The growth of non-western immigrants and descedants has been linearly decreasing for the past many years. Last year we expected that the growth would finally reach below zero, meaning fewer non-westerners. This did indeed happen in 2020, as expected.

It has been 1 year of negative growth but the trend is what's important. We can expect an even greater negative growth in 2021.

    The percentage of Danes (or Whites in general?) is going up while the percentage of non-Danes (or non-whites in general?) is going down?

    Percentage of Danes going up. Non-westerners going down. Westerners also going down. Overall percentage of whites might actually be lower this year than last year, but that's not my concern. As long as non-westerners go down, it is good.

    If I'm interpreting that right and there's no fudging of the numbers then it is a welcome development indeed.

    There is some fudging of the numbers as mentioned in the OP but even then the trend is positive. 3rd gen turks (or whoever) are "danish" but we don't have many of those.

    For example, I've been wondering whether there are many Greenlandic persons in Denmark? After all, these are clearly Asiatic, but for all we know they could be considered 'Danish'.

    It's less than 100k in Denmark overall. I don't know if they are included in the "danish" figure, I would guess yes, I will check next time I do the calculation. We don't have a "greenlandic" problem though :)

    While the demographic thing is the most important (because there is an effective time limit on solving it), there is still a lot of worrisome stuff. Why is this ridiculous cartoon even a thing, for example?

    It is a cultural thing. We are crazy lol, but even so we don't want to be replaced. I will gladly watch John Dillermand if the demographic issues are fixed.
