 'bout how very very ancient slavery was in the US.

   I am 63, and am, patently, and against my better judgement, still alive.

   I knew a man whose parents were African-American slaves in the United States.

   So, from his parent, to him, to me, to you, that's not ancient history, my sister. That's three degrees of difference. That's your great-grandma, that's your congressperson or your senator, that's damned close to being that movie star you're so attached to.
